Not Hurt by the FURRY.

It is said that President Roosevelt
has decided not to accept the invi-
tation of the Illinois Manufacturers
association to come to Illinois and
make a speech on the railroad Ques-
ton for the purpose of restoring conf
dences. If anybody expects the presi-
dent TO call halt on wholesome legis-
latiOn for the control of railroads they
will probably be disappointed, althougl
he may seek to put a check on meas
ures designed to affect stock manipula-
tons.
1t is probably safe to say that stocks
reached high water mark before the
recent furry and that all the presi-
dents horses and men cannot put them
back again, because they were at s..
sentially fictitious points. The coun-
try Is in safer condition now that some
of the gas has escaped.

lnflammatory rheumatism Cured il
Three Days.

Morton L. Hill, of Lebanon, Ind,
says: "My wife had inflammatory
rheumatism in every muscle and joint;
her suffering was terrible and her body
and face were swollen almost beyond
recognition; had been in bed for six
weeks and had eight physicians, but
received no benefit until she tried the
Mystic Cure for rheumatism 1t gave
immediate relief and she was able to
walk about in three days. l am sure il
saved her life" Sold by Otto Grotjan

Rural Mail Increase.

A recent report of the postmaster
general shows $4,000 rural mail deliv-
cry routes in the United States, of
which number 1880 are III the central
western states of Iowa. Illinois, Ohio,
Indiana, Michigan. Wisconsin, Mime
sofa. and Missouri.
Illinois ranks first among the states
in the number of rural mail routes in
operation with 1855 and Ohio second
with 2.493. Iowa is credited with 3
3O3 and Indiana, with 2.130. Pennsyl-
vania is the only other state with more
than 1000.
Taking the country over, the aver
age number of pieces of mail handled
on rural route each month is 1925, a
gain of 20 per cent over the showing
of year ago. when the number was
3GSS. This gain has been general, but
few routes on which more than 5000
pieces of mail are handled every month,
10 of these having a record of over
10000 pieces.
The report shows a steady increase
in the number of money orders issued
by carriers. There has been a gain in
this respect of about % per cent, the
average being GS5 a month as compar-
ed with 54S year ago. The great ma.
jOrity of these money orders are said

500, 600 Babies
Are Sacrificed
State Official Declares Adulterated
Foods an Appalling Menace.

At 4 recent meeting of the executive
committee of the National Association
of State Dairy and Food Departments.
the secretary of a state board made
the assertion. and produced figures to
prove it, that the death of nearly half
a million little children in America
last year was duo TO poisons admins
tered in impure foods.
Welcome, indeed, is a food that is
known to be pure and wholesome, rich
in nutrition and good to eat,-so good
that no other food can take its place.
We refer to Malta-Nita. that delicious
crisp. wholc-wh food. Among all
the cereal foods we believe Malta-Nita
is the only food that is simply and
wholly pure grain product and nothing
else. except a little salt. 1t is free
from any foreign sweetening agent or
other adultcrant, and is made in alb
sOlute cleanliness.
perfect breakfast is impossible
without Malta-Vita. and it's just as
good three times a day Containing
every food element of the best white
wheat and pure barley malt extract. it
is intensely vitalizing and easily di-
Eested. Let your children have all the
Malta-Nita they want and you necG not
fear for their health. Try some your
self with cream or fruit. You never
tasted anything quite so good. All

der Matthews of the simplified spelling

more than offset by the support of men

LonefeIIow's Description.
Determine how fast, asks Professor
Greenhli, Hiawatha can run from the
following data:
Strong of arm was IIiawatha.
He could shoot ten arrows upward.
And the tenth had left the bow5trinS
Ere the first TO earth had fallen.
Swift OF foot was HilWatha.
He could shoot an arrow from him
And run forward with such swiftness
That the arrow fen behind him.
NeGlecting the resistance of the air
and granting that Iiawatha could
shoot one arrow Il second, the solution
is as follows:
The time of flight of the arrows shot
upward must have been nine seconds
Therefore the velocity with which they
were shot. being equal to the time null
tfpiied into half the value of the con
slant of gravity. was IA feet Il second
Now, in shooting an arrow from him
Hiawatha, to obtain the farthest flight
would let fly at an angle of forty-fivC
degrees, and by Il simple trigOnOmet-
rical calculation we therefore arrive al
the fact that the horizontal velocity OF
the arrow would be rather less than III
feet a second and would in fact be TO-
feet second. or seventy miles an hour
