FEEDING A DOCTOR.
His Body Changed by Change in Foo


A convincing bit of testimony to
show what a simple change of food
can sometimes do to end apparently
incurable disease is told in the fol-
lowing article by a Chicago physician.
The case cs my own. / had been
suffering for more than 25 years with
nervous dyspepsia insomnia, occas-
ional kidney trouble, and general dis
turbance of my whole system. My
appetite was affected and so lost
weight and strength, but most serious
of all was the gradual failure of my
memory, proving that my brain and
nerves were not getting the proper
food any more than the rest of my
body.
Three times made the journey to
Carlsbad. and spent fortune con-
sulting famous physicians and spe-
cialists in this country and Europe but
never got any permanent results. All
the medicines known to science failed
to give me even temporary relief In
spite of the fact that I was always
exceedingly careful in my diet. was
on the verge CT despair and never
looked forward to being well again.
zone day about two years ago was
staying at a hotel in Minneapolis ac-
companied by famous European
physician. DR.. Werner. Of Berlin. and
there we nOtced new 1000 on the
menu called Grape-Nuts. Having lit
tie desire to eat ! ordered some lust
to see what IL looked like and then
was nersuaded to try II.
What I experienced was not short
of wonderful.
mot only did the new food taste so
good 7 relished n but for the first time
in many wears felt entirely free from
the terrible pressure on the stomach
which 7 had always suffered even
after the lightest meal. On my return
to Chicago nv very first act was to
order Grape-Nuts sent to my home
where the whole family relish Il so
thew use IL daily without any urging,
and we expect to do 80 as long as we
live.
"As the result only Of this change
OF food to Grape-Nuts the awful dis
ease which I suffered with for more
than 20 years disappeared entirely in
about three weeks. have regaAned

store and entire stock of merchandise,
valued at $4,000. by fire. early yester-

ing a great deal of suspicion, though
nothing definite is known thus far.
While everything points to incendiar-
ism. Notwithstanding the extraordi-
nary dry season, it is not the desire of
the people of the community that any
thing more should be said Of the mat

The Race Question.
After speaking on these four PROPOSE
tions, during the latter part of his
speech, Mr.. Smith said
The attitude of the Republican par
ty and its candidate for President
threatens the peace and tranquility Of
a great section of the union, the sec
ton known as the South. This section
was already confronted with a serious
problem, the presence of 100000 ne
groes, the large majority of whom need
direction in their daily walks of life
from their white neighbors. This daily
aid is required on account of the SUI
perior qualities of the white race.
Any effort to force equality will neces-
sarily injure the negroes, as we'll as
disorganze the relations under which
the agricultural and commercial growth
of the South must take place.
Under the wise administrations of
Cleveland, Harrison and Mckinley each
day brought new evidence that the
problem of two different races living
side by side was being handled wisely
and justly by the stronger race freed
from outside interference.
AS one of the proofs of this fact, it
may be mentioned that the white peo-
pie of the South have paid by volun-
tary taxes on the property over $780,
100000 for the education of negro chill
dren.
The harm already accomplished by
Roosevelt and the Republicans is seri-
Gus.
The South is contributing a full part
of the commercial growth of the coun-
try.
A blow against our section Injuries
all sections.
We should especially ask those in
terested in Southern investments to re-
fleet upon this situation before they
give approval to the present course of
the Republican party and it's candidate
for President.
