trast between the two. as they stood
facing each other across the office rail-
ing The superintendent was big and
quare-shouldered, born driver of
other men, with a bushy iron-gray
beard, and eyes that shot cold fire at
delinquent. Bronco Pete was gaunt
and thin and sallow, with a stoop in
his shoulders and shuttle in his walk,
and eyes that made you think of a
sledge-dog fioggeG to heel; or of the
Eskimo's desert cousin. the coyote
How about that Percheron of By
rams that you killed last week? The
one you reported as mule?" rasped
the master.
Pete looked up with a smile >that
would have softened any heart save
that of division superintendent
Now. who's been a-lyin' to you-all
about that ornery old mule. Cap'n
Savage? Er have they got out a new
breed o mules that they're callin"
Perch 'ons?'
The superintendent tried to with
stand the smile and the honeyed ap-
peal and put the offender in the smeat-
box.
1T won't do, Simmons" he said,
gruffiy. Il can't have you killing stock
every time you take a train over the
road. This time you've stuck the COM
pany for more money than you'll earn
In a year. That mule of yours was
an imported Norman stallion. Mr..
Graves here says you did what you
could to keep from hitting il after the
horses were on the track, and I'll take
his word for ii and let you off once
more. But If you don't quit killing
stock, you'll quit running an engine
on the c. and G. r.; that's all"
When Pete was gone L ventured to
put in a word for him.
I oil he
superintendent, you can't tell me any
thing about Pete. He is a good runner.
but he has two pretty bad failings, he
will kill stock, and ne will lie about IL
afterward. If he doesn't reform / shall
have to make an example of him"
What is his history, Mr.. Savage ?"
l asked, finding the time propitious for
the digging of a long neglected mine of
inquiry.
The superintendent laughed
You tell, IL you can. / inherited him
from the construction force. Benton,
the chief engineer. had him running a
steel train. The men says he is a Ten
nessee mOuntaineer-and further they
don't say; can't. / imagine. For all his
eafy-going ways he is as retcent about
himself as he is about the mules he

LIKE A PROVIDENCE.

A Floating Box Changed a Mans Life.
Things drift into our lives In a cur
ious way. A man was visiting the
seashore while an invalid and one day
a little empty Grape-Nuts box floated
to him. The food facts he learned,
changed his whole life-but let him tell
his story.
.rhe doctors said it was acute indi-
gestion or gastritis. There was really
nothing that could eat and enjoy, and
when one can not enjoy his meals, he
may as we'll be dead There was a
time when could eat and digest any.

last spring, was in a wretched state.
II tried everything heard of, took all
kinds of medicine, almost enough to
fioatfa ship, but with no lasting pur-s
pose.
Last spring. had to give up work
and went to Atlantic City. One day
while strolling along the beach, I no.
ticed box being tossed about on the
breakers and finally thrown up on the
sand. ! sat down on the sand and
looked at it idly at first. but after read
ing a few words on the box, got inter-
ested. 1t told how Grape-Nuts food
was prepared and all it's good qualities,
and made up my mind then and there
that would try it.
l have not taken a drop of imedtcine
from that day to this, but used about
a half package of Grape-Nuts each
day for two months. Then ] gradually
began eating meat and vegetables and
fruit, and now ] can eat anything
care to without it distressing me, but
1 still cling to Grape-Nuts food, as
I am fond Of 1T prepared in various
ways and never a day passes that i
don't have it in some FORM
After the first two months OF usinsl
Grape Nuts, l weighed myself every
Is days, and found gained from three
to five pounds each time. i have been
working every day since, and can say
1 never felt better. Thanks to Grape
Nuts now have an appetite like
billy goat and am no more troubled
with a bad stomach.
1 wish could talk with everyone
troubled as was. I know a good many
