Modern Gullivers
Some men stand out from the crowd as Gulliver towered over

they predominate. y
Feeling right within, is one of the fundamentals of physical

Grape-Nuts

is the logical food for thinkers and doers. It contains all the nutri
tious elements of whole wheat and malted barley, is partially pre
digested, and supplies an abundance of energizing nourishment
without overworking the stomach. It also includes the vital min
eral salts of the grain which are lacking in white bread and many
other cereal foods.

"There's a Reason"
Why Schleisner Label
This Season
Already this season many
writers in fashion sheets and in "ads"\
are advertising and predicting various
styles—
We don't
question anyone's knowledge the
styles are indeed varied —
\Ve
simply point to the fact that the
Schleisner label since its beginning has
stood for the correct in wearing ap
parel as shown and advertised by the
New York stores at the identical time—-
Correct styles
can not be selected by everyone—
There is a knack to this—
and we claim that our buyers have that
knaclc —
Therefore with
the Schleisner label feel assured of
correctness.

Opens 104 th Convention
Pittsburgh, Sept. 19. The 104 th i
annual meeting of the Supreme Coun- ■
ell, Thirty-third Degree, Ancient Ac- j
cepted Scottish Rite Free Masons,
Northern Jurisdiction, was opened to
day. Ilarton Smith, of Toledo, Ohio,
sovereign grand commander, spoke,
and the Supreme Council was opened
in the fourteenth degree. To-night
the thirty-third degree will be con
ferred. To direct and facilitate the
administration of charitable, philan
thropic and benevolent enterprises in
vovlng millions of dollars in bequests
by members of the Supreme Council,
plans were presented to-day to that
body in the form of a report by a
committee of one active and one hon
orary member from each of the fif
teen States in the Northern Jurisdic
tion for the establishment of a char
itable foundation. Such a plan will 1
relieve the Supreme Council of a vast
amount of work and would insure tne
best possible administration.
•Important Rulings on
Corporation Reports
Rulings in regard to filing of re
ports lor taxation in the department of
the auditor general, which procedure
is the basis for collection of millions
of dollars worth of State revenue, are
made by Deputy Attorney General W.
.VI. Hargest In opinions given to
Auditor General A. W. Powell to-day.
lie holds that the Auditor General
may extend time for filing of reports
by corporations included within the
scope of the act of June 2, 1915, for a
period of thirty days after March 31
"and that he may, in his discretion,
grant such extension as to cover the
reports which have been liied •within
tiie time, although no extension was
previously given." This opinion was
given on an inquiry by the Auditor
General whether a penalty should be
imposed for failure of a corporation,
comprising a system, to tile its report
by March 31. It filed on April 23.
In the second opinion Mr. Hargest
answers an inquiry whether under the
acts of 1897 and 1907 banks and trust
companies whose reports are not tiled
on or before June 20 are liable to
penalty by saying that owing to word
ing of forms that "it would be in
equitable to impose any penalty upon
banks or trust companies which filed
their reports promptly for the year
ending June 20, 1916, even though
they were not received until a few days
thereafter."
