It indicates the purest milk from field-fed cows
condensed in scrupulously clean buildings, by a pro
cess that preserves all the food qualities to which has
been added phosphates and hypophosphites, the
same food properties found in wheat the greatest
body builders. It makes strong teeth and bones, firm
flesh, steady nerves, quick brain and rich blood for
infants and growing children. It is a wonderful
restorative for aged or invalid persons. It is better for
the table than fresh milk rich as cream, fnn1!,.

that the justice fixed up a tlctltlous
case In whl-di Frank Shannon was de
lenoant, John Polan prosecutor, nnd
the charge iissuull and battery. The
records show that Shannon was dis
ehnrged and that Glenn drew tees
amounting to .VJ.i.O. The common
wealth's contention Is that no such
com- was over begun und that Glenn
fiuudulenlly secured the Sl',50.
Thu Juty was drawn In the main
court loom bM'orj Judge J. P. Kelly,
and utter It wn secured Attorney
John It. IMwaulH. who represents
Glenn, asked to luiu the indictment

Muted; Mi. Udwaids contended, that
Glenn hud diawn fees for a discharged
ra?c' which was perfectly legitimate.
Judge Kelly refused to take Jtr. Ed

to ruiash the Indictment.
The case was then sent Into No. 2

Attorney "V. Uaylord Thomas had

charge Glenn on the ground that the
opening of tlm commonwealth did not
charge a criminal offense. Again Mr.

cuurt adjourned tor the day at this
point, and the taking of tiftlmony will
begin this morning.

In dlsputliiR' the adx'crse deductions
of tlic local court the appell.int is tnitdc
to make 11 comment to tin- effect that
"it xx-eakly attempted to s-hiik its own
rehpunslblllty and shift It over to the
shoulders of the lawmakers with a
lumentaldo lack of that mental and
moral cuuraBC which has ever been one
of the chief characteristics of the
judiciary of this cnmmonxx-ealth." This
comment was auent the declaration of
the court that the legislature was the
judge of the necessity of classification,
by which declaration It brushed aside
the contention of the appellant that
there were no "manifest peculiarities"
about Pittsburg, Allegheny and Scran
ton th.tt demanded a classification,
giving these cities recorders as chief
executives, whllu all other cities in the
state are allowed to continue to have
their municipal affairs administered by
a mayor. If the legislature can vest
the poxvers of chief executlx-e of n t.ec-ond-class
city In a recorder, it can
Hkexviso vest In a United States sen
ator the powers of chief executive of a
first-class city, and in a third-class
city It might make the attorney gen
eral the chief executive, the argument
goes on to recite.
A large part of thw argument is de
voted to the support of the contention
that Scranton xvas not a second-class
city x hen tho respondent was. appoint
ed lecorder. The governor's certifica
tion of the ceiihtis, it Is claimed, xx'as
only a pieltminury step to the city's
