Invitation to become a federal JtMge In
Alaska, he Is the only man who knows It.
He will neither say he Is or he Isn't. He
will not say hf has declined It and he only
smiles when asked If he has accepted It.
In fact, he makes It a question whether
he ever re-celved any "invitation to go to
AlaRka, but It Is a fact that he has been
looking up the map of that region. Ho
has discovered that court Is held at Eagle
and Fairbanks.
"Eagle." he said, "Is located about 1.000
miles Inland under the Arctic circle, at the
mouth of a froxen river." Fairbanks had
not been located by the legal department
lata this afternoon, but by Its name It
was presumed by some of Rose's friends
to be colder than Eagle. Mr. Rose declined

any Indication whether he had even re

realised there Is great' rejoicing out' In

ten regarding tho controversy betweon
Collier's Weekly and the Religious Press
of the Country and others, including our
selves. Also regarding suits for libel
brought by Collier's against us for com
menting upon Its methods.
These ara his sentiments, with soma
very emphatic words left out.
"Tha religious Press owes you a debt
of gratitude for your courage In showing
up Collier's Weekly as the "Tell-Oh
Man." Would you cara to uae tha In
closed article on the "Boo Hoo Baby" as
the Yell-Oh Man's" successor?"
"A contemporary remarks that Collier's
has finally run against a solid hickory
"Post" and beep damanged In Its own esti
mation to the tuna of $7B0,000.00.
"Hera Is a publication which has, in
utmost disregard of tha facts, spread
broadcast damaging statements about
the Religious Press and others and haa
suffered those false statements to go un
contradicted, until, not satisfied after
finding the Religious Press too quiet and
peaceful, to resent the Insults It mulces
the mistake of wandering Into a fresh
field and butts Its rattled head against
this Post and all the World laughs. Even
Christians smile, as tha Post sudds ily
turns and gives It back, a dosa of Its own
f medicine."
"It I sa mistake to say all tha World
laua-hs. No cheery laugh comes fr.im
Collier's, but It cries and boo hooa Ilk
a spanked baby and wants 1780.000.00 to
soothe Its tender, lacerated feelings."
"Thank Heaven It has at last struck
ay man with "hack bona", enough to call
a spade a "spade" and who believes In
telling tha whole truth without fear or
favor."
. Perhapa Collier's with Its "utmost dls
rerard for the facts." may say no suzh
letter exists. Nevertheless it Is on flU
In our office and Is only one of a mass of
letters and other data, newspaper com
ments. et. denouncing th "yellow"
methods of Collier's. This volume Is so
largo that a man could not well go thru
It under half a day's steady work. Tha
letters coma from various parts of
America. 1
Usually a private controversy Is not
interesting to th public, but this is a
public controversy.
Collier's has been using tha "yellow"
method to attract attention to Itself,
but. Jumping In tha air,. cracking heels

AMES STUDENTS LIKE TO WALK

AMES, la., Oct. 7. (Special.) A hurry-up
meeting of the. board of trustees was called
at the Iowa State college yesterday to
discuss lnterurban troubles with the student
body and to decide whether to put In a
walk or highway between Ames and the

in iwi me Doara lormauy aeciaea to put
in a highway by opening up tho college
grounds so ks to continue Story street.
This resolution, however, was rescinded at
this meeting, because of the exceedingly
great expense of doing such work, and In
stead, It was decided to make a cinder
walk along tha route. Tho only way by
which students living in town can reach the
cases that they would not pay their, f area
unless seats were provided, and' upon their
refusal to do so, they have been ejootod
from the cars, in some Instances when the
cars were In motion, - Thla matter was re
fered by the board of trustees to a special
committee coposed of Chairman McElroy,
Dixon. Allyn, Zmundt and Brenton. This
special committee alro has In charge the
matter of putting up waiting stations along
the lnterurban route on college property.

itself mora ridiculous than any comment
of ours could make it,
Does I Collier's expect to regain any
self-inflicted loss of prestige by demon
strating thru suits for damages, that It
can bo mora artful in evading imilUy
for libels than tha humble but resentrul
victims of Its defamation, or does It hope
by starting a campaign of libel suits to
llenca tha popular Indignation, iepr.Mu.-h
and resentment which it has aroused?
Collier's can not dodge this public con
troversy by private law suits. It can
not postpone the public Judgment against
It. That great Jury, the Public, will
hardly blame us for not waiting until wa

Starchy food Is not digested In tho
upper stomach but nasses on into th.
doudenum, or lower, stomach and intes
tines, where, in a healthy individual, tha
.transformation of the starch Into a form
of sugar Is completed and then the food
absorbed by the blood. r
But If tha powers of digestion ara
weakened, a part of the starchy food vlll
lis in the warmth and moisture of tha
body and decay, generating gases and
irritating the mucous surfaces until under
such conditions tha whole lower part of
the alimentary canal, including tha colon
and the appendix, becomes Involved. Dis
ease sets up and. at times takes the form
known as appendicitis.
When the symptoms of the ' trouble
make their appearance, would it not ta
good, practical, common ' sense, to dis
continue tha starchy food which Is caus
ing the trouble and take a food in which
the ftarch has been transformed inta a
form of sugar In the process of manu
facture? This is identically ' the same form of
sugar found In the human body after
starch has been perfectly digested.''
Now, human food Is made up very
largely of starch and la required by the
body for energy and warmth. Naturally,
therefore, its use slfbuld ba continue.!.
