MANK HOUSEEEPER.
Tried It Ninety Days.

There is one case on record where man had a good easy time of it while his wife was away and she tells the tale.
 "Circunstances made it necessary for me to leave husband for a month to pursue his bachelordom as best he could. He resolved to give Grape-Nuts a thorough trial as he had for years been subject to bilious attacks and in- digestion.
 During my absence he gained in weight and his health seemed perfect, therefore I give you for the benefit of suffering men in particular, and women in general, his menu for the 90 days: four teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts sprink- led with a little salt and covered with good cream, one slice of bread and but ter, one large cup of Postum Cereal Coffee (made according to directions) and all the fruit he wanted.
 He worked during the time nina hours a day and never realized he possessed a stomach. This diet my husband earn estly recommends to office men, students and to all people of sedentry habits especially, and let me tell it to all wives, this meal can be prepared by an mex perienced servant, a young son or daughter, thereby saving yourself hours of labor. Try it. It will make your work lighter, your purse heavier. your body healthier and all of you happier J Name given by the Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

M1NNEApoL1s's FORMER MAYOR

MINNEAPOLIS'S FORMER MAYOR.
 That it was quite independent of his
 party affiliations is shown by the fact that he f1opped over from the demo-
 cratic to the Republican side of politics, and as republican candidate for Mayor two years ago he won the elec-
 tion by larger majority than when he was Democratic candidate for that position. :.. -
 That a man without marked ability who has practically achieved nothing for the benefit or betterment of the city, and has no civic claims upon the support or gratitude of the community,
 should have and retain for many years so wide a popularity indicates at least that he must possess some very win ming personal qualities. And it is obvi-
 ous that there must be good deal, at least of certain kind of goodness in the man whose recent downfall calls forth such a tribute of admiring affec- ton and sympathy as the letter of Dr. Brewer Mattocks in another column. That letter reveals, no doubt, the secret of popularity of Dr. Ames. He has been a physician of many years stand ing at Minneapolis, with an extensive practice. He has shown himself a warm hearted, generous man in his treatment of the poor. He was always ready to help and to serve those in need. It was the bountiful kindness to the poor and to all persons in need of his assistance which gave him so strong a hold on the affection of multi tudes of people, and in spite of all his glaring faults has made him a political power at Minneapolis whom the poli- ticians were powerless to contend against. There is no better illustration of the Scriptural proverb that charity covers multitude of sins. That Ames's standard of public morality and of civic virtues were exceedingly
 low the evidence brought forth in the recent trials of his subordinates for bribery and corruption has abun- dantly demonstrated. That he was chiefly responsible for the moral
 rottenness of his administration there can be no doubt, and that he shared in the profits of the gang of thieves and gamblers who operated under the pro- lection of his administration there is every reason to believe. But, like Rob Roy or Jack Sheppard, this bad man and unworthy official had a good heart overhowing with the milk of human kindness for the poor-and there you have the secret of his popularity and of his political strength.

JULIA, A FELINE NURSE.
Also a Solitary Mourner at the Ora

Also a Solitary Mourner at the Grave
 of Her. Adopted Little One.
 Julia, the feline wonder of Hewftt's store on Chapel street, who for more than year has surprised the customers and others that have had the pleasure of observing her, by her intelligence has again distinguished herself and as usual in a very unusual way. It Is but about three months ago that Julia jumped from a third story window over Brooks Sy Co.'S, and landing on her feet rushed into the drug store none the worse for the extraordinary leap The incredu- lous could hardly swallow this story, byt Patrolman "Bart." Daley saw the performance with his own eyes, as did several others.
 Now for Julia's latest display of irl- telligence. A few days ago she brought a husky family nto the world. Satur- day an orphan kitten was found on the street by a customer. She was ena- ciated and could hardly stand the strain of her light weight on her legs. The customer knew of Julia's new family and suggested to one of MT. Hewitt,s clerks that the orphan kitten be given board with the said family. r The clerk brought the kitten into the store and tried to feed it, but it seemed too weak to eat For fear 1t might die he placed it outside, but Julia was watching and quickly picking 1t up took it and Ilaced it among her own little ones. This was surprise to everyone, but greater one was to come.
 A few hours later the clerk went to see how matters were getting along. He found Julia cleaning the kitten, which was laying on its side. He went up to it. It was dead. Julia was preparing it for burial. She had cleaned it from head to foot. The dead little thing was taken by the porter to the back yard and grave dug for it.. At the edge of the hole Julia sat as a solitary mourn CT. It was nearly an hour before she returned to her family.

BABY SHOW WEDNESDAY.
Biggest Week of the Season at Savin
 Rock

Biggest Week of the Season at Savin
 Rock.
 This is the week of the annual baby show at Savin Rock, and Wednesday will be a veritable fairyland for chill dren at the baseball grounds. The en- tries have been many, and they con- tinue to be received. The entry blanks may be had at the store of M. Mann & Bros., 7s6 Chapel street.
 At this store, too, is displayed the twenty prizes that are to be given the winners. The silver tea service for the handsomest baby is a marvel of the silversmith's handiwork and causes ex- clamations of surprise at its elabor- ateness. The silver ice pitcher for the handsomest decorated carriage is an- other beautiful present. Besides these every child entered in the show will re- ceive a silver cup, whether or not it wins prize. This is to be souvenir of the event.
 All comforts will be provided at a tent that will be erected as head quarters and a resting place. A trained nurse and a physician will be in at
  fort of mothers and children.
 This afternoon at o'clock and to- night at 7:30, there will be a concert in the park at Savin Rock. The feature of the concerts will be selections by the Mozart Comedy Four, that male quar- tette who for two weeks have charmed and amused the audiences at the Savin Rock theater.
 For all the success of the show at the Savin Rock theater last week, it would be difficult to surpass it. The show this week, however, is the equal of any heretofore presented. The feature of the bill is Mime. Mialtat, the superb dancer of almost international reputation who captivated London with her skill. Her coon dances, with new and original ef- fleets and Parisian poses plastique are some of her new specialties. The Epps are known as the black fashion plates. J. J. Rehan has a new and up-to-date monologue; Cross and Holden are a great comedy and sketch team; Fredo and Forrest, as the musical tramp and the elastic soubrette, introduce solos on various instruments, interspersed with comedy singing, dancing contortion, etc. Gertrude Morton is very charm ing and graceful comedienne. Per formances every afternoon and even- ing.
 Wednesday night at the Momauguin there will be another band concert. The park will be illuminated this time with Japanese lanterns, the fireworks will be designed to carry out the general Oriental scheme, and on the whole it will be veritable Japanese night.

achievement; it was by no means so huge an event or so important as the attack on San Juan hill which followed. But no such comparisons need be made, and are only cited here to keep the re- cord straight. There was glory enough, peril enough and bravery enough in both achievements without hopelessly befogging them in our minds, and by lmisplacing our credits and our laurels.
 And yet we suppose Roosevelt and the rough riders stornaing San Juan hill'' will continue in popular phrase the fable-for all our days. Why should we complain of the falsfty of our histories when so soon after this Span ish war we are in such hopeless con- fusion over its main facts?-Boston Transcript

fond of cats, and in some miraculous way avoided harming his guests.
 One day I noticed young rat, about the size of full grown mouse, running about the stall with the kittens. Sur prised that Tabby did not notice it. caught her and held her nose down to it. She licked its face and then walked away. One morning, perhaps a week later. I found Tabby and her family established on a flower bed near the kitchen door. I gathered the kittens into my apron and as I lifted the last one I uncovered the rat. It was talk ing it's breakfast just as naturally and contentedly as the kittens, but when Tabby got up the little thing scurried away into sweet peas.
 I carried the kittens to the granary and put them in a corner on a pile of empty sacks. When I turned round Tabby was just coming in the door with her baby in her mouth. She put it down in the corner with the kittens, but it immediately hid under the sacks. I placed a saucerful of milk on the floor and stood back out of sight to watch developments
 Tabby, after tapping it moment called her family. The kittens re- sponded slowly and then the tiny rat darted from it's hiding place under the sacks and scrambled over the edge of the saucer, head foremost into the milk. When it climbed out Tabby attended to it's toilet licking the milk all off. After she had finished the rat didn't look much larger than the first joint of mans thumb, but 1t sat up on its launches and washed it's face, head and ears in the most conical way.
 We were all interested in this most unnatural adoption, but one morning the queer foster nursling was missing and we never knew what became of it.-Edinburgh Scotsman.

DUSTY OLD MISSISSIPPI.

A Travellers Theory as to Con-
 comitant of Travel on the Father of
 Waters.
 ''The Mississippi River is the dustiest road In the whole country" said a man who travels on the river a great deal, and if you don't believe it put on a white shirt sometimes and make a cruise up the river a few hundred miles. Really, no thoughtful man would be stupid enough to question the state ment if he had ever had any experience on the river.
 T was reading an article some time ago about the dust of the sea, and from the description given of the fine, dewy sediment which falls from the damp mist of the sea- am inclined to think that the deposit is not in it with the dust of Mississippi The water of the river is charged with fine particles. The heavy particles in the water do not leave the surface except to sink at some point where an obstruction di- verts the current and causes a tempo rary poise. It is this condition which forms the immense bars, or sand banks, which we find along the river. These formations are due altogether to the resistance encountered by the current of the river Mind you, the heavier particles of the river figure in these formations. The lighter particles and the kind I have in mind at this time form a sort of river dust which is waited here and there by the winds which sweep the stream.
 q have heard a great many men ad- vance the idea that the dust was blown from the sand bars and banks of the river during the dry season. But there is nothing in this claim which will explain satisfactorily the constant settling of dust on the boats plying the Mississippi. It blows into the cabin; settles on the deck and other exposed portions of the boat, and is just like any other kind of dust which one may find in an ordinary road during a dry season. There is this difference, that it is possibly not so dry, and hence has a greater cohesive power. It sticks to. the thing it falls on. have been travelling on the river for quarter of century in the lower trade, and I have paid considerable ' and it is really a very interesting sub ject and one which should receive more attention. It may be pure or impure. In my judgment no kind of dust can be very pure. How this dust gets out of the river I cannot say. but since no scientist has explained the matter or set LID g. standard of Judgment in this respect. I have a right to my opinion on the subject.
 There are in my judgment, two ways of getting the fine particles out of the water, They may rise with the mist of the morning, and when the sun dries and dissipates the mist, these fine particles become the sport of the winds, and are bio WI '-'4' and thither. [ it may be that the influence of the sun on the surface of the water will suffi- ciently dry and bake these finer parti- cleS to make them an easy prey to the winds. The wind which constantly sweeps tEe surface of the river would brush them from the water and wait them with the direction of the wind do not pretend to say that this is exact ly what happens, but it seems to me to be reasonable explanation of the existence of the strange phenomenon we call river dust"
