Poor NourIshment In Grass.

Horses. under natural conditions, sleep much less than men and spend far more time every day in eating. There Is little nourishment in grass. in proportion to its bulk. and the horse Is forced to give so much time to eating that 1t would be ruinous to human industry if like conditions ex- isted among men.

Baseball as a Tonic.

There Is no subject talked so much about in this country as baseball. There is nothing that is so much read about. War extras in the days of the rebellion were not more eagerly snatched up than baseball of today. It is the daily diet of millions of peo- pie who think or talk about little else.

The Horse's ndIcap.

On a fair average. horses weigh about seven times as much as men. They can pull about seven times as much. under favorable conditions. On extremely soft ground they are not nearly so good, in proportion. at such tests of strength, because their feet are much smaller than mems. rela- lively to their weight.

 United States Senators.
 In the early history of our coun- try the United States senate was looked upon as the most august body of men in the world. To-day, owing to corrupt influences, and the grad ual deterioration of the quality of the members, the senate as a body has forfeited the confidence of the people. Most of it's members are in control of gigantic corporations and represent private interests rather than those of the public. These men are elected by our legislatures. The constitution should be amended, 1t seems to me, enabling the people to elect the United States senators in the same manner as our congress- men.
 l would like to say something in favor of electing the county commits sioners by the people; the abolition of the fee system in public affairs and the substitute therefor of stated salaries; more secret system of vot- ing, etc, but what 1 have said may be taken as indicative of my attitude to- ward all kindred measures.
 Should you favor me with your confidence can assure you that II would use my every endeavor to rep resent you honestly and well. The delegates on the inclosed ticket are favorable to my nomination.
 Yours sincerely,

INDIAN WEDDING IN COURT
Bride Pays the Fee When the Bride
groom Fails to Produce
the Cash.

Sioux Falls, S. D.-Capt. Seth Bull
lock, personalf friend of President Roose-
welt and United States marshal for
South Dakota, acted as master of cere-
monies at an Indian wedding.
The principals in the wedding were
David Charging, Sioux warrior be-
longing on the Pine Ridge reservation,
and Nellie Little Bird, belle of the
Pine Ridge reservation tribe of Sioux
Indians. The bride is not yet 16 years
of age, while the bridegroom has not
attained his majority. The ceremony
was performed in the federal courtroom
in this city at the conclusion of ses-
sion of court and is the only instance in
the history of South Dakota in which an
Indian couple was married in federal
courtroom. The ceremony was per-
formed by Judge Wheelock.
The bridegroom was financially en-
barrassed and the bride was required to
pay the fee charged for marriage Ii
cense. The other expenses of the we'd
ding were paid from a fund contributed
by witnesses attending United States
court.
A large number of the society women
of Sioux Falls were interested specta-
tors at the wedding.

INDICATES SIRE'S NAME.
Last of Bankers $7oo,ooo Debts
Paid Off in Ten Years by
Loyal Son.

Des Moines, Ia.-In vindication of his
fathers name James G. Whitney, of
Atlantic, completed liquidating an in
debtedness of 100000. His had been al
labor of love extending over period
of ten years.
During the financial stress of 1885
96 his father Franklin II. Whitney, be-
came a bankrupt and died, and the
Bank of Atlantic, which he owned, went
into the hands of receiver and the
100000 which has just been repaid TO
the creditors was realized by his good
management of the wrecked estate.
Franklin II. Whitney was the founder
of the city of Atlantic. He laid out the
town site and established the National
Bank Of Atlantic, which he subsequent
ly converted into a private institution.
He became a millionaire. Eventually
he speculated too heavily in Kansas
City and Birmingham (Ala.) real estate
and his bs5iness collapsed. The shock
killed him.
1t was not believed his estate would
pay so cents on the dollar. but his son
took solemn vow TO see that no cred
itor lost a cent. and he has kept his
word to the letter.

Rainfall and Tree Growth.

A report has recently been published
which shows how closely the growth
of trees is dependent upon rainfall. Not
only was this seen in the case of one
and two-year-old trees, but in an inves.
tigation extending over period Of
twelve years. during which time the
annual rings of growth were carefully
examined. With an annual precipita-
tion of from thirty to thirty-five inches
a width of ring was produced varying
from IL to .15 inch. If, on the other
hand. there was either an unusually
large or small rainfall in any given
year this was followed by CORE.

year.-Harper's Weekly.

UNIQUE DISCOVERY.
CEANcE FINDING OF POTASSIUM
SUBSTANCE ON SEAWEED.
California Chemist Picks Up Kelp
Containing Deposits Strong
in the Preservative
Element.

Los Angeles, Cal.-Upon the chance
which led chemist of an investiga-
tive turn of mind almost idly to an
alyZe small lump of sediment cling
ing to a floating bit of seaweed cast
up by the high tide on the beach at
San Diego, may hang the results of
the most important of the food supply
of the world
David Moore Balch is the chemists
name, and the discovery through an
experiment in his laboratory few
weeks ago may provide substitute
for the failing nitrate supply of the
saltpeter beds of Chile.
The aged savant happened to be
taking his early constitutional uron
The sand, following one of the early
equinoxial storms. At his fee. he no.
ticed mass of seaweed torn from It's
mooring upon the submerged rocks
and cast upon the shore.
Balch Immediately recognized the
weed as a species of kelp, broad leaf
fucoid seaweed. To it already had clus-
posits of what he naturally supposed
to be simple salt from the evaporated
sea water.
The deposits incrusted on the leaves
OF the kelp so attracted Balch that he
carried the seaweed back with him to
his laboratory. There to his utter
surprise, he discovered that in place
of the simple salt of sodium the sub
stance was in reality rich in potas-
sum.
But it remained for George H. May
nard, first vice president of the Amer
lean Institute of Mining Engineer
ing, to recognize the full commercial
value of the discovery.
Mr.. Maynard, who is we'll known in
Los Angeles, learned of Balch's dis
covery during a visit to Coronado.
Necessary steps were Immediately
taken to protect themselves in the
processes for the extraction of the val
liable salts and sulphates, and the
three associated themselves in a part
nership to exploit their valuable dis
covery.

TRANSFORMATIONS.
Curious Results When Coffee Drink
ing Is Abandoned.

1t is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the use of coffee as 1t is for
whisky or tobacco fiend to break Off,
except that the coffee user can quit cof-
fee and take up Postum Food Coffee
without any feeling OF loss of the
morning beverage, for when Postum is
we'll boiled and served with cream, 1t
is really better in point of flavor than
most OF the coffee served nowadays,
and to the taste of the connoisseur it
Is like the flavor of fine Java.
A great transformation takes place in
the body within ten days or two weeks
after coffee is left OFF and Postum Food
Coffee used, for the reason that the pol
son to the nerves has been discontinued
and In its place is taken liquid that
contains the most powerful elements Of
uourishment.
IL is easy to make this test and prove
these statements by changing from cof-
Zee to Postum Food Coffee.
There's a reason"
Gilpin observer., 1906-05-17
Worry a Disease.

Everyone knows innumerable rea.
sons why it is foolish to worry, the
chief one being perhaps that it is so
utterly useless, but science has added
a new reason which is worth consider
ing. 1t not only states that worry will
kill. but explains why it will kill.
Worry is disease of the brain, a dis
ease which destroys certain cells of the
brain. often beyond repair. Like an
enemy In the night, worry creeps upon
the brain and begins its sledge-hammer
process of destruction. The vitality of
the delicate organism is slowly de-
stroyed. Nature may repair the destruc-
tion if worry comes at intervals, but
worry is a habit and it's power grows
each time that it is allowed admit
tance.-The Housekeeper.
