MEN OF AFFAIRS
Need Proper Food to Supply the Brain

A medical journal comments on the
restless brain worker of our large
cities and refers to the fact that he
thinks he knows as much about the
needs OF the brain. when he is tired
and shows brain fag, as a trained
practitioner
He is inclined to spur up the tired
organs by some stimulant or perhaps
quiet his complaints with some marco
tic and this plan goes on until sudden
ly be collapses, for brain flag is a sure
sign that the elements that compose
the brain are being more rapidly used
up than replaced by the food.
There is really a choice of but two
pathways for an active brain worker
"a man of affairs-when he shows
symptoms of breaking down. Either
he must quit work or he must have
food that will replace the structure of
brain and nerve centres as rapidly as
they are used up each day.
Chemical analysis of the particles
thrown out through the pores of the
body shows that after continued brain
work, a large portion of excreta con-
tains phosphate of potash. 1t is known
that when this element is furnished by
the food in proper quantities, the sys-
tenn unites 1t with albumen and from
that compound makes the gray mat
ter that fills the nerve centres and the
brain. p.
This is an especial feature of the
food known as Grape-Nuts, deli
cious, ready-cooked and predigested
brea kfast food.
A definite and we'll understood gain
In brain power and physical strength
will set in after Grape-Nuts has been
used eight or ten days. and sustained
and continued brain work can be car
ried on if a reliance is placed upon
this food in connection with the or
binary food of the day.

ity that we are assassins and out
laws. After all this time our case
is about to be reached, and the
president Of the United States, in
no way interested officially or
otherwise, sends two letters broad
cast over the country, charging us
with guilt and crime. These are
republished in every paper in the
land, and especially in every paper
in Idaho. The governor Of Colo
RADIO, day or two later, adds his
word of spite to the venom of the
president, and says that we are
not only guilty Of the crime as
charged, but Of many others too.
"While she president OF the
United States and the governor of
Colorado are sending out their
statements to encompass our death,
the judge of this county has
brought a citizen before him for
contempt on the charge that he
tried to influence the mind of a
prospective juror by saying the
state administration was trying to
railroad u.s. On the appearance
of this man in court the Judge
promptly told the states attorney
that he should have this obscure
farmer indicted for felony because
he had tried to influence the mind
Of prospective juror.
"The president knows how much
greater weight will be given to his
words than to those OF an obscure
private citizen. If we are about to
be tried in court every law abiding
citizen, however great or humble,
should do anything in his power to
cool the passions of men, rather
than add fuel to the flames. If
we are to be thrown to the mob,
the officers should at least open
our prison doors and give us some
chance to defend ourselves"

THE DANDELION,

This hardy annual has taken
the town, not only by surprise, but
by numbers. To say that there
are millions of him is no joke
either. His advent is alleged to
be brought about by the COW ordi-
nance which prohibits the town
COW from roaming the streets OF
growing Grangeville where she
used to crop the gay dandelion in
his youth and thus prevented his
arrival at maturity. There is talk
of letting the COW roam again at
her own free will. Under the
terms of the COW ordinance there is
nothing to prohibit those who keep
cows from letting them run at large
upon the streets and alleys and
vacant lots of the city, SO long as
they are herded. Turn your cows
out and let them Craze upon the
succulent dandelion to their hearts
content. All that is required is a
boy to herd them from trespassing
upon gardens and such.

THE GREAT TRIAL.

The great trial of Meyer, Hey.
wood and Pettibone for alleged
completely in the assassination OF
ex-Gov. Steunenberg, is now in
process at Boise City, and is being
widely reported by leading papers
of the United States. Whether
rightly or wrongly, the impression
exists that the trial of these men
on such serious charge is brought
about by the perjured testimony
of a degenerate like Orchard, who
is considered to be the tool of orga-
nized capital upon the one hand
an organized labor on the other.
With these matters we have no
particular concern. What the
average citizen of Idaho is most
concerned with is, is the fact that
the state government has made a
state case out of the trial, and
that the legislature has appropri-
ated vast sums of money to pro-
vide the expense of the criminal
prosecution. There is a prevalent
belief that the state government
and the legislature exceeded
authority in taking any action in
the case, and that the prosecution
would better be left to the county
government where the crime was
committed.
With the battles between organ
lied capital and organized labor
the average citizen has no concern,
except to say: "a plague on both
your houses" With the indus
trial trusts controlling the neces-
saries OF life, and organized labor
demanding more and more wages
and shorter hours, the average
citizen, who is not identified with
either, is between the upper and
neither milestone, and is called up.
on to pay the freight both ways for
all the conflicts evoked by our in.
dustrial system.

Winona Beats DRYDEN.

An exciting game of baseball was
played near Green creek last Sun-
day when the baseball teams from
Winona and Dryden crossed bats
for honors as the most graceful ex-
ponents of the national game. The
game was very interesting, both
for the players and the spectators
who had gathered from the sur
rounding country to watch the con-
test. When the final score was
announced the boys from Dryden
were declared the winners by a
count of 10 to 7. Lloyd Whiting
was the official umpire. The team
from Dryden is becoming quite
proficient and are practicing for
their game with the Denver boys
next Sunday. This contest will be
pulled off at Dryden. Following

in last Sundays game:

In loosely played game at the
ball park Sunday afternoon the
single mems team defeated the
Bendict aggregation by score Of

batting, the game was featureless,
but those who attended seemed
pleased with the contest. Ernest
Day acted as umpire. The lineup

inal intentions and was as follows:
