GREAT CHANGE
From Change In Food.

The brain depends much more on
the stomach than we are apt to sup
pose until we take thought in the mat
ter. Feed the stomach on proper food
easy to digest and containing the
proper amount of phosphates and the
healthy brain will respond to all de-
mands. A notable housewife in Buff
falo writes:
THE doctor diagnosed my trouble
as a nervous affection Of the stom.
ach' l was actually so nervous that
could not sit still for five minutes
to read the newspaper. and to attend
to my household duties was simply
impossible. l doctored all the time
with remedies. but medicine did NJ
good.
my physician put me on all sorts
of diet. and I tried many kinds OF
cereal foods. but none of them agreed
with me. was almost discouraged.

There's a reason.
Now why was this great change
made in this woman?
The stomach and the brain had not
been supplied with the right kind Of
food to rebuild and strengthen the
nerve centers in these organs. 1t is
absolute folly to try to do this with
medicine. There is but one sure way
and that is to quit the old food that
has failed and take on Grape-Nuts
food which Is more than half digested

rich in the phosphate Of potash con.

CATCH THIEVES
coIona Protective Association
Holds Annual Meeting at
Coal Valley.
MEMBERS IN TWO COUNTIES
Has Been Terror TO Purloiners OF
Horsefesh for Thirty Years
Forty-Five Members.

The annual meeting of the Colona
Protective society was held in Coal
Valley a few days ago. This society
was first organized in 1874. The pur-
pose OF the society is the protection OF
the community from horse thieves.
The present membership of the so
ciety is 40. While the name would i'm
ply that it is a Henry county organiza-
ton. such is not the case. About one
half the membership is from that coun-
" and the remainder is from this coun-
Ity. All work tdeether very harmoni-
ously and the members, when called
on, respond promptly. The officers
are a president, secretary and four as
sistant secretaries. The society is di-
vided into four sections. each under
the direction of an assistant secretary
who has list of men under his com
mand. These men are paired, and
when notified two men go together.
The routes these men have to travel
is kept a secret until the time for their
departure, so that no member of the
society knows previous to his depart
ure on his man hunt who is his mate
Or what route he will travel over.
There are similar organizations at
Orion and in Rural township. The
matter of bringing these organizations
in closer touch was brought up at the
meeting and the secretary of the so
ciety was instructed to correspond
with the officers of those societies.
VIII Use Telephone.
The object in view is to make such
a combination that a description of any
stolen property could be sent 10 the
officers and members of the three asSo-
cations by means of the telephone
lines through the country thus cover
ing a radius of several miles. There
would be no expense attached to this,
nothing but the trouble of calling up
the parties by telephone. There seems
to be no good reason why these so
cieties should not have a hundred
members each According to tho
rules of the society the expense of the
individual called is TO be paid by him
self the first day and after that tins
by the society.
The officers of the society are: Pres
ident. James Clegg; secretary, T. J
Murphy; first assistant, F. NJ. Dewitt;
second assistant, ?. Mckee; third as
sistant, John Hunt; fourth assistant
b. F. Washburn; treasurer, NJ. G. Bed
