FOOD IN SERMONS. Feed the Dominic Right and the Ser mons are Brilliant.

4 conscientious, hard working and eminently successful clergyman writes: "I am glad to bear testimony to the pleasure and increased measure of eff ciency and health that have come to me, from adopting Grape-Nuts as one of my articles of diet.
 "For several years I was much dis tressed during the early part of each day by indigestion. My breakfast, us- uaIly consisting of oatmeal, milk and eggs, seemed to turn sour and failed to digest After dinner the headache and other symptoms following the breakfast would wear away. only to return, however, next morning.
 Having heard of Grape-Nuts food, finally concluded to give a fair trial. quit the use of oatmeal and eggs, and made my breakfasts of Grape-Nuts, cream. toast and Postum. The result was surprising in improved health and total absence of the distress that had, for so long a time, followed the morn ing meal. My digestion became once more satisfactory, the headaches ceas5 ed, and the old feeling of energy re- turned Since that time, four years ago. I have always had Grape-Nuts food on my breakfast table
 "I was delighted to find also that whereas before I began to use Grape Nuts food I was quite nervous and be- came easily worried in the work of pre- pairing sermons and in study mark ed improvement in this respect re- suited from the change iE my diet. l am convinced that Grapefruit food produced this result and helped me to a sturdy condition of mental and phy- sical strength.

Adds Its Endorsement to the Priority
 Suits.

The council of the Water Jscrs' as sociation held an all day meeting yes terday. Much was accomplished in the way of education of those mem bers who had not been present at meetings of the board of governors or committee of sixteen, or who had not closely read the daily papers. But the sum total of official action was the en- dorsement of the plan for acquiring the north side canals and the pushing of the priority water right suit. in sim liar manner to the endorsement given by the board Of governors and the committee of sixteen The forenoon session was devoted mainly to a pre- sentation to the council Fy President Fowler, of the same subject matter presented to the other organizations named and the reading of the cor respondence which was printed in The Republican a week ago.
 In the afternoon Governor Kibbey. attorney for the association, was pres ent. There was read to the council the full text of the letter prepared by him al the instance Of the board of governors, to be forwarded to the sec retary of the interior defining the boards interpretation of the proposed plan in detail. and it's attitude in va
 
 letter was endorsed by the council.
 The next item was the presentation of the following resolution: Resolved, That it is the sense of the council of the Salt River Valley Water Users association. that the suit of Hurley versus Abf ott now pending in the dis trict court of Maricopa county, hav- ing for it's purpose the ascertainment and establishment by judicial decree of that court, the various claims to the right O use water in the valley for ir- rigatiOn, should be promptly pressed to d conclusion and to that end the stockholders of the association are urged to enter their appearance to said suit and otherwise use their endeaV- ors to advance it to its conclusion"
 The motion was the text which the the greater part of the afternoon was spent in speaking to. It involved many phases but the only difference of opinion seemed to be the Oli ques- ton of the pIoprieN of proceeding with the suit while a committee of sixteen appointed to devise a -stipula- finished it's work After repkated ex- planation by various speakers it was finally made clear that there is no, interference. Any stipulation that the committee may be able to make can have no sta anding in the settlement of the suit until the parties to the stip- ulation have first become parties to the suit either by voluntary or involun- tary answer. It was shown that the only difference between vol

untary answer and being brought into court by process is that in the former instance it is cheaper. the position in court there after being the same, and that if a stipulation is made il can then become effective. After all this debate which was good natured but vigorous and had the effect of clearing the minds of some the motion was put and carried with a single dissenting voice.
 Every branch of the association has now expressed itself as favorable to the hastening of the suit and the heXt thing in order is for all to make an swer at the earliest possible day with out waiting to be legally summoned in which event il will cost them hard earned money that it is needless to spend. beside making more work for everybody.

Too Busy to Bother About Sons En-

New York, March 25.-'All I know

cars is that he has four-not five
Four are quite enough" said Mrs.
Hetty Green. speaking of the tales of
Col. F. H. Green's sudden and fervid
interest in automobiling.
Colonel Green's enthusiasm for the
sport has led him away from the
peaceful pursuits of the autoist-for-
pleasure-onIy. Instead of the shaded
country lanes and long smooth strips
of asphalt roads, he wants now the
nervous tension of racing, and has
arranged to enter his cars wherever
there are contests.
Mrs. Green would say little concern
ing the matter. ST don't know what
my sons plans are" she said, slowly.
"And 1 am entirely too busy moving
and attending to my own business to

The Simmons Willitts-S medley-
dent published in Fridays paper, re-
wives the familiar saying that "all
tracks lead to or from Topeka" When
you read of a bank robbery, a killing
fest, a bunco incident or anything else
worthy of a top head, you may rest as
sured that an investigation will show
that either the victims or the victimiz-
ers have been in Topeka at some time
during their careers. Topeka was not
on the map when David went out and
swatted Goliath on the COCO with a
cobblestone. Had it been at that time
the report of the Goliath incident in the
Dead Sea Delineator would have closed
with these words: Dave is a Topeka
boy, and received his education at
Washburn college"
Topeka is an incubator for celebrities.
1t is also an incubator for suckers, and
while some of its celebrities are out OPP
Grating on strangers, other celebrities
are in Topeka operating on the local
suckers. Therefore the name of Topeka
is kept ever before the public There
are 120 cities in the United States which
boast a larger population than Topeka,
but when it comes to national reputa-
ton, the village on the Kaw has them
all sidetracked.
Wandering back to the Simmons VIII
itts-Smedley affair:
The lady who has broken into the pa
pers for the steenth time was not res
ident of Topeka proper, but she lived in
Granville, a suburb Therefore Topeka
feels free to claim her as one of it's
celebrities. In 1902 the attention of the
public was called to a girl student of
Lindsborg who was breaking hearts for
pastime. After she had driven one man
to the ragged edge of suicide and mar
ried another, it was discovered that she
had left a husband and child at Grant

CATS PARTY IN DINING ROOM.
'sAIice Roosevelt at Head of Table
prince Henry at Foot.

Newcastle, Pa, March 25.-The third
anniversary party for "Alice RoOSe-
Welt" Mrs. Beverly H. Hitchcocks an
CORA cat was confined to the immedi-
mistress. Notwithstanding the calling
in of the two dozen or more invitations
sent out among neighbors and friends
who have feline favoriteS, the event
was one of Importance in the Hitch
cock household. Dinner was served to
the Tables in the dining room at p.
m. Alice Roosevelt and "Pince Hen
ry'' had the places of honor at the head
and foot of the spread, at which the
eight cats of the family gathered.
Each kitty had a pretty blue stock or
collar around its neck, and a souvenir
was laid at each place. Alice and
Prince Henry were presented with fan
cy baskets to sleep in, an alcOve in
the sitting room being fitted up for
them and the other kitties. A large
Alice" fern and an umbrella plant
We're the decorations added in this room
in honor of the event.
Jealous ones in the social set, it is
said, spoke lightly of the party, assert
ing that had the invitations not been
recalled, the cats of the Hitchcock
household would have partaken of the
birthday spread alone; but Mrs. Hitch
cock has favorable replies from her
friends who express regret that illness
caused the changing OF her plans. She
has also received letters from nine diff
ferent states since the announcement of
the oncoming cat function These let
tiers, numbering upward of a hundred,
are from cat fanciers and women hav-
ing feline pets. She prizes the collec-
ton highly.
At first Mr.. Hitchcock. who is a con-
servative business man, did not take
kindly to the widespread publicity Civ
en- to his name. but he has nothing to
say now because of the delight Mrs.
Hitchcock takes in her pets.
A dog surprise party was given at
the house of J. S. Westlake, one of Mr..
Hitehcocks neighbors, one day last
week 1t was the birthday of Mr.
WestIake, and many of his friends
came in to spend the evening. Each
couple brought toy china dog with
them, and these were set at the places
on the table
Mr.. and Mrs. Westlake were cha
grined the day following, when it was
published locally that a real dog party
had been given and that it was run
on the proposed cat party of their
neighbors, the Hitchcocks- Explanations
have since been made, and it develops
that the dog party project was the plan
of several young men friends who
wanted to have some fun, no matter at
whose expense.

that a number will not return next fall.

many of the students went home for a

All from Topeka.

Two pictures of this fascinating dame
were unearthed, one the picture of a
scared looking country girl, and the
other of a long necked girl with a dis
organized rat showing through her
extravaganza of pompadour. She didn't
look much like girl number one, but she
was alleged to be the same She was
by no means beautiful, but it seemed
that because she was from the vicinity
of Topeka she was endowed with the
art of taking them in. She didn't have
to use bait,-or even spit on the nook.
Since the incident of three years ago
it seems that Mrs. S. w Smedley has
been very busy, using her original hus-
band for kind of headquarters while
hearts. 1t seems also that she has add
ed a number of rare specimens to her
large collection of husbands.
Madame S. Willits-Smedley has
learned much by experience since she
broke into publicity. Among the first
accounts of her was published let
ter which she had written to a student
at Salina, from which it might be
gathered that she had failed In an at
tempt to frisk said student for a $50
ring. The last account of her seems
to Indicate that she is doing better in
a financial way, as she is charged with
rolling a Lincoln, Neb., swain for
$4,000 All that is needed to COM
plete the story is to hear that some
Topeka man has been stang by this
busy little bee.
Now comes the season when business
men will neglect their business, mar
ried men will neglect their families,
students will neglect their studies. and
foreign war news will be crowded out
of the daily papers. The baseball sea-
son is here, with its demoralizing in
fuence and legion of busy fans. With
it comes a sudden change in the pub
lie interest. Men who have been
worrying about the price of meat or
beauties of the spit-ban are discussed
during business hours, and the curves
of different celebrities are illustrated
with hot rolls at the breakfast table.
