SLOW MOVING FREIGHT
PREVENTED BAD WRECK

TIigginsviile, Mo. Feb. 26.-An at
tempt 10 wreck the eastbound Chica-
go & Alton passenger train, running
between Kansas City and st. Louis
was made at the west edge of Higgins
VILE late last night. A freight tram
that preceded the passenger knocked
the obstruction from the tracks.
There is no clue to the wreckers.
Railway men here believe their pur-
pose was robbery.
A dozen huge logs had been placed
across the tracks and securely brsced.
The freight train that struck the OBJ
struction was fortunately running at
q slow rate OF speed. The engine was
damaged and the crew slightly hurt,
but beyond this no serious damage
was done. The only thing that
saved the passenger train was the fact
that 1t was a few minutes late.
A similar attempt to wreck west

Chicago, Feb. 26--Mrs. Theodore
Thomas, widow of the world famous or
chestra leader, pleaded with the team
sters OF Chicago last night in behalf
of their horses.
Mrs. Thomas addressed the teamsters
at their headquarters and asked coop
GRAFTON in doing away with the practise
of overlooking wagons engaged in team
ing. She asked the teamsters to assist
in preparing an ordinance to be pre-
scented to the city council regulating

teamsters in support of the plan sug-

blamed the barn bosses and employers
for the apparent cruelties.
Many said abuses could be corrected
If the city council would limit tonnage
per horse that could be hauled through
the streets.

Value Of Raw Appjes.

Many persons fancy that raw apples
are indigestibe and only endurable in
the early morning. Doubtless the old
adage that fruit is gold in the morn
ing silver in the middle of the day and
lead at night is to some extent an
swerable for this to my way of think
ing) erroneous impression.
Dietitians tell us that ripe, raw ap-
pies contain more phosphates in pro
portion to their bulk than any other
article of food, fish not excepted. A
recent writer on this point boldly de
clarcs that in this lies the secret OF
healthful longevity They correct
bliousness and act as a sedative upon
racked nerves and allay insomnia.
Eat knocked apples constantly. al
though, of course. in moderation. and
drink distilled water only and years
will he added to your life. while the
evidences Of age will be long in com
ing"
This argument is based on the sup
position that as age advances the de-
posits of mineral matter in the system
increase and that aging is little more
than gradual process of Justification
Phcsphoric acid contains the least
amount of earth salts and for that rea :
s5n is probably the nearest approach
to the elixir of life known to the
scientific world.
If you want to live long to retain
your youth at the same time and to in
crease your brain tissue eat plenty of
apples, drink only distilled water and
eat as little bread as possible.
Tart apples are far more wholesome
than sweet. and all, like potatoes,
should be fully ripe when eaten.
