More than 10000 applications have
been made to the Carnegie Hero Fund
Commission. The fund, started by
Carnegie to provide regards of money
and medals for acts of heroism, was
created less than year ago. 1t j.

safely be stated that for one instance

THE SIMPLE LIFE.
Ways That Are Pleasant and Paths
That Are Peace.

1t is the simple life that gives
length of days, serenity of mind and
body and tranquility Of soul
Simple hopes and ambitions, bound
ed by the desire To do good to ones
reighbors, simple pleasures, habits,
food and drink.
Men die long before their time be-
cause they try to crowd too much into
their experiences-they climb too
high and fall too hard. a wise woman
writes of the good that a simple diet
has done her:
Il have been using Grape-Nu's for
about six months began rather spar
ingly, until ! acquired such liking

tirely for my diet. eating nothing else
whatever, but GrapeNuts for break

much better and have more strength

When | began the use OF Grape

any work | weighed only 10S pounds
Nothing that ! ate did me any good.
| was going down hill rapidly, was
nervous and miserable. with no ambi-
ton for anything. My condition i'm
proved rapidly after | began TO eat
Grape-Nuts food. II made me feel
like new woman; my muscles got
solid. my figure rounded out, my
weight increased to 1876 pounds in a
few weeks. my nerves grew steady
and my mind better and clearer My
friends tell me they haven't seen me
look so well for years.
Il consider Grape-Nuts the best
food on the market and shall never go
back to meats and white bread again"

An important change is quietly but
irrcsistibly coming about in the indus
trial situation in this country. For
years the tendency of ambitious young
men has been from the farms TO the
cities. lured by the highe" wages and
greater opportunities. The steady mi
grafton has resulted in decided effect
both upon city wages and upon the
vaiue of farm products. Wages are ut
a standstill; farm products are stead
lily rising in value. The meaning of AL
this is that laws above luman control
are bound to turn the tide of migra-
ton back from the cities TO the farms

Imitation Tides in Great Lakes.

The actual tides of lake are exces.
sively small Nevertheless. noticeable
alterations OF level often occur, which
we're long regarded as mysterious.
Recent observations in Switzerland
make it certain that in these oscilla-
tons are due TO differences in air
pressure at different points on the
lake If the lake is large enough for
the barometer TO be high at one end
while there is still low pressure area
over the other, water will be forced
toward the place where the pressure
H. lower and an oscillation of level
will result,

and Mrs. Luce and their -four children
were all present when the final sum

Though descended from the best
New England and southern stock, Cy-
rus G.. Luce was a product of the stern
school of pioneer life in the early
days Of the west, and throughout his
long and active career he showed the
beneficial effects of his early training.
In the many public Offices he was
called upon by the people of his coun-
~ and state TO fill he was never
found wanting, but left behind him in
each a record OF service well and fear
lessly performed. When he retired
from public life some years ago II was
with the regard and high esteem of
the entire state, and to the end of his
life he retained--as he merited-theso
feelings of confidence and respect.
Ex-Governor Luce was born in
Windsor, o., July 2, 1924, afterwards
lived in Ontario. Ind. Later he pur-
chased a tract of new land in the
township of Gilead. Branch Co, Mich,

soon after his marriage to Miss Julia
\. Dickinson in August. lS49 Here
they lived until the death of Mrs. Luce
in 1882, their union being blessed by
the birth of five children. During this
period Mr.. Luce took deep interest
in public affairs and in the success of
the Republican party and he was
