i'm time for break fast and he doubt
less got it down there. In The
preachers account it is said that IL
dinner was also serv d after the GER
emony so that Clarence did not miss
either meal and all the members of
the Club know him well enough to
suppose that he took in both. 1t is
feared that all this in connection
with the excitement of the wedding

Clarence so that if any serious troub-
le is threatened Il committee will be
sent to their relief with supplies so
as to enable them to reach Eagles

Club take action looking to the care
Of Prof Sheets now staying at Ho-
tel Eagles Mere. The Professor

weight, and had imbibed so much of
the oxygen peculiar to the place that
it was feared that it had gone to his
head and produced peculiar ideas.
Some of the young fellows stated
that he is an enthusiastic sportsman.

to set decoy ducks on The Lake, with
the intention of attracting some of
the passing hocls of wild fowl, tn.
Professor becamG so interested that
in about fifteen minutes he went and
got his gun and commenced blazing
away at the decoys. 1t was only af-
FER considerable effort that he was
restrained. The decoys however
proved successful and the next day
the Professor bagged about a dozen
of the real thing. He persists that
the birds came and roasted on the
barrel of his gun and he executed
somersault and shot backwards and
got the whole lot.
Ii was decided 10 elect him a MEM

Among the candidates who are at
present soliciting the support of this
county, there is no more deserving
man than Ulysses Bird, candidate for
County Treasurer. We put forth
this declaration fullyTecognizing'the
actual value of several other candi-
dates at present before the people in
the county, and the assertion is made
without fear of contradiction. If
elected he will attend to the Office
himself and give his best attention
to the duties of the position, and the
best attention of an honest, consci-
entious man means something and
the actual value of this quality in an
official should not be overlooked by
the voters. ---.--

Minister wu as a Matchmaker.

New York Tribune.
 Many amusing stories have been told of the inquisitiveness of Wu Ting-fang, the Chinese Minister at Washington, His running fire of Interrogation. though at times exec edingly embarrassing, has been known to result happily for the victim as the following story indicates:
 MT. Wu was guest at a large gath ering, and in the course of the evening was introduced to one of the debutantes of the season, a modest and charming little maiden of 19 years. The diplomat tmmedia tely took an interest in her past present and future. and, after iinquiring as to her age. asked:
 And you're not yet married? Why aren't you? Wouldn't you like to be?
 The girl blushingly replied that she had no objection to welded life, but that no- body had yet offered himself as a life partner. She thought that satisfied Mir. Wu. who furied away. Rut not so. A little later the popular Minister reap peared, accompanied by a young naval officer lately out of the Academy whom he introduced something after this fashion:
 Miss Washington. let me present MT. he wants to be, for he has just told me so. You'd make fine young couple, just suited to each other. I hope you'll be happy" And with that the representa- tive of the Celestial Empire withdrew, leaving an embyro admiral and possibly a future society leader blushing crimson and speechless with embarrassment.
 The best part of the story is that within half, a year Wu's matchmaking bore fruit, and the young people were married.

A aOo!y CHANCE.
A Change ofLFood Works Wonders

Ihe Ing food and drink cause a lot Sad 4a sfUupe in this world. To change the .Sot ,fs the first duty of every person ss i'll, particularly from stomach ana inft ous troubles. As an illustration: A ,' .iy in Hickmon Mills. Mo. has. with her husband, been brought around to health again by leaving off coffee and some ar ticles of food that did not agree with them. They began using Postum Food Coffee and Grape-Nuts Breakfast Food.
 She says. For a number of years suffered with stomach and bowel trouble which kept getting worse until I was very i'll most of the time. About four years ago I left off coffee and began taking Postum. My stomach and bowels improved right along. but I was so re- duced in flesh and so nervous that the least thing would overcome me.
 Then l changed my food and began using Grape-Nut Breakfast Food in ad- dition to my Postum Coffee. I lived on the two principally for about four months. Day by day gained in flesh and strength until now the nervous trouble has entirely disappeared and feel that I owe my life and health to Postum and Grape-Nuts.
 Husband is 73 years old and he was troubled, for a time. with occasional cramps, and slept badly. Finally l pre- vailed upon him to leave off coffee and take Postum. He stood out for a long time, but after he tried Postum for few days he found that he could sleep and | that his cramps disappeared. He was satisfied and has never had coffee since. "I have brother in California who has
 heen using Postum for several years; his whole family use 1t also because they have had such good results from it"
