Dying Robber Confesses.

Enid, Okla.-By deathbed confess
stone made here Sunday by Cole Ward.
Al Harpster, now serving life sen
tence in the penitentiary on charge of
murder, has been proved guiltless and
will gain his freedom. Ward, who
was dying from bullet wounds inflicted
while resisting arrest, also admitted
that he had killed man in Colorado,
robbed a bank in Denver and helped rob
two trains. but was too weak to give
any details of the crimes. The murder
of which Harpster was convicted and
to which Ward confessed was that o.
Martin Julian, near Poncha City. Ward
said he tried TO rob Julian, who re-
sisted and was killed. Harpster was
convicted on circumstantial evidence.

TUeERCULOSiS CURE.
The Disease in Cattle Absolutely
Cured in Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia.-Not only has the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania officially an
nounced the discovery of an absolutely
certain preventative of tuberculosis in
cattle, but every test so far made con

beings can be made immune to the
great white plague
The experiments with cattle having
been entirely successful since their be
ginning in 1900, DR.. Leonard Pearson
is now continuing his experiments
with monkeys, with results equally
gratifying.
The next step will be to apply the
same methods to human beings, and it
is not doubted that success will fol
low.
1t is estimated that S2,O00O0O worth
of cattle a year will be saved in Penn
sylvania alone by the Pearson treat

tire country will mean the saving of
more than s1,000,000,0GO.

BITS FOR BACHELORS.

Many men think themselves self
made who are really marriage made.
The man who avoids matrlmony on
account of the cares of welded life
rivals the wiseacre who secured him
self against corns by having his legs
amputated.
Don't marry for beauty alone. Soc
rates called beauty "a short-lived tyr
amy" and Theophrastus pronounced
It "a silent cheat" The man who
marries for beauty alone is as silly
as the man who would buy house be-
cause it had fine flowers in the front
garden.
1t is in life as It is with kite; 1t
will not fly very high until it has
string tying 1t down. And so the man
who is tied down by half dozen re-
sponsibilities and their mother will
make higher and stronger fight than
the bachelor who. having nothing to
keep him steady, is always fioundering
in the mud.

BUILDING FOOD
To Bring the Babies Around.

To Bring the Babies Around.
When little human machine Cor a
large one) goes wrong, nothing is so
important as the selection of food to
bring it around again.
My little baby boy fifteen months
old had pneumonia, then came brain
fever, and no sooner had he got over
these than he began to cut teeth and,
being so weak. he was frequently
thrown into commissions" says Col
orado mother.
II decided a change might help, so
took him to Kansas City for a visit.
When we got there he was SO very
weak when he would cry he would
sink away and seemed like he would
die.
when I reached my sisters home
she said Immediately that we must
feed him Grape-Nuts and, although l
had never used the food, we got some
and for a few days gave him just the
juice of Grape-Nuts and milk. He
got stronger so quickly we were soon
feeding him the Grape-Nuts itself and
in a wonderfully short time he fat
tened right up and became strong and
we'll.
That showed me something worth
knowing and, when later on my girl
came, | raised her on Grape-Nuts and
she is strong healthy baby and has
been. You will see from the little
photograph I send you what strong.
chubby youngster the boy is now, but
he didn't look anything like that be-
fore we found this nourishing food.
GrapeNuts nourished him back to
strength when he was so weak he
couldn't keep any other food on his
stomach" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
All children can be built to more
sturdy and healthy condition upon
Grape Nuts and cream. The food con-
tains the elements nature demands,
from which to make the soft gray
filing in the nerve centers and brain.
A well-fed brain and strong, sturdy
nerves absolutely insure healthy
body.

book, "The Road to Wellville."

THE cADDYs COMMENT.
One That Was Not Very Complimen-
tary to a Professional
Player.

Walter ]. Travis, the golfer, set UP
his ball, and then made half do2eE
swishes at the short grass with the
driver, relates the New York Tribune,
Il am not in good form" he said. Il
am playing like a broker we had here
last week.
This broker played once around,
making dreadful exhibition of him
self. OF this, though, he was not
aware. He was doing pretty well for
him.
The mans caddy was an unusually
quiet, stolid lad, Coy with freckled
face quite devoid of expression.
And since the caddy never once
laughed or sneered at his bad play,
the broker took fancy to him. And
he said at the end of the round, in
the hope of getting a compliment:
81 have been trave,ing for the last
six months. | am quite out OF prac-
,ice. That is why | am in such bad
fern to-day
The caddy replied. calmly:
Then ye've Played before, have
ye. sir?'"

ODD EATING CUSTOMS.

Trazilians never eat when they
drink, nor drink when they eat; an!
the Tartars continually persist in pull
ing guest by the ear until he'd:,nks.
Maldive islanders retire to the dark
est part of the houses and hang cur
tains about them. SO that none CT
their fellowmen may see them at their
meal.
When they desire to show a mark
of great esteem, the negroes OF Ardra
drink from the same cup at the same
time, and the King of Loango used
to eat and drink in two separate
houses.
The Philippine islander will not eat
a meal alone. Whenever a Filipino
finds himself without comranion
with whom to share his meal he will
abstain from eating until he has
found one.
A strange custom prevails In KAN
chtaka, where man who wich-s to
entertain a guest invites him into a
cabin, which is heated to an excessive
temperature, and then presses him
with food until he is In state of tor
por. Instances of men dying at these
orgies have been known.
The Tahitians, though naturally
sociable race, dine separately. Even
the man and his wife do not eat to-
gehter. Each member of the fam "

their places about five yards apart.

DIETARY DICTA.

Dinner should be of lighter nature
in summer than in winter.
A quart of wheat contains more nu-
triment than bushel of cucumbers.
There is happy mean between eat
ing everything and being squeamish.
Two pounds of potatoes contain as
much nutriment as 13 pounds Of
turnips.
Light soups. light desserts and light
meals should have the preference in
warm weather.
Vegetables and fruits are to be used
most generously at that season of the
year in which they naturally mature.
Beginning the dinner with soup is
the very best way to get the whole

DESERTED BOY
Returned to Waterbury By Minister From New
 BFmswick N. J.

Little Harold Reed who disappeared so mysteriously with his father last week has returned but he is not likely to be taken in by his mother. Mrs Reed, as she is penniless. her husband having left her so and she has nothing with which 10 care for the child. so for the present he will be taken to the Brookside home. He was found by Rev Mir Brock Saturday evening in New Brunswick, with whom he has been staying since that time. Yester- day afternoon the New Jersey pastor came into the police station with little Harold and the case was immediately discussed by Mr Brock and Superir- tendent of Police Beach. When Mrs Reed was asked to care for the child she. absolutely refused 10 do so since the child was an adopted one and was the pet of her husband who deserted her last week.
 Ii now appears that before Norman Reed left Waterbury he sold his farm near Morris and took with him all the money which he had in local banks. which it is said to have been about A.0O0. He owed various concerns about town lot of money. but he settled up when they presented their bills. Later yesterday Harold was showrf picture of his father and al- though he admitted at first that he was the man that Kidnapped him. he later denied it. As Mir Reed has a great fondness for the child and as he has plenty of money. his friends do not believe he deserted the child. Meanwhile Mir Reed and his money have not been seen or beard of since last week and several are on the anxious seat suspecting foul play.
 As Mrs Reed is hardly able 10 care for herself the authorities do not blame her for not trying to support the child. At the Brookside he will De we'll taken care of until something turns up.
