HARBORMASTER SUTTON

Commissioner Macfarland. of the Dis
trict Board. who has supervision of the
office of the Harbormaster, today com
mended the prompt action of Harbor-
master J. r. Sutton at the fire last
night, which resulted in the saving of
District and other property. But for
Mr. Sutton's energy in getting out the
fire department and in bringing into use
the limited facilities at his command to
check the flames. Commissioner Mac

stroyed.
The Commissioner conveyed his thanks
TO Mr.. Sutton and said his action was
similar to the good work done for the

WHITE BREAD.
Another Proof in the Controversy.

Under certain conditions white bread,
potatoes, and all starchy food fails to
digest and bowel troubles and appendf-
citis are likely to follow unless the food
is changed.
After consulting five physicians, the
last three of whom declared that an
operation for appendicitis was the only
way to save her life, a young lady Of
Bloomington, Ind, recovered her health
entirely with no other aid than Grape
Nuts, the scientific predigested cereal
food
She says: Three years ago l had an
attack ofGwhat my family physician pro-
nounced congestion of the bowels and
stomach.
He treated me for some time. but /
continued to grow weaker, constantly
subject to the same attacks. 1 was COM
PEELED TO give up my studies at college.
In the meantime I consulted another
physician. Finally I went to a specialist
who pronounced 1t catarrh of the stom-
ach and acute appendicitis. I was IN
der his care for about three weeks, when
had another attack. and my parents
called other physicians. who claimed
that nothing but the removal OF. the ap-
pendiX would save my life.
my parents refused TO permit this
and / was left total wreck. weak, nerv-
Gus, unable TO eat. 1t was then that
they tried Grape-Nuts, 1eedlng me
teaspoonful three times a day. Upon
this food alone I improved from the
start, to the great wonder of my fam
lily. For two months l ate nothing but
Grape Nuts and drank beef tea Since
that time (which was more than year
ago) have not had the slightest illness
and I am now strong and able to study
again. I know that I owe my restored
health to Grape Nuts and I now eat II
constantly" Name furnished by Pos
tum Co. Battle Creek, Mich
In this case as in most cases of ap-
pendicftis the trouble started with in
ELIMINATION of the bowels resulting from
the use of pasty, starchy foods, that
were undigested in the stomach and
went into the intestines in an undi-
gested condition, fermenting there and
starting disease. Too much white bread
will do this. Relief and final cure came
when the improper food was left off and
Grape Nuts Tin which the starches have
been transformed into grape sugar by a
predigesting process) was used. Al
though all of the rebuilding elements
are there in GraneNuts. the food is 80
pure that the most delicate stomach
relishes and digests it.

Two Additional Reports Ct Dynamltc
Outra3es.
st. Paul, Oct. 10. = Two additional
reports of dynamite outrages on the
Northern Pacific came in from the
West yesterday, one outlining the de-.
struction of bridge west Of Helena
and the second stating that stick Of
dynamite with fuse and caps attached
had been found on the track west of
Butte. The first report originated
from the destruction of Grey Cliff
bridge by fire. Sparks thrown by a
passing locomotive ignited the tim
bers of the east end of the bridge
and it was partially burned. Official
reports state that there was no evil
dence of incendiarism, or of any con-
nection with the operations of the
dynemiters. Northern Pacific head
quarters officials can give no further
information concerning the discovery
of dynamite on the tracks near Butte.
The press report states that Dan Gill
more, an inmate of the county poor
farm, found the explosive yesterday
morning and removed it in time TO
prevent an accident.

Wet He Favored.
Eldora. Iowa, Oct. 10-Because he
was kind to convict at the Anamosa
penitentiary, Frank Helad of Upton
has just been appointed to lucrative
position in an Eastern steel company
in Pennsylvania, and has been in
trusted with the management of a
great department in the company.
Samuel R. Dawson, who possessed the
secret for the manufacture of
Damascus steel, was a convict in the
prison when Head was assistant to
the prison warden as secretary.
Head favored the old man Dawson
in many ways, sympathized with the
convict and gave him many favors.
When the governor pardoned Mr..
Dawson large Eastern corporation
with unlimited capital made con-
tract with Dawson, and since that
time the company has been manufac-
turing the steel as divulsed by the
former convict's secret.

three hours, Miss Marie Novak,

taken i'll two physicians. Doctors
Lloyd of Chandler and Wager OF Bijou
Mills, both men of experience. were
summoned to attend her. They de-
cided that an operation was neces-
sary. and when preparing to perform
it administered an opiate to the pa
tient. This took immediate effect but
she rapidly sank and exhibited all the
symptoms of being dead Not the
faintest sign Of life could be discov-
cred. and the two physicians united in
pronouncing her dead. After remain
ing in lifeless condition for three
hours she revived and soon again was
in possession of her faculties.

in this part of the state. From two

the colony harvested 600 bushels Ct

nearer 700 bushels than 900. The po-

profit of from $500 to $3.50 from their

considerable agitation of late on the
part of several citizens and the boast
by the gamblers that they were pay

the horse walked out, eating so freely
of the corn that it died the next day.
