MEMORIES OF THE PAST.
The Day Intended for Appropriate
Commemoration of the Deeds
of Heroes,

Memorial day was founded that
there might be few hours in each
year set aside for the appropriate
commemoration of the deeds of men
who had been killed while serving the
country in the army or navy or who
had died since having so served. For
a number of years it was generally
and suitably observed. Then in some
places 1t ceased to be observed at all.
In many it was given up to bicycle
and horse racing and other sports and
festivities.
Diversions of this kind have been
widely and properly protested against
as dissertations of the day. The pro-
tests seem to have had some effect,
for observance of the occasion prom
ises to be not only more general this
year than usual but also more apnro.
pirate.
Contemplation OF the courageous and
self-sacrificing patriotism exhibited by
past generations is to little purpose
II 1t do not imbue their successors
with purpose to emulate them.
The men of to-day have confronting
them questions almost as difficult as
any which have yet been dealt with.
and the best way the sons can show
their appreciation of what the fathers
accomplished is by resolving to go
about their work as citizens with the
same courage and in the same spirit
as their fathers went about theirs.-

Keep Alive Love for Flag.

AS each year rolls around some patri-
otic city is asked to welcome the G. A.
r. In a grand runeion. striving to out
do some other city, which with out
stretched arms has welcomed the G. A.
R. in a grand reunion striving to out
to life dormant spirit of devotion to
the old flag and resolve that this
union of states will never be dissolved.
Without the G. A. r. to refresh the
memory of the people of this country.
they would be apt to forget the great
sacrifice this nation suffered that this
union should not be dissolved.
Again there is another wing to the
G. A. r., the Sons of Veterans. organ
lied TO go hand in hand with the G.
A r. to perpetuate their memory for
generations to come. to keep alive the
love for the old flag, as the strength
of the nation depends on the love of its
people to defend it in time of danger.

BREAD DYSPEPSIA.
The Digesting Element Left Out.

The Digesting Element Left Out.
Bread dyspepsia is common. 1t af-
fects the bowels because white bread is
nearly all starch, and starch is digested
in the intestines, not In the stomach
proper.
Up under the shell of the wheat berry
nature has provided curious deposit
which is turned into diastase when 1t is
subjected to the saliva and to the PAN
create juices in the human intestines.
This diastase is absolutely necessary
&c digest starch and turn it into grape
sugar, which is the next form; but that
part OF the wheat berry makes dark
flour, and the modern miller cannot
readily sell dark flour, SO natures val
liable digester is thrown out and the
human system must handle the starch
as best it can. without the help that ma
ture intended.
Small wonder that appendicitis, peri
tonitis, constipation aud all sorts of
trouble exist when we go so contrary
to natures law. The food experts thar
perfc rted Grape-Nuts Food. knowing
these facts, made use In their expert
ments of the entire wheat and barley.
including all the parts, and subjected
them to moisture and long continued
warmth, which allows time and the
proper conditions for developing the
diastase, outside of the human body.
In this way the starchy part is trans
formed into grape-suga in a perfect
ly natural manner. without the use OF
chemicals or any outside ingredients.
The little sparkling crystals of grape
sugar can be seen on the pieces of
Grape Nuts. This food therefore is
naturally pre-digested and its use in
place of bread will quickly correct the
troubles that have been brought about
by the too free use of starch in the
food, and that is very common in the
human race to-day.
The eeffct of eating Grape Nuts ten
days or two weeks and the discontin
uance of ordinary white bread is very
marked The user will gain rapidly In
strength and physical and mental

sIMPLoN TUNNEL OPENED
Under the Alps From Switzerland to
italy,

Domodossola. Italy.-The Simplon
tunnel was inauSurated here Saturday
by King Victor Emmanuel, who left
here at 10: So a. m. for Brique, on the
Swiss side of the mountain. The royal
train passed through the twelve
miles of tunnel drawn by steam en-
gine, the electric motors not being
ready. On reaching the middle of the
tunnel, at a height of 1900 feet above
the sea level, the King was heard to
eNclaim:
..It is a Cyclopic work, the result of
n century of study, seven years of
work and the expenditure of nearly
$15.000,000."
At Brique the King. who was ac
companied by Premier Sonnini, the
minister of public works, and large
number of other officials, was received
by the President of the Swiss Republic
and the members of the Federal Coun-
ell, the National Council and the Coun
ell of State. and other officials to the
number of about 500. IN the speeches
which followed the meeting of the
King and the President much satisfac-
tion was expressed al the opening of
the tunnel. which was completed as far
as piercing the mountain was con
cerned last February.

THE SIMPLE LIFE.
How It Became Artificial Among
Americans.


The great trouble with America is
that she falls upon any cure as hys-
terically and theoretically MS she does
upon the drug inducing her disease.
We so mad over the simple life. We
sit on a green divan and babble OF
green fields With a Vatican fan in
one hand and a glass in the other. we
tell each other what splendid thing
it is to so a-shepherding, to dwell
close to the earth, to live a sweet,
natural life. We even hire men and
women to come and talk to us about
these things, to chant to us, to lecture
us about them. Sometimes we even
try to practice, hurriedly and hyster-
ically, some of these things which we
have in pure self-hypnosis persuaded
ourselves that. we ought to like. We
do no great good by that. We effect
nothing when we carry our drug habit
into the sanatorium of the woods and
fields; we are still insane. We get no
good of the wilderness when we insist
that 1t be a wilderness furnished with
hot and cold baths, the railroad and
the telegraph. Our trouble is that we
will not let CO. We do moi turn
loose" as they say on the plains

Among this class the symptoms OF
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part OF the
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wctting OF the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there nre faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite. until life is burden.
All these symptoms point to de-

which can be easily and promptly
cared by Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vcgeta-
bic Compound.
Miss Abby Il. Earrows. Jacksonville.
Athens Co., Ohio. tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkhnm -

tends cordial invitation to correspond
with her. She is dnughter-in-law of
Lydia T.. Pinkhan and for twenty five
years has been advising sick women
free of charge. Her long record of
success in treating womans ills makes
her letters of advice of untold value to
every ailing working girl. Address,

The Grand Army OF the Republic has
been one of the greatest conservators OF
peace because its members realize more
fully than any one else could the cost
of war both in blood and treasure. The
wounds and disease contracted by them
in the civil war are ever present re-
minders of it's cost. They would have
been ready to have sacrificed much be-
fore engaging In such another struggle.
They have been the leaders of all
movements tending to higher patri-

country. They have fostered and
encouraged every effort looking to
more loyal citizenship. They have
taught the world lesson in fra.
ternity extending not only to their
own members, but to the men of the

believe they have done and are doing
more to reunite the two sections of our
country as patriotic American citizens
