Swiss Salad Dressing,
SANDY WAS A WISE MAN.


Old Sandy c., who used to collect
the mining royalties for the Duke OF
Hamilton, was a bit of vag. one
day Sandy was late for his train for
Boness, and the only woy he could
catch his connection was by walking
across the line A certain gentleman
informed Sandy that It was useless for
him TO attempt TO cross by the railway,
as there was a Waterman stationed at
the camp bridge who would allow no
one to pass over Il.
"What sort o countryman ia he?" in
CURED Sandy,
IAN Irlshman,' was the immediate
rejolnder
well" responded Sandy ~ he is an
Irishman I'll get over and straight
away he went.
Coming up TO the bridge, Sandy espied
the Irishman coming out TO stop him,
but before Pat had got time to breathe,
Sandy gasped out, 81 beg your pardon,
sir, | see you're q man OF authority,
and / have Just 10 throw myself on
your tender mercesl"
'Jabers, 20 on" returned Pat, with
out moments hesitation.
Had the Waterman, Sandy used to
say been Scotchman. he would have
had 20 fight him, and had he been an
Englishman he would have had to de-
bate the question, --Tit-Bits.

PECULIAR MURDER CASE.
Mysterious Rawlins County Affair in
Supreme Court.

Briefs in the Dull murder case, which
has been appealed from the district
court of Rawlins county to the supreme
court, and which will soon come up
for argument have been sent to the
attorney generals department The
case is one of the most mysterious
events that ever happened in north
western Kansas
George W Dull and DR.. Rowland Of
Herndon, Rawlins county, were init
mate friends. One day Rowland stop
ped at Dulls store to see him and the
two stepped into a flour room of the
store and talked jovially in full view of
those who happened to be passing. A
moment or two later there were two
shots. A clerk rushed in and found DR..
Rowland lying on the floor wounded
and he died without saying anything
No weapon was IN sight. When he
went back Dull was working on his
books and did not get excited until told
that Rowland was shot. Dulls pistol
was hanging on the wall, but two
chambers were empty and the bullets
which were taken from Rowland s
body were found to correspond with
those used in the revolver Dull said he
had been shooting at some rats the
dav before There was great mystery
over the crime, as the two men had
been the best Of friends, but Dull was
finally charged with the murder, convict
ed and sentenced to twenty years in the
penitentiary. 1t is this case that mas

five couples went on the floor during the
evening, while a large crowd of Topeka

the smaller hall for the visitors. The
gathering was very successful in giving
an opportunity for the home lodge TO

SURPRISED HIM.
Doctors Test of Food.

A doctor in Kansas experimental
with his boy in test of food and gives
the particulars He says: 7 naturally
watch the effect of different foods on
patients
My own little son. lad of four, had
been i'll with lung fever and during his
convalescence did not seem to care for
any kind of food
knew something of Grape-Nuts and
its rather fascinating flavor and partic-
ularIy of its nourlshing and nerve
building powers. so I started the boy
on Grape Nuts and found from the first
dish that he liked it.
His mother gave it to him steadily
and he began to improve at once In
less than a month he had gained about
eight pounds and soon became SO well
and strong we had no further anxiety
about him.
AN old patient of mine. 70 years old,
came down with serious stomach trou-
bic and before I was called he got so
weak he could eat almost nothing, and
was in serious condition. He had.
himself. tried almost every kind Of food
for the sick without avail.
I Immediately put him on Grape
Nuts with good, rich milk and just a
little pinch of sugar. He exclaimed
when ] came next day Why doctor I
never ate anything so good or that
made me feel so much stronger. I am
pleased to say that Grape-Nuts cured
him, but he had to stick to it for two
or three weeks. then he began to branch
out a little with rice or an egg or two.
He got entirely well in spite of his q i
most hopeless condition. He gained p
pounds in two months which at his age
is remarka BILE
I could quote a list of cases where
Grape-Nuts has worked wonders. This

THEY WANT TT ALL.
Judges of Election Already Paid Big
Allowance Still Unsatisfied.

Allowance Still Unsatisfied.
About a dozen of the judges and
clerks in the recent election held a
meeting at the Democratic Flambeau
club, and decided TO circulate a sub
scription paper to pay the cost of a
lawsuit against the city. the object be-
ing to force the city to pay the judges
and clerks it, full general election rates
for the two bond elections
It is probable that sufficient number
of the clerks and judges win contribute
to this fund to make it worth the
while of some attorney to start the pro-
ceedings At the city hall this morn
ing, the opinion seemed to prevail that
a suit was almost certain.
George Overmyer, who has been act
ing as attorney for the judges and
clerks said this morning: I believe
that a suit viii be commenced. I think
that the judges and clerks have a good
chance to win. The movement is en-
tirely bipartisan"
The Republicans, on the other hand
do not think that the movement will
amount to much They say that while
the Republican judge and clerks would
like to have the extra pay, they do not
feel justified in risking their political
standing by assisting in a suit against
the Republican city administration.
The city has already allowed the
judges and clerks pay Tor the general
election, and one-half as much more
for the two bond elections. This makes
over SIS in some precincts for each OF
the FIVE judges and clerks, and the
chances are that few of them ever got
half that much for a days work before
in his life.
This last instaIlment of one-half. how
ever, has not yet been paid. It will come
in the appropriation ordinance for June
and there is a stipulation attached that
each judge and clerk who accepts the
money shall do so in full settlement
and thus debar himself from any right
to collect more from the city. even IL the
contemplated lawsuit should result ad-
versely to the city.
The city's contention is that there is
no law stating how much shall be paid
for counting the bond election ballots
and that under common law, the courts
would have to fix a reasona BILE com
pensation. The council thought that
one-half additional would be reasonable
aud allowed that amount.
