According to statement of the Ma
tional 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 sufi-

SENSE ABOUT FOOD
Facts About Food Worth Knowing,

It 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: Il
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 lightest food,
and then suffer such agony with my
stomach l would wish l never had to
eat anything.
Il was urged to try Grape-Nuts and
since using it | do not have to starve
myself any more, but can eat it at
any time and feel nourished and salts
fed, dyspepsia is a thing of the past,
and l 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 off, 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..

the great uourishiug elements in

1t is a 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
when they become sick begin to pour

way is to stick to proper food and

The complete success of the new
fuel while on the 2650-mile public
test and the advantages gained
through its use were well described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion of
the tour:
"a feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero-
sene, or coal OIL as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 2650-mile
journey, and all claims made in it's
behalf were fully proven. First of
all, as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from cents to 10 cents cheap
line. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per-
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place, without
draining it's fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly,
kerosene could be purchased at what.
ever part of the route was most con,
venient, and not once during the trip
through the ten States of the Middle
West was there found grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply obtainable. Finally, the
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1909-09-10

amcint of fuel used on the trip
showed that kerosene is at least
fifteen per cent. more efficient, gallon
for gallon, than gasoline. The car in
other respects made a most creditable
showing, and there was the usual Tiy-
airy among the observers to be as
signed to the White so that they
could ride with the maximum of COM
fort. The only adjustments or re-
pairs charged against the car during
the long trip were tightening lubri-
Gator pipe and wiring damaged mud
guard. These penalties were not in
flicted until more than 1000 miles
had been completed with an absolute
ly perfect score"
A particularly interesting feature
of the new White Steamer is that
either kerosene or gasoline may be
used as fuel. The necessary adjust
from kerosene to gasoline, or vice
versa, may be made in couple Of
minutes; but so completely successful
has kerosene proved to be, that it is
not believed that any purchasers will
care to use gasoline.
The White Company report that
the demand for their new steam cars
both the $2000-model and the
| 4O0O-model-exceed their most san
guine expectations. 1t is evident that
the combination of steam-the pow
er which everyone understands and
has confidence in-with kerosene
the fuel which everyone has on hand
and can handle without any danger
lis thoroughly appreciated by
up-to-date purchasers of automo-
J biles.
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1909-09-10

The most interesting announce
ment ever made in connection with
the automobile industry was I'M
doubtedly that made a month or two
ago to the effect that the new models
of the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene, or coal oil, instead of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
nized that the use of the new fuel
would add materially to the advan-
tages which the White already pos
sessed over other types of cars.
There were some people, however,
who were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success, and, therefore, the
makers of the White Car, the White
Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, deter
mined to make a public demonstra-
ton of the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint of the public,
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First of all, the dis.
lance covered on the Glidden Tour
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient tc
bring out any weaknesses, if such had
existed. Still more important was
the fact that the car was at all times
while on the road under the supervi
