Can Any One Place This Quotation
from Philosopher?

Louis Jones of the Grand opera
house had the blues. His brother, a
colored man. usually in good humor,
had 'em, too. Neither knew just why
he had 'em, but they had 'em just the
same. They talked OF the weather,
the times and dozen other gloomy
subjects. There was nothing sunny
in the soul of patron or a barber.
Finally both sighed in concert and a
barber shop. The colored man was
the first to speak. After several mo-
ments of silence he gave vent to an
other sigh and said:
well. as de old philosopah says:
'Ef yo' amt got nothin.' now's yo'

PURE FOOD.
No Food Commissioner of Any State
Has Ever Attacked the Absolute
Purity Of Grape-Nuts.

Every analysis undertaken shows
this food to be made strictly of Wheat
and Barley. treated by our processes
to partially transform the starch
parts into form of Sugar, and there
fore much easier to digest.
Our claim that it is "Food for
Brain and Nerve Centres" is based
upon the fact that certain parts of
Wheat and Barley (which We use) con-
tain Natures brain and nervebuilding
ingredients. viz: Phosphate Of Pot.
ash. and the way We prepare the food
makes 1t easy to digest and assimilate.
DR.. Geo. w. Carey in his book on
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-fuid. 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.
The ills arising from too rapidly
consuming the gray matter of the
brain cannot be overestimated.
phosphate of Potash. is to my
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-
tertaining 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 nerve-fluid.
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 1t in
vegetables, fruits and grain. To sup
ply deficiencies-this 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.

health by the use of Grape-Nuts are

There is only one way to cure deaf

This tube is infiamed you have a rum

when it Is entirely closed deafness is

BLACK HAND
BADLY BEATEN
A Gang of Italian Bandits Given q
Bloody Repulse by Merchant Of
New Orleans

New Orleans, June 1S.-Following a
series of crimes attributed to social
ed BLACK Hand" societies in the
Italian quarter of the city, one of the
worst tragedies yet connected with
that section took place yesterday
when three Italians were shot to
death.
According to the police these men
were killed as a result of an attempt
to extort money from Pietro Gioacona
a wealthy Italian wine merchant Of
1113 Charles street. Gioacona and his
son told the police that these men had
frequently bought wine from them by
the barrel and had invariably refused
to pay for it. According to their story
the three men forced them to ship a
barrel of wine to a point in Louisiana
yesterday and returned early and or
dered them to prepare a meal
The elder Gioacona suspected that
trouble would ensue and hid a repeat
ing rifle near the table. When one Of
the visiting Italians drew a heavy re-
volver and ordered them to produce
money and other valuables, the elder
GiOacona answered with a shot from
the rife. The man he fired at fell
dead and the other two attempted to
escape. One was killed before he got
ten feet from the table. The other
reached a staircase, only to receive a
bullet in his brain as he started down
the steps, his body falling into the
courtyard below.
I Only one of the Italians who was
killed has been identified. He is known
to the police by the name of Barraca.

TREMENDOUS
APPLAUSE FOR TEDDY
For Forty-Five Minutes There Was

Evoked by His Name

Chicago, June 18.--The second day
of the republican national convention
brought the long expected Roosevelt
yell, whirl- wind OF enthusiasm
(which ragged within the vast amphi-
theater Of the Coliseum for fully forty
five minutes and for slime present
ing to the timid the spectre Of the

otherwise notable for a stirring speech
from the permanent chairman Of the
convention, Sepator Henry Cabot
Lodge of Massachusetts.
"The president" exclaimed Mr..
Lodge. 'is the best abused and most
popular man In the United States to-
day"
This was the long waited signal. In

lertes and was echoed back from the
floor, at first only a tempest of de-
tached yells and cat-calls and shouts

all to the turbulence of the scene.
Amid the tumult the band struck up
but the class Of brass and drums was
completely lost in the babel Of sound
which ,weiled up from $4,000 threats.
For the first minute, Senator Lodge
stood waiting to proceed, occasional
ly raising his hand, for silence, only to
awaken a defiant yell, twice louder
than before.
Five minutes passed, and instead of
atating, the uproar was increasing
Senator Lodge sank back in his chair
to await a lull in the storm.
Five minutes-10 minutes-15 min
utes. There was no lull, no abate-
mGnt. A hoarse roar had taken the
place of the detached yells.
-Four, four, four years more" came
in q deafening chorus from the full
sweep of the gallery. as if preconcert-
ed, each -four, four" exploding like
tho boom Of heavy, artillery.
Fifteen minutes-20 minutes-25
minutes. New delegations were join
ing in the outbreak. Some has mount
Ell chairs-Texas, Kentucky, Tennes-
seC-and were gesticulating madly.
One delegate far to the left had torn
off his coat and was whipping it wild
ly about his head. Texas and Ken
lucky appeared to be the center of the
agitation on the floor. New York
viewed the storm with calm, and so
did Ohio, except, strangely. one of
the Foraker delegates, Judge Marcus
Shoup, who mounted on a chair, kept
both arms in motion, each waving u
flag and a newspaper and his voice
joining in the general pandemonium.
Thirty minutes-35 minutes-3O
minutes-45 minutes.
A full three quarters of an hour
passed in this bewildering confusion
