SCHOOL STONE CHANGED

Beres Substituted For Bedford In John
VoIk's Contract.
Contractor John Volk has consented
to change the stone to be used in the
new Rock Island High school from
Bedford to Berea for an additional
consideration of $500.
President G. B Marshall, of the
board of education, states that the
Bedford stone specified in the contract
into which the board entered is
sawed at the quarry and requires very
little cutting. The Berea, on the other
hand. is sent out from the quarry in
large and irregular blocks and con-
siderable cutting is necessary to place
ii in condition TO use. The additional
sum to be paid Volk & Co., represents
the extra cost of cutting the Berea
stone.

PUTS THE "GINGER" IN.

The Kind OF Food Used by Athletes.
A former college athlete, one of the
long distance runners, began TO lose
his power of endurance. His expert
ence with change in food is inter-
esting.
while was in training on the
track athletic team my daily 'iogs'
became a task, until after 1 was put
on GraPe-Nuts food for two meals a
day. After using the food for two
weeks L felt like new man. My
digestion was perfect, nerves steady
and was full of energy.
II trained for the mile and the
half-mile runs Chose events which
require so much endurance) and then
the long daily 'jogs, which before
had been such task, were clipped off
with case. 1 won both events.
1.-The Grape Nuts food put me 10
perfect condition and gave me my
ginger Not only was my physical
condition made perfect and my
weight increased. but my mind was
made clear and vigorous so that l
could get out my studies in about
half the time formerly required. Now
most all of tia university men use
Grape-Nuts. for they have learned its
value, but think my testimony will
not be amiss and may perhaps help
someone to learn how the best results
can be obtained. Please do not pub
lish my name.
There is a reason for the effect of
Grape-Nuts food OF the human body
and brain. The certain elements in
wheat and barley are selected with
special reference to their power foI
rebuilding the brain and nerve cen
tiers. The product is then carefully
and scientifically prepared so as to
make it easy of digestion. The ply
steal and mental results are so appar-
ent after two or three weeks use as
to produce a profound impression.
The food can be secured at any first
class grocery store.

Rock Island could not hit the ball
yesterday. Bruce was in the box for
Decatur and Bruce has a way of de-
livering his packages that the locals
have yet to get next TO. They made
one lonely hit off of him. That's a
record that any twirler should feel
proud of, when it is considered that
Rock Island has been doing bad things
to several of the star pitchers of the
league.
But even il we did lose il was a
pretty game. 1t is doubtful if a
neater contest will be witnessed on
the home grounds this season. Char
ley Miller was in the box for Rock
Island and gave fairly good account
ing of himself. although he was q
trifie wild at intervals.
The feature of the game was Hoy's
brilliant work at third. II WAS Hoy
also who made the only hit that will
be found on Rock Islands side of the
table.

The attention Of our buain IS men is
called to the advertisement in this
paper requesting bids on various arti-
cles for the Indian school. Heretofore
1t has been tn practice to purchase all
articles of subsistence an6 utility Of
eastern contractors. The superintend-
ent of the Phoenix school has always
fought this arrangement, claiming that
as many articles as possible should Be
purchased Of home merchants. The
Office has conceded rhe justice Of this
claim, but has hitherto declared against
the practice nscaus, II said merchants
in small cities usually pooled to raise
the price. This year, however home
mer, hants have already been awarded
contracts for furnishing flour, beef
grain, salt, etc, which contracts aggre-
gate about $4,000. The Republican suG-
IS that there be no pooling in any Of
these bids, and that every article bid
on be FIRST class in every respect. No
fancy prices will be paid, ana mer-
chants should b, satisfied IL they get
the regular mark price. The purchas-
ing of these supplies here entails on The
