Omitted Word "Hats.r

Lincoln, June 3.-Just because a
careless operator omitted one word
from telegram that Dave Nefsky
sent to his son, Samuel, then in New
York, buying goods for new store
they proposed opening, the Postal
Telegraph company rs asked to come
into court with $4,000 for the Nefskys.
Samuel was busy rounding up the
marts of commerce in the metropolis
when this telegram was handed him:
Don't buy any; bought a full line on
good proposition" Samuel immedi-
ately cancelled all of his orders and
came back home. Father wanted to
know where all the goods were. Sam
uel said he didn't buy any after he
got that telegram. Then it was dis
covered that the telegraph company
had omitted the word hats" after
don't buy any" and so samuel had
to hike back to New York again.
There he found that prices had risen,
that he had to expend $4,000 more for
the same stock of goods, and this he
includes In his claim for damages.
The remainder of the claim is made
up of $1,000 for the profit he lost and
$500 for the mental anguish and cost
OF the trip to New York again.

ORIGIN
OF a Famous Human Food.

The story of the great discoveries
or inventions is always of interest.
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered- by lack of bodily
strength and vigor and could not carry
out the plans and enterprises he knew
how to conduct, was led to study va
rious foods and their effects upon the
human system. In other words, be
fore he could carry out his plans he
had to fin a food that would carry
him along and renew his physical and
mental strength.
He knew that a food which was a
brain and nerve builder (rather than
a mere fat maker) was universally
needed. He knew that meat with the
average man does not accomplish the
desired results. He knew that the
soft gray substance in brain and
nerve centers is made from Albumen
and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solve
the problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts, the now famous
food. 1t contains the brain and nerve
building food elements in condition
for easy digestion.
The result of eating Grape-Nuts
daily is easily seen in a marked sturGi-
ness and marked activity of the brain
and system, making it a
pleasure for one to carry on the daily
duties without fatigue or exhaustion.
Grape-Nuts food is in no sense a
stimulant but is simply food which
renews and replaces the daily waste
of brain and nerves.
FITS favour is charming and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory it is served instantly with
cream.
The signature Of the brain worker
spoken of, C. w. Pos. is to be seen on
each genuine package of Grape-Nuts.
Look in pkgs. for the famous little
book, 1.-The Road to MELVILLE"

for his rheumatic legs, he was shipped
to his new home by rail.
Little Edna, the family f~our-year-old.

time gazing disconsolately out of the

Harvest Of Two Rows Of Ben Davis.
the returns from which are included
in the report.
The varieties were chiefly Baldwin
and Ben Davis, but Stark, winesap,
Grimes golden, king, Belmont, Bell
flower, Fameuse, Rome Beauty, Wal
bridge, pippins and a few others were
represented. A few plots of Baldwin
and Ben Davis were sprayed with Bor-
deaux mixture before blooming but
most of the orchard received no treat
ment, except the spring application of
~lime-sulphur until after the petals fell.
AS 500 as possible after the blossoms
fell the entire orchard was given a
heavy spraying with %arsenate of lead
alone, or with arsenate of lea CON-
bined with Bordeaux mixture. The
Baldwins were several days advanced
before spraying commenced but the
Ben Davis were exactly right.
The spraying outfit consisted of a
IL horsepower gasoline engine, a $50
gallon tank and tower, mounted on
trucks, and was easily drawn by one
strong horse. The bamboo poles were
ten feet long, and n handled by the
man on the tower being further length
ened by a light brass extension about
three feet long. A "~gooseneck" or
crook was used at the end of each rod
to give a downward angle to the noz-
zle, thus directing the spray straight
into the calyx cups.

PARAGRAPHS OF WISDOM

Keeping a cow because she is pretty
may be all right as far as it goes, but
1t is not good business.
No ever heard of the time when
the best fruit would not sell at a fair
price somewhere within a days drive
of the grower.
Farmers are the only producers
who allow the buyer to fix the price
of their property. But they are rap
idly changing this state of affairs by
organization.
The sunrise farmer will scarcely
know hard times if they come, say
ten years hence; but the never-get-
busy-till-afternoon chap will be calam-
ity bowling about every day.
An old mower run up and down the
sides OF the public road around the
farm will get away with the weeds.
Not you business? Perhaps not,
strictly; but the satisfaction of a
clean highway will be yours.
The primary object of cultivating
crops is to keep the soil In good con.
DIXON, but II it were not for weeds q
lot of farmers would neglect this i'm
portant work. Sometimes our bless.
ings come in disguise.

JACKSON.
New Move to Save Smith


c. r. Smith, the wealthy Lowndes
county planter, whose sentence for the
murder of +. A. Laurent, a prominent
Nashville travelling man, was affirmed
by the supreme court, will not imme-
diately don prison stripes. Attorneys
for the appellant ave served notice
that a suggestion of error will be filed,
and this will delay the %suanc of a
mandate by the clerk of the supreme
court until the process is disposed of.
The supreme our had adjourned for
the ummer, and it will, therefore, be
impossible to get a hearing on the sug.
gestion of error until the October term.
The supreme court will probably have
to deal with Smiths financial affairs at
its next sitting, the appellant having
conveyed all of his property to his
daughter, and it is alleged that this
transfer was made for the express pur-
pose of rendering it impossible for the
family of Laurent to successfully re.
cover in the $780, 900 damage suit they
have filed against him on account of the
tragedy.
