FIXED THE FAMILY. A Grape-Nuts Set Them Right.

It is better to have food epidemic in a family than epidemic of sickness. young lady out at Hibbing. Minn., tells about the way Grape-Nuts won her fam fly. She says: When recovering from typhoid fever my doctor ordered Grape Nuts Breakfast Food. I gained four pounds the first week. and as the pack age was kept on the table for me. the whole family started to eat the new food.
 We soon noticed a difference in my younger brothers face. which had been pale and bloodless and who had been suf . fering from chronic inflammation of the stomach. In a short time he began to eat so heartily that we all remarked about 1t, and before long he got so he could eat anything without the least bad effect.
 I've often eat Grape-Nuts dry as we would candy or nuts. and it has a richer taste than when soaked in water. The best way is to put on some good. rich cream.
 My sister found that after we began eating GIape-Nuts she had much great CT supply of milk for her babe. We have quit eating hot bread and milk for the evening meal, and take in place some nice Grape-Nuts, with cream, and a little fruit. and have all improved greatly in health.

Butte Mont, January 1z-According to reports received from the Yellowstone National Park, the buffalo held within its confines are rapidly disappearing and unless Congress makes further provisions threatens to become extinct. Last win ter but eighteen buffaloes remained in the Haydon valley of the former herd of thirty. The specimens that now exist lack the strength of their former hardy predecessors and are barely able to with stand the rigors of the winter.
 Elk are reported more numerous than any other animal in the park. There are at least 50.000 of them within the park lim- its. Antelope, too. are numerous. espe- cially in the valley of the Gardiner river, where band of one thousand is some times seen.

 justine Freight Rates.

New York, January 17.-Referring to the fact that number of leading shipping men were en route from London to this city in accordance with proposed com munication. John Lee. agent of the White Star Line in this city, said:
 Tt locks as if there was something on. What 1t Is I cannot guess All these own CTS coming over on the same ship looks as though some thing was up. It may be that an effort is to be made to arrange an agreement on freight rates, but I can't tell. of course
 Personally, l don't believe that the White Star line will ever be sold. don't think any agreement ion rates will remedy the situation. The trouble is there are too many ships. I am not enough of shipping man to know whether the depreciation in value in ships is greater than the loss In operating them at low freight rate. and I do not see how you can arrange a settled rate, as railroads rates from the west-Chicago. for in stance-to different sea ports, differ so materially.
 ''I am led to think there is nothing in the story of sir White Star steamers be- cause such ships as the Celtic, which is q commission and passenger boat. car rying more freight than a cargo boat are left out. The big carriers are the true cause of the freight rate dissatisfaction. and I cannot understand anyone wanting to buy the smaller beats to set up a riv- airy with the big ones'
