SUMNER COMFORT.
Get Ready For Warm Weather.

BY a complete change in breakfast,
at this time f the year, one a put
the body right to go through the sum-
mer comfortably.
Leave off meat, potatoes and heavy
body heating foods, and use the food
that nourish the body and give reserve
force to the brain and system.
A most appetizing and healthful
breakfast al be made on Grape-Nuts
and cream. some fruit and perhaps two
soft boiled eggs-thfs meal will furnish
full strength and nourishment up to
the next and mas a remarkable effect
on the body during hot weather. Re-
member h cells of the body you are
now building will last you into sum
mer, SO be sure and build the kind
that ten to keep a o o body n level
head.
One pound OF Grape-Nuts has more
nourishment-that the system will abb
sorb-than ten pounds Of meat, with
out any of the internal heat of meat
that a person wishes to avoid during
the warm season: Its rich. nutty flavor
added to the delicate sweet Of the grape
sugar makes a dish pleasing to the
most critical taste
You receive Grape-Nuts from the
grocer ready to serve. as il has been
thoroughly cooked at the factory by
food experts. and this saves heat from
cooking and time and exertion eces
sary in preparing ordinary food.
A change from the old breakfast to
one like this VIII refresh and invigor-
ate the system in a surprising manner
and permit you to enjoy the pleasures
of summer in q cool. comfortable fash
ion when your neighbors. differently
fed. will be hot"

CHARGE AND PROMPT DENIAL.
Not Immigrants. hut Those Who
would Victimize Them Driven
from the Battery.

New York, April 21.-Commissioner
of immigration Fitchie received or
ders from Washington, yesterday, to
investigate published stories that i'm
migrants who land in this city at the
Battery are brutally treated by the
special police on duty there.
A Brooklyn" resident sent Il batch of
the stories to President Roosevelt and
accompanied it with a statement that
one of the instances he knew, from
personal observation, to be true.
The president, after looking over
the papers, sent them to Secretary
Shaw, who. in turn forwarded them
to Mr.. Fitchie with orders to apply
the probe.
The instance mentioned was that
the special police carried raw hide
whips with which they beat the i'm
migrants, driving the foreigners be-
fore them like so many cattle.
Commissioner Fitchie is already out
in a denial of the charges. He and
his police declare that it is not the
immigrants who are dashed with
whips. 1t is, they say, the horde of
hotel runners. oilers, sharks" and
other men who have no legitimate
business at the Battery, and who
menac the immigrants as they land.
The officers declare that the only way
to get rid of these pests, as they
term them, is to use violence.

POPULAR SCIENCE.

The great armadillo has 90 teeth
more than any other animal possesses.
The eel has two separate hearts.
One beats 60, the other 100, times a
minute.
One hundred and seventy-two spe-
cies of blind creatures are known to
science and many more are constantly
being discovered in great caves.
In Siberia a winter rainbow some
times lasts almost all day. 1t is caused
by fine particles of snow suspended in
the air.
French scientific journals report that
a small room renews its air through
the walls in an hour, with 25 degrees
difference between the outdoor and
inner temperature.
1t is only of late years that geolo.
gists have. discovered that fine vol
canic dust is carried over the whole
Of the earth's surface and plays a very
important part in the deep sea depos-
its. On deserts and nearly rainless re-
gions blown sand will wear away the
hardest rocks by beating against them.
