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 d~iastase
in he barley which changes the starch
into a most digestible sugar.
~ phosphates also, placed up un-
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 p%hosphates are necessary to
the well-balanced building of muscle,
brain and nerve cells.
Il have used Grape-Nuts," writes an
Iowa man, "for 8 years and feel as
good and am stronger than I was ten
years ago.
Among my customers I meet q man

Grape-Nuts and Postum which he has

Roosevelt Carried Primaries Once.

The Chicago Inter-Ocean, crgan Of
ali that is reactionary n vicious in

does in his paragraph:
i Most states now a direct primary

didate can take any party name that
pleascs him. They also afford voters
facilities for changing their party labels.
What prevents Colonel Roosevelt from
calling himself a republican," candidate?
What prevents the 100000 voters, mostly
republicans, who marked their ballots for
him in 1912 from doing so at the primaries
in 1916? Thus he could get the nominal
ton without any Reputation of principles.

cal dream of our safe and sane neighbor

republican primaries is TO capture the re-
publican nomination In 1916.

vention of June a year ago Colonel Roose-
welt entered ths republican primaries, de-
feated Taft Overwhelmingly wherever
there was a popular vote in all the great
republican states, and yet the national
committee ava the nomination to Mr.,
Taft.
The present national committee has not
only perpetuated but increased the power
it held in 1912 to steal a presidential nom
nation. Omttting, as the Inter Ocean SO
ch%eerfully does, all account of the morals
Of its little scheme, is 1t natural to expect
that the men who stole the n~otaination
from Roosevelt in 1912 would he more

Mississippi Choctaw
Indians Seek Rights

One of the most bitter fights in Con-
gress over Indian administrative af-
fairs is impending in the House over
the question as to whether between
1000 and 1900 Choctaw Indians resid-
ing in Mississippi shall be covered In
to" the Choctaw tribe.
1t was learned today that subcom-
mittee of the House Indian Affairs
Committe has favorably reported the
Harrison bill to give the Mississippi
Choctaws full tribal membership and
rights. This means that each Mississip-
pi Choctaw is entitled to share or
the Choctaw nations wealth, about
5000 each.
Congressman Carter of Oklahoma is
fighting the bill on behalf of the Okla
homa Choctaws. They are opposed to
division of their wealth with the Mis-
sissippi Indians. The latter, however.
are supported on the ground that they
were ignorant OF their rights years AGO
and did not know they were required
to 20 to Indian Territory to share in
the allotments Of land and Govern
meht money.
A final vote will be taken next Fri
day by the committee.
