no CHINESE PERIL HERE.

Now. about the Chinese exclusion. The mum
ber Of Chinese now IN the country is. II re-
member Alright some sixty or seventy thousand
So far from there being a great influx OF The
Chinese the fact is that the number has steadily
decreased. There are fewer Chinese than there
were ten years ago fewer than there were
twenty wears ago. fewer than there were thirr-
wears ago. UnQuesttOnably, some scores OF cases
occur each wear where Chinese laborers get il
either by being smuggled over the Mexican and
Canadian borders or by coming IN under false
certificates, but the steps that we have taken.
The changes in the COnsuls that have been made
within the last faw years IN the Orient and the
EFFORT 10 conduct examinations in China before
the immigrants are allowed 10 come here are
materially reducing even the small number %
cases that do occur.
But even as IL Is. the number OF these cases
IS insgnihcant. There Is no appreciaole influx
OF Chinese laborers. and there is not the slight

THE POST DISCOVERY
A Revelation in Human Food.

Previous to the discovery Of the Post
process Of changing the starchy part
Of wheat and barley into form of
sugar. many people suffered from what
IS known rs starch indigestion.
That was shown by gas and all sorts
of stomach and bowel trouble (some-
times ending in appendicitis) brought
on by the undigested starch in wheat,
oats. white bread. cake, puddlngs. etc,
etc.
Nature ultimately Furnishes anyone
who continually takes some medicine or
drug 10 smooth over OF nullify bad con-
ditions of the body. The only sale way
to cure such is TO correct or remove
the cause. Therefore. 1t was plain TO Mr..
Post in working out his discovery. that
people who show some weakness IN Gi-
gesting the starchy part of food (Which
is much the largest part of all We eaO.
must be helped by having the starch di-
gested or transformed before being eaten.
And OF course. the safest and tTueSt
way TO do this would be TO initiate ma
ture and avoid all chemicals or outside
and unnatural things. The body digests
the starchy food by the following proc
ess: first. the moisture or juices OF the
mouth and stomach, then warmth or
mild heat. which grows or develops
diastase from the grain. Time Is also
an important element. and when all
work together and the human organs
operate properly. the starch is slowly
turned into a form of sugar, as II must
be before the blood viii absorb II and
carry the needed energy 10 different
parts of the body. OF course. II the
body fails 10 do its work perfectly
trouble sets in.
So in the making of the famous food
ape-NutS-moiSture. warmth. and time
are the only things used 70 turn starch
into sugar. thus initiating nature and
keeping the human food in original
purity. free from outside things and Just
as Mother Nature intends II shall be
kept for advantageous use by her chill
dren- The food Is fully cooked at the
factories. and is crisp and delicious with
a little thick cream poured over
IT can be sOftened for people with
weak teeth. but is most valuable to
others wnsss II must be energeticalIv
chewed. thus bringing down the saliva
from the gums TO go TO the stomach and
help digest the entire meal. besides the
use of the teeth strengthens and nra-
serves them. Nature blesseS the parts of
the body that are used and not abused
GraPe-Nuts food brings peace health
and comfort, when people are in despair
from any one of the ails resulting from
undigested food.

VIOLENCE CONTINUES
Eight Cases Have Been Reported With- in a Hundred Miles of PiHsbuIg
 Motorman Beaten and
 Thrown From His Car
RAZOR AND REVOLVER FIGHT

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov 13-Almost simultaneously with the numerous burglaries and cases of highway rob- bery in this city, comes reports iron throughout Allegheny and adjoining counties of like crimes accompanie
 by violence. In dispatches to the As sociated Press last night, no less than eight such cases were reported with in a hundred miles of Pittsburg. At Monaco, Pa, J. w. Feegman, motor man on a street, was beaten with a switch bar and then from his car by two men who were later arrested and locked up.
 From McKeesport comes the story of the killing of Samuel Carter who was shot by William Taylor. The men had quarreled over a woman and Carter is alleged to have cut Taylor with razor. Taylor, it is said, then secured revolver and followed Car ter to his home where he shot him. Taylor has not yet been arrested.
 At Monongahela, Michael Alonzo, an Italian boarding house keeper, was robbed by a negro at the point of gun, while at Butler, s. T. Led better, laborer, was assaulted and robbed and his supposed lifeless body was thrown into vacant lot When found Ledbetter was in dying con- dition from exposure and he is not expected to live There is no clue for the police on either of these cases.
 Ray Litzinger, druggist of Mones- sen, was attacked by a burglar in his home on Sunday night and in the struggle was cut about the arm and fact by a knife in the hands of his assailant. Almost at the same time the house of Frank Shutterly, a bor- ough official, was entered and after the lower rooms had been ransasked the burglar went up stairs and tried to remove diamond ring from the finger of Earl Shutterly, a son. Young Shutterly awoke and tried to clinch with the intruder, who fled. Lying partly submerged in the wa ters of the Monongahela river. his throat cut from ear to ear, the body of Antonio Patio. 45 years of age, was found by train crew on the Monongahelia railroad near Connells- vile. A jury has returned a verdict of murder.
 From Newcastle and Finleyville, Pa come reports of unconscious men found along railroad tracks. At the former place a man was found with a fractured skull beneath a trestle. He was taken to Youngstown. O., where he is in hospital. The Fin leyyille case was a dead body found along the Baltimore & Ohio tracks. There were no marks of identifiaca- tion. The body was taken to Wash ington, Pa.
 In line with steps taken by the Pittsburg city authorities the officials of neighboring boroughs began last night to take precautions against any epidemic of crime" in their bailiwicks. At Sewickley last night an ordinance was passed by the local council increasing the police force, and calling upon the police to appre- hend all suspicious characters. The borough council of Sharpsburg em- the police commission to employ as many additional men as deemed necessary.
