Are the Packers Receiving Fair Play7
When the tiarfleld report on the
biislnens methods of the packers ap-
peared. after eight months' investiga-
tion It was severely criticised und
roundly denounced. After three
months of publicity it Is significant
Ihut those who attempted to discredit
It have failed to controvert the figures
contained In that exhaustive doc
mi nt. The public Is beginning lo no-
tice this omission, and the feeling Is
rapidly growing that the sensational
charges out of which the "Beef In
vestlgatlon" arose were without foun-
dation. If lIf official statements of
tho report an- susceptible of contr;
diction, a good many people are- now
nsklni? why the facts and figures are
not furnished to contradict them.
The truth seems to be thai most of
the charges contain unfounded sensa
tionaf assertions. A flagrant example
of this appeared in a recent article In
an Eastern magazine, to tho effect
that "forty Iowa banks were force
to close their doors in 1903-4 by the
Beef Trust's manipulation of cattle
prices." Chief Clerk Cox, of the bank-
ing department of the Iowa Stato An
dltor's office, has tabulated Ihe list of
banks given in the maga/lne article
and has publicly denounced the state-
ment as utterly untrue lie gives
separately the reasons for each fail-
ure mentioned and officially states
that they have been caused by unwise
speculations and by reckless banking
methods. It may be well to "Suspend
judgment upon Ihe packers until the
charges against them are proved.

An Oakland lady who lias u taste
/or good literature. ' <■!Is what a happy
time she haO on "The Koail to Well
ville." She says:
"i drank coffee freely for eight
years before I began to perceive any
evil effects from it. Then I noticed
that I was becoming very nervous,
and that my stomach was gradually
losing the power to properly assimi-
late my food. In time I sot so weak
that I dreaded to leave the house—
for no reason whatever but because of
the miserable condition of my nerves
and stomach. I attributed the trouble
to anything In the world but coffee
of course. 1 dosed myself with medi-
cines, which in the end would leave
me in a worse condition than at first.
1 was most wretched and dlscourag
ed—not 30 years old and feeling that
life was a failure!
"I had given up all hope of ever
enjoying myself like other people, till
one day I read the little book "The
Road to Wallville." It opened my
eyes* and taught me a lesson I shall
never forget and cannot value too
highly, i immediately quit the use
of the.old kind of coffee and began to
drink Postnm Food Coffee. 1 noticed
the beginning of an Improvement in
the whole tone of my system, after
only two days' use of the new drink,
and in a very short time realized that
1 could go about like other people
without the least return of the ner-
vous dread that formerly gave me so
much trouble. In fact my nervous-
ness disappeared entirely and has
never returned, although it is now a
year that I have been drinking Postnm
Kocd Coffee. And my stomach is now
lika iron—nothing can upset It!
"Last week, during the big Con-
clave in San Francisco, I was on the
go day and night without the slight-
est fatigue; and as I stood in the im-
mense crowd watching ihe great par-
ade that lasted for hours. I thought
to myself. This strength is what Pos-
tum Food Coffee has given me!' "

to the ranch from Texas, where he
went to buy steers to be used in the
roping contests which will take place
In connection with the Indinn cele-
bration for the entertainment of the
National Kdltorlal Association
June II. These animals are the
wildest that have been on the prairie
of Oklahoma for many years. The;
come from close to the Mexican lin<
and know nothing of fences. They
caused a pretty row when they were
first taken from the ears. The rop-
ing contest will be the best that has
been seen In the west for years, anil
the prizes will be the most valuable
that have ever been offered.
Says It's a Fraud. — Secretary of
the Territory William Crimes has is-
sued n letter to insurance agents in

Ends Misery.
Another of those remarkable cures
by Cuticura, after doctors and all else
had failed, is testified to Jiy Mr. M
C. Moss of Gainesville, Texas, in the
following letter: "For over thirty
years 1 suffered from painful ulcers
:ind an eruption from my knees to
feet, and could find neither doctors
nor medicine to help me, until I used
Cuticura Soap. Ointment and Pills,
which cured me In six months. They
helped me the very first time I used
them, and 1 am glad to write this so
that others suffering 11s I did may be
saved from misery."
For every ill-spoken word a dart
is sent through conscience.
Mother's Devotion
To her children is one of the most
beautiful tilings in life. When they
are sick, the wise mother, who has
taken the pains to study their best
interests, promptly gives them Dr.
Caldwell's (laxative) Syrup Pepsin.
It quickly relieves pain and fever,
and can never do anything but good.
Try it.
Realization is lessons that are well
learned.
Insist on Getting It.
Some groci-rs nay they don't keep
Defiance Starch. This ia because they
have a stock 011 hand of other brands
containing only 12 oz in a package,
which they won't be able to sell first,
because Defiance contains 16 oz. for

Do you want 16 oz. instead of 12 03.

Chickamaugu Park Ga., May 31.—
The L'nitoii States government has here
in operation one of tbe largest acety-
lene gas plant* In the world The mili-
tary post at the entrance of the histor-
ical Chlckamauga battlefield where
thirty thousand linlon and Confederate
soldiers were lost in the nu moiablu
battle of Sept. 1ft and 2li. 1863, contains
about one hundred building*, the
-leverity five principal ones of which are
lighted with acetylene To aecom
pllah this alx and one half miles of
mains uud two miles of service pipes
are In use. while slxty-flve street
lumps brilliantly illuminate the ave-
nues of the post.
In 1903 the War Department in-
stalled a test acetylene plant at Fort
Meyer, Virginia. The results were
so gratifying and tho (superiority
of Ihe illumlnant so evident that the
government, March 20, 1904, placed
^ the contract for the Chlckamauga
plant. In which every citizen of the
United States should have Ills pro
rata of pride.
Hut the government has not con-
fined its acceptance of acetylene to
this military post. Since becoming
satisfied of the efficiency, superiority
and economical advantages of this
particular Illumlnant, the United
Slates has Installed a number of
plants In Indian schools and other gov-
ernment institutions.
Acetylene gas is one of the simplest
ns well as the most perfect of artificial
lights. It Is made by the contact
of wafer and carbide, (a manufactured
product for sale at a nominal price),
is absolutely safo and gives a beau-
tiful white light soothing to the eyes
and nerves. It can be produced any-
where in the fann home, the village
store, the town hall, the church—and
Is so easily maintained as to
be practical for all classes.
It Is a matter for national congratu-
lation thai in beautifying so historic
a spot as Chlckamauga, nothing but
the best, including the lighting sys-
tem, has been deemed good enough
for the American people.
"HEART OF THE HOME."
In Those Words Clubwoman Aptly
Describes the Kitchen.
"Domestic science seems to be the
solution of several vexed questions,
such as the servant problem, divorce,
and temperance. If more money were
expended by cities In introducing do-
mestic science into the schools less
money would need to be spent on in-
sane asylums, poorhouses and peni-
tentiaries, '' said Miss Ella G. Neave
in her address on '' The Progress of
Domestic Science '' before the depart-
ment of the household economics and
education of the Woman's Club.
'" The kitchen is the heart of the
home. The woman who holds the
comfort of a man battling with the
world In her hands has responsibility
as great as that of a commander of a
battleship. The only remedy for the
evils of bad cooking and lack of good
homes Is in the schools of domestic
science which are established in the
public schools.'' — Cincinnati Com-
mercial Tribune.

in my back and hip aud legs. I tried
everything but nothing helped me till

FIXING RAILROAD RATES.
Making railroad rates is like play-
ing a game of checkers or chess. Com-
munities to be benefitted, producers,
manufacturers or shippers to lie aided
represent the pieces used. Every pos-
sible move Is 'studied for its effect
on the general result by skilled traf-
fic managers. A false move In the
milking of freight rates may mean the
ruin of a city, of a great manufactur-
ing Interest, of an agricultural com-
munity . Railroads strive to build up
all these so that each may have an
equal chance iu the sharp competi-
tion of business. So sensitive to this
rivalry are the railroads that iu order
to build up business along their lines
they frequently allow the shipper io
practically dictate rates. Rate mak-
ing has been a matter of development;
of mutual concessions for mutual
benefit. That If. why the railroads of
thi? United Slates have voluntarily
mu'io freight rates so much lower In
this country tliau they are on the
government-owned and operated rail-
ways of Europe and Australia that
they are now the lowest transport*
tlon rates In the world.

tread on her frocks.—Helen Row-
