Many Applicants
For Membership

The first callers on Robert y. Harper,
newly elected president OF the Wash
ington Chamber OF Commerce, when he
arrived at his office in the American
National Bank this morning, were many
applicants for membership in the new
Chamber, and members who came TO
congratulate him on his election.

TAKE THEM OUT
Or Feed Them Food They Can Study
On.

When a student begins to break
down from lack of the right kind of
food, there are only two things to do;
either take him out of school or feed
him properly on food that will rebuild
the brain and nerve cells. That food
is Grape-Nuts.
A boy writes from jamestown, n. z,
saying: "A short time ago / got into
a bad condition from overstudy, but
Mother having heard of Grape-Nuts
food began to feed me on it. 1t salts
fed my hunger better than any other
food, and the results were marvellous.
I got fieshy like a good fellow. My
usual morning headaches disappeared.
and I found I could study for long
period without feeling the effects of 1t.
My face was pale and thin, but is
now round and has considerable color.
After I had been using Grape-Nuts for
about two months, / felt like new
boy altogether. / have gained greatly
in strength as well as flesh, and 1t Is
pleasure to study now that am not
bothered with my head. l passed all OF
my examinations with reasonably
good percentage, extra good in some OF
them, and it Is Grape-Euts that has
saved me from q years delay in en-
tering college.
Father and mother have both been
improved by the use of Grape Nuts.
Mother was troubled with sleepless
nights, and got very thin, and looked
care worn. She has gained her normal
strength and looks, and sleeps well
nights" There's a Reason" Read

ROBBERS COULD HAVE
SECURED 100000 MORE

Milwaukee. Oct. 26.-F'urther investiga-
ton into the robbery of the United States
Express company of money packages
amounting to $4,000, reveals the fact that
bags containing 10000 remained un-
touched, although easily accessible to
anyone who could open the safe. This
seems to negative all the theories that
the safe was rifled and makes it more
probable that the money was taken while
in transit to the depot office. The local
police were called to the assistance OF
the conlpany's detectives and a minute
inspection of doors, windows, safe, etc,
was made. Superintendent Mcdonald to-
day admitted that he was still without
definite information as to how the rob-
berry was accomplished.

In French cities everybody plays it.
One sees persons walking along tho
streets tossing spoOls on a cord. Chill
dren play it everywhere. Business
men play Diabolo on the way home
from the office. Tournaments are held
In England it has assumed the oropor-
lions of a sport. There are profession
al teachers of Diabolo. Weekend Di-
abolo parties are given by society lead
ers. 1t is played in the drawing rooms
of the aristocracy and in the area
ways of the pOverty-stricken. The
game has taken all Europe by STORM.
1t sounds like a foolish pastime for q
grown-up, but the best critics of the
staid London papers say it is a won
derfully fascinating game. Everyone
who tries it once plays it like a fan
attic thereafter. 1t is said to riva
tennis, ping pong, football and golf ir
its allurements. And it is coming t6
America. You had better become or
expert now and be able to shine wh,r

anced on the strinq.

But the new Diabolo has caught on
stronger than did ping-pong a few
years ago. Rich and poor alike are
playing it in England, and all classes
will soon be victims in America.
The tools of the sport consist of two
sticks between which is strung a tight,
strong cord. and a bobbin shaped like
a big spool and made of wood, tin or
cellulOid. The game Is to pick up the
bobbin on the cord, make it rotate rap
idly, hurl 1T high in the air and then
catch 1T on the cord again. Sounds
childish, doesn't it? But 1t has taken
Europe by storm.
The game may be played by individ-
uals or by teams, throwing the bobbin
from one person TO another. There are
a thousand variations, but they are
all in the same line-throw the revolv-
ing bobbin and catch 1t again. It's not
as simple trick as it appears. That's
why ii is called Diaboio. It's the devil
to catch that bobbin without dropping
it to the ground

Munyon's Kidney Remedy
Free.

Never in the history of Salt Lake City
have our people shown such interest in
any remedy as has been manifested in
Munyon's rheumatism Remedy, which is
now being given away at The Herald Of
flee. Crowds came and went from in
the morning until Z at night. Men and
women from all walks in life came, one
as eager as the other to get relief from
Rheumatism. Scores of people declared
that the sample bottle which they re-
ceiyed on Friday had cured or greatly
benefited them. Prof. MunyOn says the
25-cent Rheumatism Remedy will cure
ninety out Of every hundred, but where
the bones have become stiff and the
joints chalky he strongly advises the use
Of his Special 3X rheumatism Remedy,
which can be had at all druggists. AS all
of Munyon's Remedies are guaranteed
under the pure food and drug act, the
public can place faith in all that is
claimed for them

cided TO continue the free distribution
until o'clock Monday evening.

Diabolo is moving westward. Italy
has been raving about 1T for a year.
France is devoted to it, England is
fast falling under its sway. America
will have the craze soon. There is no
avoiding Diabolo. 1t came from the
Orient, and it will reach there again,
having travelled around the world. 1t
fascinates men, women and children.
Neither young nor old, giddy nor dig
nified, sick nor well. weak nor strong
are immune. Diabolo is worse than
smallpox; you can't be vaccinated and
thus escape it. 1t can be played in
doors and out of doors. 1t is omni-
present. once it strikes a community.
Diabolo is a game. Just a simple
little game, that looks like a child s
plaything. 1t originated probably in
China hundreds of years ago. 1t struck
the Occident once before, and was then
