OLD AT TWENTY. 4 Return of Youth With Proper Food.

Many persons who eat plenty never seem to be properly nourished.
 That's because the food Is not digested and absorbed. Much that is eaten Is never taken up by the system as real food, and so the tissues simply starve and the individual may, as in recent case, look and feel old in what should be the bloom of life, youth.
 At twenty I was prematurely old. All the health and vigor and brightness of youth had been, as it seemed, stolen from me. I went to work In the morning with slow steps and dull head.
 My work through the day was unsatis- factory for my breakfast lay in my stom- ach like a hard lump. I was peevish and the gas in my stomach was very annoy ing. After supper I usually went to bed to toss half the night from sheer nervous ness
 This was all from indigestion-wrong eating.
 Finally I tried Grape-Nuts and cannot describe the full benefits received from that food. It gave me back my health. It has completely restored good digestion and relieved me of my ailments. I steadily improved and am now strong and in per feet health"

 TALKS ABOUT ROOSE TEL 2

lieve that Roosevelt Is serious, and do believe that he is much on the style of the grand stand.'
 MT. Newbanks, who is in the south on official business, stated that he was a personal acquaintance of William Willet the congressman of the Fourteenth dis trict of New York.
 ',I was not surprised that Willet made such remarks, and you may expect others of similar vein from other congress- men," he said Roosevelt is going out of office in whrlwind of violent har- rangue, and I predict that there will be much of the sensational between this date and March 4. Rooseyelt's innate conceit has arraigned many members of Congress against him. It is true that Roosevelt believes that Tafts recent sue cess was due to the influence of the big stick whereas we all know that the utterances of Roosevelt and Nicholas, his son-in-law. really handicapped the Pres ident-elect.'

$4OOO VERDICT
 FOR ALIENATION

A suit of quite novel features was ond division of the city court yesterday morning, charging that the defendant in the case had caused an alienation of att tentions on the part of the plaintiffs hus- band, Mrs. Maggie Diener had entered suit against Bell Peterborough for s25, 900, and when the case was heard yesterday the jury awarded the plaintiff s4O00 dam ages.
 The bill of complaint on which the suit was based charged that the ''plaintiff and her mother used all of their ingenuity and skill in inducing and trying to persuade plaintiffs husband to abandon plaintiff, heaping abuse and insults upon said plain- tiff, arousing a feeling of hate and preju- dice in the mind of her said husband against plaintiff and finally succeeding in alternating her said husbands feelings and attention from her which finally cul- minated in her husband committing a violent assault and battery unpon plain tiff and husband abandoning plaintiff and his child and going to defendants home and home of defendants mother"
 It was brought out in the evidence that the defendant was sister of the plain tiff's husband and was from Illinois, and that the sister persuaded Diener to go back to the north, where they had in- herited sum of money, with view, 1t is alleged, of getting a divorce from the present wife and marrying into society.

EXPLAINS MEANING
 OF OATH TO CHILD

In the case of Walter B. Whitfield. A white man, charged with one of the worst of crimes, who was on trial in the first di- vision of the criminal court yesterday aft ernoon, Anna Shetland. a pretty little S. year-old girl, was one of the chief wit nesses. When the little girl was placed on the witness stand Judge Dan A. Greene realized that the meaning of the customary and you do solemnly swear that the evidence given in this cause shall be the truth. the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God" would not be comprehended by the little witness. and his manner of swearing the little girl was unusual.
 Anna, do you go to Sunday school?' asked JudgeGreene.
 ''Yes sir" replied the little girl.
 ''Who made you, Anna"
 God"
 Anna, do you know what becomes of little girls who tell stories.'
 '.Yes sir. The bad man gets them and puts them in the fire."
 ''Do you know what they do with little girls who swear lies in court?" asked Judge Greene.
 ''Yes sir. They get them arrested and get them put in jail." the little girl re- piled with a smile.
 That's right" replied his honor; "and, Anna, there are lots of men who are not put in jail who ought to be put in for swearing lies.''
 It was in this manner that Judge Greene gave the pyetty little witness the understanding of the oath.

LITTLE GIRL IS VICTIM
 OF INFURIATED DOG

Twenty-second and Twenty-third streets to attack two men who were coming down the avenue he overlook it. boldly took hold of the animal and stabbed it with a knife which he carried. For fear of being bitten he had to turn the dog loose and it ran off down the street
 Shortly after o'clock last night off cers at police headquarters were notified that a mad dog was causing much excite ment in the western part of the North side and it is believed that this dog was the same one that bit the little Temple man girl. Every effort was made to find the dog after it bit the child but it was not located.
 Much fear is entertained for the little girl. While it cannot be positively stated that the dog was mad it's actions would indicate that such was the case.

That Roosevelt's unpopularity with Con- gress Is due to the belief of Congress that Roosevelt is not sincere. or In other words is "hypocrit," Is the belief of Walter Newbanks. a New Jersey banker. who was registered in the city yesterday.
 Mr Newbanks stated the animosity Is not due to the fact that Roosevelt has eensured certain members of the Con sress and consigned others to the Ana nlas club" Congress, had Roosevelt given no other cause for attack than his recent message to the House, would have passed over this matter and the people today would not have witnessed the pres ent spectacle of the chief executive ar- rayed on one side and the lawmakers on the other" said MT. Newbanks.
 'The special message, however, served as an excuse for Congress to express to Roosevelt Just what Congress thought Of him. Whether their belief is accurate or not, it is true, nevertheless, that the con gressmen of the United States do not be-
