For breakfast it was mush, greasy meat, soggy cakes, black coffee, etc. "After a few months of this diet I used to feel sleepy and heavy in the mornings. My work seemed a ter rible effort, and I thought the work was to blame—too arduous. "At home I had heard my father Speak of a young fellow who went long distances in the cold on Grape* Nuts and cream and nothing more for breakfast. "I concluded if it would tide him over a morning's heavy work, it might help me, so on my way home one night I bought a package and next morning I had Grape-Nuts .and milk for breakfast. "I stuck to Grape-Nuts, and in less than two weeks I noticed improve ment. I can't Just tell how well I felt, but I remember I used to walk the 12 blocks to business and knew how good It was simply to live.

NORTH DAKOTALEGISLATURE AMBIGUOUS ATTITUDE OF THE TEMPERANCE FORCES. jrjlouse Committee Decides Favorably en Bill Prohibiting Liquor 4 Advertising. 1' Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 24.—The sen ate committee has completed its la boron the appropriation bills and finds that the measures asked for a total of $2,030,306. As recommended to pass by the committee the amount was cut down to $1,877,074. These figures are slight increase over those of the last legislature. The appropriations committee this afternoon made the following recom mendations, which were passed under a suspension of the rules and the mat ter will go to the house—after the house acts, all differences In amounts will then be sent to conference: Asked.

C., free tests for tubercular cattle, geolog ical survey, repairs to the exeuctive mansion, all carrying appropriations were recommended killed. North Dakota's booze .supply Is a fruitful subject for discussion here today. There was a joint meeting of the senate and the house committees on temperance before which Represen tatives of the enforcement league, the N. D. W. C. T. U. and the druggists of the state appeared. The discussion was chiefly on the McArthur bill, which has been recom mended for passage. It provides for the entire abolition of druggists' per mits and leaves the sale of liquor only on physicians' certificates. The phy sicians are very much opposed to the law.' Mrs. Anderson, the head of the W. C. T. U., and a committee of druggists also appeared before the joint commit tee session, ft The committee announced it would be able to report on all of the four teen charges against the former man agements of the state pen—except the fourteenth, regarding rebates—before the legislative adjournment. This re lates to rebates on twine and discrim inations in selling prices. The only recommendation made in the preliminary report is for a better system of bookkeeping. Bismarck, Feb. 25.—Did the prohibi tion people weaken when it came to the final test? Were they sineere when it came down to the abolition of the druggists' permits? These and other questions are being asked today as a result of the report of the house temperance committee on the McCrea bill, 283. This provides for the con tinuance of the drug permit system, but removed the power of granting it from the county to the district Judges and places the limit on the sale to any one person any one day at a half pint. Members of the legislature had ex pressed favor for the McArthur bill, wiping out drug permits entirely, till the arrival of the W. C. T. U. and other temperance workers, and they appear not to want the boards swept clean. The change to district judges is thought to be a wise provision, if the permits are to be continued. The house temperance committee also reported favorably on Garden's bilt 331, which prevents giving liquor to Indians. TlmeChanges Everything. It beats all, how time changes things.

Martin's bill, 301, preventing the operation of motion picture shows on Sunday. This bill was originally re ferred to the military, committee. The judiciary committee of the sen ate today made a favorable report- on 8. B. 30 by Duis of Grand Forks, em powering city councils to regulate the charge to be paid for gas for lighting and heating purposes. This bill orig inally included electric lights, but other towns threatened ltb ji&ssage and it was eliminated. The Duis bill is a part of the long fight at Grand Forks over gas charges. The house committee determined this afternoon to report favorably on the bill to prohibit the publication of: liquor ads or the solicitation by Indi viduals of liquor orders in the state. Several lawyers claim the bill is un constitutional and especially so with any paper that has a circulation in any state where liquor licenses are recognized. The law, it is claimed, cannot exclude papers from other states circulating liquor ads in this state nor North Dakota papers from publishing them. House committees also made favor able reports on H. B. 337 .to increase the state printing commission from three to five by adding the state treas urer and attorney general. This is the measure which is reported to have been gotten up in the interests of Su perintendent of Public Instruction Slockwell, who wants a majority of the members who are friendly so he can dictate the placing of $15,000 worth of school printing from his of fice. In this connection the reported interest of the superintendent in a Valley City printery is discussed. Bismarck, Feb. 26.—The White pri mary election bill has been absolutely killed so far as the present legislature is concerned. Following its indefinite postponement by the committee of the whole in the house on Wednesday, it was reconsidered by that body Thurs day afternoon and was defeated by a larger vote than on Wednesday. There are now four primary election measures to be disposed of in the house. Judging by their character there will be no primary election leg islation this session and the people of the state must submit themselves to the present obnoxious measure for ant other two years. A glance at the man ner in which the vote on the Whfte bill was recorded demonstrates that a majority of the house prefer to have the rich men of the state hold all of the important offices of the state. The senate placed. a big grist of bills on their third reading and final passage this afternoon. Some of the more important of the house meas ures are the Minot normal school, the law compelling autoists to stop on sig nal from team drivers, commissions of administrators, pay of election of ficials, the Devils Lake biological sta tion, meetings on' the state board of pardons. Some of the senate measures are the bill against certain classes of med ical advertisemients, revision and com pilation of the state school laws, ter minal elevators outside the state, med ical examination of school pupils, rec ognition of high school diplomas, state tax commission, storage receipts for grain from elevators and warehouses. The house this afternoon passed the anti-pass bill of Representative White of Traill county. It went through on a vote of 56 to 26 with 6 absent and not voting. At the evening session of the house, the bill increasing the salaries of deputies to state officers, from $1,800 per annum to $2,000, per annum, was indefinitely postponed. The bill al lowing the attorney general two as sistants at a salary of $3,000 each annually was one of the measures also favorably recommended by the com mittee of the whole. Three appro priation measures were sanctioned by the house, $189,000 for the state uni versity, $60,000 for the state science school at Wahpetori, and $152,815 for the Valley City normal. These bills were passed by the house under a suspension of the rules. There is considerable difference between the house and senate appropriation bills relative to these three institutions and a conference committee will be necessary to properly adjust the ap propriations. Bismarck, Feb. 27.—In the bouse this morning the appropriation of $6, 000 for the Florence Crlttendon home at Fargo failed. Representative Baker secured a re hearing and after a nice speech the Florence Crittenden appropriation was passed, 74 to 15i The public service utilities com mission, composed of Governor Burke, Lieutenant Governor Lewis and Form er Speaker Twichell, made its report to both branches of the legislature today.
