GRAND JURY is READY
TO QUIT FOR TERM
Complete All Business in
Few Days.

The grand jury serving at the
present term of the court completed
yesterday all business before that
honorable body and filed the general
presentments, which are published
elsewhere in the Times-Recorder to-
day and will be found of interest.
This grand jury is one of excep-
tional strength and ability, and has
discharged we'll its duties.
The financial affairs of the county,
the examination of books and records,
the public buildings and roads-all
these, and others, have had careful
attention and consideration, as fully
evidenced in the presentments.
Rarely has such an excellent body,
and never better one, served the
county in that capacity.
Still Held BY Court
While the grand jury has made its
presentments it has not been form
ally adjourned, Judge Littlejohn pre-
ferring to hold it pending further
business that may possibly be devel-
oped during the holidays, as not in
frequently has occurred here.
The body, therefore, simply stands
adjourned subject to the call of the
court, if required.
Make Public the Proceedings
An interesting as we'll as very i'm
portant recommendation made by this
body refers to the publication of the
proceedings of the county commits
81 oil Gn1ln8
volume so far as the general public OF
the county is concerned.
The county commissioners are re-
quested to publish their monthly pro-
ceedings-that of each meeting-and
Furthermore to publish semi-annually
a statement of the county's finances
This is a subject of general interest
affecting the taxpayers generally.
No doubt the commissioners will
take pleasure in complying with this
very reasonable request.
No Cases for Trial
There are no more cases ready fol
trial on the criminal docket. Judge
Littleiohn was advised yesterday thai
such was the case and, therefore, de-
clined to draw new jury to serve
this week, with no certainty that they
would be needed.
There are three or four cases thai
might have been tried upon indict-
ments returned recently, amonp them
the Sims and Wade cases, but as the
defendants are at large there is nc
absolute certainty that jury would
be required.
Under these conditions the session
may come to an early close, as all
cases ready are disposed of.

Never Overlooked a Chance.

When B.hop Talbot. now of the central Pennsylvania diocese, was the cowboy bishop" of Idaho and Wyoming he never overlooked an op- portunity of securing contributions for the missionary work in which he took such delight. On one occasion. while attending a meeting of church dignitaries in St. Paul, he was chatting with some other clergymen on the steps of his hotel when several ho- boes came along. One of them ap- preached and asked for aid Bishop Talbot took him aside and after short but earnest conversation the other tramps saw something pass from hand to hand. What did he give you?" asked the other hoboes when they all started away Didn't give me nothing was the disgusted reply. T gave him a dollar for his blamed new cathedral in Laramie"

 Such food is Grape-Nuts It not only agrees with and builds up chil- dren, but older persons who, from bad habits of eating, have become dyspep- tic
 A Phila lady. after being benefited herself persuaded her husband to try Grape-Nuts for stomach trouble. She writes:
 About eight years ago I had a se- were attack of congestion of stomach and bowels. From that time on. I had to be careful about eating, as nearly every kind of food then known to me, seemed to cause pain.
 -Four years ago l commenced to use Grape-Nuts. l grew stronger and better. and from faat time I seldom have been without it; have gained in health and strength and am now heav- fer than I ever was.
 My husband was also in a bad con. dition-his stomach became so weak that he could eat hardly anything with comfort. I got him to try Grape nuts, and he soon found his stomach trouble had disappeared.
