Advertiser Bureau.

Selma, AprH E. :. All former Selmians who were res jdents of San Francisco at the time of the fire and earthquake have been heard from. All of them escaped with their lives but fire proved most disas- trous to them and they all lost their worldly goods. When the terrible and fire was learned here there was considerable uneasiness felt for former citizens by their friends and relatives and many telegrams were forwarded.
 The last few days there have been received messages from all of them. These messages conveyed meagre in- formation but they were most welcome and relieved the anxiety of their many friends. Among the last to be heard from was A. M. Davidson, and yester- day his brother R. J. Davidson, recefv- ed word that he had escaped unhurt, but that he had lost everything.
 This morning Mrs M. M. Force, post master of the city, received message from her daughter. Mrs. Dunlap, who is a resident of San Francisco. The message was written on a scrap or brown wrapping paper and had no stamp on it, but it had been consigned to the care of the mails and came through. It brought the intelligence to Mrs. Dunlap's mother that she was getting along as we'll as could be ex- pected under the circumstances.

When q little human machine Cor a large One) goes wrong, nothing is so important as the selection of food to bring it around again.
 My little baby boy fifteen months old had pneumonia. then came brain fever, and no sooner had he got over these than he began to cut teeth and. being so weak. he was frequently thrown into convulsions,' says a Col orado mother.
 ''I decided a change might help. SD took him to Kansas City for a visit. When we got there he was so very weak when he would cry he would sink away and seemed like he would die.
 When I reached my sisters home she said Immediately that We must feed him Grape-Nuts and. although I had never used the food. we got some and for a few days gave him just the juice of Grape Nuts and milk He got stronger so quickly We were soon feed ing him the Grape Nuts itself and in a wonderfully short time he fattened right up and became strong and we'll
 That showed me something worth knowing and. when later on my girl came, l raised her on Grape Nuts and she is q strong healthy baby and has been. You will see from the little pho tograph l send you what a strong chubby youngster the boy is now. but he didn't look anything like that before We found this nourishinG food.

THE FALL OF JENKINS.

William Allen White the Kansas edi- tor. in telling of the troubles of the city editor in drilling green reporters. was reminded of an amusing case that came within his own observation.
 There is one thing you must re- member above everything else. said the city editor of a St. Louis paper to a new reporter. and that is: tell in the first few lines what your story is about in other words give the substance at once. Then follow with a recital Of the facts. and conclude with interviews with the people concerned. That is the only orderly way of writing your stCr.-
 The new man gave close attention to this lesson. the result oi which was that he handed in that night a. news item reading as follows:
 Rufus Jenkins. a carpenter, slipped and feI in Vine street yesterday and sprained his ankle badly. MT. Jenkins was walking along Vine street when suddenly his feet slipped from under him and he fell spraining one of his ankles.
 When seen by a reporter. he said I was walking along Vine street when in some way my feet slipped from un- der me. and I tell heavily to the side walk. spraining one or my ankles.
 MT. Frank Fuller said. I was walk ing behind MT. Jenkins on Vine street when ] saw him sip and fall 10 the sidewalk. When l assisted him to rise he told me that he had sprained one of his ankles
 pr. Thos. Rich. who attended Mr- Jenkins. said; MT. Jenkins has @ bad ly sprained ankle. due to fall in Vine street. He will be laid up for some time
 MT Jenkins could not attend last nights meeting of the carpenters union. The president, in eonvenius the meeting expressed regrets that MT. Jenkins could not attend. as he had slipped and fallen in Vine street. spraining one of his ankles. Harper $ ! Weekly.

A LEGEND OF THE zULUs.
How They Became New Nation in a
 New Country.

The Zulus account for their origin by a story of a talking elephant who fed upon children. He met woman laden with an ax and bundle of fagOts, ac- companied by her child.
 Seeing the elephant. she guessed his intention, and pleaded: Spare my child. O elephant The elephant re- fused. Then, said the mother. if this evil must happen. swallow me, too. O elephant" So the elephant swallowed mother and child and they found them selves with all the other children who were eaten previous y.
 By and by the child grew hungry. and the mother lit a fire with her flag ots. She then. with her aX, cut away the elephants flesh, cooked it. and they al ate. As the fire burned it's great heat filled the elephant with pain. and he ran, and ran. and ran til they felt the thunder of his hoofs racing over hill and valley
 At length, exhausted, he dropped down dead. Using her ax. the mother chopped until she made an opening in the elephants side. After this. they crept out. and became a new nation in new country.-Country Gentleman.
