NEW YORK TORNADO.
Tree Blown Down Upon Assembly Ol
 Picknickers.

Buffalo. N. Y. August 26.--A special to The News from Dunkirk, describes the tornado which swept across Chat auqua county yesterday.
 The worst havoc was wrought in the town of Stockton. where about 5000 persons had assembled at the annual town picnic in a grove. It was here that four persons lost their lives and a number of others were injured. Tho majority of the epople ot the picnic were assembled beneath the trees watching the sports when the darken- ing sky warned the multitude of the approach of a storm and drove them to cover.
 An immense oak fell upon the crowd gathered under its shelter and from beneath the tree wre dragged the kill ed and injured.
 The full extent of the casualties will not be knewn for some time as many of the injured were taken to their homes as soon as the storm was over.
 It is reported that several persons were knocked down and trampled up- on by runaway horses and that oth- CTS were thrown from their carriag- and hurled aginst trees in other TUT . aways. Three horses were killed by trees falling upon them.
 It Is said the apple crop has been practically ruined and crops in the fields suffred greatly

AS EASY.
Needs Only q Little Thinking.

The food of childhood often decides whether one is to grow up well nour' ished and healthy or weak and eickly from improper food.
 It's just as easy to to be one as the other provided we get a proper start.
 A wise physician like the Denver Doctor who knew about food, can ac- corhplish wonders provided the patient Is willing to help and will eat only proper food.
 Speaking of this case the Mother said her little four -year-old boy was suffering from a peculiar Arrangement of the stomach. liver and kidneys and his feet became so swollen he couldn't take a step. We called a Doctor who said at once we must be very careful as to his diet as improper food was the only cause of his sickness. Sugar es- pecially, he forbid.
 50 the Dr. made up a diet and the principal food he prescribed was Grape Nuts and the boy. who was very fond of sweet things took the Grape Nuts readily without adding any sugar. (Dr. explained that the sweet in Grape Nuts is not at all like cane or beet sugar. but is the natural sweet of the grains).
 We saw big improvement inside a few days and now Grape-Nuts are al- most his only food and he is once more a healthy. happy, rosy-cheeked young ster with every prospect to grow up into a. .strong healthy man" Name given by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich.
 The sweet in Grape-Nuts ls the Ma ture-sweet known as Grape Sugar. not digested in the liver like ordinary sugar, but pre-digested. Feed the Youngsters a handful of Grape Nuts when Nature demands sweet and prompts them to call for sugar.
 There's a reason.

TAFT AT MONTPELIER
SECRETARY OF WAR DEPENDS THE
 PRESIDENT.
Denies thnt Roosevelt is HeRdlong and Impulsive, Averring that the Chief Executive is Quite
 Timetable.

Montpelier, Vt, Aug. 26.-Secretary of War William H. Taft addressed Re publican rally in Monterey Hall this af. ternoon.
 Secretary Taft briefly reviewed the issues and history of the parties and discussed the platforms of both par. ties.
 In a review of the administration of President Roosevelt, to whom tho greater portion of the speech was de voted, Secretary Taft eulogized the President highly. saying:
 J'"Unable really to attack the record ~f the Republican party. unable really
 9 take any ground which makes a comfortable issue with the Republicans on the main questions. the Democrats now seek to attack the President ana to charge him with violations of the Constitution; with a headstrong dispo- sition to rule or ruin; with a tendency to involve the country in foreign wars, with being, in other words, an unsafe man.
 Tn my experience. I never have mot man In authority who has less pride of opinion in Judgments that he has formed in respect to situations pre- sented to him for action than has Theo :. dore Roosevelt. I have never met a man who was so amenable to reason so anxious to reach just conclusion, and so willing to sacrifice previously formed opinion as the present President of the United States"
 He weighs every argument which Is brought before him, and If by reason of the limpid character of his nature. which leads him tojspeak as he thinks. he gives instant expression to an opin- ion which subsequent facts show him to be erroneous, he changes as only a man can change who is an earnest seeker for the truth, with the sincerest desire to do right. He Is not a tyrant but he is a leader. He does believe in a strenuous life. He does believe in doing things. He believes that a man who is given brain and muscle is charged with the responsibility of making the most of them and of doing as much with both as possible for his fellow men. He represents as high a type as there Is in the country of en- ergetic American manhood. He sym pathizes with the laborer and the man of wealth both when they love the course protection and security of life liberty and property they enjoy.
 "No man ever sat in the presidential chair more anxious to avoid war or conflict with foreign nations than he His impulsiveness of manner and his oufckness of thought and speech CO.,
