Register Closes
October 9

There remains but twenty more
days in which to get your name on the
register that will entitle you to vote
at the coming election and if YOU
have not placed your name on the big
book it behooves you to hurry. The
register will close at nine O'Clock on
the night of October 9th and all
whose names have not been affixed
thereto will lose their right of fran
chise the coming election.
1t should not be necessary to call
the attention of the voters of this
commonwealth to this fact but there
is considerable laxity here in this mat
ter and word to the wise should be
sufficient.

That is the townsite referred to in the
dispatch. but it is not the real Prince
Rupert.
Prince Rupert is situated $50 miles
north of Vancouver and 40 miles south
OF the Alaskan boundary. 1t is in the
same latitude as London ana has a
climate whose mean temperature is
about the same as that of the metropo-
lis Of the British Isles.
The city is all being planned, in ad-
vance of any building. and nothing is
being overlooked which will add to
the beauty and symmetry of the city
to be.
The site is a picturesque ono. The
land slopes back gently for distances
ranging from half mile to two or
three miles. Here and there the ground
rises abruptly. providing the neces-
sary fall for drainage mad sewerage,
while shore line five or six miles in
extent sweeps around the from. of the
city. The view from these elevated
stations and from back of the town

A GOOD COLD.
CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders in Health.

1t is worth knowing that a change
in food can cure dyspepsia Il deem
1t my duty to let you know how Grape.
Nuts food has cured me of Indigestion.
II had been troubled with 1t for
years. until last year my doctor recon-
mended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. / followed instruc-
tons and now l am entirely we'll.
THE whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial
as you see fit"
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food, is that it
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stom-
ach as the food she had been using:
1t also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system.
If that part of the human body is in
perfect working order, there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-
sents the steam that drives the engine.
When the nervous system is run
down, the machinery of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children as well as
adults. 1t is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

While this now famous American
woman was following the occupation
of vocal teacher at the Pennington
Comm Seminary for Girls. a number
of years ago she first became inter-
ested in the Oriental languages
through having been brought in con.
tact with several pupils from the far
east. Her intense interest became a
passion, and in the interval since then
she has devoted nearly all her time to
the mastering of the different
tongues. Many years ago she became
fluent user of the romance languages,
such as Italian. Spanish and French.
The greatest tribute to her wonder.
.ul memory lies in the fact that the
roots of the different numerous east
ern languages which she has learned
are all entirely different from those
of the western tongues. In the pres.
ent-day colleges throughout the world
separate courses are held in such Ian
guages as Hebrew, Sanscrit and Per.
sian, and to obtain a working knowl'
edge of any single one is considered n
difficult task.
When Miss Cotton first took up the
study of the eastern langues she was
located not far from Yale college. and
It was there that she acquired her ele.
nentary training in these different
tongues. Within short time the
young woman had come to be looked
upon as a prodigy among the most
learned Yale professors.
