( such as white bread, potatoes, rice,
| partly cooked cereals and such.
Starchy food is not digested in the
| upper stomach but passes on into the
duodenum, or lower stomach and in
testines, where, in a healthy individ-
ual, the transformation of the starch
into form of sugar is completed and
then the food absorbed by the blood.
But If the powers of digestion are
weakened, Il part of the starchy food
will lie in the warmth and moisture of
the body and decay, generating gases
and irritating the mucous surfaces I'M
til under such conditions the whole
lower part of the alimentary canal, in
GLIDING the colon and the appendix,
becomes involved. Disease sets up
and at times takes the form known as
appendicitis.
When the symptoms of the trouble
make their appearance, would it not
be good, practical common sense, to
discontinue the starchy food which is
causing the trouble and take food
in which the starch has been trans
formed into a form of sugar in the
process of manufacture?
This is identically the same form of
sugar found in the human body after
starch has been perfectly digested.
Now, human food is made up very
largely of starch and is required by
the body for energy and warmth.
Naturally, therefore, its use should be
continued, If possible, and for the rea-
sons given above II is made possible
in the manufacture of Grape-Nuts.
In connection with this change of
food to bring relief from physical dis
turbances, we have suggested washing
out the intestines to get rid of the i'm
mediate cause of the disturbance.
Naturally, there are cases where the
disease has lain dormant and the
abuse continued too long. until APP
parently only the knife will avail But
it is a well-established fact among the
best physicians who are acquainted
with the details above recited. that
preventative measures are far and
away the best
Are we to be condemned for suggest
ing way to prevent disease by fol-
lowing natural methods and for per-
fccting a food that contains no ''medi-
cine" and produces no medicinal eff
fects" but which has guided literally
thousands OF persons from sickness to
health? We have received during the
years past upwards Of $4,000 letters
from people who have been either
helped or made entirely well by fol-
lowing our suggestions, and they are
simple.

of the ailments common to some cof-
fee users quit it and take on Postum.

WHEN A "HUNcH" HELD GOOD.
Chinese Laundry Ticket Suggested a
Bet on ewing Ting"

Kay Spence, well-known horseman
of Mexico, Mo-, won $1,000 at the
Louisville, KY, race meeting short
time ago as the result of "hunch."
Mr. Spence has a large breeding
stable of runners" near Mexico, and
attends all the big racing events in
the country Not long since he was
in Louisville and entered the betting
ring to see what odds were being Of
fered on the various entries. He
found that Joaquin was the favorite
at even money, and pulled his wallet
from his pocket, intending to bet on
that horse. His attention was at
tracted by something that fell from
his wallet to the ground, and he stoop-
ed and picked it up. 1t was Chi
nese laundry ticket, He looked at
the books" again and found that there
was an entry with a Chinese name.
Wing Ting, at ten to one. That set
tied it. for he considered he had re-
ceived a "hunch" that could not be
overlooked. Wing Ting won handily.
Needless to say, those who backed the
favorite considered Spence the sew

BeIIinq a Rat.

You have probably read or heard
that the best way to rid a house OF
rats is to catch one and fasten a bell
about its neck A boy in Delaware
tried the experiment two months ago
He was badly bitten in making the
bell fast, but he turned the rat loose
and expected the tinkling of that bell
would have great results 1t did have.
In the first place, the rat who wore 1t
was constantly on the move all night
and the tinkling bell kept the family
awake, and in the next the SOUNDS
brought scores of new rats TO the
house. Instead of being afraid Of the
bell, they we're charmed with the mu-
sic. Had the boy tied a harmonica
to another rats tail, the rodents would
have had a dance every night

lous than any comment of ours coulC
make 1t.
Does Golfers expect to regain any
self-inflicted loss of prestige by de
monstrating thru suits for damages
that it can be more artful in evading
liability for libels than the humble
but resentful victims of it's defamation
or does it hope for starting campaign
of libel suits to silence the popular in
dignation. reproach and resentment
which it has aroused.
Golfers can not dodge this public
controversy by private law suits. II
can not postpone the public judgment
against it. That great jury, the Pub
lie, will hardly blame us for not wait
ing until we get petit jury in court
room. before denouncing this prod
isal detractor of institutions founded
and fostered either by individuals Oh
by the public, itself.
No announcements during our entire
business career were ever made
claiming medicinal effects" for either
Postum or Grape-Nuts. Medicinal eff

Thousands of visitors go thru our
entire works each month and see for
themselves that Grape-Nuts contains
absolutely nothing but wheat, barley
and n little salt; Postum absolutely
nothing but wheat and about ten per
cent of New Orleans Molasses. The

ments in a scientific manner to obtain
the best food value and flavor. re-

Now, when any publication goes far
enough out of its way to attack us be-
cause our advertising is medical" it

of ignorance or worse.

But to the man or woman who is
ailing. we have something to say as a
result of an unusually wide experience
in food and the result of proper feed

east of here The entire train. consisting
of a combination smoking and baggage

car of Robert ]. Finney, superintendent of
the Pittsburg division of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad left the rails and after
running 200 feet along the ties was thrown
into a ditch at the foot Of the mountain.

burned.
The engine driver was killed, the fireman
fatally injured and the baggagemaster, ex-
press messenger. conductor and six pas
sengers were seriously injured. About
thirty passengers were more or less cut
and bruised. Wylie Irwin of Pittsburg.
the engine driver, was caught under the
wrecked engine and burned to death be-
fore the eyes of the passengers. who were
poweress to liberate him.
The injured are: T. d. Frederick, Pitts

There were forty-one passengers on the
train including a party Of Baltimore and
Ohio railroad officials, who were on tour
of inspection. When the train was three
miles east of Indian Creek the engineer be-
gan to speed in an endeavor to make up
eighteen minutes lost early in the trip.
Suddenly the whole train swayed, and, with
much Earring and cracking. left the rails.
Fortunately the train took a course north
west from the track, and after running
over 300 feet along the ties plunged into
ditch at the foot, of the. mountain. The
four cars piled in q heap almost directly
over the engine. The passengers were
thrown and tossed about like packages.
!. Screaming and fighting desperately they
managed to break the windows of the cars
and gain places of safety just as all the
cars became ignited from the engine and
commenced to burn fierceiy. Within few
moments all had gotten out While they
stood about in a dazed condition, hardly
realizing their miraculous escape, they
were attracted by the cries of Irwin. the
engine driver. Several of the passengers
accompanied by Supt Finney and the other
railroad officials, ran to. the engine drivers
