BRAIN BUILDING.
How to Feed Nervous Cases

How to Feed Nervous Cases.
Hysteria sometimes leads to insanity
and should be treated through feeding
the brain and nerves upon scientific
ally selected food that restores the
lost delicate gray matter. Proof of the
power of the brain food Grape-Nuts is
remarkably strong.
About eight years ago when work

ously and was taken to the State Hos
pital for the insane at Lincoln, Neb., a

DIR. II. f. COyIe Thinks the Churches
of the Faith Will Become One
at No Distant Day.
MODIFICATION OF THE CREED
HAS LEFT NO MATERIAL DISTINC-
TION OTHER THAN CEREMONIAL.
Statement by the Rev. Ira Landritb,
of the FraternaI Union Committed
of the Cumberland Church.

DENVER, Col, Sept. 1.-Rev DIR. r. F.
Coyle, moderator of the General Assembly
of Presbyterian Church, who has just re-
turned to his home in this city from a
lecture tour in the East, believes that the
time is not far distant when the different
Presbyterian churches in the United States
will become one. This probability, he says,
is due to the reconstruction of the creed OF
his denomination which took place last
May. The lines which have so long kept
his and the Cumberland Presbyterian
churches separated have now, he says, been
effaced, and at present no distinctions other
than ceremonial separate the two great re-
ligious orders hat began as one in the
days of Cromwell.
Another STEP" said DR.. Coyle, that our
church took at the last General Assembly in
May, and one that tends toward the unity
idea, is to emphasize Christian education.
With intellectual development many sordid
distinctions that tend to keep churches sep
arated will be o~bliterated. Our church now
has an educational committee and upon it
has been imposed the duty of raising sl2,-
100000 for educational purposes. Most of
this money will be spent upon schools in
the West, for our institutions Of learning
in the East are in good shape financially.

ITALIAN SPY MURDERED
VISITED THE SBELLE OF LITTLE
Tally" IN NEW YORK,
And an Hour Later Was Found Dead
with a Bullet Hole I'm the Back
of His Head.

NEW YORK. Sept. ia. Rainio. former
ly an officer in the Italian army, and later
connected with the secret service in Italy,
was shot dead to-day in a hallway adjoin-
ing a saloon at Second avenue and East
One-hundred-and-thirteenth street. Rainio
came to this country three years ago.
While in Italy he had been instrumental in
the conviction of a number of dangerous
characters. 1t was said that he fled from
Italy to save his life, fearing that certain
men would kill him. He went to live in
Philadelphia and came to New York now
and then. While on one Of his visits he
made the acquaintance of Teresa Gianzzo,
a beautiful young woman, who is spoken of
as the 'belle of Little Italy," and who
lives over the saloon.
Rainio visited the girl to-day and about
an hour later two shots were heard and two
men were seen running from the house.
Rainio was found dead in the hallway, hav-
ing been shot through the back of the head.
Near the body the police found two side
combs, a pair of heels from a woman's
shoes and four pistol cartridges.
The girl, who raised an alarm that men
were robbing her apartment just before
the shots were fired, disappeared imme-
diately afterwards.
An Italian was arrested tonight on sus-
picion of being concerned in the murder.
