Much depends on the start man gets
each day, as to how he may expect to

some food combination that would not
overload the stomach in the morning,
but that would produce energy.
He writes;
"For years [ was unable TO find n
breakfast food that had nutrition
enough to sustain business man with

new man; can work without firing, my
head is clear and my nerves strong and
quiet.
"I find four teaspoonfuls of Grape
Nuts with one of sugar and a small
quantity of cold milk, is delicious as

Woodrow Wilson has been accused
more than once. before and since he
became President, of playing politics.
but nobody will accuse him of playing
the game in his appointment of Ed
ward Billings as collector of the port OF
Boston. For the first time in the his
tory of the eollectorshir it has been
lifted out of the slough of narrow par
tisanship and placed upon splendid
pedestal of broad non partisanship.
II Is an interesting experiment, ana
in making 1t the President has select
ed excellent material Whether he will
continue along the same line in decia-
ing upon other important Boston APP
pointments remains To he seen. lie

Twisting the Language.

Baby talk is highly developed Ian

can housewives talk to their Filipino
house boys. But 1t usually conveys the
meaning when accompanied by express
sive gestures. At best, however, the
performance of the command speaks
we'll for native institution.
Spanish construction of English
words is another twist that eur poor
language gets in the Philippines. No
got in tie island is the most common
ly used expression for 4 haven't any.
Similarly no can do means 4 cant.
and no want means Il don't want
it," Not only between American and
Filipino, hut among Americans them
selves, this twisted construction has
largely supplanted the legitimate one.

longed peculiarly to the Philippines
