Empire state Express in Football.

The New York Centrals Empire
State express is recoenlzed as the
swiftest and surest train operated by
Americas greatest railroad. and con-
sidered the very best means TO cover
the ground in the time required. 1t is
for this reason that the Harvard Uni
versity football team named their best
and surest play of the season of 1902
the Empire State Express" for they
believed it to be the most reliable play
In their program. 1t was successful
thruout the season until it met Yale's
"Twentieth Century Limited" play,
which was just as swift. safe and sure,
but had longer endurance and was
limited" only by the size of the field.
The names of the rival teams very cor
rectly describe the difference in the fa-
nous trains, the Empire State run
ming only from New York to Buffalo,
while the Twentieth Century Limited"
makes the $50 miles between New York
and Chicago in twenty hours every day
of the year. Great is the New York
Central and great are the trains it OPP
erates-swift, safe and reliable.-From
the Brooklyn Standard Union.

Corn Fields In Northern Part
the County Badly Stripped
Friday Afternoon
ESTIMATE LOSS AT 25 PER CENT
Corn in the Milk Is Badly damaged,
But That Which Is Further Advanced
Is Mot Affected So Mucl,-storm
Passes Thru Liscomh, Iowa, Taylor
and Vienna Townahipa.

While the storm In Marahailtowr
Friday afternoon dii no damage, hail
combined with the heavy rain, succeed
in playing havoc with the corn fields
in the northern part of the county. The
path of the storm was not wide, ana
is not thought to have extended over
from the north. and passed in a south
easterly direction fer a short distance
then seemed to swerve a little further
to the north again. The damage was
confined largely to Iowa, Liscomb, Tay-
lor and Vienna townships.
Farmers estimate that between AL
hion and Liscomb, where the storm pas
sed, the damage to corn will be at least
% per cent. The corn that is still in
the milk will be considerably ruined.
but that which is further advanced to-
ward maturity will not be damaged to
so great an extent Some ears Were
knocked from the stalks, and the leaves
were badly shredded.
From different sections In the north
ern part of the county reports of dam
age by hail. which accompanied the
storm of Friday afternoon. have bean
received. From what can bt. learned
the loss seems to have been the great
est in the southeastern portion u
Vienna township. The hail, as large as
nuts, fell for fifteen minutes
in places. stripping the corn of leaves
and badly cutting the stalks. In places
the damage will be considerable. The
farm of II. c. Hubbard, eight miles
northeast was in the direct line of the
storm, and the hail at that point was
very heavy.
Damage is also reported from the
vicinity of Albion, where hail stones
fell in large quantities. The corn OF NJ.
A. Houser, near the new Bethel church
was considerably cut up. as was Also
that OF II. j. Reidel, living TWO miles
northeast of Albion.
Considerable dan age is also reported
from The Classen ntighborhood in Wen
ma township.

NEW WAY TO TREAT HAY FEVER

nn,ei-Stnns Snenzinu and SnartinQ.

omei-Stops Sneezinq and Smsrting
Mcbride e Win are recommending 10
their customers, as a cure for hay fever,
Ayomei.
It is claimed for this remedy that 1t
stops the spasmodic raroXysms OF
sneezing, the smarting and running OF
the eyes and nose, and other acute
symptoms of this disease
Many persons have been cured of hay
fever by Hyomei and its inventors pro-
TESS to be able to prevent both the oc-
currence of the annual attacks and to
arrest the progress of the disease When
in the most chronic form.
Among those who have been cured by
Hyomel are j. F. Forbes, chief dis
patcher of the b. & NJ. railroad, Nc
Cook, Neb.. who writes: Il have never
had relief from any remedy for hay fe-
yer even temporarily, urdl used Hyo-
mel. will always recommend 1t when
ever occasion offers.
A Hamlin. Westford. Mass, writes:
sHyomei cured me of hay fever in one
weeks time. I consider it a duty to tell
pthers who suffer from this disease
These endorsements are samples OF
hundreds that have been received by
the manufacturers Of HNomei but Nc
Bride &Will's offer to refund the money
II Hyonei does not do all that is
claimed for it is the strongest proof
that can be offered as to the reliance
they place upon Hyomci TO cure hay

COULD COOK,
But Couldn't Feat

l
| A man who has seen many years
sailing as cook on the Inland Seas" as
the great lakes are called, has learned
thing or two about food as the fol-
lowing story shows:
81 am q cook on the great lakes and
| have for five years suffered more than
pen or tongue could tell from stomach
trouble and have taken medicines
enough to float the boat l sail in, and
yet without any relief from pain.
There were long stretches of time
when I could not even keep milk or
wine or the lightest kind of food on my
stomach, and 1 had fallen away from
145 to los pounds in less than two
years. l saw so much in the newspa-
pers about your food Grape that
one day I decided to try 1t, altho with
out the least hope of success.
80 l bought package in Cleveland
and made the trial and my stomach
was so cranky / was afraid to try more
than one teaspoonful with a little milk.
To my surprise l kept it on my slom-
ach without any bad feelings and at
the end of an hour 1 knew it had d-
gested and gone to the right spot, SO
tried two teaspoonfuls more with the
same result. And now for the past
seven months l have lived almost en-
t.rely on Grape Nuts, where before
|simply lived on medicines, which con-
sisted principally of opiates that re-
lieved me for a time, but shattered my
NERVES and weakened my stomach.
soon after l began Grape-Nuts
gave up ali medicines, for l saw that
Grape Nuts was remaking me. Now
my nerves are back in their proper
shape and my stomach is SO strong that
can eat almost any kind of food with
out any suffering whatever.
TT may interest you to know that
your food is very fine in cases of sea-
sickness, for In this line it has no equal.
In many cases of very rough water I
have given Grape-Nuts to people on my
boat who We're seasick, when the sight
of even coffee would be unbearable, but
8 few teaspoonfuls of Grape Nuts pre-
pared with only water was taken and
more asked for and given with perfect
results.
you never saw two healthier or
happier youngsters than my two
grandchildren, who eat norhing else for
breakfast or supper but GrapeNuts.
There are two other men on my boat
besides myself who eat nothing else but
Grape Nuts for breakfast. Had it not
been for this perfect food | would now
be dependent OH my relatives for sup
port The fellows on the boat make
fun of me when they see ME coming
along with my little yellow package
but / guess under the circumstances l
can afford to laugh with them"

dy water has been coming thru the

and those at the pumping station do
not even know the cause. There has
been no flushing of mains, to roll the
water and so far as can be learned,
nothing is responsible but heavy con-
sumption. Even when in the best coA-

do their washing. causes the water to
be noticeably roily and it usually does
not settle down until afternoon. Such
