The Rutland Evening News makes the
reasonable suggestion that the state Of
Vermont is decidedly at fault if there
are not sufficient laws to govern cases
of alleged impurity in elections. The
comment grows out Of recent action
brought in st. Adams. The Rutland con-
temporary has the following: @The
states attorney Of Franklin county fears
that the state laws are not adequate
or full enough to cover the case in st.
Adams where an officer Of the election
Of March 2 is charged with tampering
with ballots. IT Is thought that for this
reason the accused win be able to escape
trial for the offense alleged. Certainly
if Vermont laws are not sufficient to
protect the purity Of elections, it is a
Legislative sin Of omission Of first mag
nitude."

VainIy Seek Health in Southwest

According to statement of the Ma
t1onal Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis fully 1880
persons hopelessly diseased with
tuberculosis annually come to die in
the states of California, Arizona, New
Mexico, Texas and Colorado, most of
them by order of their physicians. The
statement, which is based upon the
testimony of well-known experts, and
all available statistics, shows that at
least so per cent. of those who go to
the southwest every year for their
health are so far advanced in their
disease that they cannot hope for a
cure in any climate, under any cir
cumstances. More than this, at least
so per cent. of these advanced cases
are so poor that they have not suffi-
cient means to provide for the proper
necessaries of life, which means that
4,315 consumptives are either starved
to death or forced to accept charitable
relief every year.

blends who are unable to stand the

which they are untitled and have fall

TURKEYS new NAVY
Sir Douglas Gamble Is Lent by
England to Organize 1t.
Other British Officials Are Instruct
ing the Jealous Turks in Gunnery,
the Use of Torpedoes, Naviga-
ton and Machinery.

Constantinople.-W a German
officer is occupied with recognizing
the army of the Young Turks, a Brit
ish admiral, Sir Douglas Gamble, will
endeavor to turn out a new navy. He
has been lent for the purpose by the
British government, and there are
with him the following instructors:
Lieut.. Tottenham, gunnery; Lieut..
Gwynne. torpedoes; Lieut.. Taught,
navigation, and Engineer Lieut.. Crois-
dale, machinery.
Thanks to the enlightenment and
zeal of Admiral Arif Pasha, minister
of marine, a great deal of prepara-
tory work was got through before the
arrival of Admiral Gamble, so that the
latter found much better material to
work upon than he had been led to
expect.
The vessels had all been locked
and active young officers placed in
command, several of whom had ac-
Quired certain amount of experience
by service in foreign navies. Steam
and gun trials had taken place in Mar
mora, and a squadron had made
cruise in the archipelago.
The younger naval officers are all
very keen as regards their profession,
and AS many have a good knowledge
of English, they have not failed to
acquire such information as could be
obtained from reading English naval
periodicals and books.
Much translating work has been
done since what might be termed the
emancipation of the navy took
place, and the instructors will find
their task much lightened by the zeal
and willingness of both officers and
men.
The first fruit of the British admir-
ais work is to be seen in the dispatch
of the fleet for a short evolutionary
and exercise cruise in the Sea of Mar
mora, preparatory to a more extended
one in the Mediterranean.
The ironclads and cruisers, as they
were prepared for sea, made their

SENSE ABOUT FOOD
Facts About Food Worth Knowing.

1t is a serious question sometimes to
know just what to eat when per-
sons stomach is out of order and most
foods cause trouble.
Grape-Nuts food can be taken at any
time with the certainty that it will
digest Actual experience of people is
valuable to anyone interested in foods.
A Terre Haute woman writes: q
had suffered with Indigestion for about
four years, ever since an attack of ty-
phoid fever, and at times could eat
nothing but the very Hghtest food,
and then suffer such agony with my
stomach / would wish 1 never had to
eat anything.
81 was urged to try Grape-Nuts and
since using it I do not have to starve
myself any more, but 1 can eat it at
any time and feel nourished and salts
fed, dyspepsia is thing of the past,
and 1 am now strong and well.
MY husband also had an experience
with Grape-Nuts- He was very weak
and sickly in the spring. Could not
attend to his work He was under
the doctors care but medicine did not
seem to do him any good until he be-
gan to leave off ordinary food and use
Grape-Nuts. 1t was positively surpris-
ing to see the change in him. He grew
better right of, and naturally he had
none but words of praise for Grape
Nuts
Our boy thinks he cannot eat a
meal without Grape-Nuts, and he
learns so fast at school that his teach
er and other scholars comment on It
/ am satisfied that it is because Of
the great nourishing elements In
Grape-Nuts.'
There's a Reason
1t contains the phosphate of potash
from wheat and barley which combine
with albumen to make the gray mat

1t is pity that people do not know
what to feed their children. There are
many mothers who give their young
sters almost any kind of food and

the medicine down them. The real
way is to stick to proper food and
be healthy and get along without med
