EAGER TO WORK,
Health Regained by Right Food.

The average healthy man or woman
is usually eager to be busy at some
useful task or employment.
But let dyspepsia or indigestion get
hold of one, and all endeavor becomes
a burden.
"A year ago, after recovering from
an operation" writes a Michigan lady,
my stomach and nerves began to give
me much trouble.
AT times my appetite was vora-
clous, but when INDUCED, indigestion
followed. Other times l had no appe-
tite whatever. The food l took did not
nourish me and l grew weaker than
ever.
Il lost interest in everything and
wanted to be alone. I had always had
good nerves. but now the merest trife
would upset me and bring on a violent
headache. Walking across the room
was an effort and prescribed exercise
was out of the question.
II had seer Grape-Nuts advertised,
but did not believe what read at the
time. At last when it seemed as If /

Railway Commissioners Make Repor

Railway Commissioners Make Report.
Helena,-1n the annual report of
the state board of railway com.
missioners, the installation of the
block system on all lines of railway
operating in the state is recommend
ed, the report stating that were such
a system adopted, casualties on the
railroads would be greatly reduced,
as no two trains could be in the
same block at the same time. The re-
port also states that the adoption of
the electric headlight has been an
unqualified success.
Referring to new mileage, as com
pared with the mileage of a veal ago,
the commission says the increase has
been slight. A 25-mile line from
Leader to White Sulphur Springs has
been constructed; the Puget Sound
has taken over the Gallatin. Valley
Electric line and changed it into a
steam road. The Great Northern has
built a branch from Bainville to
Plentywood, in Valley county. but It
will not be in operation until next
year. The Burlington is now building
a 59-mile cutoff from Scribner to
Fromberg.
