THEY LAUGHED
AT THE ARGUMENTS ON THE PACKAGES.

The husband of an Ohio woman brought home
some packages of Grape-Nuts one evening and
there was much discussion but let her tell the
story.
1.-Two years ago l thin and sickly and
suffered so from indigestion very nervous and
coeld not sleep at night, was not able physically
or mentally to perform my duties and was con-
stsntly under the care of our physician. had
tried plain living and all the different remedies
recommended by friends, but got no better.
Zone day my husband brought home two yellow
boxes and said, The grocer wants to try this
food and report how we like it. he thinks 1t VIII
help you / read all 1t said the boxes about
Grape-Nuts and l remember how l laughed at IT,
for l thought 1t foolish to think food could help
me. But the next meal we all ate with
cream. We liked and enjoyed the deliciously crisp
andenew favor. so we kept on using Grape-Nuts,
not because thought 1t would cure me, but be-
cause we liked It.
''At that time we had no idea what the results
would be but now am anxious to have the world
know that today am well and strong woman
physically and mentally. gained over 80 pounds,
do not suffer from any Of the old ails and know
that it is to Grape-Nuts alone that owe my re-
stored health. They call me 'Grape-Nuts' here In
the home aud all Of my friends have asked me the
cause OF 1t all. I have persuaded several Of them
to use Grape-Nuts and every Of them who has
done has been benefited. and wish 1t were in
my power to induce every one who Is sick to give
this wonderful food trial. We still have Grape
Nuts three times a day and tire OF It,"
Name given to Postum Co.. Battle Creek, Mich.
Ten days this nourshing and completely d.
gestible food will show any one who is run down
from improper feeding a great change, sometimes
worth more than a gold mine because 1t may mean
the JOY and spring Of perfect health In place Of
the old ails. Trial proves. There's reason"
Look In each package for the famous little book,
The Road to Wellville."

eratlon perhaps making another attempt
must begin all over again.
This is not the way. Such spasmodic
efforts will never do the work in the way
science today demands. There must be
continuous work extending over a series OF
years. The project should be taken up
with the understanding that it must be
carried on steadily for five or ten or more
years. 1t must be handled like any other
humdrum business proposition, it must be
Invested of any sensational tendency.
THE idea that as soon as party enters
the arctic or antarctic circle preparations
must begin for the rescue must be thrown
to the winds. The loss of ship or few
men must be discounted. Such things
happen every day in the maritime world,
but it does not keep other ships and men
from continuing the same voyages.
The point l want to make is that the
time is ripe, and we should have some
broad national project OF geographical in
vestigation of general interest, and co-ord1-
mated plan, on continuing basis, instead
of frittering away of time and money on
a variety of Investigations of a narrow
scope and often of small value.
THAT there are other fields Of investiga-
ton, of great value and promise, within
the domain of this congress goes without
saying. Recognized specialists In these
fields will bring them to the attention of the
congress in their own mastery way. 1
have spoken upon those things upon which
l think and feel strongly
Commander Peary expressed his apprecia-
ton of the honor of having been selected
as president of the congress, and paid a
tribute to President Roosevelt, the honorary
president of the congress, as that splendid.
vigorous, typical American, who stands at
our head today; the fearless unhesltating
man of magnificently welded thought and
action"
The report of the executive committee of
the seventh. international congress was
transmitted by Baron Richthofen, president
of that congress, through Prof. Oberhum-
mer of the University of Vienna. Baron
Richthofen expressed in letter his disap-
pointment at not being able to attend the
eighth congress.
Delegates Heard.
Commander Peary next presented the
Swiss minister, who In turn introduced
Prof. de Claparede, the delegate Of the
Swiss government. In behalf of his gov
eminent Prof. de Claparede extended to the
congress a most cordial invitation to hold
its ninth session in Geneva in 1903, that year
being the fiftieth anniversary of the found
ing of the Royal Swiss Geographic Society,"
Prof. Bella Erodi, representative of the
Hungarian government, was introduced,
and extended an invitation in behalf of his

Many good men have run away with
their wives. Remember n May
night, when thou and 1 sat by the
Collect in the moonlight, and thou
gave me this ring. What did thou
say t me that night?"
"'Tis years ago, Lysbet, and if l
have forgotten"
Forgotten! The words thou said
that night have been singing in my
heart for fifty years; and yet, if thou
must be told. some of those words
were about running away with thee;
for, at the first, my father liked thee
not"
"Lysbet! My sweet Lysbet! l have
not forgotten. For thy dear sake
will stand by Joris, though in doing
so l am sure l shall make some un-
friends"
Good, my husband. take leave to
say that thou art doing right"
well, them" said Hyde, "if my
grandmother stand by me, and you
also, I have no fear"
Then he rose, saying, II must ride
onward. My mother will not sleep
until she sees me-"
Then they walked with him to the
door, and watched him leap to his
saddle and ride into the twilight trem-
bling over the misty meadows, trink-
ling with dews. And a great melan-
choly fell over them, and they could
not resume the conversation. Joris
re-lit his pipe, and Lysbet went soft
ly and thoughtfully about her house
hold duties. 1t was one of those hours
in which Life distills for us her vague
melancholy wine; and Joris and Lys-
bet drank deeply of it.

Voice From Arkansas.

Cleveland, Ark, August Is (Spe-
cia).-Nearly every newspaper tells
of some wonderful cure of some form
Of Kidney Disease by the Great
American Remedy, Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and this part of Arkansas is
not without it's share of evidence that
no case is too deeply rooted for
Dodd's Kidney Pills to cure.
Mr.. A. e. Garlic, well known and
highly respected here, tells Of his
cure ~afternearly a quarter OF a GEN.
tury's suffering. Mr.. Garlic says:
II want to let the public know
what I think of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
| think they are the best remedy for
sick kidneys ever made.
81 had kidney trouble for % years
and never found anything that did me
so much good as Dodd's Kidney Pills.
| recommend them to all sufferers"
There is no uncertain sound about
Mr.. Carlile's statement. He knows
that Dodd's Kidney Pills rescued him
from a life of suffering and he wants
the public to know it. Dodd's Kidney
Pills cure all Kidney ills from Back
ache to Bright's. Disease.

He was later seen at a place east OF

he went to the farm of w. A. Swale,

companions had been working the

several weeks since. He was to have

FOR U. S. MINING BUREAU.
Secretary Wilson's Talk in Black Hills
Thouuht to Advocate It.

Secretary Wilson's Talk in Black Hills
Thought to Advocate It.
Great things are expected by the
Black Hills people from the visit of
James Wilson, secretary of agricul-
ture, who has been there investigating
mining and timber matters. He was
accompanied by Senator A. B. Kilt
redge. Secretary Wilson made a short
address before the Business Mems
club in Deadwood. He had spent the
day in the Homestake mine at Bald
mountain, viewing the source Of
the mining districts. He made the
statement, which is exceedingly in
teresting to the mining men Of the
Hills, that he thought the miner ought
to have as much assistance from the
government for experimental work as
the farmer. 1t was inferred from his
statement that he is in favor of a bu-
reau Of mining, supported by the gov
eminent, which is 30 greatly desired
by the mining men of the country. He
spent two days with Capt. Seth Bull
lock, forest supervisor of the Black
Hills forest reserve, studying the con-
dition of the pine trees.
