Football Saved Him.

DDS is all that saved me from injury,
possibly DEATH" said President Da-
vid Starr Jordan, of the Leland
Stanford, Jr., University, the other
day, when speaking of the railway
accident he was in when two Santa
Fe passenger trains came into COLI
sion near Corona Tuesday. DR.. Jor-
dan was standing in the aisle, and
he fell on his shoulder and rolled
over in the best football style. He
was able to arise and assist several
Of the injured in his car.
Here is a brand new Endorsement
of the value of football from no less
person than the president of uni
versity where the game has been
popular. We are not told that DR..
Jordan ever played the game, but he
gives testimony that his knowledge
Of the game saved his life by teach
ing how to fall without getting hurt.
We can now count on Leland Stan
ford sticking to the strenuous sport,
despite the opposition of the facul-
ties of the effete East, who, if they
got caught in a railroad wreck,
would doubtless not know how to
fall and would be smashed.-New-

Chiid's Coat.

The little coat made of lingerie ma
terial is one of the latest whims Of
fashion and is exceedingly attractive
for the wee tots. This one is espe-
cially designed for the flouncing in
which it is shown, but could be made
from any plain material if the straight
edges are appropriately trimmed, al
though the flouncing has certain ad-
vantages, notable among which is the
fact that it reduces the labor of maxi
ing to the minimum. For the very
thin coats batiste is well liked and is
always extremely dainty, but there
are also slightly heavier flouncings
which can be utilized for the every
day coats, while still palmer gar
ments can be made of the fiouncing

BACK TO PULPIT
What Food Die For a Clergyman.

Administer of Elizabethtown tells
how Grape-Nuts food brought him
back to his pulpit: Some 5 years
ago I had an attack of what seemed
20 be La Grippe, which left me in a
complete state of collapse and I suf-
tered for some time with nervous
prostration. My appetite failed,
lest flesh until was mere skeleton,
life was q burden to me, lost inter-
est in everything and almost in
everybody save my precious wife.
Then on the recommendation of
some friends I began the use or
Grape-Nuts food. At that time was
d miserable skeleton, without appe-
tite and hardly able to walk across
the room; had ugly dreams at night,
no disposition to entertain or be en-
tertained and began to -shun society.
II finally gave up the regular min
istry, indeed I could not collect my
thoughts on any subject, and became
almost a hermit. After l had been
using the Grape-Nuts food for short
time I discovered that I was taking
on new life and my appetite began to
Improve; began to sleep better and
my weight increased steadily; l had
lost some so pounds, but under the
new food regime have regained al
most my former weight and have
greatly improved in every way.
II feel that owe much to Grape
Nuts and can truly recommend the
food to all who require a powerful
rebuilding agent delicious to taste
and always welcome" Name given
by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
A true natural road to regain health,
or hold it, is by use of a dish OF
Grape-Nuts and cream, morning and
night. Or have the food made into
some of the many delicious dishes
given in the little recipe book found
in pkgs.

Happy Paraguay.

In Paraguay the women are in
the proportion of seven to one as
compared with the men. The con-
sequence is that the men are taken
the greatest care Of, and everything
which is unpleasant or might be
risky to the life Of man is done by
the women. The streets are cleaned,
ships are loaded, oxen are driven by
them, and it is even said that they
have taken part in their country's
wars, acting as substitutes for their
men folk.-Argus.

Americas New Silver City.

There is a new Silver City in the
world. Just now it is only a camp
city, called Cobalt, $40 miles almost
due north of Toronto, in the icy
stretches of Ontario, but 5000 men
from all North America-land-
sharks, California placer-miners, plo-
neers from the Yukon, Canadian
lumber-jacks, and mining experts
from the East-are rubbing elbows
there as they toll over the wealth OF
ore. The city is booming indeed, and
every train which runs anywhere
near it sets down a new crowd to add
to- the population. Of the richness
of the region there is no doubt. Ge-
ologists have proclaimed it the most
remarkable silver camp in North
America, so far as ore values are
concerned.
It would take several acres OF

lies, to l.Ssture an able-bodied goat
It is a wild country, perhaps as wild

is a country of beautiful lakes, '"'ell
stocked by nature with pike and
pickeral, bass and catfish. The for

and tamarack But the most strik-
ing thing to the tenderfoot and the
geologist alike is the marvellous
abundance of rock. You find 1t
everywhere. 1t is in the bush,
throughout the swamp-iand, on the
lake shore. Dig for it in the woods
and you will hardly go three feet
before you strike it. Perhaps we
may have here the brcast-bone OF
the continent.
In this rock has lain for centuries
some of the richest ores and miner
ais yet discovered by man. Here,
mingled with the rich magenta of
the cobalt bloom and the peculiar
lizard green of nickel bloom, are bis
muth, pyrite, antimony, native and
ruby silver, and tr; les of copper and

How to Overcome Fear.

In overcoming your various fears,
follow each one out to it's logical con-
clusion thus, and convince yourself
that at the present moment the things
you fear do not exist save in your
Imagination. Whether they ever
come to pass in the future or not,
your fear is a waste of time, energy
and actual bodily and mental
strength. Quit worrying just as you
would quit eating or drinking some
thing you felt sure had caused you
pain in the past.

Serge in COIOrS.

White serge is daily increasing in
favor. Every suit that appears is al
most sure to sell the material for an
other suit. Pure, clear white is as
charming as it can be, but there is
something; especially soft and attrac-
tive about the creamy tint of the
serges. Black velvet always adds a
bright touch to them in the form Of
collar, cuffs, ETC., but blue and green
and even red are becoming if Tin har-

No Gloves For Tennis.

burned to the elbow swinging along

scrawny arms, too, but the wearer
