When the mine officials had about de-
cided to do away with old Jack. David
h. Williams, OF Philadelphia, president
of the company, appeared on the scene,

STANDARD ON MILK.


q. OF late have been receioi;,g from

per cent solids" Would you Kindly tell
me; has this milk the same food roiue
as the min which has no such marking
on its labelI F
Some dealers tell me that milk icith

25.5 per cent solids is. not up to the
Government standard and is n cheaper
product then the milk tchich has no
such marking. MRS T. n
A. Under food inspection decision
No. 1853 II is recorded that condensed
milk, evaporated milk, concentrated
milk. is the product resulting from tho
evaporation Of a considerable portion of
the water from the whole, fresh, olean
lacteal obtained by the complete milking
OF one or more healthy cows, properly
fed and kept, excluding that obtained
within fifteen days before and ten days
after calving, and contains, all toler-
ances being allowed for. not less than
25.5 per cent of total solids and not less
than rs per cent of milk fat.
1t would appear from the label on
your can that 1t did correspond to the
Government standard. at least in point
of butter fat and solids In our opinion
1t is very desirable to purchase q milk

Concerning the nutritive value, weight

Is theoretically greater than|that Of nat

Film Industry GiOes
Same Opportunity

The motion picture has proved It
self to be the most up-to-date of in
dustrial and artistic concerns by
placing no limitations on the activi-
ties of woman. While women stage
directors are rarities in the theatri-
cal profession. there are several
women photoplay directors who rank
high In the profession. And there
are q number of women who act,
write and direct with equal facility.
Lois Weber, now with the Uni

Another of the Universal stars
who can write plays and direct their

personnel. She has appeared for the
last year as leading woman with
Francis Ford in a number Of excep-

Of these she had charge OF the pro-
