OATMEAL MUsH AND DIABETES.

DR.. Pavy, OF England has shown that
diabetes is due to an imperfect digestion
of starch and its absorption in the blood.
1T is impossible for the stomach to
digest cereal foods taken in the form
of mush, in which the starch is less
than half cooked. This is one of the
reasons why diabetes is becoming so
common in this country and British Is
lands French physicians long ago dis
covered that toasted bread or dextri-
nized starch is an excellent remedy in
diabetes The best dextrinized food
however, is known to be Toasted Wheat
Flakes, sweetened with Malt Honey
made by the Battle Creek Saaitarium
Food Co. These fakes are thin, thor
oughly cooked and Drowned They are
very appetizing. partly pre-digested and
quickly assimilable.

exnerirnentS to test the digestive power
of Stuart's tablets show that one grain
of the active principle contained in them
is sufficient to thoroughly digest 5000
grains of raw meat. eggs and other
wholesome food.
Stuart,s Tablets do not act uDon the

JOINT LINE THROUGH TEXAS.
Santa Fe and Rock Island Said to Be
in the Deal.

Galveston, Tex, Oct. From a re-
4iabfe-sourceai it is learned that the Rock
Island and the Santa Fe are contem-
plating the construction of a joint line
from some point in the Indian Territory
on the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf to
Galveston. The Rock Island and the
Santa Fe extend to Fort Worth and a
new line viii be built from that city to
Dallas, connecting with the main line
extension of the two roads from Dallas
to Galveston.
When the Rock Island first deter
mined to build from Fort Worth to deep
water at Galveston it was proposed to
use the Santa Fe's main line, the two
roads to use this jointly. 1t was decid-
ed later that the grade of the Santa Fe
could not be lowered to a degree to place
1t in the best condition for competition
with the Gould and Southern Pacific
lines, and it was then proposed that the
two systems combine in building a new
| lire through Texas, which would in
clude Dallas and Houston, the two
largest and most imporan commercial
ccnters in north and south Texas.
The Santa Fe will continue to use it's
main line for local freight and the San
ia F'e and the Rock Island will use the
new line jointly for through freight.

Santa Fe Adopts a New Train
Signalling Device.
Invented by Amos McKanna, an
Ex-Engineer.
GETS A GOOD PRICE.
Reward for Four Years of Work
and Study.
Train Orders Can Be Given to
Trains in Motion.
GETS A GOOD PRICE.

Amos McKanna, an old Santa F'e en-
gineer a Emporia, has been in topeka
this week closing up contract with the
santa Fe for the adoption by that road
of a device for giving train orders to
engineers on engines going at full speed.
This invention has just been patented
by Mi. McKanna, and Will be at once
put into use on all parts Of the Santa
Fe system. 1t will be manufactured at
the Santa Fe shops in this city.
M McKanna was injured four years
ago in Santa F'e wreck at Evans, near
Strong City, and since that time has
turned his attention to inventions. His
efforts are now rewarded, for he states
that under his contract with the Santa
Fe he gets a good price for his inven-
ton besides annual passes for himself
and his wife for life The contract
leaves Mr.. McKanna free to sell his de-
vice to other railroads, and indications
are that it viii prove itself of great
value and come into general use
throughout the country.
The invention consists of a large wire
loop fastened to the end of a stout stick
Attached to the look is metallic case
containing a written copy of the order
for the locomotive engineer or conduc
tor On the stick is a signal lamp and
a reflector, TO give notice to the engi-
neer Of the Oncoming train that orders
are awaiting him.
The station agent holds up the LOOP
within reach of the engineer. who
grasps it Is he flies past. The wire LOOP
with the orders attached automatically
detaches itself from the stick and the
signal lamp.
This invention will obviate the neees-
sity of stopping heavy trains at small
stations for orders. Instead, the orders
are telegraphed ahead of the train tc
the station agent, who Immediately ar
ranges his signalling device and awaits
the train. Without slackening speed the
engineer gets the orders.
1t is believed by Mr.. McKanna and the
Santa Fe officials that the invention viii
not only be q great saving of time. but
will also be productive of economy in
operating trains. 1t costs considerable
money to stop a fast train. and the less
stops this more saving there is in train
operation
Mr.. McKanna says that in his numer-
Gus tests of the invention it has never
failed to work satisfactorily. He has
repeatedly passed train orders to engl-
neers on Santa Fe trains running sc
miles an hour, and he believes that there
is no more trouble in giving orders tc
trains at such high rates of speed than
to slower trains.
