Good Work by a Travelling Man.

A travelling man, Mr.. julius c. Meyer,
of 175 Fairlawn street, Cleveland, has
cured a number of his friends of stom-
Rch troubles, dyspepsia, bowel complaints,
etc, by urging the use of Grapc-Nuts
breakfast food. He says:
"A business man, a friend Of mine. was
so run down that he left his business
several months because he could not eat
enough to supply the strength required
to work. After spending hundreds of dol
lars in journeys to mineral springs for
baths, in medicines, attendants, etc, with
out success, ] recommended Grape Nuts
food, and at the end of thirty days he
told me he never enjoyed a better appe-
tite, was never more energetic OF felt
more like work than then. This change
came around entirely by reason of his
leaving off the ordinary food and using
principally Grape-Nuts at his meals He
said he would not be without the food at.
a dollor a pound.
"A lady friend OF my wife was suffer-
ing so with dyspepsia that she was COM
PEELED to give up her work, as no food
would stay on her stomach for five min
utes. The doctors told her there was no
hope for her ever enjoying food of any
kind She started in on Grape-Nuts and
used nothing else for about three months,
when she was completely cured and ready
to attend to her business. She takes
Grape-Nuts with her every day. She
said to my wife: Had it not been for you
and Grape-Nuts, surely would have
died. I shall never forget your kindness
to me-
I'm my own family we have used the
food for about a year, constantly, and
have all enjoyed better health since its
introduction 1t has done us more GOOD
than we ever expected to get from a
food"
There is a deep, underlying reason why
Grape-Nuts food cures people Of dyspep-
sia, and builds them up into asf1ne condi-
tion of health and strength. Certain
principles are abstracted from the grains
and made up into the food known as
Grape-Nuts, producing a powerful, con-
centrated food that gives certain and we'll
defined results. The proof is in the eat
ing. There are hundreds of thousands
of people that can give testimony regard
Ing the strengthening properties of this ia
NOUS food.

! RAILROAD AT NOME.

Surveys have been completedfor rail-
way from point near Port Clarence
to Council City, a distance Of eighty
five miles. The line will tap the richest
of the Nome country and will run
about thirty-five miles northeast Of
Nome City The matter has been dis
cussed of extending the line from the
present proposed terminus Of Council
City TO Nulato, on the Yukon, which
would give a main line track of a lit
tie over 800 miles.
Most of the country through which
the proposed extension would pass has
not been prospectedi but there are many
districts en- route that are known to
contain valuable deposits, and it is pre-
sumed that the whole country In time
viii be worked. OF course. 1t would not
be the purpose to build this exten-
sion during the coming year, but II the
plan appears feasible it is not unlikely
that a survey will be made.
The line from Port Clarence to Coun-
ell City, however, will be considered
during the coming summer and 1t will
be a valuable assistance in the develop
ment Of that country. 1t will furnish
transportation to many Of the rich dis
tricts and this is just as important a
matter in Alaska as 1t is In Oregon.
