SQUARE IAN OS
WANT Ed.
Complete Destruction of Our Factory at
Brooklyn-25O Square Pianos
Burned.
50 Square Pianos Needed ct Once to
Supply the Demand From the
Smaller Towns.

As previously stated in the news
papers, one Of the largest factories OF
the Bradbury Piano Co., located at
Brooklyn. was completely destroyed by
fire on May 30. This factory contained
over go square pianos which Were un-
dergoing repairs. and not one of these
pianos was saved from the fire. which
practically destroyed everything eX-
cept the foundations of the building.
The loss OF these pianos. particularly
at this season. when there is such de-
mand for square pianos from the smaller
towns, renders it impossible for the
company to fill its orders. To meet
this emergency the Bradbury Factory
must have fifty square pianos at once
and are willing to make an unusually
liberal allowance for any square piano
sent In to them during the next few
days.
Full value will be given for your
square piano in exchange for new up
right-or a due bill-equvalent to cash
will be given, which may be used at
any time-and which may be transferred
or sold to some friend who wishes 70
secure a new upright piano. II you are
paying storage on your square piano
it would be n wise plan to have the
Bradbury Piano Co. send for il and
save you the storage-giving you due
bill ir exchange. as stated above. Their
Gray will move it without cost to you
All owners of square pianos should
either call or write TO the local ware
rooms at 1925 Pa. ave, or phone 7i1
main-as this misfortune of the Brad
bury Co. offers rare opportunity to
dispose of your square piano to good
advantage.

BODY HEAT
Reduced 20 Degrees in Summer.

Never eat heavy carbonaceous foods
for the morning meal. for these foods
should follow and not precede hard
work.
The best morning foundation is
Grape Nuts and cream. a little fruit. a
cup of Postum Food Coffee and pos
sibly a couple of eggs prepared TO suit
the taste-this breakfast is sufficient to
satisfy the hardest worker, either of
brain or muscle. until the MONDAY
meal.
Particularly Is this true at the pres
ent season OF the year. when meat and
other fatty foods increase the internal
heat of the body and make the summer
DAY still more disagreeable.
Grape-N Nuts come to you from the
grocer ready to serve, having been fully
cooked at the factory by food experts
and this saving in time and eXertion Is
appreciated by the housewife as well as
the economy. fer being a concentrated
food. four teaspoonfuls is sufficient for
tie cereal part of a meal for one per-
son and costs only one cent.
A booklet of excellent recipes is
foun., In each package of Grake- Nuts
from which many easy and delicious
warm weather dishes can be made for
luncheon and supper that are not only
nutritious but pleasing to the palate.
A trial of the above selection of food
for ten days will prove to anyone that
health and yigor, an active mind and a
keen enjoyment of the pleasures of sum
mer will take the place of poor diges-
tion. a duh brain end that heavy draggy
feeling caused by improper food during
the hot weather.

despite the fact that Mr.. Hanna had OBJ
jectcd to this as unfair in his speech.
by referring to the commission as
the Hanna Commission he said 81

he relies. as to its supplemental report,
for all of his arguments.
The Bahia Dam.
Mr. Mitchell again took up the sub
iect of the Bahia dam on the Panama
route. asserting that it is very un-
certain that it could be made TO stand.
"If the site selected for the dam on
the Nicaraguan route should unfortu-
nately not prove satisfactory he said.
there are many other sites which could
be chosen. Eu such condition exists
on the Panama route. There the en-
tire plan depends on this ore site be-
ing feasible: otherwise the whole scheme

Mr. Mitchell charged Mr.. Hanna with
insincority in referring totkhe slight
difference in distance between New
York and San Francisco by the two
routes. He said that the difference in
distance between New Orleans and San
Francisco and between Liverpool and
the Western coast is much greater.
and that ii is always in favor OF the
Nicara guam route.

A Shocking History.

Mr.. Mitchell denounced the idea of
the United states being linked with the
Panama enterprise, whose history had.

shocked the sensibilities of mankind.

and social and political exposure ever
uncovered in any age or country"
The canal discussion viii occupy the
entire time OF the Senate this week. but
it is probable that fnal vote may be
reached by the 18th instant.
Senator Harris will occupy the whole OF
tomorrow afternoon. He is a member of
the Interoceanic Canal Committee and
is railroad engineer Of recognized
ability. Many OF the technical questions
involved in the building of the canal he
will, therefore. be able to explain from
personal knowledge.

COUSINS IMPRESSED HIM.

Mr.. Dipwiddie, cashier of the Cedar
Rapids Savings bank, visited New York
TO attend a convention of bankers and
on his way home called on Congress
man Cousins at Washington. OF the
Fifth district representative he says in
an interview:
'Mr. Cousins went out of his way, to
make sure that I saw those whom
desired to see," said Mr.. Dinwiddie. Il
was Impressed with Mr.. Cousins high
standing among his colleagues and
WIS there long enough to learn the rea-
son of it, / think. Among others we
called upon Senator Allison, VINO
happened to be on a committee en-
trusted with a certain matter under
discussion. Mr.. Cousins was on SINH
lar committee from the house entrusted
with the same matter Senator Allison
said that he had not found time TO IN
yestigate the subject and he asked MT
Cousins to state it for him. Mr.. Cous-
ms did SO, and he did it so easily and
so completely that I was impressed by
the thorough grasp which he had OF
the subject and the ease with which
he stated it. Some people may have
thought that Mr.. Cousins speeches are
studied efforts. That may be partly
true, yet the language he used in eluci-
dating this matter TO Senator Allison
was as well chosen els II 1t were. par'
OF one of his speeches and he spoke
with an ease and aMency that showed
how. complete was his knowledge OF the
subject. This was only one instance
on several different legislative matters
which were brought up during my brief
visit with him. he showed the same
thorough and ready knowledge OF the
subject and this is doubtless one OF the
reasons why he is held in such esteem
in Washington.

say 125 school children. OF educational
and financial results in favor of tho

matter has been fully discussed in

are many parents and Taxpayers who
can add still more favorable reports

And notice how modern plans and
systems, pro bono publico. influence
one another There is good authority
for saying, but for this central school
system, Buffalo Center would long
ago have had rural delivery sys-
tenn. Here's the idea. For 5 days in
the week, these children for miles
around town, are brought to town in
these hired conveyances. After school
is out they go in troops to the post
office, get the daily mail including
newspapers, and thus these farmers
have children and mail promptly de-
livered each afternoon before o'clock.
This excepting Saturdays when the
farmer and his wife go to town, pre-
sumably leaving the children at home
to attend to things.
