st. Louis, Mo.-The most hopeful
sign of an improvement soon to come
In the condition of business is the for
nation of the National Prosperity AS
ISOLATION of St. Louis, with its slogan,
Let us Alone" and its platform,
"Give us rest and sunshine"
Numerous organizations through
out the country have taken up the
matter, and already the outlook is
brighter.
All thinking men agree that the
two greatest curses in this country
are the politicians and the yellow
journals, and any association formed
to combat the harm they have done
and are doing can but result in good
for the country.
The National Prosperity Associa-
ton of st. Louis was organized, fol-
lowing an address of B. f. Yoakum,
chairman of the Executive Board of
the Rock Island Frisco railroads be-
fore the st. Louis Trade Club. His
Let us alone" suggestion was taken
up by the business organizations, and
Give us rest and sunshine" cam
paign planned, under the National
Prosperity Association.
The purpose of the organization
is to inaugurate a national movement
for the restoration of confidence, and
a general revival of commercial and
industrial activity. The platform,
adopted unanimously by the leaders
of the movement, is-To keep the
dinner pail full, to keep the pay car
going. to keep the factory busy, to
keep the workmen employed, to keep
the present wages uD.
The idea spread like wildfire
throughout the country, and to aid in
the dissemination of the cheer the
Executive Committee had printed
100000 copies of the platform.
These, with letters, were sent to
every business, labor and civic organ
ization in the United States.
Through all the avenues of public
ity the give us rest" declaration
has circulated rapidly and effectually
reaching hamlets on the country cross
roads and settlements on the inter-
national boundaries, and from all
parts of the United States are coming
spontaneous responses.
The movement is now far beyond
the period of an exchange of greet
ings and assurances, and there are
numerous tangible evidences that 1t
will lead soon into an actual national
assertion against pernicious agita-
ton. The fair deal, sunshine and
square meal principle is expressed
in all the letters received, and the
officers of the association are aston
ished at the number and tone of let
ters from corporations and individ-
uals in distant parts of the country.
Merchants, railroad men, bankers,
brokers and men conducting every
other sort of business Joined in the
new slogan, "let us alone" sounded
against the indiscriminate faying of
corporate interests.
With one accord they agreed that
1t is time to put stop to the destruc-
tion of economic stability that such a
policy caused.
The most encouraging messages in
the mass received were from New
York, Chicago and Kansas City. The
idea seems to have taken hold almost
instantly in the East and Middle
West.
Assurances of Jealous support were

CHANGE IN FOOD

1t is worth knowing that a change

Grape-Nuts food has cured me of indi-

years, until last year my doctor rec

tions and now 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-Nrts food is that 1t
Is predigested by natural processes,
and therefore does not tax the stom-
ach as the food she had been using;
II also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system.
II that part of the human body is in
perfect working order there can be
no dyspepsia, for nervous energy rep
resents the steam that drives the en-
gine.
When the nervous system is run
down, the machinery OF the body

adults. II is perfectly cooked and

Animals And Rain.

Lions, tigers and all the cat tribe
dread rain" said zoo keeper. ION
a rainy day they tear nervously up
and down their cages, growing and
trembling. We usually give them
an extra ration of hot milk. That
puts them to sleep.
wolves love gray day of rain
They are then very CHEEKY. Treach-
erous as the wolf is, no keeper need
fear him on rainy day. He is too
happy to harm a fly.
Snakes, too, like rain. They perk
up wonderfully as the barometer falls
and the damp makes itself felt in
their warm cases.
Rain makes monkeys glum. They
are apt from instinct, when they
see it through the window, to clasp
their hands above their heads and
sit so for hours. That attitude, you
know, makes a kind of shelter. 1t
is the primitive umbrella"

COMPLAINTS ABOUT PAINT.

The time to complain about paint
is before the painter applies It. The
man who puts up the money should
not shirk the responsibility of choos-
ing the paint. True, the painter
ought to know paint better than the
banker, the professional man or the
merchant. The trouble is, the house
owner too often deliberately bars the
competent and honest painter from
the job by accepting a bid which he
ought to know would make an honest
Job impossible.
Secure your bids on the basis of
National Lead Company's pure White
Lead and pure Linseed Oil and see
that you get these materials.
No one need be fooled by adulter-
ated white lead. A blowpipe testing
outfit will be mailed to anyone inter-
ested in paint.
