NO MEDICINE.
But Change of Food Gave Final Relief.

Most diseases start in the aliment- ary canal-stomach and bowels
 A great deal of our stomach and bowel troubles come from eating too much starchy and greasy food.
 The stomach does not digest any ot the starchy food we eat-white bread. pastry, potatoes. oats, ete.-these things are digested in the small iutes- tines, and if We eat too much. as most Of Us do the organs that should di- gest this kind of food are overcome by excess Of work. so that fermenta- tion. indigestion. and a long train of ais result
 Too much fat also is hard to digest. and this is changed into acids. sour stomach. belching gas. and a bloaty. heavy feeling.
 In these conditions a change from indigesuble foods to Grape-Nuts will work wonders in not only relieving the distress but in building up a strong digestion, clear brain and steady nerves. A Wash. woman writes:

Due allowance Is made for all the losses that may occur before the cotton is on the loom. and suf feient amount is deducted from the price to make good all this loss To put it plainly. Is it not an inestima- bly important matter for the cotton planter to go to work and save about sl250 on every bale of American cotton sold This vast sum of money about s15O.00O.0 .000 is money that the South needs in her business. and she can have 1t if she will pack cot. ion as carefully as does the Oriental planter.

Pembroke, II. H.. Jan us. The authori-
ties OF Mcrrimach county and of the town
of Pembroke today resumed investiga-
tion Of the grim tragedy IN which seven
persons were victims and an eighth took
his own life yesterday. After daylight
many of the towspeople visited the ruins
of the farmhouse nt North Pembroke
which for three yeam bad been occupied
by Charles +. Aver, his immediate family
and his mother-in-law, Mrs. Isaac Lake
man.
Following the murder Of Mrs. lake
man, Mrs. Aver and the FIVE children of
the latter, the farm buildings were burned
and the bodies incinoratcd. Before tho
fire was discovered by the ncighbors,
Aver left homo for the residence of his
sister, Mrs. George Bailey, IN the town Of
Chichester six miles distant, where he
shot HIMSELF after being informed Of tho
destruction OF the property Aver died
last night. without making a statement
which would assist the authorities to
ascertain the exact manner in which his
seven relatives met their deaths. llo
acted In "a strange manner after bis ar
rival at the Bailey house, and the county
officials concluded early In the evening,
after hasty examination, that he had
murdered all seven members of his family
as they lay in their beds late Tuesday
night or early yesterday morning.
The ruins had cooled during the night,
and careful search was instituted for the
remains OF FIVE Of the victims. Two
ohamed trunks, one Of which is supposed
to be that of Mn. Lakcman and the other
that OF a child. were found in the debris.
The authorities believe that Aver used
an axe or some other noiseloss weapon, as
they have learned that the neiehhors
heard no pistol shots OF disturbance of
any kind at tho Aver home previous to
the fire. They do not expect that the do
tails OF the actual commission Of the crime
will ever become known.
ln his investigation Of Ayers move
ments yesterday, County Solicitor Cliff
ford learned that Aver had visited Chi
chester, where he sold his team and pre-
sumahly purchased the revolver with
which he ended his own life. He mado
his appearance nc the home Of his sister,
Mrs Bailey, about O'Clock in the after
noon. An hour later one Of his niegh-
bon, William II. Fowler arrived and told
Aver of the burning of his home With
out word in reply, Aver drew the re-
volver from his pocket and shot himself

 MISS JEWEL REED, aged r years, daughter of the proprietor.
 MRS. PURVERMACKER, aged 8 years. of St. Charles, Mo.

 Mrs. Hitler, aged 70 years.
 Miss Jewel Reed lost her life in try ing to save others. She was seen to rush into the street and cry for help when the flames broke out, and then dashed back into the house to alarm the occupants.
 The three bodies were found in the bath-room, the women apparently having groped their way in through the smoke trying to find an avenue of escape All three bodies were badly charred. Aged Mrs. Hitler was lying i'll in her room when the flames broke out, and in desperation she jumped from a window, breaking a leg.
