The present offices of the court house are not sufficiently large for the officers. The vaults. used to hold records which are priceless, are unsafe The vault in the circuit clerks office is not fire proof in any sense. The vault in the county clerks office is better and more modern, but is very doubtful as to it's security. Both vaults are too small for the present records. In the county clerk office the vault is just sufficient to hold the tax books. all valuable papers being outside the vault in small wooden boxes, alike vulnerable to fire and theft.

BACK TO PULPIT.
What Food Did for Clergyman.

A minister of Elizabethtown tells how Grape-Nuts food brought him back to his pulpit: Some 5 years ago had an attack of what seemed 10 be La Grippe which left me in com- plete state cf collapse and l suffered for some time with nervous prostra- tion. My appetite failed, lost flesh till I was a mere skeleton. life was a burden to me. lost interest in every thing and almost in everybody save my precious wife.
 Then on the recommendation of some friends l began to use Grape Nuts food. At that time l was a mis- erable skeleton. without appetite and hardly able to walk across the room; had ugly dreams at night, no dsposi- tion to entertain or be entertained and began to shun society.
 ''I finally gave up the regular minis try. indeed l could not collect my thoughts on any subject, and became almost a hermit. After 1 had been using the Grape-Nuts food for short time I discovered that l was taking on new life and my appetite began to improve; l began to sleep better and nay weight increased steadily; had lost some 30 pounds, but under the new food regime I have regained al- most my former weight and have greatly improved in every way.
 T feel that I owe much to Grape Nuts and can truly recommend the food to all who require powerful re- building agent. delicious 10 taste and always welcome"
 Name given by Postum Go, 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 2kgs.

FIRE THE BEST FILTER.
There Is Only One Way to Do It.

All this talk about the need of fl- ters. about people dying for lack Of filtered water. amuses me" said a chemist. For filtered water isn't necessarily pure water. Boiled water is 100 times better.
 "A filter, you see. does not free water from things dissolved in 1t, but only from things floating in 1t For instance. if you mix quart of whisky in a gallon of water and then filter the mixture. 1t will come out color. less. the floating color particles hay ing been left behind, but this color Lass fluid will be quite as capable of Intoxicating you now as 1t was before. for none of its dissolved alcohol will have disappeared.
 "So with water that Is polluted with sewage. All the undissolved portions of the sewage are removed by filtra- tion. and the water Is left clear, taste less and odorless: but the dissolved sewage is still present, and in it may Turk billions of typhoid germs.
 Let those who complain about the lack of filters just turn in and boil their water. A cents worth of fire will purify gallon of water better than s10o0o.0o Alter plant could do it"
