ANY ONE CAN.
Prove the Value of Scientific Food

A good straightforward test of food is worth much to humanity. The following Is interesting:
 Mr. T. k. Durboraw of Greenfield, O., says: After 8 months sickness with little appetite and almost no digestion. I actually lived on this food, taking 1t three times day. and a cup of Postum Coffee at each meal for about four weeks.
 When I began I was so nervous and weak that my strength was exhausted even by dressing, and. of course. I was unable to do the work loaded upon my desk, but hammered away without any tonics or medicines. only my diet of Grape-Nuts and Postum three times a day. I found at the end of g days my nervousness gone, strength greatly in- creased and that had gained l6 pounds.
 Finally. after getting back to good health again l. of course took on differ ent kinds of food and as change, began using - for breakfast. After while some peculiar spells began to appear in the morning with deadly sickness and nervous lassitude. l took treatment for biliousness but that did not avail.
 About month ago l gave up the - for breakfast and took on Grape Nuts again These morning attacks lefe me entirely in a day or two and I feel that have had sufficient evidence of the scientific value of Grape Nuts as a vital izng. perfect food. that does not require the heavy work of the stomach occasion ed by the use of starchy foods we use so much nowadays"

them corralled near our lines. told my captain about the incident and requested a pass to the prisoners to see if l could find Sergeant Stevenson. He granted my request with promise to hurry back. I soon located the 4th Ohio Regiment and enquired for Company B. On approach ing their squad I asked for the sergeant, calling his game. He came forward to know what I wanted. I enquired if he knew John Burns. He said. Yes; have you all got him?" I replied. NO. he is in glory" I then told him of his death between sobs. as he was visibly affected and could not restrain myself. He said: Johnnie Burns was the best boy he ever saw, a pet with company B. He had boarded with his family in Cincinnati. O., and was his Sunday School teacher in the Baptist Church. Other comrades gath cred near and heard of his death. all be- ing very much affected and expressed their gratitude to me for what I had done. During my entire service of three years l frequently noticed the fondness which existed between Ohio and Ala bama soldiers.
 This narrative I have frequently told. and now, in my declining years I desir- ed it published. On the field of blood and carnage after the battle Is over there still exists that tender tie between man. kind and human sympathy which is won- drous kind. c. L. c.

 And why was it that these numbers turned up in sequence? We'll, it was quite simple when Madame showed us. The roulette wheel had become warped by the heat and was not quite round! Hence. ii turned from a certain point, 1t invariably stuck at certain other point, therefore the players never hesi- tated to risk maximum. That Is the only system which has ever been infal- Iible.' added the courtly official. as he for admission for three months, "and I ne d hardly tell you that since then we have been careful to test the wheels every day"
 Stakes Not 50 High.
 My companion admitted. as did other officials, his fear that the palmy days of the rooms are over. The high play that once took place at trente-et-quarante Is now thing of the past, and even the new Cercle Pive, with its rolling stair case, has failed to attract. As long as Monte Carlo lasts there will always, of course, be gamblers but they have de- generated both in social standing and in the amount carried in their purses. That is why the Casino Is struggling so desperately to; advertise itself this pres ent season. n

"REMINISCENCES OF SHILOH.
How an Alabama Soldier Witnessed
 Death of One from Ohio.

Mir, Joe T. Williams of Montgomery, was a member of Company D. Nst Ala bama Regiment and tells the following interesting story of events on Sunday evening Of the first days battle at Shi- loh:
 A comrade and I were searching the battlefield for some missing men or our company D, Fist Alabama Regiment. In passing through a swampy thicket near where the zlst Alabama charged the 4th Ohio Regiment early in the morning, we heard the voice of a wounded man cry ing, Boys! Boys!" Thinking it might possibly be one of our men we went to him. He first begged for a drink of wa ter. which I gave him out of my can teen, Knowing We were Confederates, and being conscious of the movements had rolled into the edge of this thicket in order to protect himself from being run over by the flying ambulances, ar- tillery and cavalry constantly passing near. His left knee cap was entirely shot of and he was extremely weak from loss of blood. His pitiful appeal to help him we could not and would not resist after talking to him. His name was John 4th Ohio Regiment. He begged to be carried to our field hospital where he might receive attention and If possible get word to his loving mother, being her hand with his thumb resting inside on the fourteenth chapter of St. John, His thumb being bloody 1t made a bloody spot on this chapter. He desired that this Bible should be sent to his mother, showing where he last read.
 Our field hospital being few hundred yards in the rear, we carried him there and requested our surgeon, Dr. Redwood of Mobile. to examine him. which he did in a few minutes, the hospital being crowded with patients. On examination the doctor found his wound to be fatal and his physical condition too weak for an operation. Being a Christian young tor told him there was no hope, he en quired if there were any Christians pres ent, We told him yes; we were Chris tians. In the meantime several of our comrades had gathered around him. He requested a prayer, to which one of us responded, all being deeply touched, then repeated a few lines of his mothers fa- vorite song:
 "There is a land of puro delight
 Where saints immortal refgn;
 which he requested us to sing with him. This song begun there was taken up among the Federal prisoners. All around then, bid him goodbye, l being among, the last he handed me his Bible and re- quested me to hand 1t to Sergeant Ste Venson of Company E, 4th Ohio Regt- ment This sergeant knew his family, and he wanted him to send it to his mother and tell her he died Christian hero. and found he had died during the night. As his body lay there I thought his face bore the most peaceful look 1 ever savA l learned this 4th Ohio Regiment was part of General Prentiss's Brigade which we had almost AntirAi~ cantured and had

 Friends of the Colonel say that while he preserves silence he is undoubtedly smarting under the long delay. He feels that he has done his duty. If he has not his intimates argue that charges should be preferred. They contend that he will not resign under any circumstances and that if Governor Jelks does not soon tske action the only course left for him will be to demand reinstatement or a trial.

 The New Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal for January contains the report of the Mosquito Commission: and this re- port includes an account of the most sim pie and approved method of prophylaxis of both yellow fever and malaria. which is. of course, identical in both diseases and primarily depends upon the destruc- the patient by proper screening from serving as focus of infection for these pests. If mosquitoes are protected from the disease germs by being shut out from patients they do no harm when they bite. But, for all this, the biting is not pleas ant, and upon the whole it is best to ex- terminate the biters. as far as possible. by means of petroleum.

COLONEL HIGDoN TALKS.

 Colonel E. L. Higdon wrote the Gov ernor several days ago. reviewing 4his military record as we'll as the recent diff faculties in the regiment, but making no demand of the Governor further than the inference that the only reward coming to an officer. was the approval of his superior provided his duty had been per- formed. says The Birmingham Age Herald.
 Colonel Higdon was asked yesterday afternoon about the report that had reached here from Montgomery, but de- clined to discuss it. When told what had
