EXPORTS OF UNITED STATES
Agricultural Products to the Value Of
100000 Sent Abroad in
Eight Months.

Washington.-A bulletin issued by
the department of commerce and labor
shows that the total value of agricul-
tural products exported from the Unit
ed States for the eight months of the
fiscal year 1906, ended with Februay,
was $500, 0,00O,O 900, as against $3.50, ,0OO. 900
in the same period of 1900, $664, ,00O, 900
in 1902 and $568. 100000 in 1905.
The growth Of the exports of agri-
cultural products, says the bulletin, oc-
ours in all the three great groups which
form the bulk of agricultural exports,
viz: Breadstuffs, cotton and provisions.
the latter including meat and dairy
products. The gain in breadstuffs was
$70,0o0.000; in provisions, $4,000, 900,
and in cotton. $30.O0O,OOO. The in
crease in the exports of breadstuna oc-
CURED chiefly in the movement to
European countries.
While agricultural exports are larger
In total value than ever before, the per-
centage which they form of the total ex-
ports in the eight recorded months OF
the fiscal year 1906, is smaller than in
any earlier year in our history, except
1905.
The percentage which manufacturers
form of exports in the eight months
ended with February, 1906, is 32.y,
while they formed but 27.2 per cent. OF
the total exports in the corresponding
months of 1903 and 22.5 per. cent. in
the corresponding months in 1888.

FLESH LOST ON FRUIT DIET
Bananas, Apples and Grapes Have
Been Found Not Good for
Englishmen.

London. = Pure fruitarianism al
though it may maintain life, would
probably prove more troublesome to
Englishmen than a mixed diet. This is
the observation of DR.. Noel Patton in the
diet number Of the Practitioner.
He quotes the cases of enthusiastic
vegetarians. One lived for five days On
nine and half pounds of bananas, and,
although 40 per cent. in weight below
he average for his height when the ex-
pertinent started, he lost four and half
pounds in the five days. In Al days an
other lost Is and half pounds on diet
Of grapes and apples, one pound more in
a fortnight on figs and oranges.
DR.. Patton tells of a California girl.
however. who remained well and
healthy on nuts. fruit, olive Oh AMI
honey. The nuts yielded the necessary
proteid and the olive oil the fat.

REPAIRING BRAIN
A Certain Way by Food.

Every minister, lawyer, journalist,
physician, author or business man Is
forced under pressure Of modern con-
ditions to the active and sometime
overactive use of the brain.
Analysis of the excreta thrown out
by the pores shows that brain work
breaks down the phosphate of potash,
separating 1t from it's heavier compan.
ion, albumen, and plain common sense
teaches that this elemental principle
must be introduced into the body anew
each day. If we would replace the loss
and rebuild the brain tissue.
We know tnat the phosphate OF
potash, as presented in certain field
grains, has an aflnity for albumen and
that is the only way gray matter in tn
brain can be built. 1t will not auswe,
to take the crude phosphate Of potash
Of the drug shop, for nature rejects 1t
The elemental mineral must be pre-.
sented through food directly from ma.
ture's laboratory.
These facts have been made use OF
in the manufacture of Grape Nuts, and
any brain worker can prove the value
Of the proper selection of food by max.
ing free use Of Grape-Nuts for ten days
or two weeks. Sold by grocers every.

Symphony orchestra falls behind its
expenses in the sum of $4,000. In Chi
cago the fine organization founded and

help Of rentals" says Life. 1t is
about SO everywhere and still the pur-
veyors Of music do not learn that or
dinary mortals creep before they walk
and walk before they fly.
Whatever symphonies may be to the
adept. they are noise to the general and
only now and then some adventitious
circumstance, some occasional fad or
foible will put the general in the mind
to pay out their good money to be
bored. The music which hath charms
to separate the savage from his coin Is
the music which he esteems as such
and with precisely that sort of thing
will they have to begin who would lift

oRAvE.DIocERs' BANQUET.
3houlish Affair Throughout, Held in
One Of the PARIS Res
taurants.

Paris.-A gay company Of profess
sional grave diggers lately met IN one
Of the most popular of the boulevard
restaurants aud had the strangest din
ner ever given in Paris. The proprie-
tor Of the place made 1t an express
condition that the nature of the feast
must not leak out and reach the ears
Of the scores Of regular aristocratic
patrons Of the restaurant.
The menu was printed in the most
dismal and ghoul-like terms. 1t was
enough to make anyone but Q profes-
sional grave digger shudder.
A newspaper writer who happened
to get himself smuggled into the ban
quet room took just one look at the
menu and then made for the door as
fast n he could go. followed by .
sepulchral sort Of song. the last line
Of the chorus saying:
We expect to see you again."
Every item on the menu bore the
name Of some Paris cemetery or con-
tained some allusion to the tomb.
The first toast was Long Life to
Death, the Queen of the World" The
grave digger who responded to 1t
made the hit of the evening with his
humorous twits about her majesty.
There were numerous other toasts.
all smacking Of the business Of the
diners, and every response recaived
generous applause.
But il the toasts were humoi Gus,
the songs were not less SO. To the
most dfrpe-like tunes the CAV com-
pany sang the merriest of words.
A few men not of the fraternity
managed to stick there until the end
Of the weird feast. They said after
ward that they found the menu full
of shudders but the entire affair most
enjoyable.

LACK OF LAsoReRs.
Leave Work In the Country for Idle
ness In the City.

In other countries the growth OF dis
content is chiefly, II not wholly. due TO
tne excessive supply Of labor, says the
Shicago Journal. But in the United
states the demand for labor greatly
exceeds the supply. The difficulty is
that labor crowds into the already CON
gested cities and will not even in ex-
IRENE necessity go into the country,
where 1t is lacking.
President Hill of the Great Northern
railroad says that ''in the West pros
perity Is everywhere in evidence. The
only drawback Is scarcity OF labor
AS matter of fact. labor Is SO scarce
that many farmers are selling portion
OF their land because enough labor can
not be obtained to carry on operations
on large SCALE"
We hear the same complaint every
year. Throughout the fertile and pros.
porous West crops go to waste in great
measure because labor enough to care
Tor them cannot be had at any price,
Meanwhile cities like Chicago are over.
nowing with unskilled laborers. who
have nothing to do but grumble and
talk OF that new millennium they call
Socialism.
During all the years since the war
the urban population of the country
mas been growing at the expense Of the
rural population. Though of late tho
farmers lise has been relieved of most
OF the loneliness and discomforts that
used to make 1t less desirable than city
life in those respects and he now has
free delivery of letters and newspa-
pers, telephone connection and rapid
transit by trolley lines almost every
where, yet most farmers sons head for
the cities as soon as possible and the
cities receive by far the largest proper
tion of immigrants.
Aside from the inconvenience and
distress this tendency produces. 1t Is
not good omen for the Nations moral
or physical health. The lure of the city
is In most cases lure for unwhole
some desires-the desire to get rich
quickly, to procure enervating and de-
morallzing luxurics, to enjoy those dis
sipations which thrive wherever great
numbers of men and women are hud-

PLAGUE OF CATS.
The Paris Police Adopt Stringent,
Measures

measures.
Cats in London are often a nuisance
to the householder when they fight
upon the roof in the middle OF the
night, but in Paris, especially near the
Halles Centrales, they are said to have
become a public danger. 1t appears
that these animals swarm in thousands
all over the markets, and, as most of
them are NANCY and otherwise dis
eased, 1t is feared that they will con
taminate the goods set out for sale,
SO the police have issued an edict that
all the stray cats are to be captured
and put into lethal chamber, and as
a consequence the kind-hearted market
women have adopted many of the cats
and now claim them as their own prop
erty. Bus NJ. Guichard, the police in
spector in charge OF the markets, will
hear of no mercy, and the offending
animals are to be slaughtered without
delay. The police are to surround the
market and to carry sacks in which to
put the captured cats. What is to be
done If the cats escape on to the roofs
Is not stated.
