MISCHIEF MAKER
A Surprise in Brooklyn.

An adults food that can save a
baby proves itself to be nourishing
and easily digested and good for big
and little folks. A Brooklyn man
says:
when baby was about eleven
months old he began to grow thin
and pale. This was, at first. attrib-
uted to the heat and the fact that
his teeth were coming, but, in reality,
the poor little thing was starving. his
mothers milk not being sufficient
nourishment.
lone day after he had cried bitter
ly for an hour, suggested that my
wife try him on Grape-Nuts. She
soaked two teaspoonfuls in saucer
with a little sugar and warm milk.
This baby ate SO ravenously that she
fixed a second which he likewise fin
ished.
1T was not many days before he
forgot all about being nursed, and
has since lived almost exclusively on
Grape-Nuts To-day the boy is strong
and robust, and as cute mischief
maker as a thirteen months old baby
is expected to be.
1--WE have put before him other
foods, but he will have none of them,
evidently preferring to stick to that
which did him so much good-his
old friend Grape-Nuts.
Use this letter any way you wish,
for my wife and can never praise
Grape-Nuts enough after the bright
ness 1t has brought to our house
hold"
Grape-Nuts is not made for baby
food. but experience with thousands
of babies shows 1t to be among the
best, II not entirely the best in use
Being scientific preparation of Ma
lures grains, 1t is equally effective
as a body and brain builder for
grown-ups.

THE theory of its being foreshort.
ened or the head being between us
and the tail is altogether untenable.
A comets tail always points away
from the sun, and if there have been
any pictures printed in which this was
not the case they are incorrect. Some
times a second tail appears, and this
freak tail may point toward the sun,
but the main tail always points
away.
IF the tail is there and is merely
invisible to our eyes the spectroscope
might show it. There was, of course,
no such instrument when the comet
was here in 1885. We hope to be
able to use the spectroscope on it in a
short time. and may prove that the
tail is present by this means. The
fact that the spectroscope did not re-
veal its presence would not necessa-
rily mean that the tail is not there,
however. for it might be too dim for
that instrument"

THE DEGENERACY OF THE EEW /:
YORK INDIAN. :
SesoessssooeeeeesessssCes
From ii Monthly Bulletin OF the

tuberculosis is very prevalent
among the Indians at all reservations
and is responsible for one death in
three, if not half the total deaths.
1t is impossible to get the actual fig
ures, for it seems to be no0ody's bus
mess to ascertain them.
Alcoholism is very potent factor.
The white mans fire water has been
very largely responsible for the rapid
physical deterioration of the Indians.
Theoretically it is Illegal to supply
alcoholic liquor to an Indian; practi-
cally he has little or no difficulty in
procuring all he desires. AS might
be expected. there is a very great
amount of immoderate drinking.
1t seems to be a reasonable conclu-
sion that tuberculosis was practically
non existant among American Indi-
ans before the advent of the whites,
and the fire water introduced by the
latter has certainly been an enormous
contributing factor; all the more for
the reason that the whites have.
through many previous centuries, be-
come comparatively seasoned with
regard to this stimulant, to which
the Indian has not yet accustomed
himself.
The physiques of the present gen
Grafton of Indian children are imper-
fectly developed; the lymph nodes,
both internal and external. are affect
ed; there are conjunctivitis, blcphar-
tits and corneal liberation; eczema,
cold assesses, pulmonary tuberculo-
sis, bone and joint tuberculosis. The
adult Indians of to-day have not the
endurance and stamina of their an
cestors. Exercise easily fatigues
them. Farmers cannot get the same
amount of work out of the Indians
they employ that is put forth by
white labor. Some Of this may be
due to laziness or is the result of the
racial traditions and customs in ac-
oordance with which She male Indians
hunted, fished and made war. and
left their squaws to till the fields;
but much is due to the Gcgeneracy
here noted.
The Indian of to-day is emaciated,
STOPPING, inferior to tie white in
physique; he does not now preser {
the full chested, virile, robust figure
which characterized his ancestors be-
fore they came to enjoy the influ-
ence of the white mans presence

Its Track 100000 Miles From Earth,
Tail viii Reach

Washington. D. c. - Willis L.
Moore, chief of the Weather Bureau,
issued a statement that will bring
peace of mind to folks who arc worry
ing about possible collision with
Halley's comet Here is what Chief
Moore has to say:
Popular apprehension regarding
harm to the earth and it's inhabitants
during the impending visit of Halley's
comet to this portion of the universe
is unfounded. The result of a COLI
sion between the earth and a comet
would depend upon the mass of the
comet, the velocity of the bodies and
the angle of impact. A collision in
the present case will be impossible
owing to 4 safety margin between the
tracks of the earth and the comet of
some 100000 miles. The tail of
the comet through which the earth
will probably pass will be noticeable
only as an absolutely harmless lumin-
Gus gas or dust, and may produce
electrical and magnetic effects that
can be detected only by self-recording
instruments. A source of possible

TO MARK line OF LINCOLNS MARCH IN INDIAN WAR
illinois Representative Takes Up Prosecution of Interesting
Historical Proect-On Oldest Inhabitants Have Memory

burlington, Iowa.-RepreSenta
frank o. Lowden. of Illinois, for
ipef Burlington resident, has taken
iip the prosecution of a historical pro-
ject of interest to Western Illinois
and to this part of Iowa. BY the do
nation of sum of money he has fur
thered the project of setting up per-
manent markers to outline the march
which Abraham Lincoln took up in
the Black Hawk war. Only the oldest
Inhabitants in those regions now have
any memory of the course Of that
campaign, which is not adequately
outlined in history.
The object of the markers will be
to fix permanently the line of march
and the camping grounds planned by
the martyr President. The way led
across the prairies of Illinois to the
Mississippi River at point near Bur-
lington, then known as Flint Hills.
The march was made from Boards
town, ILL.,. to Oquawka, then known
as the Yellow Banks on account of
the peculiar colorirg of the river shore
line. From Oquawka the route was
laid to the mouth CT the Rock River.
There were two expeditions in the
Black Hawk war, one in 1881. when
Black Hawk escaped from the pursu-
ers and crossed the Mississippi, and
the second in the following year, when
Black Hawk returned to the Illinois
shore with the determination to re-
main.
Lincoln was made captain of one of
the companies which took up the cam
paign against the Indians The expe-
dition gave several names to the To-
ralities along the route which are
still borne. 1t is interesting to note

ing independently. That the spec
trum may show what has happened to
the apparently lost tail of Halleys
comet is the belief held by Professor
Frost.
1T Is worth noting that when it
was here before in 1885 the tail dis
appeared two days before the perihe-
lion, and was not seen again for two
months" he said 'Halley's is the
only comet ever known to behave like
this. 1t is probable that the tail is
there. but is so dispersed that it is
not bright enough to be seen.

telescope. At 4.50 o'clock in the
morning Professor Hall saw the dim
outlines of the approaching comet.

minutes west of the sun The comet
should have been visible during the
past week, but its approach was OBJ
scured by cloudy weather This was

sighted in this city On May 10 next
the earth will pass through its tail,

Big Australian Drouth.

Australia's last drouth lasted seven
years, and there never has been one
like it since Australia was settled. At
the beginning of this dry spell there
were 100000 sheep in Queensland,
and when the rains came only 7,000,-
900 were left, the dry spell ending in
1908; to-day there are as many sheep
as ever. In these seven seasons the
focks have trebled themselves. For
tunes have been made since those
years of disaster at single run,
and an irrigating lesson has been
learned that will minimize their ter
ror if they should come again. In
the interior of Queensland the yearly
gaverage of rainfall sinks to below ten
inches; rivers are scarce, creeks are
few and in the summer dry up to
