Measure and increased measure OF eff

me from adopting Grape-Nuts 1000 as

"For several years i was much dis

eggs. seemed to turn sour and failed
to digest After dinner the headache
and other symptoms following the
breakfast would wear away, only to
return, however, next morning.
Having heard of Grape-Nuts food,

and made my breakfasts of Grape
Nuts. cream, toast and Postum. The
result was surprising in improved
health and total absence of the dis
tress that had, for so long time, fol-
lowed the morning meal. My diges-
ton became once more satisfactory,
the headaches ceased, and the old feel
ing of energy returned. Since that
time, four years ago, i have always had

Europe, principally Paris and Berlin,
announce that they will leave Berlin
next Saturday morning, July 1, and
that the first stage of their journey

They expect to reach London, England,

erpool, to take pa ssage home on the

to arrive in this city about August S

meet Mrs. John B. Simmons and niece,
Miss Alice Nancy. who went abroad
at the same time as the Scheelers, at
Rotterdam, Holland and Miss Nancy
will accompany the latter home when
they come. Mrs. Simmons may re-

are undecided as yet.

operation. The operation itself was
successful, but during the following
night he was seized with a violent
fit of hiccoughing that tore the
stitching in the stomach and finally
resulted in death at about $50 in
the morning.
Mr.. Davenport in spite of poor
health was one of the most enter
prising business men OF the city. He
located here permanently five years
ago coming here from the Arkansas
Valley. Since his arrival in Greeley
he had built scores of houses neat
and substantial which he sold upon
easy payments and many through his
methods are today enjoying comfort
able homes Of their own.
His energies were perhaps even
more identified with the development
of the Arkansas valley than with
Greeley. He came to Sugar City in
the employ of the National Beet
Sugar company and was in that town
during the boom days of 1900. He
helped materially in making that
town what it was, and founded the
Sugar City Herald. Previous to that
time he had founded the Rocky Ford
Tribune and Fowler Tribune.
Mr.. Davenport was born in Tomp-
kins county, New York, January 26,
1858, his parents being MIR. and Mrs.
Thomas Davenport. now residents OF
the Delta, near Greeley. In 1867 the
family moved to Iowa where they
lived for a number of years and final
ly in August of 1873 came to Greeley,
where the elder Mrs. Davenport died.
George Z. remained here a couple of
wears and then returned to Iowa
where on April s, 1880 he was mar
ried to Miss Maggie Hendrix, of Des
Moines, Iowa.
MIR. Davenport received his school,
ing in the real estate business with
the American Investment company
which had large interests In Iowa
and Nebraska. The main office Of
the company was in New York, with
branch office at Emmettsburg, Iowa.
There MIR. Davenport spent one year
and was then given charge OF the
company's business in Nebraska,
with headquarters at Crawford, Ne
brska.
There survive deceased, his wife
and his father. The funeral was
held from the Methodist church Sun
day afternoon.
