GRAPE-NUTS CURE.
Good Food Works Salvation.

when | began the use Of Grape
Nuts food for breakfast. | was suffer
| ing with nervous and stomach troubles.
| found that Grape Nuts furnished a
| nourishing, satisfying meal. that the
stomach took to beautifully. l feel so
much more satisfied and well-fed after
! a meal of Grape Nuts, and do not have
that disagreeabe gorged and tight
feeling in the stomach which 50 often
used to accompany my meals when |
was using other foods.
This proves to mo that Grape-Nuts
food is a highly condensed and nour-
ishing food which satisfies the system
as no other food does, and causes no
Indigestion. 1t is a Godsend to all
sufferers of stomach and nervous
troubles.
Il have several neighbors who are
using both Postum Cereal Coffee and
Grape Nuts. and they wonder how
they ever did without either since
learning how good and beneficial they
are One lady has a family Of growing
school children. She says they use
nothing else for their luncheon at noon
but Grape Nuts with milk. They all
enjoy the food very much and feel well
fed. She states that when the chill
dren come in from school, they are not
starved for a piece of something to
eat. as they formerly We're when they
lunched from all other foods.
This has convinced her that Grape
Nuts food sustains the system longer
than any other food. The fact that it
is thoroughly cooked and ready for
immediate serving is of great value
especially when one is in a hurry.
Please do not publish my name" The
name of this lady can be had by ap-
plication to the Postum Cereal Co,

London. April $50 A. M.-Not a
word regarding the disaster at Red
dersburg has been allowed to come
through except the dispatch of Lord
Roberts. 1t is therefore impossible To
form any notion as to what has hap
pened. Meanwhile the British public
Is beginning to realize the immense
difficulties to be overcome even before
Pretoria is reached. and is revising pre-
mature ideas with respect to the time
when the war will be over. No one
now believes that it will have ended
by the beginning of June.
This latest disaster more particular
~ illustrates the heavy task involved
in holding the railway. This body Of
some 800 British troops without guns,
which disappeared so completely with
in 80 miles of the great British army
had for its business to guard a section
Of nearly 90 miles Of railway between
Rloemfontein and Springfontein. If it
could thus be spirited away. how is
Lord Roberts to ensure his continually
extending communications?
other pertinent questions are being
asked as a result of the successive un-
fortunate occurrences" The foremost
is, why do not the British troops en-
trench? 1t is argued that if this had
been done even 500 men might have
held out until reinforcements had ar
rived. 1t cannot be concealed that the
utmost alarm is beginning to be felt.
1t is said that the Beers who cap
tured the British at Reddersburg be-
70 nd N
he has not retired north and hopes are
expressed that he may still be cut off.
1t is asserted that 1000 rebels surren-
dered during Gen. Clements march
northward. The Beers will do their
utmost to Hold Ladybrand and Thaba
N'Chu. both being rich grain producing
districts.
A correspondent of the Morning Post
at Springfontein, telegraphing Thurs
day. says he is glad to be able to re-
port that increased precautions are
being taken in patrolling the railway.
1t is stated that most of the prison
ers captured at Boshof are foreigners.
The report that Mr.. Steyn has been
appointed to the command of the Free
Staters and the further report that the
free s5ta1erS mas arranged loan from
the Transvaal for war purposes are
both confirmed.
Ten thousand remounts from South
America are due to arrive during the
coming week at ports of Natal and
Cape Colony.
Another Boer version of the fighting
with Col. Plumer's forces says that
four officers and so men We're taken
prisoners at Ramathlabama 1t ap-
pears that the names Cecil and Gran
vile, which was originally supposed to
indicate two of the officers captured
at that time. should have been read to-
gether as the name Of one officer
AS numerous prisoners are now held
on both sides and the numbers are
about equal, the question of exchange
was mooted in the House of Commons,
last evening. This elected a reply that
the government had no intention of
an exchange.

Death Of Ex-senator IngaIls.

Jonn j. Ingalls,, 81, formerly United
States senator from Kansas, died yester-
day in Las Vegas, New Mexico, from an
affection of the throat. Mr.. Ingall was
for years one of the most picturesque
figures in American public life. He was
a brilliant speaker, and his fiowery, gran
eloquent passages were widely quoted.
He was known as the "irridescent states
man." and will be remembered for years
as the man who declared that the decalogue
and the golden rule had no place in polit-
les. Mr.. ingalls, was born in Middletown,
Mass. His father was poor shoe dealer,
but he gave his son excellent advantages,
and he graduated from Williams college,
where Garfield was one of his companions.
After studying law in Haverhill, Mr..
ingalls, went to what was then the far
west, settling in Atkinson county, Kan
sas. His sympathies were actively enlist
ed in the cause of liberty in the feud be-
tween the Free Soil party and the pro-
slavary men. He quickly established a
reputation as a pungent and effective
speaker, and a brave man who could
neither be crowded by the invectives of OPP
posing orators, nor by the brandished re-
VolveIs in the hands of border ruffians.
He was active in state politics for years,
and during the civil war held commission
as lieutenant colonel in Kansae regi'
ment. He served in the United States
Senate from 1872 to 1891, and in 1881
succeeded John Sherman as president pre-
tempoTe of that body.
