SAYS BALLINGER

Secretary Severely Criticised by the
Florida Senator

Washington, D. c., Jan. Ex-senator
Fletcher of Florida, a member of the
linger-Pinchot investigating COM
mittee, addressed the Senate yesterday
in support of the Purcell resolution,
declaring that Secretary Ballinger
should longer be retained in office.
In further indictment of the secre-
tary, he said that Secretary Ballinger
is not a man best fitted for the office
he holds; that his conduct, associa-
tions, and influence justly aroused the
suspicion that he has been and is in
clined to favor private interests
rather than care for those of the pub

Don't Forget Vote Offer

The best time for securing votes
will be during the extra vote offer
which is now in effect. This offer
gives every candidate a fair and equal
chance to secure votes and those who
fail to take advantage of the offer will
be throwing away the best chance of
the race.
The idea of the contest is to increase
the circulation of the Star, obviously,
and to this end candidates should
strive to get new subscriptions to the
paper. The Star has made an excel
lent offer to the aspirants and they
certainly will go after them with a re-
newed yigOr
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1911-01-20

No time can be lost by those striv-
ing for the priZes-only the regular
number of votes viii be issued as the
orders are turned in. and all extra
votes will be made out and given each
contestant after the close of the vote
offer. January 2Sth. The extra ballots
of 10000 will be given for each club
of five six months subscribers. Five
yearly subscribers will make two
clubs since yearly subscription
counts as two siX-months'.
The necessity for active work dur
ing this period cannot be too strangly
emphasized from the fact that more
votes will be given from the orders
turned in now than ever before.
Some Plano News
The plate of the Hallet & Davis
piano is what is technically known as
a full metal plate. The Hallet & Da-
Wis piano is strong where strength in
a piano means rigidity. It is excel
lent in action where action means re-
sponsivness. The plate will stand any
amount of strain.
The tuning pins, to which are at
tached the wires. are sunk into the
metal frame in such a way that they
do not touch the metal which wouli
be ruinous. Each hole is lined with
wood into which the pin is frnl:-
driven. II gets all of the unyieldin q
| strength of the metal and is insulated
| by the wood so that the quality OF the
sound is not affected.
The action of the Hallet & Davis
! piano is world-famous. 1t is what We
| call a grand piano action, and i ne
action which makes the grand piano
what it is. carefully and skillfully
utilized in an upright case. Every
| pianist will appreciate this point. The
| action responds to the most delicate
| touch. 1t is almost a living instru-
ment, interpreting the expression OF
| all players. These are the two great
points about the Hailet & Davis piano
| II is an easy matter 10 see why 50
many popular young women are COM
peting for this splendid instrument. "a

practically four weeks work. We call

Some Suspicious Persons
Enqured if we were hiring" a certain weekly" paper to abuse US:

So an attorney from New York spent more or less time for
months in Battle Greek hoping to find impurities in our foods, or
dirt in the factories. After treess spying about he summoned
twenty-five of our workmen and took their testimony. Every
single one testified that the foods are made of exactly the grain and
ingredients printed on the packages; the wheat, barley and corn
being the choicest obtainable-an thoroughly cleaned-th water of
the purest, and every part of the factories and machinery kept
scrupulously clean:
That all proved disappointing to the Weekly" There are
very few factories, hospitals, private or hotel and restaurant kit
chens that could stand the close spying at unexpected times and by
an enemy paid to find dirt or impurities of some kind.
In any ordinary kitchen or factory he would find something to
magnify and make a noise about.
But he failed utterly with the Postum Works and products:
Twenty to thirty thousand people 60 through the factories annual
" and we never enquire whether they are there to spy or not. 1t
makes no difference to US.
He next turned to discover something about our advertising
that could be criticized.
An analysis of the methods and distorted statements of the
Weekly" may interest some readers, so we take up the items one
by one and open them out for inspection. We will chain up the
harsh words and make no reference in this article to the birth,
growth and methods of the weekly" but try to couhne the dis
cussion to the questions now at issue.
The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1911-01-19

in due time. We suggest the reader look
for it.
PrevarIcation No. 8. Post spends
nearly a million a year in advertising and
relies on that to keep out of the news,
papers the dangerous nature Of the fraud
he Is perpetrating on the public"
The Postum Company does pay out up
wards of a million a year for trade an
n~ouncements. Newspaper men believe our
statements truthful or they would not
print them. Large numbers of newspa-
per men use our products.
They are copable Of tclling the public
whcther or not we "bribe2 them.
II may nave escaped notice that we
did not "bribe" that particular weekly.
No.. 9 states that the amount of the
verdict will BE devoted by the weekly
to exnos;n2 f-amd."
This is almost real humor.
We have W suits pending against the
weekly" total, $500, 10000.
We haven't "devoted' the sum to any
particular purpose yet.
Item 10 is a discovery" that wheat
bran is a part of Postum.
But the criticism neglected to mention
that for years every Postum package an
nounced in plain type that the outer
ering Of wheat (bran), made part - :
beverage.
They ignorantly fell into a ,,ap here,
not knowing enough of food value TO know
that 'faka-Diastasc' the article used by
physicians the world over for Starch in
digestion" is made from wheat bran"
50 we use that part of the wheat berry
because it contains the element needed
IN HGynlpn tho y,l,taI1a IiaCtoga in man
ufacture. Good Postum is impossible
without this part.
These self-appointed critics do make
some laughable blunders through ignor.
ance, bnt-be patient.
Item II is an illustration of the squirm-
ing and twisting of the sensational writer
delivering distorted matter to his read
eTs.
While on the witness stand Mr.. Post
testified to his studies in Anatomy, Physi-
ology, Dictetics and PsychUlogy,-all re.
lating TO the preparation and digestion 81
food. Asked to name authorities studied
he mentioned six or eight from memory,
and commented on some clinical X
rience covering several years in annual
journeys TO Europe.
Now notice the distortion. (Copy from
the printed criticism.)
lie POST pointed out a pile of books
in possession of his attorneys as the very
ones he had read"
(Notice.-"the very ones he had read"
leading the reader to believe that they
were the only ones.)
did you consult the books from these
editions" was asked.
Prom those and various editions" an.
swered Post.
The attorney picked up book after
book from the pile and showed the title
pages TO the iury,-all except two had
been published since 1905"
This is an example of distortion and
false c~oloring to produce an unfavorable
impression.
The facts are Mr.. Post purposely intro
duced the latest editions that could be
obtained of prominent authorities TO prove
by them the truth Of his statements re-
garding appendicitis and the analysis of
brain, also the latest conclusions in re-
gard to the action of the digestive organs.

OF course every time a spot light is turned on from any source
kofers a splendid chance to talk about the merits Of the products,
but pom honor now, w e ar not hiring that Weekly"
The general reader seldom cares much for the details of scraps"
A few may have read lately some articles attacking US and may
be interested in the following
Some time ago a disagreement arose with a Weekly" They
endorsed our foods by letter, but wanted to change the form Of
advertising, to which we objected.
The Weekly" discontinued inserting our advertisements while
they were negotiating for some changes they wanted in the word
ing and shape of the advertisements, and during this correspondence
on manager gave instructions to our Advertising Department to
quit advertising altogether in that Weekly"
Quite a time after the advertising had been left out, an editorial
attack came. We replied in newspapers and the scrap was on.
Then came libel suits from both sides, and some harsh words.
Generally tmesome to the public.
That Weekly" has attacked many prominent men and repu-
table manufacturers.
Our Company seems prominent enough for a sensational
writer to 60 after, hunt for some little spot to critHise, then distort,
twist and present il to the public under scare heads.
