modem traffic rf that type has yet
provided.
Th.<> bridge Uaa been formally open
ed with a great cleebaration. It was
stalled in 1917 the con3trction was
interrupted for a period of 20 months
by the war; and then it moved along
smoothly to completion. The cost cf
the bridge was betwc.cn $175,00 and
|00,000. Its construction is of reinforc
ed concre, with sufficients height to
the spans for small boats to pass at
any point, while large crafts are ac
commodated by a drew span near the

Combine Slips Yellow Men Into
Florida by Way of Cuba.
Few Places Where Schooners Cannot
Make Easy Landing on Coast
line of Southern State.
Tnnipn, Fla.—Chinese are being
smuggled Into the United Slates
on a large scale by way of Culiu and
Florida, according to reports from the
South. Unless prompt action Is tnkpn
by authorities tit Washington, condi
tions will soon be as bnd In the sotiih-
ern states as they were on the Mexi
can border, where It took five years
to stamp out the smuggling of the yel
low men, says Immigration Inspector
Whalen of Tampa, Fin,, in whose dis
trict much of the smuggling lias been
going on.
“We have learned that within the
past few months almost 75,000 Chinese
have been landed in Cuhu,’’ says
Whalen. "According to the state
ments we got from some of the. smug
gling parties that we have rounded
up, these Chinese remain In Cuba only
long enough to mnke arrangements
with the smugglers to be landed on
the Florida coast.
“The fact that nil the Chinese who
have been arrested In this vicinity are
plentifully supplied with money and
are able to obtain unlimited funds to
defray court expenses Indicates thnt
there Is a well-organized smuggling
combine at work."
The latest arrests In the smuggling
war were in Charleston, S. C., where
four Chinese were picked up, with
railroad tickets from Clearwater,
Fla., a short distance from Tampa, to
Washington, D. O. Six more were ar
rested the same day at Dunedan, Fla.,
also near Tampa. These six were taken
when they tried to buy railroad tick
ets to Washington.
The coast of Florida Is an Ideal
place for smuggling operations as
there aie only a few places along the
entire l,40i miles of coast line whete
schooners cannot make an easy land-
lag.

monotony of their Isolation, nnd
showed a settled melancholy, both In
their faces ami the cadence of their
voices," says Dr. Peck.
The teeth of flying foxes which
swarm in caves on the island seem
to I e (bo only form of currency known

What Is Every Mother’s Hope
For Her Children?
Sturdy, energetic children radiating health, are
a source of pride and joy to their parents. And
their development depends largely on their food.
Children, undernourished and unwisely fed are
weak and unhealthy, and many times anemic. Disease
easily grasps them, for their undeveloped constitu
tions are unable to resist the disease germs.
No food will have greater influence in making
your children vigorous and healthy than Grape-Nuts.
Served with milk or cream, Grape-Nuts is an ideal
body, brain and nerve food. It is made from wheat
and barley. Grape-Nuts offers a high food value,
and it is as delicious as it is heahhfliL
Children find delight in the crisp, sweet rich-
of Grape-Nuts.

and you'll agree “There’s a Reason 1 * for Grape-Nuts.
