The strength of a child. It is surprising to find how few parents know the great strength giving qualities of good oatmeal. Most of them think of it as a food for the sturdy Scotch or the brawny Englishman , and overlook its value as a food for children. Every now and then a mother will take to fecd- Jng her children on Quaker Oats and " "will he astonished at their improvement in strength and vigor. Of course , she tells her friends , and they prove it for themselves , but every mother in the country should see that her children are strong and vigorous. Plenty of Quaker Oats , eaten often , will do it. Put up in t o sizes , the regular pack age and'tbs large faaaily size which is more convenient for those V/h'd do cot live in towa.

More About Story's Con fession. "Well , boys , you know we have had hard work to know anything for sure about the Samuel Story murder ease. The detailed confession , which I had printed in THE DEMOCRAT last week , was not without doubt in my mind as to its truthfulness. This being true , I could not and did not stop the investigation , but have been up and down the rail road and to the records of the penitentiary ever since Story was sent to prison , and have gotten the matter to a point where all may know and not guess at what they are saying. 1 was quite inclined to believe the rehearsal of his con fession at first , but was bewildered , and , having poor evidence with which to convict'the man , I felt like giving him the benefit of the doubt as to the MOTIVE , not as to the shooting. Xow , while 1 have a weakness to forgive a criminal , so do I have a strong desire to correct any feel ing that may have grown out of the statements in the written con fession , which statements might lead some to sympathize , when no sympathy was due , and the like of thut. Kow , in my last week's follow ing of a chain of occurrences I am positively in possession of such facts as will clear all your minds as to the motive , and how long the motive ! ad existed ; who ? ,11 v am had trouble with in the last five years , and whatsit was that first ; prompted him to secure the gun a nl how he ca'ne by it ; \ \ hether lr * got here by train or otherwise ; can tell how much of your suspic ions were well .founded , arid Low and \ \ here \ ou were faulty in many of your ' 'think SOPS , " and of the exar-t manner of getting Fred Smith to the slaughter block Jfc hits been an obscure cas . We have had a hard , long sieye of wonderings how in the world it ever happened. I positively know at last , and you are all my ac quaintances both men and wom en. Come to the court house next Friday night about S o'clock , and while I should like to tell you all both men and women , I will say that if you are in sympathy with the murderer and wish to remain so you had perhaps , better not come , because all of the h 1 that has been at the bottom of this case will be disclosed. If the boys all wish we will hastily pick a jury among the crowd and hastily go through a sort of mock trail. After the jury hears the facts narrated they are to have their discussion , one at a time , right there in the presence of the crowd , so that all may un derstand well and hear their ver dict , and I am sure we will all feel better for having our minds clear ed up. I will put my findings up against the findings of the whole county , and take the jury's verdict for it. MILT LATTA.
