THE "lNVENTioN"
Grandma Found It Convenient.

It is remarkable what q change can be
made in q family by a. simple rearrange-
ment of food. ..ias III 555t II VIII
a Chicago mother says: much to my
surprise yesterday morning / found the
enclosed letter on my desk, written by
nv seven-year-old daughter without any
suggestion from n soul, and the little let
ter induced me to write something Of our
experiences.
First my son, who was very small and
weak, was sent out to visit one Of my SIS,
ters, and she induced him to start In on
Crane Nuts and cream In place Of tho
ordinary food used.
when tho boy came back after an alb
sence of5naboutF six months, we could
hardly believe our eyes. He had grown
over three inches IN height and was an
entirely different fellow lii every way,
always ready for any athletic sport pro-
posed and ON the keen so nll of the time,
whilo before he only wanted to sit or lilo
down, and suffered greatly from head
aches and general prostra tton,
$50 we put our little girl on Grape Nuts
and she grew wcll.nnd healthy and rosy
In q short time.
"Thnn mother, who Is So years old, be-
gan using Cirape-Nut!s and would fro
ulcntly put tile food into soup or with
IN egg into q bowl and pour broth over
1t.
"shc had formerly been troubled with
her stomach, suffering great pain at
times; now she says the Invention has
cured her and she uses Grape Nuts In q
variety OF ways--puddngs, dressing for
chickens or turkeys, griddle cakes and
ali sorts Of nice things. Md
."rhe boy has been using Grape Nuts
now forabout two years and has grown
something over z inches and gained about
81 pounds, and Is still improving
The little girls letter Is too long to re-
produce, but 1t is written In a very gcun-
Ming stylesand tells her own story Of how
she got over being sick and was able TO
60 to school again, making four grades
In short time, and how we'll and healthy
she folt and how; much she loved ,.,e
Grnpe-Nuts.
She heard her mother tell her a,,ntie
that "tirupe-Nuts was "a God-send," so
she thought God made Grape Nuts. until
'sho got hold OF the little recipo book one
day, which she found In the package

SHARKS OFFER BRIsE.
To Stop Interference With Their
Money Loaning Business.

Chicago, Feb. f. Loan sharks,
whose business has been ruined by
the district attorneys anti-usury cru
sade, have made a formal offer of a
$4,000 bribe to Assistant District At
tOrney Isadore J. Krasel to induce
him to drop the prosecutions. AS a
result of the bribe, Acting District
Attorney Rand is preparing to move
against several persons. Charges of
attempted bribery will be made as
soon as the district attorney can rivet
one more link in the chain of evil
dence. When the usurers saw that
Mr.. Krasel would not accept the $685.
600 bribe they intimated that the sum
would be doubled. Mr. Krasel's an
swer was to cause the arrest of four
more persons on the charge of usury.

BISHOP FARLEY SAILS FOR ROME
Reported That He is the Bearer of
the Decision of American Heir
archy on the Primate.

New York, Feb. 4.--Archbishop Far
ley sailed for Rome today and consid-
cradle interest is manifested in his
mission owing to the reports that he
is the bearer of the decision of the
American hierarchy regarding the pro-
ject for the creation of a primacy in
the United States. The archbishop
himself declined to discuss the matter
but persons in his confidence declared
that his trip to Rome at the present
time is merely in accordance with
the custom of the church requiring
new bishops and archbishops to visit
the Holy See soon after their eleva-
tion.
Archbishop Farley is accompanied
abroad by Father j. j. Hayes, chan
cellOr of the archdiocese, and Father
James V. Lewis, secretary to the arch
bishop.

MIDWEST IS PROSPEROUS
Business Reported Good From
Chicago Resources.
Improvement Shown in all Lines of
Business, Encouraged by Advanced
Prices for Securities and Grains
Lumber Market improves.

Chicago, ILL.,, Feb. 1.-The general
business situation in the Middle West
Is reported better now than it has
been for some months. With ad-
vanced prices for securities and
grains, with cotton at the highest
price since the war, and with slight
supplies of practically all materials
except pig iron the general condition
is genuinely healthy. The change in
the sentiment of the trades since No
vclnber has been remarkable, and the
indications are that the improvement
will continue indefinitely in almost
all branches of business.
Wire and nail mills are full of
orders for both domestic and foreign
accounts and the light hardware bust
ness is likewise showing signs of
improvement, many spring orders be-
ing received. Metals are stronger,
lead ore in the Joplin district advanc-
ing to the highest price within the
last ten years
The spring business in the dry
goods trade is fair, showing an inn
prOvement over last January. The
clothing trade reports better advance
order business than for several years
past. With the shoe trade more busi-
ness has been done than in the cor
responding period last year.
The lumber market is also in i'm.
a., L.,
mand from many interior sections,
There is a heavy demand from west
ern railroads for yellow pine. The
wholesale grocery trade, according to
best reports, is showing moderate eX-
pansiOn. Roadmen report good busi-
ness on the road, with easy collec-
tions, and the prospects are for a
still further improvement in the de,
mand for staples.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS BEST.
President Eliot Says Their Graduates
Do Better in College.

Do Better In College,
Cambridge, Mass, Feb. i.-During
the past year President Eliot, of lIar-
ward, had some statistics gathered as
to the relative methods of the work
and general efficiency of the boy who
prepares for college in the public
school and those who were prepared
in private schools.
These statistics show that the pub
lie school boy did better work on the
entrance examinations and after he
had got into college than the private
school boy.
Last June in the Harvard entrance
examinations the public school boy
both won more hOnors than the pri-
vatc school boy and fewer public
school boys failed in their cXamina-
tlons than the private school boys.
school man came out victorious. In
the entire graduating class at Harvard
last June l72 men graduated with hon
Ors; of this number 81 came to college
from public high schools, n from
academies and endowed schools. 80
from private schools and II from
other colleges
President Eliot says these facts are
limited to the ycdf under review, ald
are based on observation Of about 700
persons. So far as they go, however,
they lend no COuntcnanCe whatever to
the allegations that the public schools
turn out less vigorous and cOnscicn-
tious class of young men than the
other schools.
On the contrary, so far as they go,
they tend to prove that the product of
the public school has more character
and power of work than the product
of the other schools.
Concerning athletics, the report
says:
Games in which the public Is most
intcrested-fOot ball, base ball and
rowing-are seryiceable to a compar.
atiyeiy small number of students, no
one of these three sports serving more
than one-siXth of the total number of
students, who reported the exercises
they used The game which has been
conducted at Cambridge with the least
intelligence and success is foot ball
except from a pecuniary point of view
breaking up of college work for in.
dividual students and frequent alb
sences to play games at a distance
from Cambridge are an evil which
ought to be checked. 1t is a greater
evil than formerly now, that the inter
collegiate games take place all the
year round, in winter as well as in
spring and autumn.

CASE OF NEGLECT.

side was frozen, the 4-months-old child
