HADN'T TOLD ANY UNTRUTE
coIored Witness Simply Stated a Fact,
Though 1t Was Not the Informa-
ton Desired.

In st. Louis a stout colored woman,
apparently about forty years old, was
called as a witness in an assault case
before a police judge. She said: 81
am ~eighty-four and / live down near
the river, and this is what saw when
the fight took place."
She then gave her account of the
assault.
On cross-examination the attorney
for the defense asked her when and
where she was born, and she replied:
Right here in st. Louis, in July,

umphant tone. what do you mean

HAPPY OLD AGE
Most Likely to Follow Proper Eating.

AS old age advances we require less
food to replace waste, and food that
will not overtax the digestive organs,
while supplying true nourishment.
Such an ideal food is found in Grape
Nuts, made of whole wheat and barley
by long baking and action Of diastase
in the barley which changes the starch
into a most digestib2e sugar.
The phosphates also, placed up I'M
der the outer-coat of the wheat, are
included in Grape-Nuts, but are lack
ing in white flour because the outer
coat of the wheat darkens the flour
and Is left out by the miller. These
natural phosphates are necessary to
the well-balanced building of muscle,
brain and nerve cells.
81 have used Grape-Nuts," writes an
Iowa man, for 8 years and feel as
good and am stronger than l was ten
years ago.
Among my customers I meet a man
every day who is we'll along in years
and attributes his good health to
Grape-Nuts and Postum which he has
used for the last 5 years. He mixes
Grape-Nuts with Postum and says
they go fine together.
For many years before l began to
eat Grape-Nuts, l could not say that |

Roosevelt Carried Primaries Once.

The Chicago lnter-Ocean, organ of
all hat is reactionary and vicious in
public life for a quarter of a century,
may have changed it's spots lately, but
it is under suspicion instantly that it
begins to coo to Colorel Roosevelt as it
does in this paragraph:
Most states now have direct primary
nomination laws. Under these laws a can
pleases him. They also afford voters
facilities for changing their party labels.
What prevents Colonel Roosevelt from
calling himself a republican candidateY
What prevents the 100000 voters. mostly
republicans, who marked their blllots for
him in 1912 from doing so at the primaries
In 1876? Thus he could get the nomina
ton without any reputation of principles.
1t moves the Chicago Evening Post
to say:
The main point Of this wonderful politi-
cal dream of our safe and sane neighbor
is that Colonel Roosevelt by entering the
republican primaries is to capture the re-
publican nomination In 1916.
Has the Inter Ocean conveniently for
gotten 1912? Before the republican con-
vention of June a year ago Colonel Roose-
welt entered tina republican primaries, de-
feated' Taft Overwhelmingly wherever
there was a popular vote in an the great
republican states, and yet the national
committee gava the nomination to Mt.
Taft.
The present national committee has not
only perpetuated but increased the powers
it held in 1912 to steal a presidential nom
nation. Omitting, as the Inter Ocean so
cheerfully does, all account of tho morals
of its little scheme, is it natural to expect
that the men who stole the nomination
from Roosevelt in 1912 would lie more
| ~squealnish about repeating the trick in
1916?
As to our esteemed contemporaries pre-
sentation Of the boom of Charles E.
Hughes, we seem to recall that the JUS
tice resolutely refused to throw his hat
into the ring last year. Are the repub-
lican prospects to be more tempting to
the judicial bornot in 1916?
