BACK TO PULPIT.
What Food Did for Clergyman.

A minister of Elizabethtown tells
how Grape-Nuts food brought him
back to his pulpit: "Some years ago
i had an attack Of what seemed to be
La Grippe which left me in COM
plete state of collapse and suffered
for some time with nervous prostra-
ton. My appetite failed, lost flesh
till | was a mere skeleton, life was a
burden to me, l lost interest in every
thing and almost in everybody save
my precious wife.
"Then on the recommendation of
some friends / began to use Grape
Nuts food. At that time was a mis-
cradle skeleton, without appetite and
hardly able to walk across the room;
had ugly dreams at night, no DISPOSE
ton to entertain or be entertained and
began to shun society.
81 finally gave up the regular minis
try, indeed l could not collect NY
thoughts ON any subject, and became
almost a hermit. After had been
using the Grape Nuts food for a short
time / discovered that I was taking
on new life and my appetite began to
improve; I began to sleep better and
my weight increased steadily; had
lost some so pounds, but under the
new food regime l have regained al
most my former weight and have
greatly improved in every way.
II feel that / owe much to Grape
Nuts and can truly recommend the
food to all who require a powerful re-
building agent, delicious to taste and
always welcome"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Greek, Mich A true natural road to
regain health, or hold it, is by use
of a dish Of Grape-Nuts and cream
morning and night. Or have the food
made into some of the many delicious
dishes given in the little recipe book
found in pk9s.
Ten days trial of Grape-Nuts helps
many. There's a reason"

nous little book, "The Road to Well

The Temperament" Excuse.

Sometimes you hear as an excuse
for faults, ct is my temperament"
Do you not know that the perversions
of a temperament are not the temper
ament itself? There never was a
temperament that had not it's good
as well as it's evil possibilities. The
truth is that we inherit our tempera-
ment with it's natural perversions,
and it is our business in life to shake
off the perversions, in order that we
may find the veritable temperament
itself, and that 1t may carry us on
truly to the best work that such a
temperament can do. If all who have
excused themselves for selfishness and
evil because of the artistic tempera-
ment'' had recognized that they were
really excusing the provisions of their
temperament, and not the tempera-
ment itself, much needless pain and
sorrow might have been avoided

The Virtue Of Abbreviation.

A writer in the Evening Standard,
complaining of the London habit OF
abbrevlation, says he would like to
hang the "fiend who christened the
Baker street and Waterloo railway
the 'Bakerloo Tube" We think he
should canonize him. This column
speaks with a certain anxiety-for 1T
at least gave currency to both those
authorizations. On the opening day
of the Shepherds Bush and Mansion
House line a forgotten omnibus driver
fired the gibe, ut amt nothing but
a twopenny tube" at the people who
turned from his omnibus and took to
the bowels of the earth The officials
who could build railway could not
name it. The drivers gibe fixed the
word. In the same way the London
public though quite ready to travel
by the Baker street and Waterloo
railway wanted to save its breath,
and for the economy Of hurried speech
the suggestion was here made-Ba-
kerloo. The two words have been
taken to the heart of travellers, and
received official sanction; for at
Trafalgar square you are directed to
the "Bakerloo Tube" The phrase is
swift, convenient, as matter OF
speech, and has just as much relation
to literary language as bill OF lad

GREAT FEAT OF RUNNER.
Six Hundred Miles IN five
Days over the Roughest hlno
of Country.

Tho Tarahumares, a great tribe Oh
the northern Sierra Madre, are the
greatest runners on eayth, not IN re-
gard to speed but in endurance. Iney
have been known to average Tlo mlies
per day; there is an absolute recolu
that is indisputable of Tarahullaie
sent with an important government
document that necessitated an lmme-
date answer covering the distance
there and back, 6OO-mile jaunt, In nVe
days. or an average of 12O miles COW
cred in each "a hours, not counting
the time lost while the answer Was
being prepared, and it must be re-
membered that this feat was not per-
formed upon fair road or on an IN
dulating plain. 1t was over the WHO
est country that the Sierra Madre al
fords: up and down paths tnat Ine
very deer would hardly esteem trlal'
the only level ground encountered was
the crossing of a deep river Also, the
Journey was done on "pinole,

A Woman's Find.

With only an Indian half-breed as
helper, Lillian X. Malcolm, woman
mining prOspector in Nevada, profess
es her belief that she has discov-
cred ledge of rich copper and gold
ore in a ridge 5000 feet long in the
foothills Of Death valley. Miss NAL
colin, who claims to have traversed
the wilds of Alaska in search for gold,
and has been a prospector for te'
years, made up her mind to examine
the funeral range and there found
this ledge, which she believes holds
millions for the skilled miner, and that
the fame for opening up the copper
region of Death valley belongs to her.

Room Cool and Fragrant.

A woman who has travelled in lndn
suggests that one of the daintlest ways
of keeping room cool in summer S
by hanging curtains of an eastern
grass which is now procurable mere III

drenched in water The air passing
through the moist grass is not Only
cooled but also slightly perfumed VIII

refreshing. In lieu of the grass q

NO DEvLIN DEAL.
Chances of the Holding Company Are
Small Indeed.

Principle creditors of the Devlin es-
tate have given up hope that the pro-
posed holding corporation can be sue
cessfully consummated. The differ
ences which exist between the various
creditors are too great to be bridged
and the final report which will be sub
mitted to the creditors committee on
May 1 at Kansas City is expected Will
be adverse-adverse to the extent that
the required so per cent of the credi-
tors viii not acquiesce to the plan.
The lack of a guarantee that by ex-
changing their positions as secured
creditors to corporate members of the
holding company they won't surrender
the security of their situation as credi-
tors with safe collateral operates
against the plan.
There appear to be irreconcilable diff
ferences between the creditors said
James T. Bradley, receiver of the First
National, who promulgated the plan
adopted by the creditors committee.
1.-The committee cannot guarantee to
them that they will have as much in
the shape of collateral as they did be-
fore entrance into the proposed holding
company and they hesitate as a result.

Roosevelt. The years of his presidency
have been a period of the most IN
bounded prosperity this country has
ever known, but out of these prosper
Gus times have grown the gigantic ac-
CumulatiOns of wealth and business
energy properly known as trusts. We
believe that unless checked these enor-
nous financial growths may some day
threaten the stability of the nation and
it is to Theodore Roosevelt that the
people look for the Inauguration of a
policy of correction and prevention of
any further concentration of the coun-
trys wealth
we indorse the administration of
Governor E. w. Hoch and thank him
for his generous treatment of Leaven-
worth men and matters.
I'VE commend Senator Long and the
entire Kansas delegation in congress,
and express the desire of the Republi-
cans of LeayenWOrth county that our
representatives at Washington assist
in the enactment of such laws for rail-
road rate regulation as will give the
government absolute power to protect
the people from the rapacious greed of
the transportation corporations.
We join with many other Kansas
counties which have already expressed
a state board of railroad commission
ers which shall represent the people of
Kansas and not the railroads, and we
furthermore object to the interference
sasAand the subsidization of daily news
papers.
For the first time in more than a
decade, Leavenworth now presents to
the Republicans of Kansas q candi-
date for state Office. Year after year
this county has sent delegations to the
Republican state conventions which
have unselfshly and without return as
sisted our friends in other counties all
over Kansas. and We now ask the Re
publicans CT the state to join with US
in the nomination of Frank J. Ryan of
Leavenworth for secretary of state;
and furthermore, be it
Resolved. That the delegates sent
from this county to the state convention

Admission to the Republican state

4ributed by the members Of the Repub-
ilican state central committee and the
Topeka Commercial club.
This announcement was made Thurs
day BY Clyde Miller, secretary Of the
bRepublican committee who was here
TO make arrangements for the conven-
ton. He said:
Tickets for the convention are now
being printed. Every ticket will have
coupon emitting the holder to seat.
When a person gets a seat. he is en-
titled to come and take that seat at any
time during the day. No one else can
hold down seat This is the plan
adopted at the national conventions
land I think it will work well here at
Topeka I am of the opinion. however,
that everyone who desires to watch the
proceedings Of the convention can be
accommodated. This big auditorium is
the best place for a convention in the
state, and We have lots Of room

floor will be needed for the delegates.
we will be able to put in some outsiders
on this floor. The entire balcony viii
then be reserved for spectators.
Il came up here to see what arrange
rments were being made for the co1ven-
'tion. I found that the Commercial club
was taking care of the thing in good
shape. The club has engaged Marshall's
band and the band and the big pipe
organ will furnish all the music we
need. Things are all in good shape for
the convention, and I think it will not
be necessary for me to return to To-
lpeka until a day or two before the date
of the convention"

The system of giving seat checks to
spectators a the convention is a new
one Usually the secretary has simply
handed out tickets for general adnis-
sion. and it has been scramble for
seats. In addition to giving a bunch
OF tickets to each member of the state
central committee, the state officers
and candidates for state office will have
some for disposal. There is no admis-
sion fee: it is simply a question of get
ting next to man who has tickets to
give away.
One of the men who keep close track
OF the political situation in the state
made the prediction yesterday that "
r. Stubs viii have no candidate for
the job Of chairman of the state con-
vention
Il give Stubs credit for a good deal
OF political horse sense said this man
He is learning some things about
practical politics which he didn't use
20 know. I am inclined to believe that
there will be no candidate for chairman
of the convention who will be recogniz-
ed as the Stubs candidate If the
railroad crowd can get any satisfac-
ton out Of the election of chairman of
the convention without opposition they
viii be allowed that satisfaction. The
fight between the railroad and anti
railroad factions viii be souarelv on
the lieutenant governor issue.
TT is my idea that Nj. Stubbs sees
the danger of taking too prominent a
part in this convention He viii sidestaD
responsibility for everything DossibIa
and try to check it up TO the DELEGATES
