HIS TURN CAME.
The Way the Liquor Man Got Ever
With the Bank Teller.

The Way the Liquor Man Got Even
With the Bank Teller.
Many years ago there lived in Rut-
land, VT, two men who bore the same
name, which name we will call W. o.
Jones. One Of these men was a dap
per young bank teller; the other was
enga ged in running a cigar store with
a saloon attachment in the rear. This
was in the days Of prohibition In Yer
mont. Every three or four weeks the
latter Jones would be hailed into the
police court and fined for liquor sell
ing, which was chronicled regularly in
the daily papers. The bank teller grew
nervous about it, and one morning this
announcement appeared: "W. o. Jones.
the popular young bank teller Of the
understood that he is in no way con-
nected with the saloon keeper and
hopes their names may not be con-
founded"
Now, it transpired that few months
afterward this young teller failed to
appear one morning at his accustomed
window at the bunk. Upon a hasty
examination it was found that 5000
or more Of the funds of the bank had
also disappeared. The wires were
called into requisition Immediately
and after a few days he was located
in Denver. 1t was the old story. he
was brought back, incarcerated, tried
etc.
It was now the saloon keepers turn
and this notice was duly published in
the same paper that issued the pre-
vious one: wv. o. Jones, the widely
known business man Of Merchants
row, wishes it to be understood that he

Jones, the defaulting bank teller now
in Jail, and hopes their names may mo-

FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
Mr.. JAMES S. SHERMAN

WIN JAmE D. n WAN
The nomination of James Scnoolcraft
Sherman, OF New York, for vice presi-
dent, was move well founded on log
ic and conservatism. An able practic.
ing attorney for nearly twenty years, a
member of the National House of Rep,
with the voters of his home state, Mr.
Sherman may be counted upon as ma
terialy Strengthening the ticket, in
spite of the fact that he has not been
before the public eye except in New
York. At Washington, he enjoys the
confidence Of President Roosevelt and
has always been one of the leaders in
the House in favor of the Roosevelt,
policies.
With the naming of an Ohio man te
head the ticket, and the choice being
so unanimous. it was rare stroke Of
political diplomacy upon the part Of
the convention to nominate the New
York man as his running mate. A:
was shown at Chicago, the great Wes
is openly and unqualifiedly for Mr.
Taft. The personality of the principa
nominee can carry for his party thi:
section of the country. But in tn,
Empire State, the state patriotism o
the New Workers demanded that on,
of their own sons have a place on thi
ticket. The Hughes boom failed ant
when the party leaders suggested MI
Sherman. New York enthusiasticall,
pledged itself to deliver to the part,
in next November, the electoral vot
of that state.
Mr. Sherman is about the same ag
as Mr.. Taft and his record as a pub
lie servant is nearly as long. He wa
admitted to the bar at Utica, his ma
tive city, in 1850. In 1854 he wa
elected mayor of Utica, where he sery
ed with distinct credit. Beginning
1890, he was elected to the Fiftietl

Even Buds Grow Old.

According to a government botanist
at Washington, there is reason to be-
lieve that buds share in the growing
old Of the parent plant. He illustrates
his meaning in this way: Suppose the
average life Of an individual plant
say tree-to be 100 years; then a bud
removed when the parent plant is fifty
years old will also be virtually fifty
years Of age and if transplanted by
grating will be able to live on the
graft only fifty years more.

A lady writer who not only has
done good literary work, but reared
a family, found in Grape-Nuts the
ideal food for brain work and to de-
velop healthy children. She writes:
al am an enthusiastic proclaimer of
Grape-Nuts as regular diet. ! for
merly had no appetite in the morning
and for years while nursing my four
children, had insufficient nourishment
for them.
Unable to eat breakfast I felt faint
later. and would go to the pantry and
eat cold chops. sausage, cookies,
doughnuts or anything happened to
find. Being a writer, at times my
head felt heavy and my brain asleep.
when l read of Grape-Nuts l be-
gan eating it every morning, also
gave It to the children, including my
10 months old baby. who soon grew
as fat as little pig, good natured
and contented.
81 wrote evenings and feeling the
need of sustained brain power, began
eating small saucer of Grape-Nuts
with milk, instead of my usual indi-
gestible hot pudding, pie, or cake for
dessert at night.

A noted veterinarian of Canada
says that one full feed per day of hay
is enough for horse; that because
the work horses are busy In crop
time they only get one full feed of
hay every twenty-four hours, but in
the winter are frequently allowed to
stand and eat hay all day. He says
that a horse to he in perfect health
should have the stomach emptied of
the previous meal for two or three
hours before he is given another. If
such is not the case, digestion will
not take place in a perfect manner,
and disease is likely to result. There
is remarkable sympathy between
the stomach and the lungs, because
of the fact that the same nerve trunk
supplies nerve force to both organs.
When the stomach is deranged from
improper feeding the lungs are liable
to become alphabetically affected
and heaves often result. Care should
also be taken that a horse should be
fed no dusty or musty hay. This
DUST is as light as air, and the horse
in breathing draws it right into the
lung tissue with every breath. and
this substance being an irritant, is
very prone to develop the heaves. If
no better hay can be obtained, the
dust should be laid by sprinkling with
water. when the horse will not
breathe 1t, but will be swallowed with
his feed and probably do him no
harm; but when at all possible only
bright, clean hay. free from dust,
should be fed to horses. Again no
horse is in fit condition for active
exercise with a stomach distended
with hay, because the stomach stu
ated as It is right behind the lung
space. If full. fbulges forward into
the chest to such an extent that the
lungs have not room to properly ex-
pand, and cannot perform their func-
tons properly; and anything that in
teTferes with the function of the
lungs predisposes to heaves. In many
cases If farmers would feed one-third
less hay to idle horses in the winter
months they would come out in the
spring in better condition.-Indiana

More lumber was cut in the United
States last year than in any other
year in Its history. The enormous
amount of s7,55o,7ss board feet
was produced, and the mill vaue OF
this was s631, 151,3Ss. In addition.
there we're produced i1,s5s,2e0.0 900
shingles. valued at s24,155.555. and
S,sf2.s07 900 lath, valued at sft,-
49O.570 On the whole, 1t is safe
to say that the present annual ium-
Der cut of the United States approx
mates 40 billion feet, and that the
total mill value of the lumber, Iath.
and shingles each year produced is
not less than s700.0o0.0oO. These
figures give some idea of how vast is
the lumber industry and how great
Is the demand for its products.
A glance at the kinds OF lumber
produced shows very clearly the
passing Of white pine and oak, one
the greatest softwood and the other
the greatest hardwood which the for
est has ever grown. Since 1893 the
cut Of white pine has fallen OF more
than 40 per cent. while that of
white oak has fallen of more than
SO per cent. To-day yellow pine
leads all other woods in amount cut,
while Douglas fir-and this will be
a surprise to many--comes second.
Since 1890 the cut OF Douglas fir has
increased 1856 per cent Louisiana

sas following in order. Washington

Prime bacon hogs can be grown
as well or better in this country than
anywhere in the world, and IL there
is a demand for leaner bacon hogs
they will be forthcoming. 1t need
not be expected. however, that feed
ers will take the pains the Danish.
English or Canadian feeders do,
fussing with ground stuffs of differ
ent sorts without getting equal COM
pensation. The pea, rye, barley and
shorts fed hogs are calculated to be
worth close to two cents per pound
more on the hoof than corn-fed bacon
hogs and II that is true packers will
have to make up their minds to give
at least one dollar per hundred pre-
MUM on that class of stock to get it.
Peas. barley. rye and mixed grains
are as easily raised in this country as
corn, but corn feeding is the simp-
lest and easiest method of hog feed
ing and. therefore, much cheaper here
than any other kind.-Epitomist

Ex-senator william NJ. Stewart Of

Work stock will do more effective
pulling when hitched reasonably
close to their load.
Do not check work teams high.
They want to put their heads down
and stretch their necks freely when
pulling.
Hay made of melilotus (sweet clo-
ver), pea-vines. alfalfa. or any of the
clovers will call for less grain when
fed to work stock.
Live stock and manure mean profit
for the farmer and fertility for the
soil; and nothing has ever been
found that will take their places.
Rather than to sell grain or hay
off the farm, feed it all at home and
buy more. Buying more is buying
fertility from other farms to enrich
your own.

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 1t is a Food for
Brain and Nerve Centresd Is based
upon the fact that Certain parts of
Wheat and Barley (which we use)
contain Natures BRAIN and nerve
building ingredients, viz, Phosphate
of Potash, and the way we prepare
the food makes it 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-huid, 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
manufacture the elixir of life. There
fore, when nervous symptoms arise.
due to the fact that the nerve-fuid
has been exhausted from any cause,
the phosphate of potassium is the
only true remedy, because nothing
else can possibly supply the de-
ficiency.
"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 1t 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 pro-
cesses 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 1t and note
how quickly the equilibrium will be
restored and calm and reason assert
her throne. No 'provings' are re-.
quired here. We find this potassium
salt largely predominates in nerve
fluid, and that deficiency produces
weIl-defned symptoms. The begin
ming and end of the matter is to sup
ply the lacking principle, and in
molecular form, exactly as nature
furnishes it in vegetables. fruits and
grain. To supply deiiciencles-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.
Those who have been helped to better
health by the use of Grape-Nuts are
legion.

The House of Representative has
set useful precedent in applaudlng
the prayer. In the first place, II was
short; In the second, 1t was racy;
then, too, 1t was fairly accurate
definition of what the House wants.
As custom there would be advan-
tages in a general expression of as
sent on such occasions. Disapproval
of lengthy petition could be shown
by respectful silence; appreciation
could be expressed as the House ex-
pressed 1t. Now and then a respon-
sive congregation which sincerely de-
sires to show its approval of the
minister's utterances is reduced to
rustling its gloves and shaking out
its skirts. Repression is good for
