Treat The Boys Kindly.

II is all very well, when you

to talk about keeping the boys on
the farm, but you might as we'll

ceive decent treatment at home.

me that should not talk too
much, as she thought it might

many of US talk too much. This
is true among many church peo

quoting Scripture, and too little

to notice this, as was the case of
two good men who were my ia

How Prof. Anderson Invented
Foods Shot from Guns

He was seeking way to break up
starch granules, SO the digestive juices
could get to them.
Cooking or baking only begins to
do that. No old-time method breaks
up all of the granules.
SO he conceived the idea of blasting
those granules to pieces by an explo-
sion of steam.
And these foods resulted-the most
delicious, most digestible cereal foods
ever created.

The whole wheat or rice kernels are put into
sealed guns. Then the guns are revolved for
sixty minutes in heat of $50 degrees.
That fierce heat turns the moisture in the
grain to steam, and the pressure becomes tre-

mercy of. this conquering army.
Looking eastward at this moment we
saw a great cloud of dust rising a few
miles below Kansas City. We could
only see it was moving our way, and
we were sure it was body of troops.
Who could it be? Was it reinforce
ments for Price to complete his vic
tory and our desolation. or was it
Pleasanton's cavalry coming to our
relief? We watched the cloud of dust
anxiously as it moved rapidly up the
river. After a little they came UP to
the rear of the Rebel army. Then as
we watched anxiously we saw them
charge upon the Rebel lines. We
now knew it was Pleasanton with his
5000 veteran cavalry, and the for
tunes of battle were changed.
"It proved to be Pleasanton with
5000 fresh troops who had been fol-
lowing from below ever since Price
had left jefferson City. They soon
broke through the Rebel lines and

5000 Against One Small Command.
THE first line of battle was broken in
some confusion, but speedily reformed.
The continued resistance maddened the
rebels until they concentrated about
5000 men on this small command. The
battery boys all stood their ground I'M
til all were shot down. Our men were
shot down after surrendering by jack
man and his guerillas as they lay on the
ground wounded. Except for the per-
sonal interference of General Shelby all
would have been butchered. Twenty

"The Battle of the Blue will always
be an inspiring memory to Topeka be-
cause of the heroism of Topeka men
in that thrilling and important engage
ment where brave Topekans lost their
lives, others as brave were captured
and suffered great privations.
Today is it's anniversary.
The late G. G. Gage of Topeka, one
of the survivors, who was captured and
nearly died from starvation and suf-
ferings on the march with his captors,
commemorated the historic event by
the erection, at his own expense. of
Gage monument, the beautiful and i'm
posing stone, of heroic dimensions, at
Topeka cemetery.
Mr. T. H. Lescher of Topeka, sur
vivor of the Battle of the Blue
which was fought 40 years ago today,
has written the following interesting
description for the State Journal
''The fight at the Big Blue, the Sec
ond days action in the series of en-
gagements, known as the Battle of
Westport, took place Saturday, October
%, 1864. At the close of the pre-
vious days fight the Federals had re-
tired behind their defences on the Big
Blue and it was NOW General Prices
object to break through this line be-
fore the arrival of General Pleasan-
toms force in the rear.
Price Prepares to Move.
"Shelby's and Fagan's divisions
opened the attack on Curtis's right
where a duel with Jennisons, Moon
lights and Blair's brigades was kept
up until afternoon. Across the stream,
Price meanwhile brought up his
wagon train from the rear and pre-
pared to move his whole force across
the river as soon as Shelby obtained a
passage. This was done at o'clock
in the afternoon in front of the Thir-
teenth Kansas regiment. and none too
soon, for Pleasanton was then driving
Marmaduke's division through the
streets of independence. This rear
guard action was nearly a hand to
hand struggle, Marmaduke's men fall
