Percy David Won Kanel, the bright md manly son of Mrs. Estella Won Kanel of No. IS Frechtling block. lost is life Friday afternoon about D o'clock in the reservoir channel near the second bridge.
 The boy could not swim, but he went into the deep water with a number of companions who could swim. He secured a board and was lying on the board padding around. He lost his hold on the board and went down in 12 feet of water. He screamed for help and his boy com panions went to him as soon as pos sible.
 The boys who were with him were Fred Morton. Harry Willis and Paul Leigh gaber
 Lawrence Bruck and a boy friend named Robert Glass. living on Elder street in Cincinnati, were also in swimming near the bridge The Glass boy went right to the aid of the drowning lad and caught Van Kanel by the hair as he came mp the sec ond time. Van Kaners hair was short. and wet and the hold the Gin cinnau boy had on the lad was not very secure. and the body slipped from his grasp and went down in the water again.
 This time the body never rose. The other boys tried their best to find the body, but they could not. Then they gave the alarm and after ward the little boy was found. An hour and more had elapsed before the body was recovered. II was then too late to restore life. George Jennewein and Henry Jen- ser in a boat with a grappling hook, brought the body to the surface.
 Percy Van Kanel was born in Bisbee, Arizona, and at the time of his death was Il years, months

A COOL PROPOSITION The Body Does Not Feel Heat Unpleassntiy if it Has
 Proper Food
 And a Sure One. Grape-Nuts

People can live in a temperature which feels from ten to twenty de grees cooler than their neighbors enjoy. by regulating the diet.
 The plan is to avoid meat entire ly for breakfast: use a goodly allow ance of fruit, either fresh or cooked. Then follow with a saucer containing about four heaping teaspOonfuls of Grape-Nuts. treated with a little rich cream. Add to this about two slices of crisp toast with a meager amount of butter, and one cup of weil-made POstum
 By this selection of food the bod fly energy is preserved. while the hot. carbonaceous foods have been left out The result is a very marked difference in the temperature of the body. and to this comfortable condition is added the certainly of easy and perfect digestion. for the food being partially pre-digested is quickly assimiIated by the digestive machinery.
 Experience and experiment in food and it's 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.

VICTIMS OF THE TIPPING Habit.

If what a New York religious week
~ alleges concerning the organized
and systematized methods of eXtorting
tips and managing the tip funds at
New York hotels is only approximately
correct, and if tipping conditions on
Manhattan island are spreading the
country over. then, indeed, has the
time arrived when state legislatures
should do something to protect the
travelling public and that part of the
fixed community which lives at the
hotels or restaurants.
According to a statement made in
the Christian Herald, the leading hotels
the lessees and prOprietors Of these
Caravansaries-profit from the tips
That is. they farm out places in the
service where the tip receipts are large
and under control of the individual
purchasing the privilege. 1t is alleged
that courtroom privileges in the larger
hotels sell for from $500 to $4,000 4
year. and that one hotel is reported to
have received as high as $4,000 for'its
combined privileges let to tip collectors.
Notwithstanding these high prices paid
the men owning the tip stands gather
in more than 100000 year from the
generous guests. The tip privileges
for vehicles at the front and side doors
of hotels sell at from $1,000 to 100000
year. The doorman has a day and
night watch and reaps a rich harvest
from both The doOrman gets from %
cents to 81 from each of his wealthy
visitors. 1t is said that a man paid
$50, 900 year for the tips for checking
garents at one hotel alone"
1t is easy to comprehend how this
tipping scheme operates as a hold-up.
Even the man of moderate means
comes to understand that the Zip is eX-
pected at every turn ut these hotels,
and he has rot. generally speaking, the
moral courage to set his face hard and
refuse to tip. And he soon understands
another thing. which is that the small
tip is generally accepted with such APP
parent contempt that it is better no;
to proffer It. If tipping has already
come to be such an organized and sys-
tematized plan of eXtortion in this
country it is certainly time The large
victimitized class should be seeking

EAST OF SUEZ.

Wise and humane missionaries know
many things about which they do not
say much in their reports. When they
talk about the obstacles to the spread

paint in their true colors the conduct
OF the men and women who east OF

name covers every possible abomina-
ton that can be wrought by dissolute
men and abandoned women who repre-
