GRAPE-NUTs
SUN STROKE
Followed by Partial Starvation.

The effects OF sun stroke upon the di-
gestive system are often very severe, as we'll

An Ind. lady had a striking experience:
-Four years ago I was sun struck, and
stomach 50 congested it was terribly
painful even 10 swallow liquids, and as
nothing would stay on my stomach, l be-
gan to fear starvation. l finally became
perfectly helpless and was given I'D by
our physician.
"A neighbor told me how much good
Grape-Nuts had done her husband, who
suffered with dyspepsia, and her son with
typhoid fever. 30 L began TO use this won
derful food, and slowly began TO recover
until now l am strong and we'll again. 1
can eat anything l want, and think Grape
Nuts n Of tho greatest blessings that was
ever given TO suffering humanity.
When l began to use Grape-Nuts l only
weighed lls lbs. Now l weigh lGs, and
the past four years have been a blessing
almost beyond belief, and II I had not per-
sonal experience, l could hardly believe what
I know Is true. Ny nerves are steady,
memory cloar and I owe my fine condition
to Grape-Nuts." Name given by Postum

CLERGYMAN's WIFE A SUICIDE.

Illness, Kills Herself with Gas.


Illness. Kills Herself with Gas.
Mrs. Leonora McMichael, wife Of the Rev.
Richard McMichael, pastor Of the First
Baptist Church in Arlington, N. j., COM
mitted suicide early yesterday morning.
She had been i'll for several days and her
mind had become affected. She was very
melancholy and at times hysterical. Owing
to her condition her husband and the SER
wants sat up with her until 1 o'clock yester-
day morning. Mrs. McMichael seemed to
fall asleep then and the others went to bed.
When the Rev. Mr.. McMichael awoke
In the morning he found no trace of his
wife. He supposed she had felt much bet
ter and had come to this city, as she had
been talking OF doing so for several days.
To ward noon the Odoro OF gas became notice
able In the house. The clergyman and the
servants made a search for the leak and
tr aced II to the garnet. There they found
Mrs. McMichael's body. She had CON-
nected a rubber tube with a gas let. and
placing the other end in her mouth had
wrapped q blanket about her head and
face. She had been dead many hours.
Mrs. McMiohael's death was a shock
TO the village, where she was very popular.
She took an active interest in church and
charitable work and was well known as a
vocalist In Arlington and other places
in the vicinity. She was II years OF age
and had no children.

pushed by Asthma. He Shoots Himself.
Les Quatre ~Craqueurs met, as was their
Saturday night custom, at Andres, on
West Thirty-sev enth street, last night.
But there were only three Of them. They
turned up one chair and one glass OF ciaret
they allowed to stand untasted before the
turned up chair. For M. Prosper Mincur,
the fourth of the Quatre Craqueurs, had
shot himself below the heart and had died
in his lodgings on Sew enth avenue that
afternoon. II was at number AS.
1T is too bad" said NJ. Emilion, one
of the three remaining, as he took his
seat at the table. But it was TO be ex-
pected."
Yes" said NJ. st. Antoine, and you will
remember how he said: 1t is not fitting
that a soldier Of France should show weak
ness Yet he was 70 years old-and that
is DID,"
Truly said" added M. lFranchon, the
last Of the Quatre C~raqueurs. Yet he died
quickly and as a soldier. That was some
thing"
So the three remaining members OF the
Quatre Craqueurs drank their wine last
night in silence and when the hour came for
Andres closing they went their several
ways.
Les Quatre, and that is the name that
Andre knows them by, are not all liars.
They chose that name out OF s~portiveness.
They are all old fellows, Frenchmen, who
nave been wont to gather every Saturday
night in Andres and there swap yarns
and spin tales Of the old days back in France
when they were all young. M. Prosper,
who shot himself, was the light OF the four.
He always had a merry heart, they say
sunshine or rain. And it was his story
oil how he killed the Prussian that always
came after the demi tasse. This 10 the
story:
when I was a franc-tireur I was a very
timid young man. The battle made me
sick, and when the fri ng began l used to
feel a weakness in the knees. This troubled
me greatly, for l was a loyal franc tireur
and 1 wanted to support the colors Of France
as best l could.
Blu every time / went into battle there
would be that trembling OF the knees and
my stomach would 20 'boom-hoom' against,
nv heart and stuff me all up with fear.
This was embarrassing. Often did ! berate
myself for being a coward. Yet I knew
that l was not a coward.
-The test came. my friends, in the little
engagement which we had with the Prus-
slams outside Of Bernay. We we're sur
prised, and the Uhlans came down the road
on us like a whirlwind. 1t wal during the
breakfast hour-a most irregular hour
for the attack. 1 was sitting with my cup
- i
the Prussians came around the turn Of
the road.
Il jumped to my feet and reached for my
rife. But, alas! a great blond Uhlan was
down on me with his lance be fore l could
throw a shell into the chamber. And this
was the good fortune, my friends, just as
the Prussian launched at me with his lance

MURPHY OFF TO BUFFALO.

Took the N 80 p. VI. Train After staying
Away From the Hall All Day.
Charles F.. Murphy left for Buffalo last
night on the train leaving the Grand Central
Station at II 30. He was accompanied only
~ Tom Smith, secretary Of Tammany Hall.
He did not appear at Tammany Hall yester-
day. District leaders who waited around
the building until late in the afternoon
drfted away under the belief that he had
gone 10 Buffalo on some other line than the
New York Central to evade the newspaper
men, who for two days had been endeavoring
10 find out il he intended to fight for the en-
forcement OF the unit rule at Monday nights
caucus in Buffalo Of the Tsmmany delegates.
Mr.. Murphy has refused TO answer any
questions which have been put TO him along
these lines, but to the committee repre-
Eenting the Sulzer forces which called upon
him on Friday he said that he was going to
Buffalo with an entirely unprejudiced mind,
that he liked Sulzer personally and that
Sulzer il nominated would have no warmer
supporter. One of Mr.. Murphy's friends
who was seen yesterday said:
Charley will do nothing definite until
after the caucus. The Sullivan n the
Mcclellan men, / understand, will not follow
out their threat 10 remain out OF the caucus,
because combined they think they will have
enough votes 10 defeat any project Murphy
may bring forward TO commit thed delegates
from this county 10 Hearst. Once Murphy
finds that he has no chance of carrying
erect the unit rule there is no doubt that he
will drop Hearst and will be willing to listen
