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 l got
temporary relief, other times not. For
IL years I 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 .frieid,
a physician who noticed at once my
out-of-health. condition and who pre-
scribed for me an exclusive diet Of
Grape-Nuts, milk and fruit.
''I followed his instructions and in
two months felt like new man with
no more headaches, rheumatism or

this Grape-Nuts has been my main
food for morning and evening meals,

A Suicide.

After he had been arrested and re.
leased on a charge OF beating his wife,
Peter Engh a prosperous farmer who
resided near st. Hilaire, hung himself
to a tree near his house. His body was
found by persons passing the highway.
Engh returned home from st. Hilarie,
after he had drank freely, and it is
charged, beat his wife, driving her
from the house.
Neighbors heard of the trouble and
secured a warrant, which it was found
later, had been illegally drawn up.
Engh was taken to Red Lake Falls
where he was released. Sobered by
his experience, he returned home, and
found his wife critically i'll. Neigh
bors believe that remorse and melan'
choly, the consequence of his drinking,
caused him to end his life.

cell blankets, Harry Smith, %, held on

perior to the other, unless it be in the
case of William Wylie in his presentation

have evidently taken their lessons In the

Broadway than from lower Louisiana,
where the action is supposed to take
place. The characters are more those of
the south as they are popularity supposed
to be than of the south as they are.
/ Wylie Is the only actor who looks like a

to affectations which would lead to shoot

Reasons Enough for a. Choice.

William H. Putnam of Boston, writ
ing to the Outlook, gives view of
the presidential issue that will appeal
to. many independent voters, now that
the opposition has made clear it's inten-
tion to contest the campaign on the per-
sonality of the two candidates.
Mr.. Putnam cannot see what issues
separate the parties that are of enough
moment to influence many voters, and
for his own part he sees things in both
platforms that please him. So with him
it comes down to a question Of the per-
sonal fitness Of Theodore Roosevelt and
Alton B. Parker for the presidency.
Roosevelt g entire life has been spent in
doing things, and his official experience
has been executive, whether as civil
service commissioner, assistant secre-
tary Of the navy, governor or president.
On the other hand, Judge Parker has
never held an executive office. His
public life has been spent in judicial po-
sitions, and his naturally judicial habit
of mind has been Influenced by his years
of service on the bench. This expert
ence, in the correspondent g opinion, has
served to unfit the judge for presi-
Dental office. If elected, he would be
too much the stickler for forms and
precedents, and not enough the man of
action. If the two were candidates for
chief Justice of the United States,
Judge Parker would be the man to
choose. Since they are candidates for
the presidency, Mr.. Putnam declares
for Roosevelt.
This reasoning is sound, so far as the
personality goes, but there is more in.
volved. While the president stamps
his individuality on the administration
he is not entirely independent of his
environment. Roosevelt, with u his
strong individuality, is more free from
surrounding influence than any presi
dent Of recent years, but he is quite
willing to take advice, and has profted
by the counsel Of men like Root, Hay
and Taft. On the other hand, as little
as we know about Judge Parker, we
already understand that he is domi
mated by the personalities Of Hill, Bel
mont, Sheehan and McCarren, machine
politicians with trust antecedents. Ii
the event OIL TarKer SUCCESS, THESE
men would stand ,at his side and sway
his decisions. -..v .:
The situation presents a choice, MOI
only between Roosevelt and Parker, bu1
between tried leadership, with a RECORD
Of faithfulness and success on the on
hand, and the potential 1nisrule of pea
nut politics on the other. It ough
not to be hard for the Independent
voter to make choice.

English Language in the Orient.

A knowledge Of a. foreign language
for commercial purposes is becoming
less and less necessary to those who
speak English. A recent number of the
North China News, published at Shang-
hal, cites some facts with regard to the
popularity Of the English language in
the orient which have a bearing upon
future commercial relations. This
paper states that in the interior as well
as in the coast provinces Of China, the
younger generation is becoming exceed
ingly eager to learn the English Ian
guage. Schools have been established
for this purpose, where ghigh fees are
