Brain anu INCTVC GCHITCS rs UdSGu
upon the fact that certain parts OF
Wheat and Barley (Which we use) con-
tain Natures brain and nerve building
ingredients, viz: Phosphate of Pot
ash, and the way we prepare the food
makes it easy to digest and assimilate.
DR.. Geo. w. Carey in his book on
1.-THE Biochemic System of Medicine"
says:
when the medical profession fully
understands the nature and range Of
the phosphate of potassium, insane
asylums will no longer be needed.
THE gray matter of the brain is
controlled entirely by the inorganic
cell-salt, potassium phosphate.
This salt unites with albumen, and
by the addition of oxygen creates nerve.
fluid, or the gray matter of the brain.
"Of course, there is trace OF other
salts and other organic matter in
nerve-fluid, but potassium phosphate
is the chief factor, and has the power
within itself to attract, by its own law
of affinity, all things needed to manu-
facture the elixir of life. Therefore,
when nervous symptoms arise, due to
the fact that the nerve-fluid has been
exhausted from any cause, the phos-
plate of potassium is the only true
remedy, because nothing else can
possibly supply the deficiency.
1.-THE ills arising from too rapidly
consuming the gray matter of the
brain cannot be overestimated.
of ic
mind, the most wonderful curative
agent ever discovered by man, and
the blessings it has already conferred
on the race are many. But what
shall the harvest be- when physicians
everywhere fully understand the part
this wonderful salt plays in the
processes of life? 1t will do as much
as can be done through physiology to
make a heaven on earth.
Let the overworked business man
take it and go home good-tempered.
Let the weary wife, nerves unstrung
from attending to sick children or en-
Pertaining company, take it and note
how quickly the equilibrium will be
restored and calm and reason assert
her throne. No 'provings' are required
here. We find this potassium salt
largely predominates in nerveshuid,
and that a deficiency produces we'll
defined symptoms. The beginning and
end of the matter is to supply the
lacking principle, and in molecular
form, exactly as nature furnishes it IL
vegetables, fruits and grain. TO sup
ply defciencies-th is the only law
of cure"
Please observe that Phosphate of
Potash is not properly of the drug
shop variety but is best prepared by
"Old Mother Nature" and stored in
the grains ready for use by mankind.
Those WHO have been helped to better
health by the use of Grape-Nuts are

EXPENSE OF THE COURTS.

for Farm and Ranch, series OF poll

ures from a card published in the In

Judge before the July primary. Inc
card was signed by sixty-four law
yers of the city of Dallas, hence We
suppose the figures are correct. TINS
is the quotation:
"The largest item OF expense
in the state government is the
maintenance Of the courts IL
costs the state and county from
$50 to SIS day to run district
court during the trial OF jury
cases. not counting witness fees
and other costs paid by the los
ing marty. and which in protract-
ed trials become ruinous to lltl-
giants. Every case appealed means
cost to somebody of from $50
to $500. Every jury case tried
second time because of error in
the first triad means "a cost to tax
payers of from $50 to $75 per day

pueplo Indians at Leon Chautauqua

One Of the most attractive numbers of
the coming Chautauqua course is the
lecture on the Pueblo Indian by DR.. L.
Cole, an enthnologist of highest repute,
who has devoted a quarter of a CEN
fury to the study Of the cliff dwelling
tribes Of this continent. Information
as to the manners, religious peculiarites
and ceremonies of cliff jewellers is hard
TO obtain and dangerous to promulgate.
His lecture is an absorbing relation
OF actual experience among these pc
culiar tribes, which have kept alive
the ancient Aztec religion, its mystic
ceremonies and have transmitted the
mysterious powers of the Aztec prints
from one generation to another since
Coronado forced the mission priests up
on them with fire and sword after the
subjugation Of Mexico.
The lecture is profusely illustrated by
stereoptican slides and by the aid of
band of ten male and female Peublos
who appear upon the platform.
Outside of their sternly guarded So
cret societies he is probably the best
and most intimately informed man up
on the Peublo Indians living. The lcc-
ture covers the early Spanish mission.
the home, family and commercial life of
the Indians, their pottery, basket work,
weaving and the strange fantastic rit-
uals Of their religion. 1t is something
new, glimpse Of an American people
less known and understood than the
bushman of Australia.
