One of Many.

An Atchison woman started out to
buy her fall hat First she visited
the openings and looked and looked.
Then she took a friend and went
around to the millinery stores and
tried on" again. saying, of course,
that her hair looked perfectly ter
rible." Then she went home and
thought and thought, and, finally,
went back to the stores and tried
on" once more; and thought, and
thought, and then bought hat which
is so grotesque and hideous that her
relatives and friends blush with
shame every time they see her wear
it. and strangers stare at her, wonder
ing what kind of courage it takes to
wear such looking hat But she
did the best she could.-Atchison

Nut Growing Industry of the South.

Nut growing is a comparatively
new industry in the south Atlantic
and Gulf states, but it promises to de-
velop into one of the most important
in that section" said ]. u. Reid,
prosperous planter of Florida. THE
most popular nut is the pecan, and it's
popularity is probably due to the de-
velopment of systematic methods of
grading it and cracking it with ma
chinery operated by steam or electric
power. This makes possible the mar
keting of the meats of the nut ready
for use.
"The demand is always much great
er than the supply and many planters
are now turning their attention to the
nut raising industry. 1t is not un-
common for tree to bear as high as
200 pounds of nuts in one season and
most of these sell at from go to 20
cents a pound. 1t does not require
much figuring to show that the pecan
orchards which abound in some Sec
tions are paying investments"

WHAT WAS 1T
The Woman FearedP

What a comfort to find it is not "the

indigestion, which proper food can re-
lieve.
A woman in Ohio says:
II was troubled for years with indi-
gestion and chronic constipation. At
times would have such gnawing
in my stomach that l actually feared

Seeing an account of Grape-Nuts
I decided to try it. After short time
I was satisfied the trouble was not
the awful thing l feared but was still
bad enough. However. was relieved
of a bad case of dyspepsia by chang

"Since that time my bowels have
been as regular as clock. had also
noticed before l began to eat Grape
Nuts that | was becoming forgetful OF

SHAKING DOWN THE TRUSTS.
Chas. c. Dawes Visits Wall Street and Promises Republican Party Will
 Be Good.

Under New York date line of Sept. 10 the daily papers of the country publish dispatch from which the fol- lowing is taken:
 "The visit of Charles c. Dawes, of Chicago (formerly Comptroller of the Currency), had more influence than anything else in arousing Wall street uneasiness. MT. Dawes came to New York primarily to raise money for the Republican congressional campaign committee. and he gave the people he called upon very clearly to under stand that the Republican majority in the house is in danger.
 Wall street has steeled itself against the importunities of political canvassers for funds. but Mir Dawes visit was unQuestionably impressive. The people who saw and heard him were convinced that he really meant what he said when he announced that unless means were taken to arrest the current and change the situation the Democrats would swing into control of the popular branch of congress and probably elect president Mir. Dawes did not conflne his visit alone to bankers and hnanciers He devoted a good share of his attention to leading representatives of the manufacturing interests He carried away some money. but not nearly as much as he had hoped for"

COULDN'T STAND SHELDON.
Even Lt..Gov. Woodruff, Trust Character, Said the Present Trea- surer of the National Commit. tee, Would JeonardIze the
 State Ticket.

George R. Sheldon. treasurer of the Republican National committee, whose trust interests are we'll known, was compelled. under fire, to withdraw from the New York state ticket in the fall of 1902 when he was eager to accept the office of Lieutenant-Gover- nor. His connections with the trusts and especially those owned and domi- hated by J. Pierpont Morgan and other favored trusts, became such an issue at that time that Governor B. B. odell fought against his name being placed on the ticket. odell even went 60 far as to wire Timothy Woodruff that he would not rsp on the same state ticket with Sheldon. United States Senator Thomas c. PIatt was deter mined to have Sheldon on the ticket and informed the Republican leaders at the state convention at Saratoga that sheldon's name would remain on the slate. The wires between the con vsnt3en city and Afbxny. wers kept hst anl. nnaily, 0oysrpQr oasll was
