WHY LEAVES CHANGE COLOR.
Changes In Temperature AA4 III
Work Of jack Frost Are thu
Principal Agents.

"A kaf IL composed of a great num-
Der of cells, the walls of which are
brown. In the spring and summer
these cells are all filled with fluid, col
ored with minute grains of red, yellow
and other pigments, which, mixed to-
gether, appear green In the autumn,
through the cold, oxidation and other
changes take place in the leaf-cells,
destroying more or lessrapidly certain
of the color elements, says the Wom-
ans Home Companion. AS soon as one
of these elements is gone the leaf no
longer appears normal green, but as
sumes the shade of the remainder of
the color elements mixed together.
When only the red element is left the
leaf is red; when the yellow alone re-
mains, the leaf is yellow, and when all
the coloring matter is gone the leaf is
brown.
Frost IL not the sole cause of the
changes of color, but it is an important
cause. The nor gradual the changes
of temperature from summer heat to
winter cold, the greater will be the
variety and brilliancy in the c~oloring
OF the autumn leaves.

IMPORTANCE OF ALASKA.
Nave Occurred In That Country
n RoeenA Years,

Since 1896 five events have occurred
that wholly change conditions in
Alaska for the better, reports the
Engineering Magazine.
1. In that year the Klondike gold
discoveries we're made, and in 1897
and 1898 a great rush to and through
Alaska began, resulting in q doubling
of the population and in an output
of gold from the Yukon region to
date of $75,ooo,oo0.
2. In 1898 the Philippine islands
were acquired by the United States,
giving Importance to the direct route
along tho Alaskan coast between
North America and the new posies-
sions.
3. In 1899 gold was discovered on
the beach at Nome, and this carried
10000 people to this part of Alaska
and resulted in an output of $5,0Oo,-
OOQ in gold annually, Of more than
twice as much as all Alaska had pre-
viously yielded.
4. The Alaskan salmon fisheries, in
their infancy in 1896, have grown in
1902 to great companies, capitalized
for $20,000,O00 and with net earnings
last year of more than So, O0O, 900 and
employing 10000 men.
S. Two railroads have been con-
structed in Alaska, one Of which is in
the extreme southeast, costing $4,000
600, earned last year over So, 1000, 900 net,
n h other in the extreme north
west near Nome, a little road five
miles long, which earned $4,000 net.
6. Coal fields formerly specifically
known have been explored and inves-
tigated, while new ones of great val
ue have been discovered.

How the Moss Grows.

"A familiar belief is that moss grows
chiefly on the north side of trees,
writes the Sioux City Journal. The no.
ton is not established by science, and
an examination of many trees has
shown Prof. Henry Kraemcr, a Phila-
delphia botanist, that ten per cent. had
the moss on the west side, ten per
cent. on the northwest side, ten per
cent. on the north side, 20 per cent. on
the northeast side, IS per cent. on the

NOT Drugs
Food Did 1t.

After using laxative and cathartic
and apparently incurable constipation
yielded to the scientific food Grapefruit
in a few days. From early childhood I
suffered with such terrible constipation
that I had to use laxatives continuously
going from one drug to another and suf
fering more or less all the time.
"a prominent physician whom I con-
suited told me the muscles of the digest
i've organs were partially paralyzed and
could not perform their work without help
of some kind, 50 have tried at different
times about every laxative and cathar-
tic known but found no help that was at
all permanent had finally become dis
couraged and had given my case up as
hopeless when / began to use the pre-
digested food Grape-Nuts.
Although had not expected this food
to help my trouble to my great surprise
Grape Nuts digested immediately from the
first and in few days I was convinced
that this was, just what my system
needed.
"The bowels performed their functions
regularly and I am now completely and
permanently cured Of this awful trouble.
Truly the power of scientific food must
be unlimited" Name given by Postum

the bad kind. For further particulars see

SERVED ON IVERSON
Writ in Beet Sugar Case Issued by
the Supreme Court.
Argument on Validity of the Law
Of 1899 May Be Heard
Soon.

The supreme court has issued the writ
of certiorari prayed for by the Minnesota
Sugar Beet company, directing State Aud
itor Ivercon to furnish the records in the
case for the courts review. The writ IS
issued on the theory that the auditors
course in refusing to pay the 1900 bounty
was judicial act, and the court In re-
viewing it will decide whether the law
of 1899 was constitutional. The writ has
been served on Mr.. Iverson. After quoting
the statement Of facts set forth in the
petition, the writ says:
You are hereby commanded without delay to
send in supreme court certified copies OF
the record, proceedings and papers made, had or
received in your office relating to the matters
above recited and referred to, wherein you have
refused to issue warrant upon the state treas
urer in favor of said petitioner for certain
money claimed by said petitioner to be due 1t
from the state on account Of sugar manufac-
tured by said petitioner, so that having the same
in our supreme court may cause to be done
thereupon whta of right we shall deem proper In
the premises. ~.
The writ does not fix time for the re-
turn but the records will be furnished to
the court this week. The court will then
consider the constitutionality of the
bounty law. H. w. Childs and Judge Ell
Torrance will uphold the law, and Attor-
ney General Douglas will oppose it.. The
counsel for the company are anxious to
have it settled at this term Of court, and
the question may be submitted on briefs,
as the attorney general is going away on
legal business in few days, and would
not be here to take part in oral argu-
ment of the case.
The amount Of the claim is $19, 523 81.
The bounty paid in 1900 was $19,925.36,
from which is deducted $402.15, which
the state paid for the services of an in
spector at the factory. -
