!. GRAPE-NUTS :
FOOD.
A RATIONAL FOOD CURE.
ARHAARARAAAAAAI

One of the well known grocers in
Washington. D. c., who supplies the
food for many of the brainy, represent
ative men of the country, says: "I
have become an enthusiastic consumer
of Grape-Nuts. It has constituted
solely my morning and evening meal
for the past eight months. Previous
to this. worn out with overwork, brok-
en- down in health, dyspepsia having
led to Bright's disease, heart trouble
and what not, I was given UP to die.
This food came to my notice through
one of my customers. The name sug-
gested something in the dessert line
dried fruit. prunes, raisins or the like,
and when put it in the store, a glance
at the label persuaded me to make a
trial personally.
had at the store for my supper, a
dish and half dish, and was Impress
ed, perhaps unfavorably, with its rich
ness. perceiving at the same time how
very appropriately the new food was
named. Strange as it may appear, its
effect was almost at once apparent.
Seated that evening at my home, I re-
marked to my family that it was the
first time in a whole year that I had
felt like myself. / was much eIated
and naturally attributed the change to
Grape-Nuts. My improvement since
then has been continuous, my health is
better than ever before, I look ten
years younger and am untiring in
strength" (The gentleman does not
care to have his name quoted publicly,
but his store can be found at 726 Eigh-
teenth Street, Washington. D. c.
Now for the reason. The man or
woman worn out with overwOrk or
nervous -prOstratiOn viii find an i'm
mediate gain in strength by the use of
Grape-Nuts and cream, because of the
fact that the natural phosphate of
potash obtained from certain parts of
the grains, is one of the strong ele-
ments in Grape-Nuts, and this is pre-
sented to the system in the form de-
manded by nature; not as a drug.
The system takes up the needed
particles of phosphate of potash and it
is now known that the soft gray mat
ter which fills the delicate nerve cen
the brain and the solar plexus, can
only be made and renewed from day to
day by the action of phosphate of
potash on albumen. Albumen is one
of the principal elements of all food.
Dut unless albumen has with it in the
system a sufficient amount of phos-
phate of potash. it cannot be trans
formed into brain matter without the
action of this particular element, for
there is no known way to make gray
albumen and phosphate of potash
Therefore, when one uses Grape
Nuts, he makes use OF the best scien-
tif1c knowledge of the day in the selec-
tion of food for invigorating and
re-VftaliZing the body. This food has
and it is to be found in every first
class grocery store. Grape-NutS are
made by the Postum Co., at their fac
tories in Battle Greek.

NEW KANSAS PAPER
It Is Published at olpe, In Lyon
County.

A new paper, a weekly, has made its
appearance at the state historical soci-
ETY. rooms. 1t is the first publication
attempted at Olpe, a small town Is
miles south of EmpOria on the Howard
branch of the Santa F'e.
The new paper is the Olpe Optic and
it starts out with a good advertising
patronage. The editor and~prOprietOr
is Ezra r. Trask, who was among the
first printers to land in Kansas when
the state was being settled. Trask is
truly a pioneer printer and the older
men in the business now in Kansas
will remember him and be ready to say
a good word for his declining years
which he insists upon spending in 4
printing office, not on f1OWery beds of
ease, but standing on a small box At
the case picking out the type to set up
the items which he carries in his head,
Trask seldom uses copy, unless it is
contributed. He goes out on the street,
picks up local news items, goes back to
the Office and puts them in type.
The venerable editor has been pub
fishing a paper at Madison for some
years.

Topeka Soldiers Compelled to Aban-

Chief of Police Ramsey has received
a letter from his son Charles, a corpor-
al in the Twentieth Kansas, saying
that he and Sergeant Robert Maxwell
are contemplating a trip through Eur
ope.
The letter was written some time be-
fore the regiment sailed and stated
that if they could obtain their dis
charge in Manila or Hong Kong they
would go to Naples and tramp from
there through Italy and Switzerland,
attend the Paris exposition and return
home in about year from now. If the
two globe trotters,' as they would be
if they carry out their journey, cannot
obtain their discharges the trip Will
have to be abandoned.

IRON BOOMING SOUTH.
Output of Furnaces Sold Far into
Next Year.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept 19.-The
iron situation throughout the south, be-
cause of the unprecedented demand, is
serious.
Many furnaces in the Tennessee and
Alabama districts are sold so far ahead
that it is impossible for foundry men
and smaller consumers to obtain iron
from them at any figure. Most of the
furnaces have orders sufficient to con-
sumo their full production far into next
year Iron in the Chattanooga and
Birmingham districts is selling as high
as SIS and $3.50 per ton, and it is freely
predicted that $50 iron will be a reality
within the next thirty days.

He Wants the Paris Exposition Boy
cotted by Congress

W: A. Calderhead, representing the
Fifth congressional district was in the
city last night on his way to Arkansas
City to address the reunion now in pro-
gress there Calderhead is very bitter in
his denunciation of the French govern
ment for permitting such fiasco of the
Dreyfus trial. He SAYS:
Unless the French government should
do something to change the sentiment of
the public at this time I am inclined to
the opinion that congress will make no
additional appropriations for the Paris
exposition
Mr.. Calderhead suggests that Americans
boycott the fair and in this he utters a
sentiment which hundreds Of people are
talking every day in Kansas.

PLANTING ORCHARDS.
Ex- Governor Morrill, Will Raise More
Fruit.

Ex-Governor Morrill, came to To-
peka yesterday to confer with Judge
Fred WellhOuse concerning the plant
ing of an orchard. Mr. Morrill, is en-
gaginsy in the orchard business exten-
siVely, having planted over 400 acres in
fruit trees last season. The unfortun-
ate part of the ex-governOr's effort is
found in the fact that nearly all of the
400 acres of trees died and he has the
work to do over again.
The ex-governor visited the state
house yesterday afternoon and called
upon the state officers who We're at
their places of business. Governor
Stanley was out of town so the stay at
the executive Office was very short.

SENATOR PERKINS POSITION.

United States Senator George c.
Perkins has in so many words said to
the Legislature that is to convene to-
morrow: II am opposed to ratifying
the treaty of peace concluded with
SPAIN But if I am instructed to the
contrary I Will obey that instruction"
AS a matter of course, silence on the
part of the Legislature after that
means acquiescence in what the Sena-
tor proposes to do, namely. vote
against the treaty Of peace with Spain.
This puts the Legislature to the test.
1t cannot, of course, afford to place
California in the category of commune
ties opposed to the treaty. But one
thing then remains, namely, to imme-
diately issue its instructions to both
of our Senators at Washington. At
least one of them we know will obey
that instruction, for he has said so.
Indeed, he has invited it to justify his
course.
Senator Perkins is previously mis-
taken He confounds ratification with
final disposition of the islands ceded
by the treaty. He would send the
whole question Of peace or war back
to another commission, or commit 1t to
the slow and tedious processes of diplo-
matte correspondence. OF course, Sec
ond terms would not be as good as
those we now have, since rejection
would indicate to Spain that our people
do not commend and approve the ac-
ton Of the treaty commission. The
result might be. then. one Of two

THE DAY.

"A new year is born into the life Of
time. To-day we take up the hopes and
burdens. cares and joys of another
round in existence, that brings all
nearer to the end when we shall cease
to count the years or number the
hours. But whatever our lot we ought
to press the threshold of the new year
with no uncertain tread. There is much
to be thankful for in the past and still
more to be hopeful of in the future.
The Nation has passed through a
year Of wonderful events. 1t has risen
by the vindication it has given the
cause Of mercy. from the low plane
of fourth rate power to be one of
the foremost among the nations of the
earth. Famine and pestilence have not
invaded our borders. and commercially
we are upon the top wave of high
prosperity In our dealings with the
peoples Of earth the past year, we
have made all the world our debtor
and we enter the new year with the
largest balance to our credit and the
greatest volume OF trade known In our
annals
We have broadened our garments and
have taken under our benefcent pro-
fiction lands and peoples who have for
centuries been ground beneath the OPP
pressor's heel. We have proved the
nsettle Of our navy and the courage of
our soldiery, and have demonstrated
once more the breadth and strength
there is in the reserve power of the
American people.
In this State, while we have no espe-
cial cause for rejoicing, we have to
be thankful that we are blessed as we
are. Such ills as come to us in threat
ened drouth, and retarded industries
let us bear uncomplainingly and brave
~, hopeful for the better days at hand.
So let US enter the new year with
hearts buoyant and heads erect Muir
muring eases no pain and heals no
wounds, and regrets restore no past.
Let US look forward only, greet all
mankind with the wish for a Happy
New Year, and our fellows with the
grasp of the fraternal and helping
hand
