"Lives of rich men, if we knew them, Night not seem so blamed sublime, of the stomachs fastened to them, Eeep them doping all the time."
Wall strc ct Poet.

The grind for moHey and fame nova days works the brain so hard that It takes away the power from the stom- ach and so Financiers, Lawyers. Doc tors. Merchants. Great Actors, School Teachers and even thinking and sue cessfuI Farmers suffer from a lack of power to digest food.
 Fact, Fact! Fact! and a deplorable fact.
 But there's a way out of it. An old thoughtful money maker was an in valid for about s years. During this time and four years after. he studied Foods, Hygiene, Dietetics. Medicine and Suggestive Therapeutics. He got we'll and during the F years of experi- ence and study developed a way for brain workers to keep well. He has | been over the hard and rough roadway step by step. Does his experience count for anything? Can he point you to the rocks that ruin men? Can he guide you to safe and helpful channels?
 Since he got we'll he has made 10 or | 12 million dollars which is one evidence of the practical results and literally | thousands of brain workers in Ameri- ca and England date their recovery to health and money making power from the day they began to follow his ad vice.
 What is it?
 First quit coffee absolutely. It slow | ly and surely eXhausts the elements in brain and nerve centres that must be there or brain flag follows. In order to do this take up Postum Coffee for it supplies the phosphates and other elc- ments needed to naturally, by food in liquid form, rebuild the broken down gray matter in brain and nerve cen | tres.
 This same is true of Grape-Nuts breakfast food.
 Set up your breakfast like this: A little fruit, cooked preferred. A dish of Grape Nuts (not a large one) with some thick. rich cream Qnsist on iO a cup of hot Postum Coffee with thick cream, one or two soft eggs. Nothing more unless it be slice of entire wheat bread. The same for luncheon. then for the night dinner have a good generous portion of meat. one or two vegeta bles, Grape-Nuts pudding and a cup of Postum Coffee and insist on the thick cream.
 You will digest these meals, sleep like baby and find the next day that something has been going on in your body that gives you the delicious sense of power and health and you can in a masterful way do things" and get re- suits.
 Is it worth while? The masters of mankind are first masters of them selves and put into practice the knowl- edge of trained experts in the art of body and brain building.
 You can rule if you will. You must have healthy body and brain to do it. There's a reason and its just good old common sense.

A REAL CHINESE PLAY.
Some Observations on a Visit to a
 Quaint Theater in New York.

Our popular idea of the Chinese play as an interminable affair, running alorg continuously for several days and nights, is greatly exaggerated, IT not wholly erroneous. The notion may have arisen from the fact that there is no drop curtain nor division into acts; and that even when two or more short pieces are played in one evenings pnr- formance there is no intermission be- tween them. except a gong signal in- telligible only to Chinamen. The aver . age play or performance, however, seems to be about twice as long as oars. In Doyers street it begins before 6 D. m., and continues without pause or break until close upon midnight. More over, in the classic repertory there are cycles or successions of related histor- ical plays of certain dynasties, like the part l., II. and III. of Shakespeare's s "King Henry VI.," in the Plantasenet series. One celebrated drama consists of twentyfour scenes, or sections, which are virtually so many acts It is difficult, of course, for the average sight seeing American who peeps in at this theater of the slums, playing to an audience of pigtailed laundrymen. to conceive that it bears any relation whatever to classics of history, liter
 ature. art or tradition. Further ac- quaintance will develop respect, then interest, possibly even admiration. Here, in truth, is survival of forty centuries, Does not the "Shu- King ' or book of history, compiled by the great Confucius, tell of Chinese music and symbolical dances-the primitive form of the worlds drama-fully 1000 years before Christ?

A PEERLESS GEM.

There is now in Amsterdam, for the purpose of being worked in the dia- mond cutting shops, the largest dla- mond in the world. and one that is unique in the annals of the trade So much is this the case that special turn ing and other tools have had to be manufactured for dealing with it. The stone is as large as a hens egg, and weighs 910 carats. II Is thus twice as large as the Koh-i-Noor, which weigh ed 800 carats before being cut.

A TWO YEAR OLD CRIME
And the Settlement of the Dog Catch
 CTS Feud.

w. F. Thomas of Liberty precinct was in town yesterday and while here ribbed up d lttle business for Justice Robertson. He saw on the street a Mexican with the rythmical name of Hermengildo Chacon, who worked for him on his ranch couple of years ago. When he left Liberty he took with him a couple of razors and other sundries from MT. Thomas store. Mir. Thomas says he stole them, and as yes terday was their first meeting since then he had the Mexican arrested. Hermengildo admitted that he had talk en the razors, but said he paid for them. He therefore pleaded not guilty and his trial was set for 10 clock this morning. but it will probably be con- tinued, for the defendant demanded two Mexicans in Buckeye for witness es and they cannot get here by that hour.
 The dog catchers' feud was settled by Justice Robertson yesterday. and with out bloodshed. Verdugo. the man un- der arrest for interfering with an off cer, the other dog catcher, while try ing to arrest two other quarreling MeXicans on Monday, was found guilty and fined g, which he paid, and amica- ble relations were again restored all

COMET ON EXHIBITION.
And How to Find It at 10 O'clock
 Tonight.

The comet season is again on ana those with d weakness for star-gazing are more than happy. A brand new comet was discovered about three weeks ago by d French astronomer, and at this time the papers are deVot- ing much space to it. It is rather an unusual comet for the reason that it is traversing the heavens at a. terrific speed, faster than an automobile, and fin the course of an hour it will cross the disc Of n fairly large telescope. l.. c. Masten of this city, himself good amateur astronomer and the possessor
 of fine telescope. discovered the comet for himself a few nights ago and be-
 fore he had read about it in the papers,
 though he makes no claim to the orig inal discovery. Better than all, he saw
 1t first with the naked eye. but sup
 posed 1t was only an ordinary nebula till he turned the glass on it and watched 1t glide through space.
 For the benefit of local star-gazers who know how to locate the important
 heavenly bodies, directions are given below for finding it tonight. The comet,
 the star Vega and the star Deneb will tonight form almost an equilateral tri-
 angle with Vega almost oIrectly over
 head at 10 o'clock p. m. Deneb will be q little distance down in the northeast ern heavens and the comet will form the apex of the triangle pointing to the north. Those who can find Deneb and Vega ought easily to locate the comet. PrcscsUr w. W. Campbell of Lick l observatory. under date of July 12th, gives out the following: The comet dis
 covered by Morelly at Marseilles three
 weeks ago has been under observation 1 by various members of the Lick obser- vatory staff. It promises to be an un- usually interesting object. Its bright
 ness has increased very rapidly until ! it is now easily visible as a fourth
 magnitude star.
 Te orbit of the comet has been com puted by Professor Perrine. It is now
 in parabola in such a way that its | nearest approach to the sun will occur
 on August 27th at distance of about 1 3l ,OOO GOO miles Its present distance from the sun is about 100. GOO miles and from the earth about 20,00O, 900. | To the unassisted eye the comet will
 appear as a hay patch of light. Ar acute eye should be able to detect a 1 short tail projecting away from the i sun Our photos have recorded two prominent tails, each several degrees | in length.
 ! While it is always unsafe to make predictions as to how bright a comet will grow. yet there is little doubt that
 this one will be fairly conspicuous i object in the evening sky. In fact
 should expect it to be the brightest ! comet of the past ten years.
