GET POW
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 skill
fully selected food that exactly fits
the requirements of the body.
Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a
poor fire is not a good steam pro-
Queer.
From not knowing how to select
the right food to fit my needs, suf.
fered grievously for long time from
stomach troubles" writes lady from
a little town in Missouri.
1T seemed as if | would never be
able to find out the sort of food that
was best for me. Hardly anything
that | could eat would stay on my
stomach. Every attempt gave me
heartburn and filed my stomach with
gas, | got thinner and thinner until
l literally became a 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. | was surprised at the ease
with which | digested it, 1t proved
to 1e just what | needed. All my un
pleasant symptoms, the heartburn, the
inflated feeling which gave me sc
much pain disappeared. My weigh
gradually increased from SO to III
lbs, my figure rounded out, my
strength came back, and am nov
able to do my housework and enjo!
1t. The GrapeNuts food did it." Nam,

Friends are almost as scarce as UNI
brellas when they are needed.

Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in II pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
a 1907. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
tiers and figures "16 ozs." Demand De-
fiance and save much time and money
and the annoyance of the iron stick
ing. Defiance never sticks.

Nebraskan Injured in Denver.

DENVER, Colo,-Fred Shilling, a
stranger IN this city, who arrived here
a few days ago from Scotia, Neb,, was
nearly killed by a street car. Shilling
was on Welton street and stepped hur-
riedly to one side while in the center
of the thoroughfare in order to avoid
a street car. BY so doing, he placed
himself directly in front of a car com.
ing from the opposite direction. The
car struck him squarely and blow
upon the head rendered him uncon-
scious, He is badly bruised and in
ternal injuries may develop.

LIGHTING LORE.
AcETYLENE EXcELs AS AN ILLu.
MlNANT.
Gas for Lighting Formerly Confined to
Cities and Large Towns, now In
General Use In the Country.

The satisfactory lighting OF gubur-
ban and country homes requires that
the means used shall be convenient,
safe, economical and furnish a bril'
liant, penetrating, effulgent light.
Everybody admits that these are
not the characteristics of the candle
or kerosene lamp, which, formerly,
were the only feasible means OF pro-
ducing light for domestic use in the
rural districts.
For generations there was crying
need, yearning for something better,
which was not satisfied. A few years
ago deliverance came in the shape OF
the chemical compound, Calcium Car
bide, from which, by the simple ap'
plication Of water, the gas Acetylene
is derived. Acetylene meets all the
requirements fully and admirably and
is being generally used.
Common lime and carbon In the
form of coke or coal are the raw ma
terials which, fused in an intensely
heated furnace, make Calcium Car
bide, and there is no difficulty in OBJ
tanning 1t in any part of the country.
The machine into which the Cal
cium Carbide is fed and from which
the Acetylene Is distributed through
the building to be lighted, is but little
larger than a thirty-gallon milk can,
and Of the same general form. 1t is
easily and cheaply installed, either in
the cellar or in an out-building.
The light from burning Acetyleue
is exquisite, and lighting experts agree
that 1t surpasses all other known illu-
minants. 1t does not faint the air nor
strain the eyes and is not objection
able in any respect. Every up-to-date
rural residence should be equipped
with Acetylene light.

A NORFOLK MOTHER
HEARS OF SONS DEATH

NORFOLK-Today for the first time
since the INJURED at Sacramento, Mrs.
Charles Lodge of this city heard the
story of the killing of her son, John
Lodge, the former Norfolk man, later
a wealthy race horse owner, who was
shot without provocation on the race
track in the California city over week
ago. Charles Lodge and Sam Lodge
father and brother, have returned from
California, where they went to bury
the dead man. An intoxicated depu-
tized town marshal murdered John
Lodge because the officer believed
Lodge had applied an epithet to him
which he resented.

One of Nebraska's OId-Timers.

NORFOLK-"Uncle Bill Lamont,
said to have been the oldest among
Nebraska pioneers, is dead at Mo
brara from disability incident to old
age. His patent to land in Nebraska
bore the signature of President An
drew Jackson and he came west when
the country was filled with Indians
and antelope. Every business house
in Niobrara was closed during the fun
eral of the old settler and his remains
were laid to rest in Leau Qui Court
cemetery, near that place. During his
last illness Lamont was cared for by
citizens of the city.

THOUSANDS OF LIVES SAVED
BY Mothers Medicine Chest" and
Patent Prescriptions.


Commenting on attacks made by
certain eastern publications on some
of the best known and most valuable
Of the worlds proprietary medicines,
the Committee on Legislation of the
Proprietary Association says:
"All through the country districts,
in every state of the union, you will
find in the farm houses the old family
remedies, sometimes called patent
medicines many of which have been
in use in the same household for gen.
erations. Among such people the old
fashioned proprietary medicine, al
ways at hand with full printed in
structions for use, is one of the neces-
stiles Of life.
ITO families in the country many
miles from doctor such remedies are
invaluable. Mothers medicine chest
has saved many life and met many
n threatening sickness at the TIRES
hold and turned 1t out of doors. So
far from constituting self-prescription,
as Is often pretended, acquaintance
with a patent medicine often obvi-
ates the necessity of such a step; for
here is a prescription already made
up, the effect of which is we'll known.
One of the greatest advantages Of
such medicine is that it's constant for
mula gives it the character of single
drug, SO far as uniformity Of result is
concerned, and the people who use it
know from experience just what they
can count on-which is more than can
be said Of many physicians prescrip-
tions frequently obtained at q far
greater cost and trouble"

Black Sea Once Inland Lake.

The Black Sea, according TO chron-
icles mentioned by Strabo and others,
was once an inland lake, connected
with the Caspian, till some catastro-
phe forced its outlet into the basin Of
the Mediterranean, cutting off COM
munication with its eastern sister
lake, which, indeed, has gradually
shrunk, ever since, but, for awhile
may have flooded it's shore lands far
and near.

See Virtue in Silver Rings.

Silver rings are worn by laborers In
certain European countries, the own
ers being firmly convinced that such
ring is a sure protection against fits.
This idea has probably arisen from the
fact that mercury, commonly called
quicksilver, was formerly used as a
remedy for epilepsy, and by an erro-
neous process of reasoning silver has
been credited with similar virtues.
