A GOOD CHANGE
A Change OF Food works wonders.

The wrong food and drink causes a lot
OF trouble in this world. To change the
food is the first duty of every person
that Is i'll, particularly from stomach
and nervous troubles. As an illustration:
A lady in Mo. has, with her husband.
been brought around to health again by
leaving off coffee and some articles Of
food that did not agree with them.
They began using Postum and Grape
Nuts food She says:
For a number Of years I suffered
with stomach and bowel trouble which
kept getting worse until I was very i'll
most of the time. About four years
ago I left off coffee and began taking
Postum. Ny stomach and bowels i'm
proved right along, but / was so reduced
In flesh and so nervous that the least
thing would overcome me.
Then I changed my food and began
using Grape-Nuts in addition to Postum.
l lived on these two principally for about
four months. Day by day / gained In
flesh and strength until now the nervous
trouble has entirely disappeared and 1
feel that l owe my life and health to
Postum and GrRpe-Nuts.
Husband is 70 years old and he was
troubled. for a long time, with occasional
cramps, and slept badly. Finally 1 pre-
vailed upon him to leave off coffee and
take Postum. He had stood out for a
long time, but after he tried Postum for
a few days he found hat he could sleep
and that his cramps disappeared. He
was satisfied and has never gone back to
coffee.
Il nav a brother in California who
has been using Postum for several years;

have had such good results from it,"

Traction Company Begging.
owing to the absence from the city OF

ter the same rate that is given In Lin
coin and the other suburbs.
To meet his rate and at the same time
pay the 5 per cent to the city Of the gross
receipts of the company as an occupa-
ton tax is too much to expect of the
company is the answer Of the company.
Therefore II the Havelock rate is reduced

Love to be present to see whether the
city would agree to accept a smaller oc-

Havelock people, members OF the commits
sion believe to have made a showing which
probably justifies them in their applica-
ton for a lower rate, while at the same
time the earnings Of the company shows
that II there is a reduction on this line
they will be entitled to increase rates in
the city proper. So as the natter now
stands 1t looks like an increase in rates
or a decrease in occupation tax.
Some Of the people now believe that It
would be to the interest Of the city II the
occupation tax should be abolished and the
traction company be required to put that
much money in betterments and in better
service and in cheaper fares.

LINCOLN, March 5-(Speclal)-The ave-
ragb number Of students attending the uni
versity for the biennium ending April, 1903,
was 3,424. The total expenditures, including
new buildings and all permanent improve
ments. was 1.23S.s $3.50, showing the average
expenditure per student for each year $50.
The above Is set out in the report OF John
Tulleys, state accountant, who has COM
pleted an investigation OF the institution.
The receipts for the biennium were $1,lS9,-
241.95 and the expenditures 81, 23s, $3.50. These
receipts and expenditures cover the tempo
rary university fund, Morrill, fund, cash
fund, general fund and agricultural expert
ment fund. The report deals with each
fund separately, showing It's expenditures
and receipts.
The temporary fund is derived from the
1 mill tax levy interest on bonds and war
rants, interest and lease on university lands
and agricultural college lands. The ex-
pendltures Of this fund exceed the receipts,
This is owing to the fact that the receipts

which represent the medicinal ingredients

Fortunately the polling place was only a
step from his residence or in the multi
piled infirmities Of his body the old man

SHIPS FIGUREHEAD

English Sailor Men Dread
Blackening of Image

In the English navy sailors are often
in the same ship for four or five years.
and during that time the vessel is their
home and they speak OF it as such with
marked affection.
Captain Hall was in command OF
fine frigate on the South American sta
tion. of which he and his crew were
justly proud. especially of the hand
some bust on its figurehead. which was
brightly giIded and great care was
taken care of it, Presently there be-
gan TO be trouble aboard and a discon-
tented, almost mutinous feeling became
apparent.
But instead Of resorting to punish
ment to enforce discipline the captain
summoned the men aft and in simple.
manly speech pointed out the improprt-
ETY. OF their conduct and thus conclud-
ed: so now. my lads, If this be not
put an end to and hearty good will re-
stored I'll blacken the figurehead and
put the ship in mourning" Had a
bombshell fallen at their feet the men
could not have been more astOnished
To have their figurehead blackened!
And in this way discipline and harmony
were restored
