They Didn't Have to Change. During tho yearr in which our pur* food lawa have been put Into effect there has b< n a great hurrying and scurrying on the part of the food man ufacturers to change their methods to make them conform to the law. The Quaker Oats Company is a con spicuous exception. It was admitted that Quaker Oats was as pure and ' clean as possible and that it was aa 1 ideal food. it Is so cheap that any one can af ford it and so nourishing that every one needs it. The result of last year's experiments at Yale and other points where food values were tested is that Quak? r Oats has been adopted by many persons as their food on which they rely for adding vigor and endur ance of muscle and bruin. This Bplendld food is packed in the regular si/.e package and in hermet ically sealed tins. Tho latter espe cially adapted to hot climates. 4 JTST FOR l'TX. Once Mas KllOtlgll.
