FROM THE SAME BOX
Where the Foods Come From.

Look here waiter, honest now, don't
you dip every one Of these faxed break
fast foods out Of the same box?'' We'll,
yes, boss, we duz, all 'cept Grape Nuts,
cause that don't look like the others and
people know 'zackly what Grape-Nuts
looks like. But there's bout a dozen diff
eferent ones named on the Nill of fare and
they are all thin rolled fakes so it don't
make any difference which one a man
calls for we just take out the order from
enc box"
This talk LED to an investigation. Doz-
ems Of factories sprung up about three
years ago making various kinds of
breakfast foods, seeking to take the bust
ness Of the original prepared breakfast
fOOd-Grape- Nuts. These concerns af-
ter a precarious existence, nearly all
failed, leaving thousands of boxes of
their foods in mills and warehouses.
These were in several instances bought
up for a song by spectators and sold
out to grOcers and hotels for little OF
nothing. The process of working off
this old stock has been slow. One will
see the names on menus of faxed foods
that went out Of business a year and
a half or two years ago In few cases
where the abandoned factories have been
bought up, there is an effort to resusci-
tate the defunct, and by copying the

the public has been educated to the fact
that all these thin faxed foods are sim

dried out and packed. They are not
prepared like Grape Nuts. in which the
thorough baking and other operations
which turn the starch part of the wheat
and barley into sugar, occupy many
hours and result In q food so digestlble

COMMON-SENSE TALK

OURSELVES.
Our reputation and work are not
of mushroom growth, nor is it the
experience of one man. Our expe-
rience tells US what to do, and so
we do not have to experiment.
VARICOCELE.
Cured by absorption; no pain.
The enlarged veins are due to
mumps, bicycle riding, disease. etc.
In time it weakens a man mentally
as well as physically. We can cure
you for life.
PRIVATE DISEASES.
We cure all diseases of a private
nature about which most people
dislike to consult their family doc
tor, such as discharges, drains,
eruptiOns and all contracted
troubles. We cure them quickly,
safely and surely. Absolute secrecy
assured.
RHEUMATISM.
Why continue to suffer from
rheumatism when you can get
we'll? It certainly is no pleasure
to have those aching pains and
swollen joints. By our plan of
treatment we do not only relieve
you but cure you so you won't be

BLOOD DISEASES

Besides blood poison. our treat
ment thoroughly eradicates all
poisons of any scrofHlous or can
cerous nature, enlarged glands,
whether hard or suppurating, thus
putting a stop to the wasting of
tissue and thoroughly cleansing the
blood.
KIDNEYS AND BLADDER.
The kidneys are the most i'm
portant organs in the body in the
elimination of waste material; in
fact, they may be called the filters
of the system. The blood rushes
through the organs at the rate of
fifty gallons per hour. When these
organs exercise their functions they
filter the impurities of the body
which are not eliminated by the
skin and bowels. If they fail to
act properly and promptly, the re-
suit is a variety of diseases, not
only of the kidneys themselves but
Of every other organ. Many cases
of Bright's disease could be avoid
ed by attending to these troubles
in time.

neutritis or rheumatism of the nerves
His right side is affected to such an ex-
tent that it is impossible to raise his arm
above his waist, and it is supposed to be
caused from overwork. AS long as it can
be confined to his right side and kept
above his waist it IS not considered very

Suggested Arbitration on Certain of
the MootcI Questions

Portsmouth. y. H. August 20.-It
can now be authoritatively stated that
the feature of the proposition of Presi-
dent Roosevelt communicated through
Baron Rosen to Mr.. Wittc and tsns-
mlttad bg the latter 10 Emperor Nicho-
las was based upon the principle of
erbitration. Whether the proposal
contemplates arbitration of all the arti-
eles upon which the plenipotentiaries
have failed to agree, or upon the aues-
ton of indemnity, cannot be stated
with positiveness, bat it Is more tnan
probable that it relates only to in
demnity or to indemnity and the ces-
sion of the island of Sakhalin. Neither
is it possible TO say whether the presi-
dent has yet made Il similar PROPOSE
ton to Japan. The customary diplo-
matte proceedings in such case would
be to submit the proposal sinultane-
Cusly to both countries, but there
might be an advantage III securing the
adherence of one before submitting it
to the other.

of The Hague peace conference. the
suggestion Of arbitration, which will
necessarily Immediately command the
sympathy of the public opinion Of the
world will be particularly hard to re-
Ject If he agrees, Japan. If she has
not already done so. would be all the
more bound to submit her claim TO the
decision of an impartial arbitrator. Ac-
ceptance by both sides would involve
great extension of the principle OF
arbitration, as nations have heretofore
declined to arbitrate questions involv-
ing their ''honor and dignity" Both
Mr.. Takahira and Mr.. Witte in the
earlier stages of the conference alb
solutely rejected the idea of arbitra-
ton, and only yesterday both re-
dterated their disbelief in such
solution. 1t was noticed, however,
that Mr.. Whites opinion was not ex-
pressed as strongly as it was last
