OLD SOLDIERS TEARS
WERE SHED IN VAIN

With the tears In her eyes and speak
Ing in low and trembling voice Mrs.
Mary kelby took the stand in the
United States Branch of the Police
Court this morning and said she was
afraid OF John P. ONein and wanted
the cour, TO restrain him from threat
ening her.
She alleged that O'Neil had at vari-
Gus different times threatened to kill
her. She said he also cursed her and
generally kept her in state OF terror
Myrtle E. Kelby. who lived with Mrs
Kelby also testified that O.Neill was
always threatening aiid raising a dis
turbance in the nefghborhood.
O'Neill next took the stand and denied
all OF the charges made against him.
He declared he had not threatened any
one in any way but in a jest and would
not touch a hair Of the woman's head
With tears in his eyes O'Neill said he
was an old soldier and had fought in
the war and that it stood to reason that
no soldier who had faithfully fought for
his country would strike or threaten a
woman
Judge Scott seemed 10 see things diff
ferently from the defendant and or
dered that he put UP 500 bond to keep
the peace.

A WORKING BRAIN
Can Be Made Successful on Right Food.

A busy man in one OF Americas Iarg-
est watch factories tells how by change
of food he gained clear brain and
steady nerves and averted mental and
physical breakdown. He says:
II was accustomed all nay life to the
ordinary diet of the average table.
thought. that meat, potatoes, and other
vegetables and fruit were necessary, and
that tea, coffee and pastry in moderate
quantities were not injurious.
But i found. in course of time, that
my dietary was affecting my health seri-
ously. For four years i continued to run
down. In time nv nerves became seri-
ousIy affected, they seemed constantly
keyed up TO the highest tension, and
became subject TO the most violent bill
Gus attacks which used 10 leave me in a
weak and nervous condition for several
days. The climax seemed TO have been
reached few years ago, when ] found
myself about as near physical wreck
as a man could well be- and live Physi-
clans. toDics and other medicines, visits
TO the country, etc, etc, were of no
avail
'In sheer desneration I concluded. a
few months ago. to see what effect a diet
OF Ora pe-NGts food would have. l had
often heard Of II, but had little hope it
would help me. at once cut out all the
heavy dishes with the tea and coffee
that had always used and began 10 eat
Grape-Nuts with cream and a pinch Of
salt. Afterward. / added fruit. with oc-
casionaliy an egg beaten up In milk, and
entire wheat bread. This has been prac-
t.eally my diet for more than two
months.
II fornd that with the rev diet I
gained complete relief almost immedi-
ately from all the distress that used TO
follow every meal. my bilious condition
was speedily regulated and cured. my
nerves have grown healthy and steady
in short my run down constitution has
been reconstructed and built up. As TO
the effect upon my mental powers
have recently been placed in a responsi-
bic position In our establishment where
complete concentration of mind is re-
uuired TO deal with complicated records
and reports, and that / have been en-
abled 10 keep my accounts absolutely
correct, which my numerous predeces-
sors uniformly failed to do
II think these things speak volumes in
favor of Grape-Nuts food as nerve and
brain builder. ] ascrtbe all my improve
n1ent. mental and physical the fact
that ] am possessed of steadier nerves a
clearer brain. a fine appetite. and have
gained healthily in weight, TO the cut
ting out of heavy food and the svs-
tematic use of Grape-Nuts food" Name
