TEA FROM THE FLOWERS.
5his Product Little Known in the H United States.

Tea, not from leaves. but from the Bowers alone of the plant, is rarely en- eountered in commerce. The petals. 0tamens, etc., are sun dried, and the resulting tea is of rich, deep brown hue of peculiarly delicate odor, and Gives a pale amber colored infusion 'father more astringent in taste than That from the average fair grade leaf. The taste for it is an acquired one, md even if this tea could be made Commercially possible, it is doubtful if lt would ever become popular. The American tea trade could ad- yantageously take a suggestion from the brick tea of the far east. In our country, the tea dust, some of which 3s good quality, is not properly Utilized. In Europe it is regular article of trade, and 1t is advertised and sold as tea dust, In America it is sold to thousands of cheap restau- rants, who make from it the mixture of tanic acid, sugar and boiled milk which they sell as "tea." If, as in the orient this dust was compressed into bricks, good tea could be made from .l<

PUTS THE "GINGER" IN.
The Kind of F2d Used by Athletes.

A former college athlete, one of the long distance runners, began to lose his power of endurance. His experi- eence with a change in food is interest ing.
 While I was in training on the track athletic team, my daily 'jogs' be- came a task, until after l was put on Grape-Nuts food for two meals day. sAfter using the Food for two weeks felt like a new man. My digestion was perfect, nerves steady and l was full of energy.
 'I trained for the mile and the half mile runs Chose events which require 10 much endurance) and then the long daily 'jogs,' which before had been such a task, were clipped on with ease. won both events.
 "The Grape-Nuts food put me in per feet condition and gave me my ginger Not only was my physical condition made perfect, and my weight in- creased. but my mind was made clear and vigorous so that could get out my studies in about half the time for merly required. Now most all of the University men use Grape-Nuts for they have learned its value, but l think my testimony will not be amiss and may perhaps help some one to learn how the best results can be ob- tained."

CANCER IN CHICAGO
Great Prevalence of Disease In That
 City Caused by Impure Food.

Chicago, Sept.-Chicago scientists are deeply interested in the result of two years exhaustive research upon cancer in Chicago by Dr. G. Cooke Adams of London. and formerly Of Australia, just made public here through the Department of Health. Dr. Adams has proved conclusiyely that diet plays a most important fac tor in the increase of the disease and its death rate. The increase from cancer in Chicago from 1866 to 1905 was 23.2 per cent; in 1886, one in each 104 deaths was due to cancer, and in 1905 it had increased to one death in every 23. The results show that the increase is due to the for eign-born inhabitants, as the native Chicago-born show the lowest death rate in the world. The death rate among the foreign-born from cancer in Chicago Is rapidly increasing. The German and Irish show the highest death rate from cancer in the world, nearly 300 per cent higher than in their native countries. The Italians and Chinese maintain the lowest death rate of all from cancer as shown ID their own countries.
 Concerning his researches pr. Adams says:
 My statistical investigations ln Europe, Great Britain and in the Uni ted States of America fully corrobo- rate my earlier Australian observa- tions. The increase of cancer and US death rate in the United States, par ticularly among the foreign-born in- habitants, is alarming, the mortality of the foreign-born being far In ex- cess of the death rate of the native born, and contributing the greatest part toward the generally high mor- tality.
 "The cause of this greatly increased death-rate among the foreign-born cannot be charged to climatic condl- tions, for I have found that the Chl- cago and Illinois born have about the lowest death-rate from cancer of any people the world, for many years the average being l death from cancer ID every 400 deaths among thesepeopie, and but 1 cancer death in 72 among the native Chicagoans over 40 years of age. The cause of the high death rate is the great quantity of impure food consumed by the foreign poor.

Rev. Mr.. Mccord on New Book.

ITO the Reading Public OF Marshall-
town: During the past few years
there has been a marked change in
the manner and method Of preaching.
In one way this change has been for
good and in another way it has resulted
In evil. Under the head of change re-
sulting In evil may be classed the
tendency to do away with all sermons
OF a doctrinal nature and to brand
them as unattractive and uninterest-
ing. This is mistake and a serious
one. 1t simply means that the young
people who are even now coming for
ward to take the places of their eld-,
ers are in one sense Of the word at
least poorly equipped for their work
I do not advocate return to the days
OF controversy In which men. in the
heat OF argument, applied to each other
epithets which were, to say the least,
unworthy Of the cause. But would
advocate clear cut. and definite
preaching OF and upon the great funda-
mental doctrines OF the new testament
as well as the old. Our young people
are beginning to have the notion that
these doctrines are simply the form
ulas Of religious fanatics. They are

not. They are principles whose de-
velopment can be traced in history.
They are principles which nave been
taught by the men and the women
who have stood and do stand among
the worlds most learned. They are
principles which have been taught by
writers, secular as we'll as religious.
mo book has come to my desk Tor
many a day which L have so keenly
enjoyed as the book entitled Ihe
Atonement in Literature and in Life, =
by Charles Allen Dinsmore. In this
book the writer takes the stand which
1 have already outlined above. He
takes position which is justified by
the experience of men in every age,
that no religion can permanently win
the assent Of men which does not have
clear and sane teaching regarding
the reconciliation Of God and man. He
holds that sin, retribution and reconcile
iation are not only truths of Holy Writ,
but that they are likewise the control
ling ideas of literature. Mr.. Dinsmore
puts these doctrines in such a way
that they are most attractive and fas-
cinating. To prove his assertions he
turns to the works Of such men as
Homer, Dante. Shakespeare, Milton and
Hawthorne; he analyses and dissects
their works until the proofs stand
forth as clearly as the monday sun.
But he does not rest with that. He
closes his argument with All outline OF
the Christian doctrine Of atonement,
and in so doing, shows, that it only Will
meet the demands Of the hearts OF
men.
Altogether 1t is a remarkably
strong book and is worthy of a care
full reading by all earnest minds.
