New Orleans, La.-Advices received
Monday are to the effect that CeiDa.
Spanish Honduras, has been taken by
the reyolutionists, under the leader

reported that an attack on Ceiba was
made Thursday.
The capture of Ceiba is said to have
been effected by General Christmas,
the American soldier Of fortune, with
little loss among his forces. He march
ed on Ceiba, it is reported, from Pedro
Pintata where he had repulsed the
government forces under General Diaz.
1t is reported that General Bonilla,
leader Of the revolutionary movement
iE Honduras, has reinforced General
Christmas in his attack on Ceiba This
information was questioned, however,
by adherents Of the respective factions
at New Orleans. 1t was asserted that
General Christmas, with his force OF
between four and five hundred men,
could without doubt take possession OF
Ceiba, following the repulse of Gen
eral Diaz at Pedro Pintata several
days ago. This point is only seven
miles distant from Ceiba. Truxilla is
now reported in the hands Of the reyo-

A COOL
PROPOSITION
And q Sure One.
The Body Does Not Feel Heat
Unpleasantly If 1t has
Proper Food
Grape=Nuts

People can I've In a temperature
which feels from ten to twenty degrees
cooler than their neighbors enjoy. BY
regulating the diet.
The plan is to avoid meat entirely for
breakfast; use goodly allowance of
fruit, either fresh or cooked. Then fol-
low with saucer containing about four
neaping teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts,
treated with little rich cream. Add to
this about two slices Of crisp toast with
meager amount Of butter, and one
cup OF well-made Postum.
By this selection of food the bodily
energy Is preserved, while the hot, car
bonaceous foods have been left out.
The result Is very marked difference
N the temperature of the body, and
to this comfortable condition is added
the certainty of ease and perfect diges-
ton, for the food being partially pre-
digested is quickly assimilated by the
digestive machinery.
Experience and experiment In food,
and its application to the human body
has brought out these facts. They
can be made use Of and add materially
to the comfort of the user.

Heads of Navy Are Annoyed BY Women

minated in the court-martial of two
officers, illustrates the prominent part
women play in navy circles.
Almost everybody knows of the
mutual i'll feeling existing between
the navy women and the department.
Every once in a while something hap
pens to widen this breach. Only
few days ago Ensign Charles M. Aus
tin, son of Representative Richard
W. Austin of Tennessee, was deprived
of an especially desirable berth by the
navy department merely because he
got married. He had been detached
from the dispatch boat Dolphin at the
washington navy yard and ordered
to Japan for duty as a student at
tache at the American embassy at
Tokyo for the purpose of studying the
Japanese language. On the way to
his new post of duty he stopped at his
former home in Tennessee and was
married to girl he had known for
many years.
This was too much for the unro-
mantle departmental authorities, who
suddenly decided that married en-
sign would not make as good a stu
dent of the Japanese language as a
bachelor. Accordingly his orders
were revoked and instead of spending
his honeymoon in Tokyo he will have
less interesting service at the naval
training station on the Pacific coast.
He will, however, have his wife.

A FTER losing four positions within
"A a year just because of her beauty,
Mary Todd has left Washington and
will try her fortune elsewhere. Miss
Todd set out to be stenographer.
Her employer got mixed up in his die
tation and included phrases that could
not have been part Of the correspond
ence. AS shopgirl the floorwalkers
strolled too often near her counter AS
a milliner she aroused the envy and
jealousy of customers.
Miss Todd has been living in George
town for a little more than a year.
She came here from small Pennsyl-
vania town, well equipped to work,
with money enough to wait until a
reasonably good position was open to
