HARDLY A CENT FOR
 CHADWICK CREDITORS
Continued from First Page.o MRS. OAAD WIoK STILL IN 1oMBs
Talk of Bringing Dr. Chadwick from
 Europe. .5#s

New York, Dec. 11.-From present In dications it is extremely unlikely that an attempt will be made to obtain bail for Mrs. Chadwick, who has been in the Tombs since last Thursday night on a charge of aiding and abetting bank of ficials in the ernbezzlement of $12,500. She was held under $15,00O bail.
 For several days it has been rumored that Dr. Leroy s. Chadwick was either in Paris, Berlin or Brussels, but an in vestigation by the Associated Press representatives in those places failed to reveal his presence although many let ters are awaiting the physician at the Hotel Metropole, Brussels, where he Is a regular patron.
 Philip Carpenter, Mrs. Chadwick's s counsel was asked tonight concerning the whereabouts of the husband of his client but he declined to say. MT. Car penter also asked to be excused from discussing is future action relating to Mrs. Chadwick's troubles.
 It would not be good policy he said, ito anticipate in any way. our line of action" A lawyer who has been connected with the recent financial difficulties of Mrs Chadwick, said to-day in reference to the report that steps might eventual ly be taken to compel the return of Dr.
 Chadwick to this country:
 Any person who says that Dr. Chad wick can be brought back to the United States against his will because he gave Herbert D. Newton checks which were returned marked without funds'' knows nothing of the law. Had the doctor bought a coat and give a worth- less check, he could have been held for obtaining money under false pretences but in this case there was no value re- ceived. He is said to have given two checks aggregating $5,0O0 as a part pay ment of his wife's indebtedness, The checks were valueless but ocrirne was | committed for pr. Chadwick received nothing. MT. Newton received nothing. Tn other words, there was moi value re- ceived and therefore no crime comnnit- ted.
 It has been said that Mrs. Chadwick settled $2,500,000 of the money she bor- rowed on her husband three years ago. That will be q difficult thing to prove. It must first be shown that she borrow led that amount of money and then

"MANNA''
The old Biblical Term Suggests Good
 Food.

Such remarkable changes can be brought about by food properly selected that the best physicians now look to the encouragement of persons diet as one of the most important things.
 A member of the Clinic Publishing Co. publishers of medical journals in Chicago, writes as folows,. and says that he does not object to our using his name publicly.
 q wish to state a few facts which will show to you why there is, and ever will be, in my heart most grateful appreciation of Grape-Nuts as life giving, nerve strengthening and health restoring food
 Nv eldest son. William R., was taken with a severe attack of scarlet fever. This left him in state of such utter collapse and prostration of nerve force and energy that he was unable to sus- tain his own weight.
 A complication of troubles followed; the kidneys became affected, and the doctors all declared his case hopeless.
 Naturally the stomach was too en- feebled to retain or assimilate solid 1000, anu Illih, ueel lSet e1llu tilG 1lhSi soon became nauseating to him.
 Simply as an experiment a spoonful of Grape-Nuts was suggested, and tried Its predigested constituents seemed tc exactly suit my boys case, Eureka! We had indeed found it.
 He not only retained the food but rel ished it and asked for more. From that very day he began to mend and in three weeks was convalescent. Gradually from mere skin and bones Will has grown ruddy, bright eyed and manly weighing now. at fifteen years of age over 130 pounds.

never carried their own burdens, and therefore have no strength: of body, mind, or character to help any other bear his load.
 It is possible for us in our zeal to do good to others to hinder the Lords work which He would accomplish in us, and in our neighbors, in the com mon school of life. Our zeal may not be according to knowledge, however sincere we are. Frantic, untimely efforts, misguided by mistaken spirit, often do great and permanent injury to the spiritual lives of many, out of all proportion to the good which may seem to be accomplished. It IS weak ness of faith and not the power of God which leads one to presume to take upon himself the responsibility for others which the Lord has not laid upon him. As though we could safely undertake that which Christ alone can dO and has left undOne.

A mild evening after the intense
 cold of ''the old-fashioned winter"
 weather that we have had, brought
 out some 30 persons to the meeting of the Literary Circle, on Monday even- ing, at the home of Mrs George F. Duncombe. It seems that every
 writer which is taken up has a charm
 all his own; and were the club not on tourist journey, they might we'll
 spend whole winter becoming firm friends of Scott or Burns or Words
 worth, instead of simply shaking hands
 and passing along. We do not, how ever, pretend to be delivers into the world s best literature; we are merely bees who arensipping some sweets as
 we fly over the verdant meadows.
 This hour with Scott was by general
 testimony the pleasantest evening
 that the circle has thus far spent.
 Prof Ross Jewell took charge of the
 program, and it was owing to his skill
 full leadership that the waters rippled
 so smoothly along. When you are go-
 ing through "a new country, it makes quite a difference, after all, what kind of dragoman you employ. w. P. Tom lin opened the evening by giving run
 ming sketch of Wentworth and read
 ing the law upon which the story was
 founded. Master Edward Egan sur
 priscd the company by the way in which he sketched the outline of Rob
 Roy. He seemed right in his element and to the literary manor born, as, without any reference to notes, he told the story, and, as all would sure ly say who heard him, the whole story. We'll make smart lawyer out of that young chap Isome day. Mrs Ar thur J. Smith sweetly sang some of the songs that were born on the Scot tish heather, land Miss s. J. Scudder read cluster of bright poetic gems snatched from the setting of the his torical novels. One was dainty lul- laby that would soothe the crossest baby to sleep. Miss s. Elizabeth Goodwin recited we'll the poem about young Lochinvar who came out of the l West. Miss Margaret Keane and Miss Eleanor Northrop recited brief poems. Rev Otis w. Barker gave a sketch of the life of the heroic, noble-hearted Scott, and we'll told how the lone lit- tie boy grew up to write "The Day | of the Lost Minstrel.' His pathetic, l noble struggle to rid himself of the enormous debt of PLY, 1000, in which his publishers had involved him, and his Christian death in beautiful Ab- bottsford, the whole populace uttering one great, deep moan as his body was laid away in DreYburg Abbey, formed

In the prime of life, blessed with a host of friends, the summons came and she has passed on to the "Better Land." A loving wife, a kind and generous neighbor has gone from US.

She was of happy, social disposition and no gathering seemed was very energetic and industrious woman and the products of her skill and labor have reaped many a premi- um at the various agricultural fairs.
