Care in Preparing Food
In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas
ured largely by its purity the re
sult is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known
One food that has stood out promi
nently as a perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as it
could possibly be is Quaker Oats
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle
and brain The best and cheapest of
all foods The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufacturer of oatmeal
that has satisfactorily solved the prob
lem of removing the husks and black
specks which are so annoying -when
other brands are eaten If you are
convenient to the store buy the reg
ular size packages if not near the
store buy the large size family pack

THEY TOOK MM IN
A Surprise That Ruffled an Absent-
minded Scientist
A certain foreign scientist who lec
tured in this country was to say the
least careless about dress Once lie
was asked to lecture in a elty not far
from Philadelphia Me went taking
with him his lt - uit and no other
suit Having jen Ills lecture he
spent the niht at the limine ol a
low professor woke up tin lieu imru
ing cheerfully donned tin dies Milt
and sallied forth to live another lec
ture at the local college
He didnt know just -where ilie col
lege was hut spinp an imposing
looking buiidiim inn fir from lii
hosts residence de iiNtl that that was
It While walking toward the door he
suddenly v iw an ant hill Hugs were
111- snriili Uc dropped at once to
mi knees dress suil and all and start
ed to scoop out ants
The next tiling he knew he was sur
rounded by a body of men who had
rushed oiu irmn the Imposing looking
building I hey seized him roughly
and proceeded to drag him indoors
lie gesticulated lie protected in many
languages It was of no avail Atlast
however explanations were fm incom
ing
The imposing looking building was
none other than the lunatic asylum
Seeing a man attired in a dress suit
digging up ants at 10 oclock in the
morning the attendants had thought
that an inmate had escaped hence the
sally and attack Philadelphia Record
VARNISH TROUBLES
The Complaint That Is Made by a
Piano Manufacturer
The piano manufacturer was talking
A fortune of a million dollars at
least he said awaits the man who
can invent a varuKh which will re
spond to changes of temperature in
exactly the same rate at which wood
responds
Everybody who ever has made or
owned a highly polished article of fur
niture knows that the surface is liable
to break into small cracks become
finely crackled and thus its beauty is
lost This crackling is caused by the
fact that sudden changes of tempera
ture affect varnish especially tine
piano varnish almost instantly while
the wood beneath contracts or ex
pands at a different rate This splin
ters the varnish and thus far no man
ufacturer has been able ro get the
best of the situation
We are waiting for this entirely
possible elastic varnish which when
it shall come will be more welcome to
the manufacturers of One furniture
than the flying machine is to the world
at large A piano delicate as it is
could be stored in an icehouse without
detriment to its polished surface pro
vided the temperature was kept even
but changes especially if sudden are
fatal to the beauty of the case

Her Patrioiic Protest
The force of natural and instinctive
pride in ones country has been end
lessly expressed in literatures of all
times and climes but rarely more dra
matically than in the following little
incident
Grieg as every one knows is the
musical idol of all Norwegians al
though it has been the fashion of less
talented outsiders to underrate him
One of the most indefatigable of these
detractors was the German composer
Bargiel a man of an instinctively jeal
ous nature
One day one of his pupils a Norwe
gian girl brought for her lesson a con
certo of Griegs Bargiel took it from
her with a smile of most superior dis
dain
But I told you to bring your music
and Grieg is no music be said scorn
fully
What Grieg no music was the
indignant reply Adieu Herr Profess
or And she swept out of the studio
never to return
To Save Confusion When Moving
If you are planning to move prevent
confusion in placing furniture in the
new house in the following maimer
In leisure moments prepare a large
card for each room to be tacked to the
outside of the door frame on moving
day Assign a number and mark a
card for each bedroom Letter the
ether cards with the names of the
other rooms Then prepare a number
of smaller tags attaching a string to
each or use baggage tags Mark
enough to put on all furniture trunks
or boxes with the name of the room
into which each is to be put Show
your movers the arrangement and
there will be little or no error in plac
ing while no valuable time and
strength will be lost iu directing

out of the game entirely tho chances iu
the first half were poor to win Frank

and Evans tho star full back and punt
or for McCco t was put iu and the game
changed immediately In tho last few
miii ut oh of tho second half McCook
tied the Sjor and the i feieo trii d to
call it ilo il h u o greut protest arose
wliereiipin Hib ollicials executed some
unpdraluliod magnifying of their j op
tions and refused to allow Campbell for
McCook to kick goal which left the
game a tie
Speculation as to the cause of the act
ran high and it certainly looked queer
because no law or rule of foot ball could
be construed whereby an ollicial could
withhold tne right to a place kick after
allowing s touch down
Sentiment still asks the question why
or how cojld it be
The 6coie stands 11 to 11 but Camp
bell seldom fails on a place kick and the
rightful score should bo 12 to 11 in favor
of McCook
