STRUCK 1T RICH

When They Needed 1t Bad.
'When a two months old baby refuses
to nurse and cannot digest any Of the
baby foods or cows milk prepared in
different ways, we must do something or
lose the baby. That was the condition
Of our little one about year and a half
ago.
"we tried every baby food on the mar
ket, beside the cows milk, but nothing
seemed to agree with him. He suffered
from Indigestion, until BY the time he
was nine months old, he had grown SO
weak and emaciated that we didn't { think
he could live. At last his stomach re-
fused to take anything, and for three
days the little fellow was actually starv-
ing for something he could digest.
Il happened to have box OF Grape
Nuts in the house and getting a teaspoon
ful, poured little hot water over 1t, let
ting the food stand few minutes, then
gave the baby the brown E=eter which
had the strength Of the Grape-NNts in it.
He could take but two spoonfuls at
time and then rest a while.
His stomach retained the food and
after one days use OF the Graae-Nuts in
this way, his bowels were righk, for the
first time in Elk months, l continued to
feed him the water from the Grape-N
and little cream and later on the
sottened food itself and he steadily i'm
proved, his little body and limbs begin
ming to get round and plump, and by the
time he was a year old, he was as large
again as when nine months old. At Is
months he weighed 28 pounds, and now
at Is months, he is a great, fat, jolly
baby climbing and going every here,
fun Of tun, rosy cheeks, and bright eyes.
During all this time his food has been

later OH he had the food itself. He is the
BEST Advertisement Grape-Nuts could have
IN this town, for every one knew his con-
dition and no one thought he could pos
sloy live We give all the praise to this
most valuable food ,and never lose an op-
portunity to recommend It to persons
suffering from Indigestion and lack of
nourishment." Mrs. @. d. Johnston,
Greenfield, Ind.
Actual proof is better than all theory,
yet 1t Is well to know that Grape-Nuts

purpose. The most powerful elements
IN wheat and barley are used and 50 pre-
pared as to furnish the human body
with those food elements, predigested in
natural manner. That is, turned from
starch into grape sugar.

'e5es and easy enough of digestion Gas

The REPORT ArnInst CI.rl,.

Senator Chandler from the Senate COM
mittee on privileges and elections submitted
to the Senate Monday the report Of that
committee in the case of Senator Clark of
Montana. The report does not rehearse
the testimony, but simply presents the find
ing of the committee and the reasons for
its course. The finding of the committee
is that the election to the Senate Of VIM.
A. Clark of Montana is null and void on
account of briberies attempted briberies and
corrupt practices by his agents, and
violation of the laws of Montana defining
and Furnishing crimes against the elective
franchise. In view of this finding
the committee reports and unani-
mously recommends the adoption by the
Senate of the following resolution: Re
solved, That VIM. A. Clark was not duly
and legally elected to a seat in the Senate Of
the United States by the legislature of the
state of Montana" The report concludes
with a strong recommendation for early
consideration Of the case.

Death of E1-Judge Barrett.

Judge James Barrett, the oldest member
of the Rutland county bar, died on
Saturday last, at his home, the imme
diAte cause of his death being heart
trouble. Judge Barrett's system has
been undergoing general breaking
down for some time, and for several
weeks he had been confined to his bed from
acute attacks of heart failure.
James Barrett was born in Strafford,
May 81, 1914. He graduated from Dart
mouth college in the class of 1888, and sub
sequently read law, first at Buffalo, n. Y,
and later with Charles Marsh of Wood
stock. He was admitted TO the bar in 1910
and entered upon practice at Woodstock,
where he lived tor many years, save for
one years residence (1s4S-49) in Boston.
After his retirement from the bench
Judge Barrett took up his residence in
Rutland, where he suffered Feb. 10, 1897, a
crushing bereavement in the death by &C
cident of his son, James c. Barrett, who,
although but a young man, had already
attained position in the very front rank
of the Vermont bar
Judge Barrett married Sept. "a, 1874,
Maria Lord, daughter of Simeon Woodwork
of Coventry, Conn, and nine children were
the fruit Of the union. Until lately, Judge
Barrett had continued his professional &C
tivity.
In addition Judge Barrett was a partner
of the father of George P. Marsh, and
later Of Linden Marsh, a brother of Prof.
Marsh, and for five years of Jacob Cola
mer. He was a member of the firm OF
Tracy, Converse & Barrett.

Warm Weather Acts Like Magic en- Coz
cOOns---TIms 10 XIII Them.
The apple tree worms are just making
their appearance and will soon be gathered
in swarms on the limbs Of the apple and
maple trees. Now is the time to destroy
them by picking OIL the hard crusted nests
wherein lay millions of the eggs which
have already begun to hatch, Here are a
few notes on spraying sent out by the Yer
mont Experiment station:
There is a notion current in some parts
of Vermont, as well as in other states, that
fruit trees ought to be sprayed just at the
time they are in blossom. Some dissatis-
faction has been shown by fruit growers,
on this. account, with alaw making it pun
ishable misdemeanor to spray trees while
in blossom. This law was passed at the re
quest of the bee keepers, but it is Of even
greater Importance to the fruit growers
though at their instance it was finally re-
pealed. The observations here reported
tend to show more clearly the value of the
honey bee to the horticulturist. Further
more it may be said that spraying when
trees are in blossom is entirely useless. 1t
is q. waste of time and spraying material;
it may be directly injurious to the blossoms;
and it may kill the bees. There is every
thing against it and nothing in its favor.
Spray before blossoming and after the pet
ais fall but never While the flowers are
