A WELL SPREAD TABLE.
And the Man "FeIl Out" With Il.


A manufacturer in Missouri says he
started out as a young man with al
most perfect health but that, "by the
time l was "a my digestive apparatus
was so completely wrecked as to make
my life positive burden.
Il was neither hard drinker nor an
inveterate user of tobacco-my condi-
tion could not be charged up to these
things.
Il had simply ruined my digestion
by a course of living common among
those who indulge in unwisely selected
food and deny their appetites nothing
And so years passed by, during which
every sort of food seemed to do just
the opposite of what it should have
done, with me. A we'll spread table
was offensive to me. The sight or
smell of food made me deathly sick.
In brief 1 had dyspepsia, in it's worst
form, and spent many hard earned
dollar for remedies which did me no
good whatever.
"Ths was my condition when a friend
insisted that I should try Grape Nuts
food, and to please him l consented, ex-
pecting to derive no more benefit or
pleasure from it than had from other
prepared foods that 1 had tried. But
was most happily disappointed.
For more than a year ate positive
ly nothing but Grape-Nuts-it was my
soup course, my meat and my dessert.
1 never tired of it, and grew steadily
fatter and more hearty, till l put 40
pounds Of good solid flesh that had
never been there before, on my bones.
My dyspepsia is gone-the memory of
a terrible nightmare.
IT am we'll now-seems like l cannot
be ill-and GrapeNuts is still found
on my table, in one form or another,
at every meal, and it is never out of
supply in my home. A meal without
Grape Nuts is mighty poor meal for
me- Name given by Postum Co, Bat
tie Creek, Mich.
There's reason.

DIES WHILE sHovELlNG

diers' Home, Drops Dead While at
Work Cleaning Snow From Walk
at the Home-Heart Disease the
Cause.
While shoveling snow off one of
the walks in front of the headquarters
building; at 1880 o'clock Wednesday af-
ternoon, Thomas d. Rayburn, mem;-
dead of heart disease. When detailed,
with others, short time before, to
clear the walks, Mr.. Rayburn appeared
in his usual health, and when he left
his ward to go to work he appeared to
be in unusually good spirits. He was
seen shoveling, but few moments la
ter was found face downward on the
walk wlere he had fallen. He was car
ried to the headquarters building but
was already dead. So far as the au-
thorities knew he had never been sick
and was not troubled with heart dis
ease since he had come to the Home
from Guthrie Center on April 2, 1908.
Thomas ID. Rayburn was born in
Hillsboro, O., Nov. II, $780, He served
in Company f, Tenth Iowa infantry.
His enlistment dates from Poweshiek
county April Z, 1861. He was discharg-
ed on Sept. %, 1864, at Kingston, Ga
Six CHI ldren, the addresses of four of
whom are known, survive him. They
are Frank F. Rayburn, of Guthrie Cen
ter; John w. Rayburfl of Menlo; Mrs.
Clara Weaver. of Iowa Falls, and Mrs.
Anna Lang, of Cheyenne, Wyo. Ar
rangenents for the funeral have not
been made.

MAKE SPORT OF SNOW.
Second Ward Neighborhood Fortunate
Whe, it Comes to "Bucking" Snow.

There is one neighborhood in the
Second ward that is extremely FORUM
ate these days, when walk cleaning
ceases to be a novelty, but rather a
burden. Two young men of the neigh
borhood, Henry Shove, Jr, and Derwin
Blatherwick, have constructed snow
pillow, the width Of the ordinary side
walk 10 which they hitch a horse and
make sport out Of the snow drifts The
pillow is a simple affair, and is made
of heasy planks arranged in triangle
After the boys get over the walks it
is but little work for the residents to
put on the finishing touches. Their eff
forts, which they consider huge sport,
are appreciated by every one in the
neighborhood.

of the latter were delayed from three
to six hours.
Street Car Traffic lnterfered With.
The street cars, which battled with
the heavy snow all day and managed
to keep running, gave up the Struggle
at $50. when the wind had drifted the
snow so badly that it was Impossible
to get thru the high masses that We're
piled here and there on the track All
of the cars excepting one were housed
for the night A south-bound car, from
Third street. got stuck in front or thh
court house. and was annulled for the
night, it being impossible to get 1T TO
the barn. The worst trouble after the
drifts We're cleared was the character
of the snow. which was so wet that It
packed down over the rails so that no
current could be used. BY 10 O'Clock
this morning one car had been run as
far west as First street. Superintend-
emf Hovey expects to be able to have
good rails ana the cars in service
again by this afternoon.
Wires Suffer Damage.
Both telegraph and telephone wires
suffered from the storm. but not so
much as would ordinarily have been
short of wires this morning. but was
able to work direct with ST. Paul and
Omaha, Des Moines and Cedar Rapids.
A Chicago wire was in service, but 1T
was turned over to overland thru bus
mess About the same condition pre-
vailed on the Postal and until the
snow and sleet is melted from tae
wires. regular service can not be eX-
pected Contrary to expectations no
breaks We're found by either company.
The telephone companies had few
scattering wires down in different
parts of town. ana several crosses re-
suited The damage. however, was not
especially serious. The Marshall com
panys toll line south. touching Grim
nell and Oskaloosa, was down. and
number of the rural lines We're not
working.
Rural Carriers Turn Back.
The carriers on the rural mail routes
had to turn back as a result OF the
drifted roads. some hardly getting
fairly out of the city limits before they
realized that it would be foolhardy to
attempt to brave the drifts. Carrier
kinsey, on No. T. southwest, got stuck
between the Greene and Trautmann
farms. Harry Walker. on No. 2, south,
just got out of town and turned back
George McManus, No. 6, south, was al
so only just able to get fairly started
AT noon all of the seven carriers had
returned unable to get farther on their
routes, with the exception of those on
Nos. and 8. They had not been heard
from, but it is not expected they were
able to get hru.
Snowfall Was Heavy.
The snowfall was extremely heavy
and exceeded Wednesday the heavy
snow of last year, just after Christ
mas, when ten inches fell. The snow
fall Wednesday was ia inches and
with what had fallen previously makes
total depth of 16 inches. The maxi
mum tempera ture Wednesday was S3,
as against 80 for Tuesday, and the
minimum II, as against 30. AT 1880
this morning IL was registered, as
against 81 for the corresponding hour
Wednesday morning.

R N Evans

We regret to learn OF the death of
Mr.. r. M Evans which sad event oc-
Cured Tuesday evening at the home of
his brother John A. Evans two miles
west of town. Mr.. Evans had been
sick for the past two months and the
malady failed to respond to the skilled
treatment of his physicians and after
lingering for some time he passed away
Tuesday. Mr.. Rich Evans as he was
known to his friends was a quiet re-
served man and lived an unostentatious
life. He was held in high esteem by a
large circle of friends who knew and
appreciated his many good qualities.
He leaves a wife and several children
to mourn his loss to whom the sympathy
of the community goes out in their
bereavement. The interment took
place at Verona where other members
of the family lie buried.
