The following statement is printed
in the Lawrenceburg, Indiana, Regis
ter: The statement recently pub

that General Pike, the explorer, is
buried in the Greendale cemetery at
Lawrenceburg, Indiana, is erroneous.
Col. Zebulon Pike. the father of Gen.
Zebulon Montgomery Pike, the ex-
plorer, is buried in Greendale.
"The elder Pike was an officer in the
Revolution. He was born in New Jcr-

In 1891, was brevet lieutenant colonel
U. s. A. July 10, 1912. For many
years he was an honored citizen of
Lawrenceburg. He and Gen. William
Henry Harrison owned adjoining
tracts of land near Lawrenceburg.
Colonel Pike built a house on his land,
where he lived and died July q, 1884.
Joseph Hayes bought both tracts and
afterward sold a portion of the Harri-
son tract to the Greendale Cemetery
Association. Colonel Pike was first
buried in a private burying ground on
the east side of the ridge road (now
Ridge avenue) and his remains we're
afterward removed to Greendale Gem

captured and conveyed to Santa Fe,
where his papers were taken from him
and he sent home, reaching the United

his name, one Of the most magnificent
monuments on u planet, more en-

GREAT CHANGE
From Change In Food.

The brain depends much more on
the stomach than we are apt to sup
pose until we take thought in the mat
ter. Feed the stomach on proper food
easy to digest and containing the
proper amount Of phosphates and the
healthy brain will respond to all de-
mands. A notable housewife in Buff
falo writes:
"The doctor diagnosed my trouble
as a nervous affection Of the stom-
ach.' l was actually so nervous that
/ could not sit still for five minutes
to read the newspaper, and to attend
to M household duties was simply
impossible. l d%octored all the time
with remedies, but medicine did no
good.
MY physician put mt on all sorts
of diet, and l tried many kinds Of
cereal foods, but none of them agreed
with me. | was almost discouraged,
and when tried Grape-Nuts did so
with many misgivingsI had no faith
that it would succeed where every
thing else had failed.
But it did succeed, and you don't
know how glad l am that l tried it.
| feel like a new person, | have gain
ed in weight and l don't have that
terrible burning sensation in my stom-
ach any more. / feel so strong
again that l am surprised at myself.
The street noises that used to irritate
me so, | never notice now, and my
mind is so clear that my household
duties are a real pleasure"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich.
There's a reason.
Now why was this great change
made in this woman?
The stomach and the brain had not
been supplied with the right kind Of
food to rebuild and strengthen the
nerve centers in these organs. It is
absolute folly to try to do this with
medicine. There is but one sure way
and that is to quit the old food that
has failed and take on Grape-Nuts
food which is more than half digested
in the process Of manufacture and is
rich in the phosphate Of potash con-
tanned in the natural grain, which
unites with albumen and water-the
only three substances that will make
up the soft gray filling In the thou
sands of delicate nerve centres in the
brain and body. Grape-Nuts food is a
sure road back to health In all such
cases.

Automotor Cars.

The International Railway Congress
at its recent meeting in Washington
considered the use of automotors and
in its resolutions declares that exper-
iments with this class of vehicles
should be continued.
1T may be expected" the conclu-
sions say, that from now on automo-
bile cars and automotors hauling trail
ers will constitute a valuable means of
transportation which on some lines
will have a great future. Owing to the
saving in the number of employees re-
quired, the probable reduction in cost
of maintenance, the material reduction
in the cost of traction and better util-
ization of rolling stock and the smaller
extent Of station installations required.
it Will be possible materially to reduce
the cost of working lines with little
traffic, and will, in the cases of other
lines, result in a material improve
ment in the working of some classes
Of service. Their use will certainly eff
feet a change in the system of opera
ton in the case Of a great number of
lines and appears to have a real fu-
ture before it,"

Mars PeopIsd BY Farmers.

Mars is inhabited" The fact is
proved according to Prof. Robert w.
Prentiss Of Rutgers College, by the
straight lines on the surface of the
planet, which, he says, are fortified
areas Of land instead Of huge canals,
as heretofore believed by astronomers.
These views, which are the results Of
his scientific researches, he set forth
recently in a stereopticon lecture held
under the auspices of the board Of ed
ucation at Fifty-ninth street and Park
avenue.
He said that nearly the entire sur
face of the planet Mars was desert
land, and that through the wastes
were many straight lines. which he
believed were strips of land, cultivated
by intelligent people.-New York
