others. 1t is easy to get. Any gro

Quaker Oats
Just the Big, Luscious Flakes Alone

In every bushel of oats there are
big grains and little -puny grains
and plump.
The big grains alone have that
luscious flavor which folks love in
oats. So we pick them out, discarding
all others. A bushel of choice oats
yields but ten pounds of Quaker.
That's the reason for these big,
white fakes. That's the reason for
this wondrous flavor. From all the
world over the lovers of oats send
to US to get it.

caused by the lack of proper employ
ment to the many who really want
to work. AS you say, the many in
situations which already exist do not
seem to reach as far as they should
with their assistance.
An organization such as you men
ton would certainly do the work if it
was so organized that the help which
came in went entirely to the proper
sources and not toward fitting up ele-
CANT offices, salaries, etc. If the prop
er people were connected, so as to
make an impression favorably with
business men, free employment bu-
reau could be established which
would place hundreds of men who
otherwise could not even get hear
ing. ....
There are doubtless many other
benefits which would arise as the
thing progressed. Should anything
of this sort be undertaken would
gladly offer my serVices,-Max Jes-
selson, 49,.

SUGGESTS NEW IDEA

Editor Day Book read quite
few articles in The Day Book about
taxing vacant lots so to cause more
building. Now if that should happen
what would become of all the vacant
flats? There are thousands of va
cant flats in the city now.
Now, would it not be better idea
if some of the old buildings in the
loop, which are firetraps, and the old
wooden frame houses in the lower
west side, which are a disgrace to
Chicago, be condemned and more
modern structures be put up in their
places? am not an owner of vacant
lots or any other kind of property

PLEAS FOR PROHIBITION.
Dry Forces Appear Before House
Committee.

Washington, April 15.-Prohibitior
advocates today presented to tho
house judiciary committee arguments
in support of a constitutional amend
out the United States. They urged
the committee to report to the house
tho resolution of Representative Hob
son OF Alabama providing for the
submission to the States for ratifica-
ton of constitutional amendment
directed against the sale or manufac-
ture for sale Of all alcoholic liquors
for beverage purposes.
For three hours men and women
representing States all over the East
presented their arguments and told
o. the progress Of the prohibition
fight. Tomorrow they will appear be-
fore the subcommittee OF the senate
judiciary committee in charge OF the
prohibition resolution.
Led by Representative HObSon, the
prohibitionists argued that they SIM
ply were appealing for an opportunity
to present to the people OF the country
through the State legislatures a def
mite referendum on the liquor ques-
ton. They declared that, without
reference to the merits Of the oues-
tion. the problem had grown to such
proportions that it justified such
action. With 55 per cent of the peo-
pie OF the country living i'm prohibi-
tion territory, they asserted, the time
had come for the submission of the
question on broad national basis.

CALL OFF COPPER STRIKE.
Claim All Demands Except RecOg-
Diticn Of Union Have Been Complied
With.

Hancock, Mich. April 13.-Copper
mine workers who have Oeen striking
since July %, last, voted yesterday
to call off the strike, according to
announcement made today by Charles
E. Heitela, district secretary of the
Western Federation of Miners. The
figures will not be given out until
after a meeting of the district board
this afternoon.
Recognition OF the union. denied
by the mining companies, is waived
by the strikers in voting to return
to work, They clair" that practically
all of their other demands have been
complied with since the strike began
These included better working con-
ditions, an eight-hour day and min
imum daily wage of SO.
Several thousand men have been
imported to fill the strikers places
and the companies will be hard
pressed to find work for the return
ing strikers. When the strike began
the union claimed that approximately
1900 men were out. Since that time
many Of these have returned to work
and others have moved away from
the copper district. The latest esti-
mate of the number on strike made
by Secretary Hietela placed the figure
1T about 5000. The mining company
estimates were much smaller.

THE DARLINGTON HORSE SHOW.
Sumter Exhibitors Successful in Num-
ber OF Events.

ber OF Events.
Darlington, April 15.-The horse
show opened here today under unfa-
vorable weather conditions. For
twenty-four hours rain had been fall
ing, and in consequence the arena was
very soft. There were over a hundred
entries made and shown and no diff
ference was seen except in the road
ster classes. In these it was impOs-
sible to speed the horses at all on
account Of the track conditions.
The attendance at tho night show
was much better than in the after
noon, and the horses showed to ad-
vantage under the brilliant rows of
electric lamps that completely cover
the arena. Prof. II. l.. Shields, of
Clemson College, is judging the events,
and despite the large number enter
ed in each class he handled them
easily, and his awards apparently
have been satisfactory to the exhib-
itors and spectators.
Capt. w. II. Evans, of Palmetto, is
assisting the Judge as ringmaster.
IT would be impossible to pick out
u better ring OF horses than is being
shown here, and to name tho best il
would be necessary to name all, but
still the well-known horses of Mr.
