YOU hardly get enough nourishment
from your meals to pay for the cost of
cooking. This is true Of thin folks the
world over. Your nutritive organs. your
functions of assimilations, are sadly out
Of gear and need reconstruction.

the blood the carrying power to deliver
every ounce of fat-making material in

Sargol, too, mixes with your food and
prepares it for the blood in easily as

the committee will take favorable ac-
ton on it. A number Of members OF
the house plan to make speeches on the
subject. 1t may also be taken up IN
the senate. It will not be dropped.
II the house democratic leaders were
wise they would adopt the resolution
and bring about the investigation. Mr..
Good in his speech strongly indicated
his belief that the market was being
manipulated by the big packers and
that the department of justice was
negligent Of duty in failing to act in
a situation of this kind.
For political reasons, however, the
probabilities are the house leaders will
hang back and try to let the resolu-
ton die with the end of this session
Some of them think that 1t would
hurt the democratic party to have the
house prod the department of justice
in a matter of this kind. AS a mater
of fact, it will be poor politics not to
pass it and thus seem to shield the
packers and shield the department OF
justice from being criticized for nom
a ctiOn.

Feast Of Good Things at Church Meet
ina in Grinnell.


Special to Times Republican.
Grinnell, Feb. 10.-Yesterday was
feast of fat things" in the fellowship
conference line. Herrick chapel was
oyer-running for the musical program
at 1880, the Congregational Brother
hood never had a larger attendance
upon its lunch, and the auditorium OF
the large church was filled with eager
listeners to the scholarly address by
DR.. Charles E.. Jefferson on THE Bible
and War" The treatment of the sub
feet was unique, general but not spe-
ci.lc, taking the general teachings Of
Christ because no specific saying either
for or against war could be found by
the speaker. The general conclusion
drawn was that it is sometimes nee
essary and christian to use physical
compulsion in the case of individuals,
and if so. then in communities, states
and countries.

To the Swift.

While the morning rush was on one
day this week, a young woman fol-
lowed an open trolley car down Broad
way. running two blocks before she
caught it. This she was able to do
because of the jam of the traffic
which retarded the car Her efforts
attracted attention on both sides of
the street. and hurrying shOp-hands
stopped to cheer her on. At Houston
street, where she came painting up to
the side of the car, she gasped to
the conductor that she had left her
pOcketbook on the seat, and wanted to
get it. He obligingly held the car while
she made a search. No pocketbook
was found, but as she stepped off into
the street again, her eyes filed with
tears, there came a shout from behind,
Tt was the motorman of the succeed
ing car, and in his hand, as he leaned
over his brake, he held the pocket
book.
Here it is, lady" he said. Don't
cry; you only caught the car ahead. y

German Wedding Superstition.

In some parts of Germany the duties
OF the bridesmaids are tinged with
superstition. 1t is one of their duties
on the morning of the marriage day
to carry to the bride myrtle wreath.
Tor which they had subscribed on the
previous evening. This they place on
her head, and at night remove it. when
it is placed in the brides hand. she
being at the time blindfoIded. The
bridesmaids then dance round her.
while she endeavors to place the
wreath on one of their heads. Who
ever is fortunate enough to be thus
decorated will, it is believed, be wife
before another year has passed. In
removing the bridal wreath and veil
the bridesmaids are careful to throw
away every pin, or the bride will be
overtaken by misfortune, while any
unwary bridesmaid who retains one
will lessen her chances of marriage.

Although Mexico lies half within

orally known as a tropical country,
aud. indeed, the main gateway to it,

countered there as at Vera Cruz. In

ing within the temperate zone, alter

old SACR|IFICIAL
Stones AROUSING
GREAT Interest

Especial Star-R1.ietin Correspondence
HILO, May 21.-Although arrange
ments are being made to move the
two sacrificial stones that repose on
the property of John Scott of Wainaku
and to place them on the Hilo Library
lot, the legends concerning the big
stones are still unknown.
The Rev. S. l.. Desha is said to
know the legend connected with one
stone, but is not conversant with the
story of the other. He is, however
endeavoring to learn something of the
history from some old Hawaiians who
are now residing on Oahu. w. H,
Shipman is also interested in the mat
ter and he is making an effort to OBJ
tain the history of the large stone
from some old native sources.
The two sacrificial stones are said
to have interesting histories and when
the stories are learned they will be
printed in pamphlet form and placed
in the Hilo Library, where visitors
can read OF the curious days of the
oIden times in Hawaii.

SUNDAY MOVIES
: ORDINANCE PUT
THROUGH IN RUSH

As a result of the passage of the
Sunday movie ordinance by the super
visors Saturday night the first licens-
ed Sunday motion picture exhibition
was held at the Biiou last night. when
"Cabiria'' was unreeled before pack.
ed house. AS is usual at motion pie
ture exhibitions in the Bijou theaier,
the rear seats at II and p cents, were
packed. while the J0-cent seats closer
TO the screen were almost empty.
According to the law and the ord
nance the film must be educational
or Biblical and "CabiTia" is claSsed as
the former Hannibal crossing the
Alps, the fall of Cabiria, and the wars
on the African plains are historical
All the elements of a good picture
blend with the best Photographic art
in Cabiria, and, although the audience
failed to attach any historic value to
the picture, it appreciated the scenery.
Judging from its comments
The ordinance passed early in the
evening, the supervisors declared a re-
cess and dispatched the ordinance TO
Mayor Lane, who was on the L. S. S.
Maryland, and the executive signed
the bill. AS soon as it had been re
turned the supervisors were called to
order and the police committee sub
mitted report stating that it had
viewed "Cabiria" and recommended
that a permit be given the Bijou for
a show Sunday night The supervis
ors .obligingly did so. -..
