reports, as 1t was expected 1t would be.
Some districts suffered rather severely,
hut these are the exception. and the tone
as whole is hopeful that no serious
losses have been sustained.
It seems to be the Judgment of many
farmers that wheat will be reduced a
grade, while as to further and more SCI
rious damage a great deal depends on the
weather. Not few stations report 'tNo
damage to crops in this district
1t is encouraging to, find the reports
from the Prince Albert district optimistic,
as this Is a heavy wheat growing section
and Is the country about which much
concern is felt Among the districts
which show up unfavorahly are Greniell,

and where "the wheat will be reduced In

S65 per cent of thensoats were damaged;

Colorado Leoision Will Not Deter

Against Minneapolis Men.

ing, Washington.
Washington, Sept. 16.-secretary Hitch
cock has refused second offer to COM
promise the government suit against the
Commonwealth Lumber company Of Min
neapolis to recover about $50, 900 for green
timber alleged to have been cut on the
Leech Lake reservation under dead and
down contracts several years ago. IS
It will be recalled that when logs had
been cut under these contracts, a special
inspection was made by William ONeill,
who was recently appointed superinten-
dent of logging, under the Morris law,
and he found that the Commonwealth
company had cut many thousands of feet
of green timber. In accordance with his
recommendation, suits were brought to
recover the difference in the price of green
and dead timber. Before the suits were
brought Ray w. ions, president of the
company, came to Washington and offered
to settle for $4,000. The offer was turned
down by Commissioner Jones and Secre-
tary Hitchcock, and suit was entered.
Trial was fixed for the next month, but
several days ago another proposition to
settle for the same amount as before
came thru the department of justice
which now has charge Of the case. 1t was
rejected without ceremony and intimatior
was given that the case would be carried
thru all courts and the Indian office and
interior department were ready to stand
or fall by their claim.

ART OF REST.
May BE Acquired and Used with Great
Benefit.

Complete and restful poise of the body
and mind Is an art not easily gained.
Perhaps nothing brings one as much
content, comfort, happiness and pleasure
sourceful and we'll balanced mind and body,
that make of work a pleasure and the
daily life happy and peaceful.
The nervous housewife, busy with a
hundred duties and harassed by children;
the business man, worried with the press
of daily affairs, debts, ETC., cannot en-
joy the peace and restful repose and
healthfu nervous balance unless they
know how.
There Is way. First and foremost the
stomach must be consulted. That means
leaving off coffee absolutely, for the tenn
porary stimulant and the resulting de-
preston Is sure ruin to the nervous
system, and the whole condition of health
and happiness rests upon stomach, nerves
and mind.
Start with the stomach. that Is the key
stone to the whole arch. Stop using things
that break down it's power, upset it's nerv-
GUS energy and prevent the proper di-
manufacture of healthful blood and nerves,
brain and tissues. 8
When you quit coffee take on Postum
Food Coffee. That Is like stopping the
payment of interest and starting. on a
career where You are loaning money and
receiving interest. Ine good results are
double. You stop poisoning the system
with coffee and start building up the
broken-down nerve cells by powerful ele-
n1ents contained in Postum. These are
pure food elements ably selected by ex-
2xxts for the purpose Of supplying ,ast
IA Aaing required by Nature to perform
tnia rebuilding.
These are solid, substantial facts, and
can be proven clearly to the satisfaction
of any one by personal experience Try
the change yourself and note how the
old condition of shattered nerves and
worried mind changes to that feeling OF
restful poise of well-balanced nervous
system.
The managing physician of a hygienic
sanitarium In Indiana says that for five
years In his practice he has always in
sisted upon the patient leaving off coffee
and taking Postum Food Coffee with the
most positive, we'll defined results and
with satisfaction to the most confirmed
