visit of the Tonopah committee to
the northern camp. The visitors saw
the strike which was made on the
Rose Nash lease, for they ran into
the ore while they were there. Mr..

and the others were down in the

The find is valued at $500 ton, and

CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders in Health.

It is worth knowing that change
in food can cure dyspepsia. Il deem
it my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me of indigestion.
Il had been troubled with it for
years. until last year my doctor rec
commended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. 1 followed instruc-
tions and now am entirely well.
1.-THE whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial as
you see fit"
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food. is that 1t
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stomach
as the food she had been using: 1t also
contains the elements required for
building up the nervous system. II
that part of the human body is in per-
feet working order, there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-
sents the steam that drives the en-
gine.
When the nervous system is run
down, the machinery of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children as well as
adults. 1t is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

BETTER THAN THE CLOSET.
Good Method of Keeping Miseel.
Ianeous Useful Articles.

The kitchen closet, more than any
other In the house, especially IL 1t be
as roomy as kitchen closets should be-
becomes a sort of dumping ground for
many articles not properly having a
definite place anywhere set apart for
them, and yet seemingly too good to
be cast aside. In this class we find
the pasteboard box, from which the
caterers goods were removed, which
is perfectly free from any spot OF
grease and is just the ideal size for a
picnic lunch box. Then there are the
tin cracker boxes of various sizes and
shapes, which are so handy for hold
ing dried herbs. for taking a salad
preparation to a church supper, for
steaming or baking a pudding, and
similar purposes. There are the bot
ties of different sizes from which mus
tard, pickles, and other articles have
been taken and the cork of which wag
spoiled in opening. A person gets
laughed at for keeping such a collec.
tion, but it is the neighbor who throws
out her own boxes and bottles. and
smiles at the collection of her neigh
Dor who most frequently puts in the
plea for some article from the rather
composite aggregation. An excellent
way to keep these articles, and yet not
have them litter the pantry shelves,
IL there is any available storeroom In
the attic or basement, is to get several
large wooden boxes from the grocer
and put each class of good in box By
itself. The covers should be put on
closely SO that when box or bottle is
wanted for immediate use it will not
require washing or dusting. Such
collection is of almost untold value for
the comfort of the different members
of the household

PAUL HAD HIS OWN IDEA.
Fathers Explanation of Lightning Not
Satisfactory to Him.

Little Paul was four years old when
the western city in which he lived was
swept one night by terrible storm.
Wind. thunder and lightning played
havoc and, while other members of
the family were huddled in dark cor
ners. Paul watched the illumination of
tho sky with great delight The next
morning at breakfast he asked his
father what caused the streaks of fire
across the sky. and his father. with
great pains. essayed to explain. Paul
listened attentively and apparently
accepted what was told him, but, when
he found attention diverted from him
self. he leaned over to his aunt. who
sat beside him. and whispered:

RuiIdinu a Fire.

1t sounds unreasonable to say that
some persons do not know how to
build coal fire, and yet there are a
great many who cannot do so. In
variably the fire dies down and event
ually goes out. 1t is caused by i'm
proper draft in the stove. The wood
is thrown in lengthwise, coal thrown
on with little oil, and when the
match is applied the fire burns only
until the oil has burned off the wood
and coal. First place In few sticks
of wood, not enough to cover the bot
tom of the crate, break small pieces
and lay crosswise, then put on the oil.
If you use kerosene. and there will be
no difficulty in making the fire burn.
Another way is to place the bindling
in funnel shape. This is especially
good in furnaces. since the funnel
causes strong draft as soon as the
wood starts to burn. This will remedy
the trouble you have every morning In
starting the coal fire.

SUBSTITUTE FOR HOT IRON.

Gar as Composer of Music.

For the last IS months the czar has
been virtually a prisoner in one OF
his own palaces and in .he intervals
of state work he has solaced himself
with composing music and writing
verse. His poetry is melodious and
carefully polished and his music Is
melancholy and inspired by spirit of
fatalism. Some three years ago some
of the cars poems were published
under the pseudonym of Olaf, with
music by his cousin, the Grand Duke
D'Assia, but he has himself set some
of his verses to music with consider
able amount of taste and a real knowl-
edge of harmony. Nicholas II. has
fine collection of violins, of which he

we have used nothing but Cuticura

How to Clean Brass.

First clean the brass in the ordinary
way either with one of the ready-made
polishes, or with paraffin and finely
powdered bathbrick mixed to a rather
soft consistency. Polish with dry, fine
ly powdered bathbriok, then rub
quickly over with a little petrol. and
afterward polish with dry whitening
and leather. using brush for any
parts into which the leather will not
go.
Be sure that all stains are removed
before you begin polishing. Stains of
long standing, that bought ready made
polishes will not move, will always
yield to vigorous treatment with
bathbrick and parafiin; in fact. this,
applied with rather stiff nailbrush,
is what dealers use to clean old brass
that has become absolutely black
through lying by.

by which the stomach is toned up to do
the work which nature intended of it.
A recent cure by the tonic treatment is
