STRANGE Story-But True,

F. L. Vandegrift has a new story.
1t is illustrative of the marvellous fe-
cundity of the English sparrow.

Van, in recounting his experience.

Schools Spreading In China.

A few years ago the foreign mis-
sionary schools were practically the
only institutions in Foochow offering
ern learning. There are now at least
80 native schools fashioned after the
foreign model. Foochow is city of
100000 inhabitants, and these schools
embrace about 1000 students. Post
ers placarded all over the city adver-
tise the opening of various modern
schools, which are springing up In
every nook and corner of the place.
Scarcely week passes without the
announcement of the opening of q
nav school.

GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP.
No Medicine so Beneficial to Brain
and Nerves.

Lying awake nights makes it hard
to keep awake and do things in day
time. To take "tonics and stimU
lants" under such circumstances is
like setting the house on fire to see
If you can put it out.
The right kind of food promotes re-
freshing sleep at night and a wide
awake individual during the day.
A lady changed from her old way of
eating, to Grape-Nuts, and says:
For about three years l had been
a great sufferer from Indigestion.
After trying several kinds of medi-
cine, the doctor would ask me to drop
off potatoes, then meat, and so on,
but in few days that craving, gnaw-
ing feeling would start up. and l
would vomit everything l ate and
drank.
when l started on Grape-Nuts,
vomiting stopped, and the bloatihs
feeling which was SO distressing dis
appeared entirely.
MY mother was very much both
cred with diarrhea before commenc'
ing the Grape-Nuts, because ner stoH-
ach was so weak she could not digest
her food. Since using Grape-Nuts she
is well, and says she don't think she
could live without it.
ut is great brain restorer and
nerve builder, for l can sleep as sound
and undisturbed after a supper Of
Grape-Nuts as in the old days when
could not realize what they meant
by bad stomach" There is no
medicine so beneficial to nerves and
brain as a good nights sleep. such as
you can enjoy after eating Grape
Nuts"

Asylum for Old Horses.

Los Angeles, Gait has remained
for the women OF this city to raise
money to provide a poorhouse for
aged and dishgured horses. The wo-
men have organized themselves I'M
der the name of the ladies' auxiliary
of the Society for the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Animals. A large amount
of money has been raised, and more
will be secured through series of
bazars. Thus the society will con
tribute toward the "Old Horses

the city. Animals that are so aged
and decrepit that they should not be
compelled to work will be purchased

SHIP DRIFTED 5000 MILES.
Derelict Deering Makes This Dis
lance in 40 Days.

Norfolk, Va.-It is not surprising in
maritime circles that the derelict
schooner John S. Deering should have
drifted to a point 1000 miles west
of Queenstown, Ireland, where she
has been reported by the White Star
liner Cevic.
The Deering was abandoned in a
waterlogged condition off Cape Hat.
teras 140 days ago. Since then she
has drifted 5000 miles, and many a
fine vessel has come within an ace OF
colliding with the obstruction at
night, which would have meant disas-
ter to the vessel striking the aban-
doned craft.
Ship men the world over have heard
of the wreck of the Deering; how she
fought fine fight against the ele-
ments off the treacherous Carolina
coast; how the crew held out against
hope of being rescued and how finally
they were taken off after suffering un-
told agonies. The Deering, lumber
laden. was then left to her fate.
Like many of her class, the wreck
has drifted with wind and tide and
nas been buffeted at the will of Bo-
reas and Neptune. Capt Clarke, OF
the Cevic, reports that the derelict
was low in the water with only the
stumps of the fore and mainmast
standing. The wreck is directly in
the track CT navigation. With lumbe.
in her the Deering will drift for an
indefinite period, unless destroyed.

ever attempted. These two men pro
pose to literally ride all over the face
OF earth on bicycles.
Time is no object IL this long jour

than three years will be necessary.
The first stage of cycling will be

expect to tour England and Scotland,
crossing to Ireland and proceeding

Will sail for the continent. Belgium,
Holland, Denmark and Sweden will
be the first countries visited in the or

will ride toward St Petersburg, and
from there they will turn southwark
and pass through Germany. France
and Spain. They expect to celebrate
New Years Day of 1907 somewhere In
the northern part of Africa and if
revolutionary troubles do not inter
fere will visit Tripoli, Algeria and Mo
rocco.
That the journey will be no child's
play is evidenced by the itinerary
from Morocco. From here they will
ride over the shifting sands of the
great Sahara desert to Timbuctoo.

IMPORTANT TO CORVALLIS.
Profit by This and Find Safeguard
Az ms. Many Ills.

Nothing is more important to Corvallis
than the good health of her people. How
can they fill their place in this busy
town unless they are we'll?
No one trouble is responsible for more
nervous ills, sleeplessness, general debil-
Try. weakness, back:aches, rheumatic
pains, even ill-temper and peevishness,
than indigestion.
Fortunately a combination of rene
dies, called Mi-o-na stomach tablets, has
been discovered that absolutely cures in
digestion and restores to health and
strength the whole digestive system. The
use of Mi-o-na is a safeguard against ma
ny ills it acts directly upon the gastric
glands, restores perfect action to the di-
gestive organs, aids the assimilation of
food, and so strengthens the whole di-
gestive system that you can eat anything
at any time without fear of indigestion.
Just one hule tablet out of 50 cent
box of Mi-o-na before meals for a few
days, and you will soon regain perfect
health snd strength, and be able to eat
anything digestlble without fear of stom-
ach difficulties.
So reliable is Mi-o-na in curing all
forms of stomach weakness and troubles
that Graham & Wells give signed guar
antee tha The remedy will cost nothing
unless it cures. Mi-o-na sells for 50 cents
and is invaluable to any one who suffers
with indigestion, nervousness or week
stom ach.

OYSTER BAY, July 4.-Despite
threatening skies and damp
grounds the presidents neighbors
celebrated independence day at
Oyster Grove, which is not grove
at all, but vacant lot.
Roosevelt arrived early and was
loudly applauded. The children
sang Star Spangled Banner, after
which the president was introduced
by General Beelman. Roosevelt
made characteristic patriotic ad.
dress to the accompaniment of con-
slant applause.
A number of high government Of
ficials attended the celebration,
which took the form of a picnic
after the speechmaking ended.
In the midst Of the presidents

ing rain. Those on the edge of the
crowd sought shelter. The presi-
dent Interrupted his remarks to say
he felt sorry for the women and
children, but had no sympathy for
the men who ran away.
Some one raised an umbrella
over his head. Roosevelt thanked
them and said he didn't want it,
continuing his address with the
rain beating down on his bare head.
He talked against corporation In

responsibility.
