the matter to my grocer one day and
he suggested that l. give Postum q

Next day 1t came, but the cook
made the mistake of not boiling it suf-
ficiently, and we did not like it much.
This was, however, soon remedied,
and now we like 1t SO much that we

good American citizens watching a
governmental change ordered in &C
cordance with the law and the Con-
stitution
The Bible which during each sue
cessive four years is kept as one of
the treasures of the Supreme court,
was the immediate instrument of the
oath taking OF Woodrow Wilson. Ed
ward Douglass White, chief Justice of
the United States. held the Book for
Mr.. Wilson to rest his hands upon
while he made solemn covenant to
support the Constitution and the laws
of the United States, and to fulfill the
duties of his office as well and as
faithfully as it lay within his power
to do.
Thomas Riley Marshall swore feal-
ty to the Constitution and to the
people in the senate chamber, where
for four years it will be his duty to
preside over the deliberations of the
members of the upper house of con-
gress.
Ceremonies Simple and Impressive.
4 Both of the ceremonies proper were
conducted in a severely simple but
most impressive manner. The sur
roundings Of the scene of the presi-
dents induction into office, however,
were not SO simple, for it was an out
of-door event and the great gathering
of military, naval and uniformed civil
organizations gave much more than a
touch of splendor to the scene.

vice-president of the United States,

people. all that the upper house will
contain without the risk of danger
because of the rush and press Of the
multitudes. 1t is probable that no.
where else in the United States at
any time are there gathered an equal
number of men and women whose
names are SO widely known. The
gathering in the senate chamber and
later on the east portico of the capt.

prominent for their services in Amer
lea, and in part OF foreigners who
have secured places for their names
in the current history of the worlds
doings.
% Arranged by Congress.
The arrangements of the ceremonies
for the Inauguration of Woodrow Will
son and Thomas Riley Marshall were
made by the joint committee on ar
rangements of congress. The senate
section of this committee was ruled
by a majority of Republicans, but
there is Democratic testimony to the
fact that the Republican senators
were willing to outdo their Democratic
brethren in the work of making or
derly and impressive the inaugural
ceremonies in honor of two chieftains
of the opposition.
President Taft and President-elect
Wilson rode together from the White
House to the capitol, accompanied by
two members of the congressional
committee of arrangements. The vice
president-elect also rode from the
White House to the capitol and in the
carriage with him were the senates

of Georgia, and three members of the
