This is an ideal food and evidently

One advantage about Grape Nuts
Food is that 1T is pre-digested in the
process of manufacture: that is. the
starch contained in the wheat and
barley is transformed into grape su-
gar by exactly the same method as
this process is carried out in the hu-
man body. that is, by the use of mois-
ture and long exposure to moderate
warmth. which grows the diatase in
the grains and makes the remarkable
change from starch to grape sugar.

STEEL POSTAL CARS
MAKE TRAINS SAFER
They Interpose an UnburnabIe Barrier
Between the Locomotive and Wood
en- Coaches.

San Francisco. June 13.-(Special
Correspondence Of The Republican,
From designs of its own motive pow
er engineers. the Southern Pacific
company's Sacramento shops have Just
turned out the most advanced type of
all-steei postal car. There is not a
scrap of wood anywhere In the car ex-
cept the window frames From wheels
to roof the car is OF steel frame. floor
sides and fittings.
Besides cutting down the danger Of
telescoping and reducing deterioration
to a minimum. the value of the all
steel postal car, the railroad officials
say. is that il protects the entire train
from the fire danger by interposing an
unburnable barrier between the loco
motive and, the coaches. The addi-
tional safety secured to postal en-
ployes and the contents of the car is
another important advantage.
In the new Southern Pacific postal
car. the main features CT the lower
framing are two massive twelve inch
I-beams that weigh 311i pounds per
foot. II is mainly due to these beams
that the steel car can Withstand over
200 per cent more shock than an or
dinary car with wooden s'lls. Mono
lith laid over two courses of CORFU
gated steel forms the floors.
Inside the car is lined with asbestos
while the ceiling like the outside and
the roof. is of steel plates. In every
direction the car is strongly braced.
and TO take up heavy shocks on the
end frame a steel plate twenty inches
wide is riveted across the top framing
The whole car is so completely bound
together that the most severe shock
might possibly buckle the entire franz
ing. but could not telescope the car.
Electric lighting and steam heating
automatically regulated. add still fur
ther to the fireproof qualities of the
car. All the fittings. racks and ap-
paratus used in handling the mails are
of steel or brass.

of the theory upon which nearly all
engineers are now agreed-that con-

protection in the way of fire proofing.
This fact was established by the San
Francisco fire.
Not long after that calamity a prom

of Civil Engineers. who had made a
personal investigation of more than so
