GET POWER.
The Supply Comes from Food.

If we get power from food, why not
strive to get all the power we can. That
is only possible by use of sllillfully Sc
lected food that exactly fits the re-
quirements of the body.
Poor fuel makes a poor fire, and a
poor fire is not good steam producer.
From not knowing how to select
the right food to fit my needs, l suf-
fered grievously for long time from
stomach troubles" writes a lady from
a little town in Missouri.
1t seemed as if l would never be-
able to find out the sort of food that
was hest for me. Hardly anything
that I could eat would stay on my
stomach. Every attempt gave me-
heartburn and filled my stomach with
gas. l got thinner and thinner, until
literally became living skeleton.
and in time was compelled to keep to-
my bed.
"A few months ago was persuaded
to try Grape-Nuts food, and it had
such good effect from the very begin
ming that have kept up its use ever
since. l was surprised at the ease
with which l digested it. 1t proved.
to be just what l needed. All my
unpleasant symptoms, the heartburn,
the inflated feeling which gave me So
much pain disappeared. My weight
gradually increased from 9S to 116-
lbs, my figure rounded out, my
strength came back and am now able
to do my houseworlr and enjoy it. The.
Grape Nuts food did it." Name given
by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich
A ten days trial will show anyone
some facts about food.

ARE ACCUSED OF FRAUD.
officers of the Western Life Indemnity
Co. Are Charged with Misappropri-
alton of the Funds of the Concern.

Chicago Sept. 2O-Charges of fraud,
misapplication of trust funds and at
tempts to transfer assets to another
concern are made in suit for a re-
ceiver and an accounting, filed yester-
day against present and former Of
ioials of the Western Life Indemnity
Co., an assessment insurance COM
pany. r. I. Rosenfeld and w. Fl. Gray,

association, are prominently mention
ed in the bill in connection with al

tion for the issuance of restraining

proxies from thousands of members
and thus controlled the directors. BY
securing this control, it is alleged,
Gray had passed resolution voting
him the right by contract, to draw one

sued. This was done in secret, and
although the complaining policy hold
ers recently learned of it they were
refused information by Rosenfeld,
Moulton. Gray and others. Besides
these many thousands of dollars alleg-
ed to have been improperly taken, it
is declared, Gray and his associates
by other fraudulent means took many
other thousands of dollars from the
concern without the knowledge of the
policy holders.

Field, Jesse B. Strobe and Addison S.

the insurance company, Rosenfeld and
Gray are George M. Moulton, John A.
Crawford, L. NJ. Martin, C. T. Drake,

in 1884, and has more than $20,0O0,00
in policies outstanding.

Buzzards and vultures can scent
their food at a distance of 40 miles.
Silk is produced by more than 200
insects. though very few of these are
of any practical value to mankind
All carnivorous animals lap up wa

The elephant has so delicate sense
OF smell that it can scent a human

Horses in their wild state live to the
age of SO normally, being still fairly
fresh and hearty at that age in the
desert.
The largest insect known to ento-

called the Erebus strix, which ex-
pands its wings from II inches to 1S
inches.
There are at least 112 species OF
California poppies (EschschoLzia), ac-

News FROM
ONO Towns


Cincinnati, Sept. 2O.-A knife duel
in which both participants, Albert An
derson, New York dentist registered
at the Stag hotel, and Ike Gottlieb, a
Cincinnati bookmaker, were probably
fatally wounded, took place in front of
the Stag hotel, on Vine street, in the
heart of the city, yesterday morning.
Anderson, who had been drinking,
walked up to a hack in which Gottlieb
was sitting and attempted to pull him
out. Gottlieb resented the familiarity
and in a few minutes both were en-
gagged in a terrific fight on the side
walk. Bleeding from numerous cuts,
they continued to hack away at each
other, until finally Anderson dropped
to the sidewalk exhausted and weak
from loss of blood. Before the police
arrived Gottlieb, too, fell exhausted
and both were taken to the hospital.

entered his office Tuesday he was sur
prised to see the window Immediately
adjoining his desk open. A few min

AN ALLEGED LAND GRAB.
Company Has Appropriated Land
Worth 100000.

Chicago, Sept. 2O.-Action to re-
claim S4,0OO,0O0 worth of land which
city officials assert has been appro-
priated by the Illinois Steel Co. at the
mouth of the Calumet river, was
started yesterday by Commissioner of
Public Works Patterson. States At
torney Healy and Corporation Counsel
Lewis were asked by Commissioner
Patterson to proceed in the courts to
recover 200 acres of submerged land
which it is alleged the steel corpora
ton has added to its property in the
past four years by encroaching upon
Lake Michigan and the Calumet river.
The claim is made that the title to the
lands legally rests in the name of the
people of the state of Illinois.
With the development of the plans
for legal action upon the part of the
state and the city came the suspension
of Richard O'Sullivan Burke, who for
five years has been the city's harbor
engineer. Commissioner Patterson
charges Burke with neglect of duty
and inefficiency." Burke is accused of
having failed to inform the city ofic-
ials regarding the encroachments of
the steel corporation, and of having
been unfamiliar with the situation, al
though it was clearly within his duties.

Mexican Quarantine Theory.

CITY OF MEXICO. July 24.-The health authorities say there will be no quarantine against New Orleans should in turn out that yellow fever exists in that city. The sanitary inspection of arriving passengers from infected ports is strict and suspected cases are isolated. Merchandise from ports where yellow fever exists is not de- tained. The theory on which the Mex ican sanitary authorities deal with vel low fever is that it is only communi- cated by a species of mosquito and consequently quarantine precautions are unreasonable.
