CAMP AND FOOD. Getting Close to Nature.

It would hardly seem possible to some people that a man could, on food, cure himself of tuberculosis. "I was sent by my doctor to camp in the mountains and to live largely on Grape-Nuts food. My case was pronounced tuberculosis of the bladder by a famous New York specialist, the best au- thority of all American specialists in that line.
 T went into camp and used Grape Nuts as I would meat, bread or potatoes. I was careful not to overeat, but used the food three times a day, and at the end of 10 weeks, went for new examination, when not a trace of tuberculosis could be found My physician looked at me and said T don't believe there is such a marvellous case as this on record
 Both the doctor and myself give the credit to the Grape-Nuts food. To be sure, I took outdoor exercise and this no doubt helped me some, but with all the outdoor air and exercise in the world, I could not build up my blood to condi- tion where it would kill off the baoilli un- less I had good food of the character of Grape-Nuts to do it on. For family req sons, wish to avoid having my name ap- pear in public print" Postum Cereal Co., Ltd, Battle Creek Mich, will furnish this name upon application.

WILL DUPLICATE
 PRESENT PLANT Capacity of GrasseIIj Company
 to be Doubled PRODUCTS IN GREAT DEMAND Local Officials Refuse to Discuss the Rumored Manufacturers of Chemicals and By-Products
 at Grasselli.
PRODUCTS IN GREAT DEMAND

The Grasseli Chemical Company will duplicate it's plant at Grasselli, about six miles west of Birmingham, near the Pow derly electric line and the Alabama Great Southern Railroad track. A rumor to this effect has been in circulation for the past several days but when asked to confirm the report, officials of the company declined to make any statement, merely referring the reporter to Daniel Bailey, secretary of the company, whose office is in Cleveland, Ohio.
 The chemical works of the Grasselli Com pany were built at Grasseli last year and only went into operation late in the fall. From the first the company sold it's entire product and soon found it necessary to en- large the plant and thereby increase the capacity.
 The Grasseli Chemical Company's main office is in Cleveland, O., where it has large interests, but in December, 1899, the com pany sent representatives to Birmingham to investigate the conditions here with re- ference to the manufacture of chemicals. The result was that within a month the company decided to locate a plant about six miles from Birmingham and three or four weeks later actual work on the con struction of the plant began.

 The following resolution was then intro- duced and carried without a dissenting vote:
 Resolved, That in the event it is de- cided to incorporate a clause be inserted in the charter prohibiting the manufac- ture or sale of spirituous, vinous or malt liquors within the corporate limits of the town"
 The chair appointed Dan Jenkins, F. E. Blackburn and c. M. Bitz as a committee to prepare the plan of the election under the above resolution. The meeting then adjOurned

IMPORTANT RULING IN BANKRUPT CASE Question of Waiver and Exemp-
 ton Decided MADE BY REFEREE TRIMBLE Hold Under Decision of Circuit Court of Appeals That Waiver of Bank rupt Becomes Null Under Claim
 for Exemption.
MADE BY REFEREE TRIMBLE

The first ruling, under the decision of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, which was rendered few days ago, involv- ing the question of waiver and exemption in bankruptcy proceedings, was made yes- terday by Referee in Bankruptcy N w Trimble, in the case of J. A. Thomas of Blount County.
 Under the ruling it is held that a bank rupt, although he may have waived his right under the State law, is entitled to the full amount of exemption to which he is enti- Der of petitions in bankruptcy have been filed, is of vast importance.
 In the Thomas case, a creditor through his attorney John D. Strange, objected to the exemption on the ground that he held waive note signed by Thomas. The amount of the note was about $100, which he asked be allowed before the exemption
 Thomas was represented by Assistant United States District Attorney J. w. Dav- idson, who cited the decision of the Court or Appeals in thecase of Woodruff vs Cheeves and others which went up from the District Court of the South Georgia District, in which the judgment of the lower court was reversed and remanded. In this decision 1t was held that the District Court had erred in allowing a waiver claim as against the exemption. The point was sus- tained by Referee Trimble and a decision rendered accordingly.
 There were a number of cases involving the same point on the docket for hearing, and as several of the attorneys were pres ent the same ruling was made in several of them
