"The White Flour
Pinch" —have you felt
it? With the advancing
price of wheat "the five-cent
loaf is doomed," say the
bakers. In its place we
have the six-cent loaf—in
>nany cities only the ten
cent loaf. A loaf of white
flour bread is not a complete
ration. However whole
some and pure, it does not
supply all the prote ids the
krtuman body needs. In
shredded Wheat Biscuit
you have all the body-build
ing nutriment in the whole
wheat grain prepared in a
digestible form. It is always
the same price, always the
same high quality. Eat it for
breakfast with milk or
cream or with fruits. Made

Crisis on Saloon Issue
St. Ixiuis, Mo.. Dec. 11. The atti
tude of the great labor organizations of
this country on the liquor question
must soon be decided, according to the
Commission on Temperance of the Fed
eral Council of the Churches of Christ
In America, which reported at the ses
sion of the quadrenniel meeting of the
council.
In its report tho commission speaks
of "a big light in the labor federation
coming soon." It says:
"Various groups in the federation
have from time to time made an at
tempt to open the discussion, and there
is no doubt that, in the near future, the
entire question will be discussed by the
American Federation of l^abor.
"Such pressure is being brought to
bear by the liquor Interests that tho
Federation must decide definitely where
it stands. This will result in the bit
terest fight that has ever taken place
at any convention of the Federation."

'What's the matter with you?"
Seated in the lobby of the De la Tax
on Sunday morning, Mr. Trimmer turn
ed a disapproving eye upon the lank
Englishman at his side as he made
this query. And his question was not
without good foundation, for the as
pirant to the title of Lord Harrowby
was at the moment a jelly quaking
with fear.
"Fawncy meeting you after all these
years," said poor old George In an un
certain treble.
"Come, come!" cried Mr. Trimmer.
'Tut a little more authority into your
voice. You can't walk up and claim
your rights with your knees dancing
the tango. This Is the moment we've
been looking forward to. Act deter
mined. Walk into that room upstairs
as though you were walking into Rake
dale hall to take charge of it."
"Allan, don't you know me? I'm
your brother George," went on the
Englishman, Intent on rehearsing.
"More like It," said Trimmer. "Put
the lire Into It. You're not expecting a
thrashing, you know. You're expecting
the title and recognition that belong
to you. I wish I was the real Lord
Harrowby. I guess I'd show 'em a
thing or two."
"I wish you was," agreed poor old
George sadly. "Somehow I don't seem
to have the spirit I used to have."
In Lord Harrowby's suit that gentle
man sat in considerable nervousness,
awaiting the undesired encountsr.
With him sat Miss Meyrick and her
father, whom he had thought it neces
sary to invite to witness the ordaal.
Richard Minot uneasily paced the floor,
avoiding as much as possible the
glances of Miss Meyrlck's brown eyes.
Ten o'clock was upon him, and Mr.
Minot was no nearer a plan of action
than he had been the preceding night
Every good press agent is not with
out a live theatrical sense, and Mr.
Trimmer was no exception. He left
his trembling claimant in the entrance
hall and strode into the room.
"Good morning," he said brightly.
"Here we are, on time to the minute.
Ah! I beg your pardon!"
Lord Harrowby performed brief In
troductions, which Mr. Trimmer effu
sively acknowledged. Then lie turned
dramatically toward his lordship.
"Out here in the hallway stands a
poor, broken creature," he began.
"Your own flesh and blood, Allan nar
lowby." Obviously Mr. Trimmer had
prepared speeches for himself as well
as for poor old George. "For twenty
i odd and impecunious years," he went
"I Ached All Over"
Says W. P. Doughter
West Fail-view Man Tells How He
Knocked Out His Stomach
Trouble
TANLAC HELPED HIM
"My stomach was raising- old hob
with me," says W. P. Doughter, a fire
man at the Pipe Bending Works, who
lives at West Fairview. Pa., "it sure
had me down and out.'"
"Couldn't eat a th: without pav
ing up for it with he of suffering.
I'd t jll up with gas ana ; clch up great
quantities and my stomach would
burn as if I had swallowed a red hot
clinker."
"And how my head used to ache.
I felt if I could only take a slicer bar
and give her a good cleaning out she'd
feel better. I thought sometimes she
was going to bust wide open."
"I slept rotten, too. Never could
get more than two or three hours a
night and I felt tired out and had
aches and pains all over me all the
time."
"But since I've been taking Tanlac,
oh what a difference in the morning.
I feel tine all over. 1 sleep like a top
and wake up hungry as a bear and
rested up. And what I cat doesn't
bother me a bit either. Tanlac sure
is great stuff for fixing up a bum stom
ach."
Tanlac, the famous reconstructive
tonic is now being introduced here at
Gorgas' Drug Store where the Tanlac
man is meeting the people and ex
plaining the merits of this master
medicine. —Advertisement.

on, "this man lias beeu denied his
Just heritage. We are here this morn
ing to perform a duty"—
"My dear fellow." broke in Harrow
by wearily, "why should you inflict
oratory upon us? Bring In this—er—
gentleman."
"That I will," replied Trimmer hearti
ly. "And when you have heard his
story, digested his evidence, I am
sure"—
"Yes, yes. Bring him in."
Mr. Trimmer stepped to the door.
He beckoned. A very reluctant figure
shuffled In. George's face was green
with fright. His knees rattled togeth
er. He made altogether a ludicrous
picture, and Mr. Trimmer himself not
ed this with sinking heart.
"Allow me," said Trimmer theatrical
ly. "George, Lord Harrowby!"
George cleared his throat, but did
not succeed in dislodging his heart,
which was there at the moment
"Fawncy seeing you after all those
years," he mumbled weakly to no one
in particular.
"Speak up!" said Spencer Meyrick
sharply.
. "Who Is it you're talking to?"
"To him," explained George, nodding
toward Lord Harrotvby. "To my
brother Allan. Don't you know me,
Allan? Don't you know"—
He stopped. An expression of sur
prise and relief swept over his worried
face. He turned triumphantly to Trim
mer.
"1 don't have to prove "who I am to
him," he onnounced.
"Why don't you?" demanded Trim
mer In alarm.
"Because he can't, I fancy," put In
Lord Ilurrowby.
"No," said George slowly, "because
I never saw him before In all my
life."
"Ah, you admit It!" cried Allan Har
rowby with relief.
"Of course I do," replied George. "I
never saw you before in my life."
"And you've never been at Rake
dale Hall, have you?" Lord Harrow
by demanded.
"Here—wait a minute!" shouted
Trimmer, in a panic.
"Oh, yes, I've been at Rakedalo
Hall." said the claimant firmly. "I
spent my boyhood there. But you've
never been there."
"I—what"—
"You've never been at Rakedale
Hall. Why? Because you're not Al
lan Harrowby! That's why."
A deathly silence fell. Only a little
traveling clock on the mantel was ar
ticulate.
"Absurd, ridiculous!" cried Lord Har
rowby.
"Talk about Impostors," cried George,
his spirit and ills courage sweeping
back, "you're one yourself! I wish
I'd got a good look at you sooner. I'd
have put a stop to all this. Allan Har
rowby, eh? I gues not. I guess I'd
know my own brother if I saw him.
I guess I know the Harrowby features.
I give you twenty-four hours to get
out of town, you blooming fraud!"
"The man's crazy," Allan Harrowby
cried. "Raving mad. He's an im
postor. This is a trick of his." He
looked helplessly around the circle. In
every face he saw doubt, questioning.
"Good heavens, you're not going to lis
ten to him? He's come here to prove
that he's George Harrowby. Why
doesn't he do it?"
"I'll do it," said George sweetly,
"when I meet a real Harrowby. In the
meantime I give you twenty-four hours
to get out of town. You'd better go."
Victorious, George turned toward the
door. Trimmer, lost between ndmira
tion and doubt, turned also.
"Take my advice," George proclaim
ed. "Make him prove who he is. That
is the important point now. What
does it matter to you who I am?
Nothing. But it matters a lot about
him. Make him prove that he's Allan
Harrowby."
And with the imperious manner that
he should have adopted on entering the
V°om George Harrowby left it. Mr.
Trimmer, eclipsed for once, trotted at
his side.
"Suy," cried Trimmer in the hall, "Is
that on the level? Isn't he Allan Har
rowby ?"
"I should say not," said George
frandly. "Doesn't look anything like
Allan."
Trimmer chortled in glee.
"Great stuff!'' he cried. "I guess we
tossed a bomb, eh? Now we'll run
him out of town."
"Oh, no," said George. "We've done
our work here. Let's go over to Lon
don now and see the pater."
"That we will," cried Trimmer—
"that we will! By gad, I'm proud of
you today, Lord Harrowby!"
Inside Allan Harrowby's suit three
pairs of questioning eyes were turned
on that harassed nobleman. He fidget
ed In his chair.
"I say," he pleaded, "It's all his
bluff, you know."
"Maybe,'' said old Spencer Meyrick,
rising. "But. Harrowby, or whatever
your name is, there's altogether too
much three ring circus about this wed
ding to suit me. My patience Is ex
hausted, sir, clean exhausted. Things
look queer to me—have right along
I'm more than Inclined to believe what
that fellow paid."
