Men Under Arrest at Chicago Charged
with Extensive Frauds.

CHICAGO, Oct 27. 1sOo-Two alleged
Hwindlers, who. by means of clever for
geries and bogus passes, are thought to
have within the past three years secured
thousands Of dollars from railroad COM
panies and scalpers in all parts of the
Emitted States, have been arrested here
G g. Rosenberg and E. p Ashby are
The names given by the prisoners. They
were arrested at the Dearborn Street
Station as they were about to board a
Er'ain for Cincinnati
In two valises which they carried were
FOUND hundreds Of passes bearing names
pf railroad officials. all of which are
thought to be forgeries, together with
many rubber stamps and letters con-
tanning signatures from which they were
made.
At the Grand Pacific Hotel. Rosenberg
registered from Eastman. Penn. and
Ashby from Bethlehem, Penn Rosen-
berg is apparently thirty-flve years old,
and Ashby gave his age as forty.
A signature of James c. Cassell, Pas
senger Agent of the Norfolk and West

ing the arrest Of the two men.
Chief of Detectives Collern says that
be has ascertained positively that the
names given BY the arrested men are
fictitious. but that he has not yet been
Ab1s to learn their real names.

MIND AND FOOD.
Kind OF Food that Affects the Mind.

zone of the most remarkable effects of
the food Grape-Nuts is the effect on
the mind; it makes one feel buoyant,
hopeful, and cheerful says Alice L.
Glunt, of 2422 Broad ST., Altoona, Pa
She continues: s.As result of prolonged
mental work, was stricken with par
alysis of the right side about two years
and half ago. For about two years I
was treated constantly with powerful
drugs to stimulate the nerve centers,
with only partial success.
About six months ago I was threat
ened with nervous proStration again,
when a friend advised me to eat Grape
Nuts food. l was entirely SkepticaI con-
corning any beneficial results, but find
ing the food very palatable, I bought
package after package, and since begin
ming the use of Grape-Nuts have taken
no medicine or nerve ton1cs OF any kind,
and the effect of this perfect food on
my health is something very remarkable.
All headaches, insomnia, and a dis
agreeable cough, and my symptoms of
paralysis have disappeared.
Il am satisfied that all the ills that
have suffered were due to the fact that
lived just as thousands of others who
think they are well fed, but are in a
state of semi starvation, owing to i'm
perfect assimilation of food. The nerve
centers cannot be properly nourished
and rebuilt except by good food and
Hated Grape Nuts food is the most
perfect food I have ever seen, and I
know of its value from practical re-
SUITS
This is another evidence of the fact
that Grape-Nuts food contains the phos
plate of potash which uniteS with al
bumen to make the gray matter IN the
nerve eenters and brain Any brain
worker who values health, strength, and
vigor, should pay heed to the character
of food he uses
