NO MEDICINE
But a Change of Food Gave Relief.

Many persons are learning that
drugs are not the thing to rebuild
worn out nerves, but proper food is
required.
There is a certain element in the
cereals. wheat, barley etc. which is
grown there by nature for food to brain
and nerve tissue. This is the phos-
phate of potash, Of which Grape-Nuts
food contains large proportion.
In making this food all the food ele
ments in the two cereals, wheat anc
barley, are retained. That is why so
many heretofore nervous and run down
people find in Grape-Nuts true nerve
and brain food.
Il can say that Grape-Nuts food has
done much for me as a nerve renew

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The trade reporting agencies md that
retail trade shows greater activity.
Dun's says to-day:
The near advent Of the holidays and
the close OF the year naturally curtails
operations in most primary markets,
though retail trade is correspondingly
augmented and every indication points
20 a very large distribution OF merechan-
disc The high prices constitute a most
unfavorable feature OF the business out
look but the wealth OF the country, and
especially OF the farmers, is so great and
Is growing so rapidly that the tide OF
prosperity in 1910 may easily rise above
every obstacle. Not only has prosperity
returned to the normal but II IS also a
fact OF fundamental importance that the
structure OF business. through the bet
ter organization OF credits and industry,
Is stronger than ever before. Bank clear
Ings and railroad earnings maintain their
notable rate of gains over precedinE
years the former averaging IL per cent
larger than a year and as per cent. more
than in December. 1906, year OF great
activity, while railroad earnings for No
vember are io5 per cent. over last year
Pointing in the same direction OF re-
newed commercial vitality are the reduc.
ell business failures, which, taking into
account the volume OF transactions, arc
now at nearly their lowest rate.

CANT LOCATE
CAUSE OF TYPHOID

The officers OF the Board OF Health
are at loss TO explain the reason for
the prevalence Of typhoid fever In the
Ninth ward. out Of the forty cases
in the city, twenty-five are in that
section. Two deaths have occurred.
and another patient is in a critical
condition. It Is understood, however,
that the others are on a fair road to
recovery.
An investigation was made by Secre-
tary Joseph Wigglesworth, Of the de-
partment. and he said to-day that he
could assign no cause for the unusual
prevalence OF the sickness in that part
Of the city.
Mr.. Wigglesworth found that with
one exception. the AFFLICTED families
used city water. Well water Is used
by one family. and a meteorological
examination will be made OF this.
The cause for the prevalence OF the
sickness cannot be assigned TO milk,
because the twenty-five families have
eleven different milk men supplying
them with milk. IL was also found
that all the properties except one
where there are sewer facilities, are
connected with the sewer. About half
the families live on streets where there
arc no sewers.

firmed to-day by Henry G. Walsh, sec
retary Of the club. IL was reported
that his resignation was due TO the

tary Walsh says his letter made no

When the club began to show it's
hostility to DIR. Cook, General Greeley,
himself n famous Arctic explorer, came
out with a statement in which he ex-
pressed the fullest confidence in DR..
Cook.
The Explorers Club invited DR.. Cook
10 attend a dinner during the Hudson
Fulton celebration, but when the news
came that Commander Peary. president
of the club. had reached the pole the
club avoided the dinner by announcing
that II would not be given on account
of the activities Of the Hudson-Fulton

CITY MAY GET
TRENTON TEAM

It IS said that Trenton cannot raise SUI
fcient cash 10 guarantee a Trl-State base
bail team next year and indications point
to a transfer OF the Trenton franchise to
Wilmington. Manager Heckert has been
in Trenton all week trying TO raise funds
sufficient TO guarantee q team. Andrew
Lynch, who owns the Trenton franchise,
lost money last season, and he is OF the
opinion that Trenton people should give
him some financial assistance next sea-
son. He has a good offer from Whining
ION. it is said. but as yet no money has
been raised at Trenton.
