HONEST CONFESSION. A Doctors Talk o3 Food.

There gre no fairer set of men on earth than the doctors, and when they find thev have been in error they are usually apt to make honest and manly confession of thc fact.
 A case in point is that of an eminent practitioner, one of the good old school, who lives in Texas. His plain, unvar- nished tale needs no dressing up:
 'I had always had an intense preju dice, which l can now see was unwar- rantabIe and unreasonable, against all muchly advertised foods. Hence, I never read a line of the many ads of Grape-Nuts, nor tested the food till last winter
 While in Corpus Christi for my health, and visiting my youngest son. who has four of the ruddiest, healthiest little boys I ever saw, I ate my first dish of Grape-Nuts food for supper with my little grandsons. I became exceedingly fond of it and have eaten a package of it every week since, and find it a delicious, refreshing and strengthening food, leaving no i'll eff fects whatever, causing no. erucations (with which I was formerly much trou- bIed) no sense of fitness, nausea, nor distress of stomach in any way.
 Inere IS no other IOOd that agrees with me well, or sits as lightly or pleasantly upon my stomach as this does. I am stronger and more active since l began the use of Grape Nuts than 1 have been for 10 years, and am no longer troubled with nausea and in- digestion" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.
 There's a reason.

THE LAW DAY COURT
Other Matters Crowded It Together
 Into a Brief Session.

So much of the time of the district court yesterday was occupied by the Lucero murder trial that not much could be devoted to the regular law day business. Several matters were how ever disposed of. Tie case of the ter ritory against H. O. Finch accused Of obtaining money under false pretenses was continued until May l. The trial of the case of the Farmers and Merch- ants Trading company against l.. C. Harden was set for the same date. That was also the time fixed for the trial of the suit of John c. Harden against Prosper P. Parker.
 In the case of Thomas M'Grath against Carrol Rawlings and others the plaintiff was given judgment.
 The case of the territory against P. K. Hickey against whom an indict- ment had been found for embezzlement was set for May 2. The case of M. West against Hansen and others was restored to the docket and immediately tried, taking about five minutes to reach a determination. In this case, an order had been made continuing it for the term. That order was vacated and the case went to trial resulting in | a judgment for the plaintiff
 There was an order for the payment of the witnesses in the Lucero case it having been represented to the court that most if not all of them were poor and unable to bear the expense of their attendance upon tke court The order provided for the rayment of their ac- tual expenses. T. was finally decided to allow each SJ.25 a day during the period of their attendance upon the | grand iI1rV and the trial,

Hills for Apple Orcha rds.


Where there are hills and clay soil
the conditions are suitable for the
raising Of apples. In the southern
part Of Illinois and Indiana the land
is admirably adapted to the raising OF
apples, and as yet is but little used
for that purpose. The apple tree
seems to want air drainage. The
drainage in the soil 10 better on the
hills than in the valleys, and this is
an advantage that the apple tree ap.
preciates. There is difference III
trees as to the amount Of air that
must come to their roots to permit
item to grow, as is evident in the fact
that some trees will die II their roots
are in water, while others grow best
In swamps where the water covers
tleir roots at all times. The apple
tree is never a swamp loving tree. 1t
prefers the dry land. where its roots
can get air as well as water.-St.

Sugar and Tobacco.

The proposal being made to secure
the reduction of the duty on Philippine
sugar and tobacco promises to bring
on another fight similar to the sugar
war over Cuban reciprocity. 1t Is pro-
posed now to lower the tariff on sugar
and tobacco coming from the Philip
pines 25 per cent, although it is I'M
derstood that Secretary Taft proposes
to continue fight from session to SEES
sion Of Congress until free Philippine
sugar and tobacco are secured. In
this connection 1t Is interesting to
know the great and varied develop
ment which Is going on in beet sugar
affairs. In fact. strong argument
which the beet sugar people advance
why Philippine sugar production
should not be unduly stimulated is
that IL the beet sugar industry is CIV
en- a reasonable period. say Of ten
years, the industry will be upon such
a basis where 1t can stand alone. No
less an authority than Secretary VIII
son himself Is credited with this be-
lief and the statement that it will be
possible to produce beet sugar In this
country at = cents a pound.
