MOST NUTRITIOUS FOOD
SOLD IN TOPEKA

Topeka women should know that
Minnesota macaroni. besides being
so delicious, is also four times as nu-
tritious as beef-steak and six times
as nutritious as potatoes.
Minnesota macaroni contains
more proteids than most foods and is
therefore more strength giving and
less fattening. 1t it is served often in
place of meat the whole family will
be much healthier. And, besides. ii
will reduce the cost of living as
Minnesota macaroni costs only one
cent a dish.
There is big difference in mac
aroni as sold in the stores. Insist on
Minnesota macaroni, made from
genuine Durum wheat with all the
wonderfully nourishing Gluten left in.
You can get it in long pieces or cut
into uniform short lengths

Pay no attention to eleventh hour
campaign lies. If any man had any
thing to say about a candidate there
has been plenty OF time for him to
have said it so that it might have
been explained. We have had very
pleasant and happy campaign OF the
county aRd if there is anything any
one had to bring against a candidate
there has been plenty of time in
which to do it, and if it should be
started no. you may put it down
that there is something wrong about
it. The people have not talked much
which to our mind means that they
are thinking and are going to cast
their ballots as they please and as
they think for the best of the public
service and the most efficient service.
And it is well.

"My regular Summer work for
Wofford College in particular, and
for education in general, has taken
me over many counties, and feel
quite sure, after watching closely
the trend Of things, tha$ Governor
Manning will succeed himcelf. IN
my judgment the Governor is gain
ing ground every dssy. The open.
manly, straight way in which he
has met his opponents and his
persistent fight all along for good,
clean government are gripping tae
attention Of the people as the elee-
ton day approaches.
MANY good men, who would per
sonally prefer one oette other can-
didates are beginning to feel as
does DR.. MeCain; that to vote at

evidence of a failure to appreciate
an honest effort on the part Of the
