1t is just the food have been looking

Grape-Nuts is the most scientifically
made food on the market. 1t is per-
fectly and completely cooked at the
factory and can be served at an in
stant's notice, either with rich cold
cream, or with hot milk if a hot dish
is. desired. When milk or water is
used, a little sugar should be added,
but when cold cream is used alone
the natural grape-sugar, which can be
seen glistening on the granules, is suf-
ficiently sweet to satisfy the palate.
This grape-sugar is not poured over
the granules, as some people think,
but exudes from the granules in the
process Of manufacture, when the
starch of the grains is changed from
starch to grape-sugar by the process
of manufacture. This, in effect, is the
first act of digestion; therefore, Grape
Nuts food is pre-digested and is most
rfectly assimilated by the very

Not Needed Now.

The Pomeroy model farm of $50
acres, on the outskirts of Hill City,
has been sold for $50 AN acre. This
is the farm on the Union Pacific where
the Campbell system familiar in the
west, was used. 1t consisted of the
plan of farming and raising wheat in
arid regions by the system of reten-
ton and utilization of the then scanty
rainfall. The tract was one of the
highest and driest in Graham county
The experiment began in 1900. An
immense amount of work was done in
preparing the soil and crops grown
upon the land demonstrated that good
farming could be made successful in
western Kansas. A large orchard, sew
eral groves of forest trees and an i'm
mense vineyard prove that tree Gull
ture in Graham county does not de-
pend upon water artificially applied
AS the years went by and the rainfall
became greater, the need for the farm
as a practical demonstration became
less. 1t is understood that in the fu-
ture the place will be operated as a
grain and stock farm.

Greater Than AIaska,s Gold.

Figures on the output and valuation
of zinc and lead ores from the Mis-
souri-Kansas mining district for the
first half of the year show the most
remarkable increase in the districts
history. Provided the same ratio of
increase is maintained during the last
half of the year the output and valu-
alton will be more than S3,000,000 in
excess of the districts biggest year.
Last years output and valuation d
zinc and lead ores was S15,12S.175, or
more than $2,OOO,0O0 greater than the
previous record year but the valuation
for 1907 will be approximately $751;
100000. equivalent to, or greater than
tie vi;.ue of the gold output firm Alas
ka. The value of zinc and lead ores
mined from the district during the
six months ending with June is S9,S73,-
S15, against $7,300,0S2 for the same
period of 1906. This value called for
the production of $4,000, 400 pounds
of zinc ore-the highest grade mined
in the woodland 1855, 24o pounds of
lead ore.

NO MORE C. 0. D. LIQUOR
Express Companies Need not Garry
Such Shipments to Kansas.
der-common Carriers Under No
Obligations to Receive Goods

Kansas City, Mo. = Judge John
C. Pollock of the United States circuit
court, revoked the mandatory order
Friday morning compelling express
companies TO carry C. o. d. liquor
and denied the temporary injunction
against the Wells-Fargo Express COM
pany and thePacific Express company
asked by the Harvest-King Distilling
company
All technicalitieS raised by the at
torneys for the compliments were
waived and Judge Pollock decided
the case purely on its merits. After
quoting several authorities the judge
said in his order:
1t is clear that express companies
are under no obligation or duty IN
common law to engage in c. o. D..
carriage of goods, but that the oDliga-
ton imposed to collect the purchase
price OF the article shipped is an OBJ
legation that must rest in contract and
not in an obligation imposed by law"
Several express companies announ-
ced, May Is, that they would no long
er carry c. o. D. liquor shipments
into Kansas, giving as their reasons
that public sentiment is opposed to
such traffic in the face of the Kansas
prohibition law. The manager of one
of the express companies said that
ne had decided it was morally wrong
to carry c. o. D. liquor shipments,
even though it was permitted by the
interstate commerce law.
The attorneys for the distilling COM
panies urged thai the express COM
panies had no legal right to refuse
c. o. D. shipments of liquor. Judge
Pollock issued mandatory order
June l compelling the express COM
panies to carry the C. o. D. snip
ments until the questions at issue
might be presented to the court in
proper form. This order he has re-

UNITY OF INTERESTS.
Relationship of Residents Of Rural
Communities to the Home Town.

Live and let live is a policy that
has come down through the ages and
Is an expression of the Golden Rule
only in different words There is in
born In man desire for self-preserva-
ton. 1t is law of life, and to this
desire can be attributed that which is
considered selfishness within us. SAX
age man has little regard for the
rights and properties OF others. He
lacks the sense of equity and justice
and is guided solely by the brutal in
stincts. Intelligent man realizes that
all his fellow creatures are entitled
to the same rights he would enjoy
himself. Therefore where the Chris
tian spirit is found, there can be look
ed for such equity as gives all an
equal chance to gain a livelihood and
to enjoy the products of their labor.
There should be the greatest har-
mony among the citizens of every
community. The interest of all the
classes comprising a city or a district
should be considered identical. 1t has
been noted that the most prosperous
towns have been built up by har-
monious and united effort of all the
| people composing it. In these days
When there are evils to combat, when
oppressive trusts exist that are fac
tors in unequal distribution of wealth.
it is all important that the masses in
each and every community unite and
work in harmony for the protection
and betterment of local conditions 1t
it to be regretted that in many agri-
cultural communities there is lack
| of harmony between what is called
the business interests and the produc-
ers of crops. Different reasons may
be advanced for this condition, but the
most common cause is misupder
standing on the part of the citizens
as to the relationhip that should ex-
list between them. It is wrong for
the teachings that. go forth that the
farmers interests are different from
those of the merchant, or that the
merchants interests differ from
farmers of the community. 1t
is also an erroneous idea that the
town is alone for the townspeople
and the country districts for the farm
er. Is it not true that the merchant
is dependent upon the farmer for his
support? And it is equally true that
the town is an important thing to the
farmer. 1t is a convenience to him
and he is as deeply interested in all
| that pertains to it, to its advancement
and the betterment of its public insti
tutions, its streets, its parks and ALL
as are the people who reside within
the town. The merchants should real
ize how important the farmer is to
them, and the farmer should be
brought to a realization that the town
is for him as well as for those who re-
side within its limits, and, that the
less antagonism between the resi-
dents on the farms and the residents
of the town the better it will be for
the whole community. There is a
unity of interests that cannot be
ignored, and there is a common field
wherein all can work for mutual bene-
fit.

GET-RICH-QUICk GAMES.
Government Investigating the Opera
tors of Bucket Shops That Do
Business Through the Mails.

In times of prosperity there are al
ways chances for the CRATER. During
the past ten years has been the era
of the get-rich-quick man. No sooner
does one scheme play out than an
other takes its place. Thanks to the
ever diligent postal inspectors, and an
unrelenting government, the SchemerS
are not so plentiful as a few years ago.
For some years a number of supposed
legitimate grain and stock brokers
thrived in both eastern and western
cities. These were active in soliciting
through the mails, and through local
offices the business of small investors.
The millions of money gained from
the unsuspecting people will never be
known. In New York, Chicago, St.
Louis and other cities large and eX-
pensively conducted offices were main
tanned. Once the government got on
the right trail, there were Irregular
ties discovered that resulted in fraud
orders being issued against a number
of the concerns. The end is not yet,
and the work of determination will be
kept up till there is none in operation.
Buying stocks in a fair market is a
risky business, but when there arc
schemers to stack the cards against
the investor, there is not a ghost of
show. Many a bank clerk and bust
ness man can trace his downfall to
specializing in the bucket shops.

Deadly Common Plants.

The things that give the most pleas
ure in life frequently can also cause
the greatest pain. Among flowers, for
instance, the beautiful snowdrop, the
hyacinth, jonquil and narcissus are
all poisonous, and to eat the smallest
part of the root of either of them
would produce fatal results, while the
juices of the leaves will cause violent
vomiting.
The berries of the yew tree have
killed many people. and the opium
obtained from peoples has also
claimed its victims. Lady's slipper
and lily of the valley are both danger
Gus, and if the blossoms of crocus are
chewed they will cause vomiting.
Flowers from dubious roots, however.
seem to be the most dangerous, and it
might not be out of place to dealers
in these to label them with a cross
bones and mark them poison.

LIFE INSURANCE A SACRED
TRUST.
Responsibilities of OFFICERS and ri.
rectors.

II Evidently President Kingsley of the
New York Life Insurance company
has learned the great lesson of the
times with respect to the responsible
ity and duty of directors of corpora
'tions. Speaking. to the new board of
trustees, on the occasion of his cleo
ton to the presidency, he emphasized
the fact that life insurance is more
than private business, that life in
surance trustees are public servants,
charged at once with the obligations
of public service and with the respon-
sibilities that attach to going bust
ness which at the same time must be
administered as trust
He also realizes that similar respon-
sibilities rest upon the officers of the
company. Il understand" he says,
your anxiety in selecting the men
who are day by day to carry this bur-
den for you, who are to discharge this
trust in your behalf, who are to ad-
minister for the benefit of the people
involved the multitudinous and exact
ing details to which it is impossible
for you to give personal attention. My
long connection with the New York
Life-covering nearly twenty years
my service in about every branch of
the company's working organization,
gives me, as l believe, a profound ap-
probation, not merely of the heavy
burden you have placed on my Shout
ders, but of the standards of efficiency,
the standards of faith, the standards
of integrity, which must be main
tanned at all times by the man who
serves you and the policyholders in
this high Office"
Best of all, perhaps, he feels that
words are cheap, and that the public
will be satisfied with nothing short of
performance. my thanks, therefore"
he continues, for an honor which out
ranks any distinction within the reach
of my ambition, cannot be expressed
in words: they must be read out of
