SELLS PRIVATE CAR.
Vanderbilt Said to Have Changed
Mind Regarding Point Of Safety.

ASHEVILLE, N. c., March S.-Therc
has been much speculation IN TINS
vicinity for some time past IN regard
to the whereabouts of George w. van
derbilts magnificent private car
"Swannanoa,' and it was learned yes
terday from an authentic source that
Mr., Vanderbilt had sold the car. but
by whom the purchase was made IS
not as yet known. !,
The fact that Mr.. Vanderbilt has dis
posed of this superb car Is not at all
surprising to those acquainted with
the mlllionalre's ideas in regard to pos
sible danger while travelling. Mr.. Van
derbilt is known to have entertained
the belief that the only safe place on
a railroad train in the event of coll
lision, was in the rear car, holding this
view, Mr. Vanderbilt had his elegant
car built and always insisted when
travelling that it be coupled on to
the rear end of the train. After the
several rear-end collisions on the
Southern Railway and other roads
last winter, particularly the collision
in which President Spencer's private
car was wrecked and the great rail
road man lost his life, Mr. Vanderbilt
is stated to have changed his mind ir
regard to there being safety In tho
rear of a passenger train,

A DOCTOR SAYS
tGrape-Nuts Food Contains all the Ele-

There was time when doctors de-
pended almost entirely on the use of
drugs in treating disease. That day is
happily past, and our doctors of to-day
are men of wider views-they have
learned that proper food is most i'm
portant in healing disease A practicing
physician in New York City says:
"Disease is often an effort of Nature
to get rid of impurities III the system
as the result of incorrect habits-wrong
living. The cause of disease ought to,
and can be, removed by right living and
right thinking.
mature requires good air, sunlight,
food of proper quality and quantity,
plenty of pure water, exercise, cleanli-
ness and sleep. When these conditions
are met, health follows, but when they
are denied or neglected, sickness and
