A crew of twenty-five Sioux Indians,

which extends through a large island
on the Missouri river opposite the
town of Chamberlain. Thee Indians
are from the Crow Greek agency. and
at the suggestion of Major II. ID.
Chamberlain. United States Indian
agent at Crow Creek, the contractors
were induced TO give them "A trial.
The result is proving very s%atisfac-
tory. The Indians nave contracted TO.
several sections of the work of grading,
and under the immediate supervision
of join Van Patter, an agency en-
ploye, they are making good progress
with their contract.
AT another point on the railroad eX-
tension, an Indian named Louis Loud
en- has a contract for grading. He has
the utmost confidence of his brethren,
as is attested by the fact that. instead
of employing white graders, he secured
the services of a number of Sioux war
riors from Crow Creek and Lower

"Eve, since boyhood ! have been

q few years ago, afflicted with ailments
Of the stomach. and kidneys, which In

"At last ! took the advice Of friends
and began to eat Grape-Nuts instead OF
the heavy meats, etc, that had consti-
tuted my former diet.
II found that l was at n benefited
by the change. that l was soon relieved
from the heartburn and the indiges-
ton that used to follow my meals,
that the pains in my back from my
kidney affection had ceased, showing
that those organs had been healed, and
that my nerves, which used to be I'M
steady. and my brain, which was slow
and lethargic from a heavy diet Of
meats and greasy foods, had, not in a
moment, but gradually, and none the
less surely. been restored to normal
efficiency. Now every nerve is steady
and my brain and thinking faculties
are quicker and more acute than for
years past.
