Hobson's Statement.
Mr Hobson also made a statement
tu the public before Ills depurtur*.
Hu said:
‘T’lease sny to the liquor Interest*
of America that we have only begun
to fight; that the work we have done
can never he undone; that we will
meet them again on the battlefield of
Alabama and on a hundred other bat
tlefields; that we expect under Ood's
providence to he In the battle when
the thirty-sixth slate ratifies the Hob
son resolution plsrlng .national prohi
bition In the constitution of the United
State* It will be a fight to the hit
ter end and [ look for success. The
fight has Just begun."
Representative Hobson was asked If
Ills statement meant that he proposed
to return to Alabama and Slake tips
fight against Senator Bankhead for
election to the United States senate.
“Sufficient unto the dny I* the evil
thereof w»* his quoted reply.
In 67 Counties.
Birmingham, Ala. Incomplete re
turns from practically all of the sixty
■even counties In the state today ap
parently substantiated early predic
tions that Oscar W. Underwood had
defeated Richmond Pearson Hobson
for nomination to the Alabama tong
term In the United States senate.
Counting of the votes cast at Demo
cratic primaries throughout the state
yeaterday progressed very siowly to
day, especially in the larger cities.
Only four city precincts had complet
ed the count in Jefferson County at
9:30 toda' Thirty-nine out of 52 pre
elnets In the county gave Underwood
2,0fil voles and Hobson 1,600.
Extremely Close.
State returns showed an extremeiy
close race between Ray Kushton, of
Montgomery, and Frank S. White, oi
lllmiingham. for the short term nom
ination to the United States senate,
which will expire March 4 1915. The
gubernatorial contest continued to ap
pear one oT the most exciting of tne
list Former Uov. 11. B. Comer main
tained a alight plurality throughout
the early part of today. H F Kolg,
of Montgomery, and Chas. Henderson,
of Troy, were running a close race
for second place They had been
credited with such a largo number
of votes at 9:30 that hers seemed lit
tle probability of Comer receiving a
majority.
Second Primary,
If uon» of the candidates receives
« majority, a second primary between
the two leading candidates will be
held May tlth. at which time similar
contests between other state officers
will be settled and a United States
senator for the short term will be
formally elected. Returns from the
eight congressional contests indicate
interesting races in the first, eighth,
ninth and sixth districts. To all up
pearances Representatives Taylor, of
the first district, has been defeated
for nomination by O. 1., Gray, of Caoe
taw County. Geo Huddleston, of Jef
ferson County, was leading his tnree
opponents in the fight for the nomi
nation front the ninth district to suc
ceed Representative Underwood.
To Succeed Hobson.
It was generally believed from re
turns available that Win. R Rank
head, son of the United States senator
from Alabama, had won the notuina
tion In the sixth district to succeed
Representative Hobsoji
Judge K I. Almond of Co’bcrt
County, seemed assured of the nomi
nation from the eighth district to suc

Richardson There are three other
candidates for this nomination.

Speaking of the harmful effects of baker’s whits bread, Dr. Edison
Smith says: ‘Baker’s bread is an abomination to the stomach. Its fine
flour, its yeast and its undextrinized starch make it largely undigestible.
Only the well-baked outer crusts is fit to eat.’ ’’—Rutledge Rutherford in
Nat'l Food Maqcizine, February , 1912.
Some 17 years ago there was originated a food designed to avoid the objectionable quailties
of white flour products.
That food is
G rape-N u ts
It established a standard of digestibility and food value hitherto unapproaehed in any
cereal food.
This object was attained
By building Grape-Nuts from the two greatest of food-grains—-wheat and barley—and bak
ing and relinking it until the starchy parts were converted into dextrose (grape-sugar) or so
thoroughly doxtrinized as to require but little effort to digest.
Grape-Nuts digests usually in about one hour
(White Bread requires about 3 1-2 hours for digestion.)
In the milling of white flour, nearly all the “vital” mineral salts of the grain (such as
phosphorus, lime, iron, sulphur, etc.) are thrown out with the bran-coat, just to make the flour
look \Giite and pretty. %
These phosphate s. or mineral salts, are positively demanded by Nature in order to build
normal bodies, brains and nerves, and in their lack physicians find one great cause of impover
ish d blood, listlessness, nervous prostration, kidney disease, etc.
Grape-Nuts, on the other hand, retains ALL the vital phosphates so richly grown by Na
ture in .wheat and barley, as well as ALL the other nutritive elements of the grain. It provides
these well-balaneed values in a convenient, appetizing food, ready to eat from the package,
fresh, crisp, and untouched Uv human hand
A ration of Grape-Nuts with regular meals supplies admirably what
white bread lacks. '
