-
Bones of Ancestors.
Golfers Weekly: The worship of an
cestors is curiously carried on among all
tribes. Twice a year their bones are dug
up and relig.ously washed, it being ludi-
crous in the extreme to watch the prefer
natural gravity with which the natives 90
about this s%tupendous operation, carrying
huge pots Of wa ter to the open graves and
religiously %scrubbing the bones. When l
first saw this operation It struck me as
being remarkably funny. but to the ma
tives themselves 1t is an intensely solemn
and sacred ceremony. AS the possession
of a large "bonery'' gives to the fortunate
proprietor great power in the tribe. these
bones are seized upon for debt or on the
Inauguration of a feud. the persons or
family so deprived of their sacred relics
being summed by the others until the
bones shall have been redeemed.
One of the most remarkable of all the
strange myths believed in by this curious
people is one pertaining to the sun, moon
and stars. The sun is believed to be an
immense ball of yals-meat and fat. where
on the spirits of departed ancestors are
supposed to feast. the light being caused
by its heated condition. The stars are
portions Of this immense feast, which.
dropping TO the earth, give birth TO ami
mails for the sustenance of suffering lu-
mainly. The moon they conceive to he a

the larger one is being replenished for
the morrow. the ron-appearance of the
sun or moon on cloudy or stormy days
being for by the fact that the
deit.es are undergoing a period of fasting
and religious abnegation. The parched
and desert condition of sterile regions Is
ascribed to the fact that many thousand
years s this immense ball slipped from
the hands of its keepers. and. descending

HAS A SAY.

h School Principal Talks -About Foot
The Principal of a High School in a
fourishing California city says:
"For % years l worked in the school
with only short summer vacations. I
formed the habit Of eating rapidly,
masticated poorly, which coupled with
my %sedentary work led to indigestion,
liver trouble, lame back and rheuma-
tism.
Upon consulting physicians some
doped me with drugs, while others pre-
scribed dieting and sometimes | got
temporary relief, other times not. For
l. years l struggled along with this
handicap to my work, seldom laid up,
but often a burden TO myself with
lameness and rheumatic pains.
1.-TWO years ago met an old friend,
n physician who noticed at once my
out-of-health condition and who pre-
scribed Cor me an exclusive diet OF
Grape-Nuts. milk and fruit.
81 followed his instructions and in
two months l felt like a new man
with no more headaches, rheumatism
or liver trouble and from that time to
this ~Grape-Nuts has been my main
food for morning and evening meals,
am stronger and healthier than l have
been for years without a trace of the
old troubles.
Judging from my present vigorous
physical and mental state, I tell ny
people Methuselah may yet have to
take second place among the old men,
for l feel like l will live a great many
more years.
ITO all this remarkable change in
health am indebted to my wise friend
and Grape-Nuts ard l hope the Postum
Co. will continue to manufacture this
life and health giving food for several
centuries yet, until l move to a world
where indigestion is unknown" Name
given by Postum Co., Battle Creek,
Mich.
Ask any physician what he knows
about Grape-Nuts. Those who have
tried It know things.

MEAT FAMINE SURE

BOYCOTT IS MADE kLL.lNclUSIvE
An Extreme step Taken by the strike
Leaders at Chicago, Indicating Their
Intention TO Fight to . Finish-Ail
Packing Establishments Whatsoever
Brought Under the Ban.

Chicago, Special-"A meat famine
will be forced at all costs. 1t is the
best weapon with which to fight the
trust packers, although it may not be
welcomed by the independents"
In these words President Donnelly. OF
the butchers national organization, de-
clared a boycott against all meat and
announced that union men will quit
in all packing establishments this af-
tcrnoon regardless OF where live stock
is secured.
Donnelly's announcement was made
az the conclusion OF g meeting OF the
allied trades conference board.
The executive board Of the Retail
Meat Dealers Association Of Chicago
had just been in conference with Mr..
Donnelly and his associates. having
come to ask certain concessions for the
Independent packers and to seek au-
thority to attempt to bring about a
meeting between the packers and
representatives of the strikers.
By ignoring these latest attempts at
peace and adopting such an aggres-
slve step, the strike leaders demon
strated the intention to make it a fight
to a finish. Indications are that the
five independent packers within the
stockyards enclosure will join the big
Isckers in their fight, while those out
side will endeavor to continue opera
, ton with union crews. Within the
yards the independents are obviously
preparing for war, wagon load OF
cots having been taken to one plant.
The police record of the strike at the
stockyards station to date reads: AS
saults, 46; murders, 4; accidents, 81;
removed to hospitals, 43."
