The Rounder Says

you have eaten 7.1763O3. ounces OF food
of which there was 12.469243 percent of
animal fat, 6.431763 percent of yege-
table fat, S.e5321S per cent of proteids,
etc, etc.
1t is said that one day after Mr..
Gridge had eaten meal and the cook
brought in the pad which showed the
percent of this and that which the
foo contained, he suddenly became very
sick.
You have made a terrible mistake"
said he to the cook, You have put
.475362 percent of casin in my dinner
when there should have been but
2354S2 percent. The cook knew that
her reputation was at stake. She went
into the laboratory which is in connec-
ton with the kitchen and figured her
averages over again.
In a couple of hours she returned to
the bedroom where Mr.. Bridge lay suf-
efring. Her face was radiant Il have
it," said she, i made mistake in flg-
uring the percent. I find that after all
there was 475362 percent of casin in
your dinner.
Mr.. Bridge jumped to his feet with
all of the energy of school boy. Why,
turning to Mrs. Bridge he said, We'll, !
guess we can go to that bridge whist
party after all"
Almost any night two men may be
seen carrying a stretcher down the
street upon which is the form of boy
covered with white sheets. AS the Pc
cuIiar trio pass through the busy por-
af-
tract the attention of every one who
sees them.
They take up position in front OF
Towle's opera house where they are
Joined by others until there are pos
sibly dozen to a score of people
standing the cot In circle
1t is the Nazarine mission holding its
religious meetings on the street corner
There is singing and praying and some
one stands over, Lawn Loomis, the body
on the cot, and fans him.
1t is a grewsome sight calculated to
send the shivers up and down the spine
of the average person who would moi
| think of such a plan to bring the sinner
to judgment.
Sunday night the Nazerines stood il
front of Towle's opera house. They
did 1t last year and they have begun
again this year. The whole plan seem:
to be a deliberate one make horrible
examples of the people who go to th'
shows Sunday night.
Most people look upon it as a rathe
mean way of blacklisting an attraction
which many people can see no othel
evening than Sunday. The police hav'
been asked several times why thos'
people were allowed 10 block up thu
| sidewalk when anybody else would b.
required to move on.
OF course. no one denies the Maze
rines the right to hold a public servic'
on the street No one denies them thu
right to make a sickening public ex
hibition of an invalid boy. 1t is an in
justice to permit these people to blocl
a main thoroughfare, block the side
walks of main street and hold re
| lgious meeting in the foyer of thea
| ter.
! 1t is a case where the religious en-
| thusiasm of a crowd blinds it to an!
sense of fairness and justice which i
may have towards its unbelieving fel
| lows.

WORK HAS NOW BEGUN
Homewood People Bewild-
cred to Find That Pave
ment Has Started.

People of Homewood were perplexed,
fed when they saw that work had actu-
ally begun on the improvement Of
South Holman street.
For two years and half or one two
hundredths of an ordinary mans life
time, they have seen poor old Holman
street ripped up the back by the sewer
builders, torn into shreds by the plumb
ers making water and sewer connec-
tions. flooded by rains and blown into
their parlors by the dry winds.
At last the most dramatic point in
the history of the street has arrived.
For two years the people have been
waiting or the climax. 1t came this
morning
Two wagons appeared on the scene
, this modning. The first shovel full of
dirt was not removed with silver
spade as should have been done in the
case of all big undertakings. There
was no ceremony except the muttered
blessings Of the residents of the street
who had hoped that nothing would
happen TO injure single hair on sig
= gle head of a son of sunny Italy who
happened to be working on the job.
Already the plans for the defeating
of the street are being laid. 1t is to
be celebrated by a champagne supper
at some of the well known eating
places. The sun shines brightly on
Homewood today. Holman street Will
soon be on the automobile map again

INVENTION A SUCCESS
Enterprise Bed Company
Look For Big Years
Business.

Mr.. George c. Locklin, of the Enter
prise Bed Company. has a great deal
of confidence in his bed tent which was
recently invented. and is now being
manufactured at the local plant.
Mr.. Locklin says had 1t not been for
the great demand for the tent bed. the
local plant would not have been nearly
as busy as it has been during the past
few months.
As the tent bed was not put on the
market until after the best season for
its sale was past, the number of orders
which have been received are remark
able.
1t is expected that the demand next
year will tax the capacity of the plant
and Mr. Locklin is making plans to
take care of the expected orders. The
tent has now been thoroughly tried out
and has been found to be thoroughly
practical.
Mr.. Locklin plans a strenuous adver-
Using campaign in the next two or
three months for he says that no mat
ter how good an article you have, it
can not be sold unless it is properly
advertised.

Have you got the Battle Creek bug.
Louden Bomberger and W. F. Bridge
have and If you don't want to be slap
ped in the face with the average man
is victim of administration" or
some lingo about the precent of pro-
teids reep away.
The manner in which the average
man becomes imbued with the Battle
Creek idea is wonderful. He leaves for
the famous resort a discouraged,
broken down shadow of his former self.
Battle Creek is always the last resort
When he comes back in a few weeks
ne may not weigh any more He really
may not be in any better physical con-
dition, or he may be greatly improved
but you will notice that he has cut out
worrying. He throws his shoulders
back when he walks. He contracts his
biceps frequently. He tells his friends
that he never felt better IN his life
He will confde to you that he sleeps
out on the back porch, that he has rig
ged up a sun parlor in the attic where
he strips off his clothes and bakes for
hours at a time He tells you that he
is taking a cold bath every morning
ard every evening and that he had
substituted peanut butter for the old
product.
And then there is the old Indian gag.
The Battle Creek man will tell you
that we wear too much clothes. At the
present moment if Bridge and Bonn
Hammond would be going down Hob
berger had their way the people of
man street like Adams and Ewes.
They tell the story at Battle Creek,
said W. f Bridge. that a white man
wrapped up in his winter fiannels and
an overcoat once met Indian who
wore only a pair of trousers. Why, l
should think you would be freezing to
DEATH said the white man, your face
cold? asked the Indian. of course not
replied the white man. Me all face
was the Indians explanation.
The Battle Creek man is fed that
kind of philosophy in big chunks. He
swallows that whether it has the prop
er percent of proteids or not.
He doesn't masticate it either. He
Just guIps it down in chunks. If you
happen TO get into one sanitarium In
Battle Creek they cure you by starv-
ing you and if you happen to get into
another they cure you by feeding you
ell you can get into stomach.
Both cures are equally effective. In
stead or auto lntOXlcdllOn the cure d.
Battle Creek consists of auto-hynotism
Suggestion has the greatest curative
powers of anying in the world.
You are not continually being told
at Battle Greek that you look as though
YOU have one foot in the grave In
stead you are lead to believe that you
never felt better in your life and II
does not take long to persuade. even
your shot-to-pieces body that there 1;
nothing wrong after all and the OLD
hulk takes a decided brace as a result

a mans physical stock its buyancy and
makes it finally sell at par.
To get into home that has beer
Battle Creeked is a revelation. The
cook is a chemist and her diploma
ghangs on the wall of the kitchen. You
are served a meal and after you are
through she brings in little pad upon
which is a chemical analysis of all the
food you have eaten. The component
parts of each food are properly classi-
fed in the various columns and yol

HEARD ON THE BOURSE.

w. T. Gregson-We look for this
market to do better and advise pur-
chase of October ribs on setbacks for
good profits.
Pringle- Fftch-Wheat prices may go
lower on the movement, but if the
weak spots do come we advise buying
December wheat on them.
Logan & Bryan-Any further decline
in wheat we feel will result in export
business.
Ware & Leland-We look for pres

dip in wheat during the early part of
the week, we would suggest pur-
chases for a turn.
