ON THE RANCH.
Western Air and Proper Food Give
Long Life.

The fine bracing air of the far West
is sometimes counteracted by bad food.
A combination of good food and air
however, is pretty hard to beat.
Out in Wood Lake. Neb. Mrs Paul
Kennicot lives on ranch: she has to
send in to Omaha for most of the me-
cessities Of life and got her first supply
of Postum in that way.
She writes that for nearly a year
she has used Postum Coffee exclusively
and many who stopped with her, as
they frequently do on the ranch. could
not tell it from the best brand of cof-
fee. We quote a portion of her letter
as her reason for using Postum ex-
clusively in the household.
She says, II know it has had a BEN
eficial effect on my family, hear very
little complaint of dull headache as /
myself, / was troubled with palpita-
ton and aching of my heart that 1 con-
suited a physician and was told that
/ had serious heart trouble which
would necessitate my giving up every
thing but the lightest homework. But
now after a busy summers work, do
ing the cooking for my family, which
with the hired help numbers s and 10
persons, can say that / have had no
trouble with my heart and my general
health Is excellent.
wish all coffee drinkers could re-
alize how they are undermining their
health by its use and would change
TO that best of all drinks. Postum Cof-
fee. wish to add that we use pack
age of Grape-Nuts a day which VIII
attest the favor in which the food as
well as the coffee is held by my fami-

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also "a Few Facts on the Same SUBJ
ject.

Jects
We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living, about
vegetarianism and many other fads
along the same line.
Restaurants may be found In the
large cities where no meats pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank is
in his glory, and arguments and theo-
ries galore advanced to prove that
meat was never intended for human
stomachs. and almost make us be-
lieve our sturdy ancestors who lived
four score years in robust health on
roast beef, pork and mutton must have
been grossly ignorant of the laws of
health.
Our forefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome was
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides to follow in mat
tiers Of diet, and a mixed diet of grains
fruits and meats Is undoubtedly the
best.
AS compared with grains and vege-
tables, meat furnishes the most nu-
triment in a highly concentrated form
and is digested and aSsimilated more
quickly than vegetables and grains.
DR.. Julius Remmson on this subject
says: Nervous persons, people run
down in health and of low vitality
should eat meat and plenty of IT, If the
digestion is too feeble at first 1t may
be easily corrected by the regular use
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal. Two Of these excellent tablets
taken after dinner will digest several
thousand grains of meat, eggs or other
animal food in three hours, and no
matter how weak the stomach may be
no trouble will be experienced IL a reg
ular practice is made of using Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets because they sup
ply the pepsin and diastase necessary
to perfect digestion, and every form
OF indigestion will be overcome by
their use.
That large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspeptics
should eat plenty of meat and insure
It's proper digestion, by the daily use
Of a safe. harmless digestive medi-
cine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
composed OF the natural digestive prin-
ciples, pepsin. diastase. fruit acids, and
salts, which actually perform the work
of digestion. Cheap cathartic medi-
cines. masquerading under the name
of dyspepsia cures are useless for in
digestion az they have absolutely no
effect upon the actual digestion food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is
simply a failure of the stomach to d.
gest food and the sensible way to solve
the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is
to make daily use at meal time of a
preparation like stuarf's Dyspepsia
Tablets. which Is endorsed by the med
ical profession and known to contain
active digestive principles.
All druggists sell Stuaft's Dyspepsia
Tablets at Goc. for full treatment.

NORTHERN SECURITIES SUIT.

,,,onrnmcnt Taken to New York
nov. 10, when Hearing VIII Re-
sumo.
ct Paul, Oct. 23.-The hearing in
This city by Special Examiner F. G..
1nqersoll. appointed to take testimony
n the suit of the United States against
the Northern Securities Company. the
Great Northern Railway Company and
the Northern Pacific Railway Company,
nd others, under the Sherman anti
tr,,st law, was concluded late this
sfternoon and an adjournment taken
- New York, Nov. 10. when the ex-
en1ination of several witnesses residing
~ or about the city will be taken. The
hearing in this city lasted four days,
presidents Hill of the Great Northern,
Harris of the Burlington, and Mellen
Of the Northern Pacific being the prin-
cipal witnesses. The other witnesses
we're Col. w. P. Clough, vice president
and counsel of the Northern Securities
company, and Frederick Wyerhauser,
o mig mmberman. To-day's witnesses
we're Col. Clough and President Mellen
but nearly the entire day was
devoted to the former, the government
attorneys paying particular attention
IN the matter of rates and joint rates,
various schedules of tariffs having
been introduced into the record. Speak
irg of the Northern Securities Com
many. Col Clough said it's organizers
did not adopt the idea of a trustee for
their stock as they did not desire to
tie up their stock that tight, as the
stock should be in such shape that 1t
could be dealt with. The effect of pos
sibe adverse legislative action had
been one influence in the organiza ton
of the Northern Securities Company, as
some Supreme Court decisions had
made a little uncertain the vested
rights, and they feared that their char
tiers might be taken away.
Assistant Attorney General Beck
asked the reason why the Northern
Securities Company had been incor-
porated in New Jersey. Col. Clough
explained that it was because the cor
pora ton laws Of that state had been
judicially passed on. while the laws of
New York were new laws and had not
yet been sustained by the courts. Much
time was given to questions about in
creases in capital stock of the Great
Northern, all of which Col. Clough
said have been sold at par to stock
holders for cash or it's equivalent, and
he insisted that 1872, 900, 900 par value of
Great Northern stock bought by the
Securities Company represented a gen.
uine valuation and not any inflated
valuation.

TO EvAcUATE SHANGHAI.
France, Great Britain and Germany
Have Made Agreement.

Paris, Oct. z3.-From an authorita-
tive source the correspondent OF the
Associated Press has learned that
France, Great Britain and Germany
have concluded an agreement provid-
ing for the military evacuation of
Shanghai by their forces. The nego-
uations have also brought about an
important extension of the open door
policy, as urged by Secretary Hay. The
agreement affects not only Shanghai,
but the entire Yang-tse-Kiang valley,
which the Powers are seeking to de-
velop for commercial purposes. The
date of the evacuation is still open.
but leading official of the foreign Of
fee expressed the belief that it will
undoubtedly be accomplished by Jan.
l. About 1,200 troops will participate
in the evacuation, each Power hav-
ing furnished about an equal number
OF troops since the Chinese crisis be-
came acute.
During the negotiations Germany
proposed that China be asked for as
surances of equality OF treatment of
the Powers. China gave these assur-
ances and the officials here say this
branch of the agreement amounts to
an extension of the OPEN
door policy in the Yang-tse-
Kiang region. Although the nature
or the commercial equality is not spe-
CITED, the agreement is that the mill
taFy and other rights of the Powers
snail be on an equal footing. The
United States is not a direct party to
the negotia tons, but has been fully ad-
vised of the intentions of the three
Powers. The officials here say the
United States shares in the benefits of
the agreement as to equality of treat
ment. The date of the evacuation of
Shanghai is expected to be settled in
a few days.

KNOCKERS"

The Williams News is kicking about knockers. We had an idea that Tucson furnished the only knockers ill Arizona. Here they not only knock mining and real estate sales, but if a man don't watch closely his reputation will be knocked out from beneath him. Tucson Post.
 No place in Arizona is free from the festive "knocker." They are of various classes and various kinds, and actuated by all sorts of mo tives. And in different parts of the Territory they direct their energies in different directions. In the agri- cultural counties their cry is the lack of water for irrigation, In the mining districts the croakers affirm that mines don't go down. In the stock raising regions there are num- erous and peculiar troubles which the pessimists ventilate. In the towns the wiseacres solemnly shake their heads and assure all listeners that "the town is going to the dogs" as fast as it can, or words to that effect.
 But withal those who have faith in the future and welfare of Arizona keep up the good work of develop ment of the great natural resources, and the Territory is forging stead fly ahead. And the knockers and croakers are all dying off. Within a few years there will be none left.

AQuIET ELECTION.


 As intimated in these columns last week, there is no need for inlec- tion into the present municipal canvass in Nogales the bitterness and animosity which has character ized such elections in the past. Two very good tickets are in the field. and to 8 great extent the selec- tion of the town government for the next two years will be matter Of individual choice It is better for all interests that choice should be given the electors, and for that req son there should be no personal hostility or bitterness carried into the canvass.
 Matters in Nogales are now en- tirely different from what they were in the municipal election of 1896 and the two following, of 1898 and 1900. In the first the town had come through fierce legal battle testing the validity of the ordin- ances framed to provides a municipal revenue; and there entered into the election contest much of the bitterness which had characterized the legal struggle; while many of those advocating the election of one of the tickets, openly declared its success meant disincorporation. All can now see what was contend ed by the other party: that such a measure would have been a step backward from which the town would bave been very slow in re- covering and it would have defeated county division. Having arrived at that understanding, many who were then arrayed in hostility are now lined up together.
 Four years ago some of the anim- osities engendered by the issues of 1896 were still active, and to those were added the feeling which was stirred in the custom house trou- bles. Two years ago the hostilities arising from the latter difficulty still prevailed; but now they are most happily removed; and men who have never been together upon any public issue in Nogales are now pulling together for success of the Citizens ticket.
 The situation being as thus out lined, without any openly avowed issues that can arouse anlmosity the election promises to be quiet, and will leave no rancor after it is all over. All of which is cause for hearty congratulation.
