10 Got From Under.

The veteran telegraph operator al
length took part in the general re-
counting Of incidents and adventures
by his fellow craftsmen.
"Out in California several years
ago." he said. 81 was at the key in the
only telegraph Office in a rapidly rising
town. Early one morning l received
a messag. addressed to the cashier OF
the local bank from its president, to
the effect that his plan had failed and
to close the banks doors and suspend
payments until further notice. | had
$1,000 in that bank, the savings of
eleven years. 1t was my duty to send
the message and see my savings van.

was not my duty to forward the mes

had was delivering a dispatch and
wouldn't be lack for at least an hour.
So, with a clear conscience, l slipped
on my coat, rushed to the bank and
withdrew my deposit. An hour later
the crash came, but was not under.

A WELL SPREAD TABLE.
And the Man "FeI Out" With II

And the Man "FeIl Out" With It.
A manufacturer in Missouri says
/ he started out as young man with
almost perfect health. but that, by
the time I was "a my digestive ap-
paratus was so completely wrecked
as to make my life a positive burden.
Il was neither a hard dTinker nor
J an inveterate user of tobacco-my
condition could not be charged up to
these things.

by a course Of living common among
those who Indulge in unwisely select
ed food and deny their appetites moth
ing, And so years passed, during
which every sort of fOoi seemed to do
just the opposite of what it should
have done with me. A Widespread
table was offensive to me. The sight
or smell OF food made me jeathly sick.
In brief, l had dyspepsia in It's worst
form, and spent MANY a hard-earned
dollar for remedies which did me no
good whatever.
This was my condition when a
friend insisted that I SHOULD try Grape
Nuts food, and to please him / con-
scented, expecting to derive no more
benefit or pleasure from it than / had
from other prepared foods that had
tried. But / was most happily disap-
pointed.

bones. My dyspepsia is gone-the
memory Of a terrible nightmare.
Il am we'll now-seems like l can
not be ill-and Grape Nuts is still

queer Beliefs Of People of Ancient

Queer Beliefs Of People of Ancient
Egypt Regarding Puss.
The inhabitants Of ancient Egypt are
believed to have been the first people
to attempt to domesticate the wild spe-
cies Of felinae now represented by the
common house cat. This belief is based
upon the fact that sculptured repre-
sensations of such animals are found
1pon their monuments Of the year
1000 B. c., more than 1900 years be-
fore they appear on European monu-
ments. An Egyptian tomb Of the year
1900 3. @. is the first to show a sculp-
tured representation Of the cat as a
domesticated animal, those Of the
greater. age first mentioned probably
representing the creature, IN its wild
state. In the relief sketch Of the date
last mentioned. 1900 B. G., it is unmis-
takably a pet, being shown as seated
beneath a chair. The Egyptians of
that age mummified dead cats just as
they did human beings and in many
instances entombed hundreds of thou
sands of them in a single pyramid or
pit. Bubastis was the Egyptian cat
goddess and was always represented
as having a cats head. Among that
queer people puss was regarded as an
emblem Of the sun, its eyes being sup
posed to vary in color and in the size
Of their pupils with the progress Of
that luminary across the heavens.
Herodotus tells us that when an
Egyptian cat died a natural death its
owner went into mourning and shaved
of his eyebrows.

Oranges came originally from India,
having been carried westward by the
Arabs. The fruit crossed from Africa
to Spain with Mohammedanism, while
probably the crusaders are to be thank.
ed for bringing it to Italy and western
Europe among their trophies Of the
east. The name is Arabic. "naranj,"
and Of eastern origin, though. the leg.
end that it comes from two words
meaning elephant" and "be ill.," be-
cause elephants ate oranges to make
themselves FIJI, is absurd. Probably in
FRENCH the initial ''n" is dropped OF
from naranji with the final M OF tho
indefinite article. just as IAN apron
represents "a napron, and the spelling
with an 20" points to false association
with 'or" (gold).

OUR ADVANCEMENT.

State Labor Commissioner |. Y.
Barton is authority for the state
ment that from six hundred TO seven
hundred new industries started in
this state the past two years. This
number includes mercantile. manu-
featuring and mining industries and
numerous other concerns. There
have been many new mines opened in
this period and the launching of new
mercantile and manufacturing ven
lures have kept pace with them in
THE wonderful development of the
state. These new enterprises are
scattered all over the state. but
Clarksburg has her full share of
them. The fact is that no section
has developed faster or in more sub
stantial manner. and it is a matter
OF infinite pride to know this fact
and fully appreciate it. The nat
ural resources and other advantages
are to large extent responsible for
this splendid advancement. but it
must be said in all truthfulness that
the energy, enterprise and business
zeal Of the people have aided mater
tally in bringing about this marvel
out development. Outside capital
has done its full share, too. In
truth outside capital has found
Clarksburg and Harrison county an
industrial mecca. and the welcome it
has received has been most hearty.
But aside from this home capital has
been shoulder to shoulder with that
coming from the outside and hand
in hand they have pushed matters to
a successful Issue. However, the adj
vancement made is verify only the
beginning Of great industrial and
commercial period not only in
Clarksburg. hut also all over West
Virginia, and il Is a proud thought
to entertain that West Virginia is
rapidly coming to thief ront as one
Of the greatest States of the Union.

for baseball organization here the
coming summer. The result was
that number Of persons agreed to
become members of the club and
there was very goodly sum sub

noon. Mr.. Welch left this morn
ing 10 attend the meeting. The
object Of the meeting is to form a
league Of several Pennsylvania and
West Virginia cities. To make the
movement as successful as it ought
to be still more members are essen
tial for the local club. The local or
ganization will he completed in the
near future, but before that occurs
it is hoped the membership will be
largely increased.
