Hermann the Great" had some fun in
a crowded restaurant in Paris. France,
the past summer. Mr.. Herman. after
partaking of light luncheon that he had.
as he supposed. no money in his pocket
with which to pay mis- bill. An ordinary
mortal would have felt embarrassed un-
der the circumstances. but Hermann is
not the man to be diseomposed by trif,es.
Walking up TO the cashiers desk, where
sat young and rather good looking young
lady. he called for clean and perfectly
white piece of paper. which he politely
handed to her, requesting her at the same
time to orumple it slightly with her dainty
fingers, from which sparkled number of
gems. This having been done, Now,
Madame. please give me the change.
said Hermann to the young lady, who
then discovered to her great surprise that
the piece Of white paper had become
bank note. ALLOW me-" he continued, as
she placed the change in her hand and he
took it from her. Where are your ringsq"
was the next question and the young lady
almost collapsed as she found the gems
were missing. Here they are, said the
man Of mystery, as he srniingly laid them
on her desk. Nice weather we are hav-
ing" continued the professor, who was
enjoyng,simself to the utmost, but the
Young lady would have no more of him.
for with quick cry of alarm she grasped
her jewels and made an exit for the rear
Of the room.
Hermann will be the attraction at the

They Helped the Sufferers.

The recent terrible calamity in our
city has not been without its lesson.
Perhaps the greatest and most lasting
one is that of the JOY OF giving. The
purpose of Friday nights entertainment
at the First Methodist church was to
raise funds for the food sufferers, and
the success of the evening was made
possible by the generous kindness of the
public. Especially do 1 wish to thank
the Adams Brothers for donating the
programmes and tickets Mr.. Roehr for
the piano, the newspapers of the city
for free advertising, the members of the
programme for giving their talent. and
lastly, you who came to hear them. To
one and all my sincere thanks are Civ
en-, knowing that in trying to help the
needy in their hour of trial we are but
fulfilling the Christian duty we all owe,
and are ourselves gaining more than we

NOBODY CARES.
Powers Will Let Servia Arrange
Affairs to Suit Herself.

St Petersburg, June 13.-In official
circles here it is stated that none of the
powers are inclined to raise difficulties
in recognizing the sovereign the Servian
parliament elects, whose accession IS
calculated to end a dangerous condition
which might lead to anarchy. An off,
cial note giving the views of the gov
eminent follows.
..The tragic events at Belgrade have
occasioned profound emotion in Russia
where there is the keenest interest in
everything affecting the destinies of the
Servian people. All the blood that has
been shed can only awaken in Russia q
feeling of compassion which in the pres
ent instance is increased by the fact
that the king and queen of a friendly
state have fallen victims of a violent
death and the Obnervitch dynasty 50
closely bound up in the history of Ser
via is now extinct The most fervenu
desire prevails in Russia that Servia.
after this fearful crisis. may be able %
pursue peacefully the course of her
national life in the direction which the
patriotism of the people and a proper
conception of their supreme interests
will indicate

BACKWARD BABIES.
Their Food Usually Fault.

When the baby is peevish and back

our girl was a tiny baby she had indi

nothing seemed to help her. She was
peevish and would not even try to
walk and many times would cry aloud
and seemed to be in much pain
AS we buried three children before
you can imagine how we felt to see this
little girl wasting away When she was
two years old she had a terrible sick
spell and we were very much alarmed
The doctor said she had summer COM
plant and indigestion and told US to use
Grape Nuts After we had given her
two meals of this food her bowels We're
checked and in a short time she was
completely well and strong again.
Then we noticed how her mind too
began to improve. She had never talked
before but now she frightened up and
understood things that were said 20
her She laughs all the time instead of
crying and now after two years living
on Grape-Nuts she talks we'll. has

An excellent way to prepare for very
young babies is to take one and one

aside When ready to use take y tea
