SAVE NINE With a Stitch in Time

To know of and use a food that will feed and restore brain and nerves before slight nervous troubles end in complete nervous prostration, is wise, for unless proper food is sup piled daily, it is unreasonable to ex- pect the nervous system to answer the demands made upon it.
 There is a food, Grape-Nuts, for the particular purpose of restoring weakened nerves or Jagged brain to health and strength.
 A business man of Baltimore, who made the trial, says:
 Two years ago my health had be- come SO seriously impaired that il was impossible for me to attend 10 business. At the least exertion my nerves would give way and the con dition of my system allowed me little or no rest or sleep at night. Stomach trouble soon followed, and could take no solid food I tried the best tonics and medicines. but they ala failed.
 Finally, Grape-Nuts food was rec commended. and after using it for ten days I began to feel its good results. and at the end of three months was again a well nlsn-nerves restored to their normal condition, strength re- newed. and I was able to do any amount Of both physical and mental work without feeling unduly fs- tigued.
 T know Grape-Nuts built up my brain and nerves and still keep them strong and vigorous, just exactly as food builds up muscles or fat, for in stance. and am glad to have learned this valuable lesson" Name given by pOstum Co.,. Battle Creek. Mich.

What is Being Quietly Accom- pliShed at the College Park Army School of
 Aviation
AND FEATS
 ONLY GET PUBLICITY
in the Brief Existence of the School # Has Given Promise of
 Success
(By Victor EHiott.)

WASHINGTON. Sept. 22.-Remark- able progress has been made in avia- ton in the army since the establish ment of the aviation school at Col lege Park. Md, by the war depart ment. While professional ayiators are making spectacular flights for large purses, army lieutenants attach ed to the signal corps are flying daily at College Park, yielding a masterly hand in the management of various types of the aeroplane.
 These men attract little attention from the world outside of Washing ton, where their daily trips and ex- periments are chronicled in the news papers in a perfunctory manner. Of course. if they do something out of the ordinary, or if they meet with ac- cident, the news is flashed over the wires. Otherwise they work without attracting notice. Occasionally one of the aviators breaks some record in height or speed and Is given big head lines in the metropolitan dailies.
 History of School
 The school was established early last spring. These intrepid aero nants think little of making a fifteen or twenty mile trip before breakfast. Every morning Captain Chandler, who is the commanding officer of the squad, with Lieutenant Arnold, Lieu tenant Milling, Lieutenant Kirtland, Captain Book and Lieutenant Ken nedy assemble and study aeroplanes. They look into conditions before de- ciding upon their days work. If the wind is slow and if the sky is clear, each man tells the other what he in- tends to do, and then proceeds to do it. One runs" over to Annapolis and back. Another sails over the pines and hills of Prince George county, Maryland, races with express trains. and usually reports when he gets back that he outdistanced the train.
 One thing l have discovered, said Captain Beck, is the absolute inability of the aviator when in the air at any great height to discern the hills and valleys. The earth below him looks flat all the time, and we can only tell the difference between meadow and eornfeld by the color of each, and often that is difficult. Not long ago my engine stopped, and had to find a place to alight. l saw what I thought was a level place, so glided to earth and landed-nOt on 2 level spot, but on a sharp knoll, sur rounded by deep gulches. It was a

ELMIRA, Sept 22.-Aviator c. P. Rogers, who is competing in the coast to-eoast flight for the prize of s50.- O00G, landed on farm near this city al 5:55 this evening, after making the longest days flight since leaving New York on Sunday. Rogers left Hancock at 11:5S, and because he lost his way near Susquehanna was forced to fly more than 200 miles in order to reach this city, a distance of but 1lS miles from Hancock.
 He followed a branch railroad in stead of the main line. and did not discover his mistake until he reached Scranton, Pa, 5 miles out of his way He will leave at am. tomorrow in an effort to fly 400 miles before night fall. He will continue 10 follow the Erie tracks.

FOR FIFTY YEARS
 LIVED IN CLOISTER
Sister EuphraSia of San An- tono Has Never Left
 Convent Grounds

SAN ANTONIO. Tex, Sept. 22.- Fifty years behind the walls of a cloister is the experience of Sister Euphrasia of the Ursuline Convent in this city. During a half century, she has never broken the rules of the cloister by leaving the grounds Of the convent. In honor of the fiftieth an niyersary of the acceptance of VOWS one day of religious and social cele- bration will be held at the Ursuline Convent October 21.
 Sister Euphrasia came to the con vent fifty-two years ago on October 2l, and became an aspirant for the veil and two years later took the VOW. She is a marked favorite among the alumnae membership because of her many years as supervisor of the din ing room and close contact with the pupils

dangerous position in which I found myself, and my mind was fairly spin ming with ideas as to how to save my life could not avoid landing, be cause I was too near the top of the knoll, so I went down with what l thought would be a crash and at least broken limbs l landed on the knoll gracefully enough, and then a happy thought came to me. threw my en- tire weight on one side of the ma chine, which tipped the aeroplane and caused one end to dig into the earth. You ought to have seen what hap pened them. That aeroplane spun round like a top for a few seconds and then came 10 a stop. l was dizzy for a few moments. There l was alone in a barren country, with the nearest farmhouse two miles away. and night coming on. l stayed all night in that country, and the next day took my machine to pieces and hired man to haul it to the nearest railroad station for shipment to College Park"
 Height and Safety
 AUOLuEI AdiL NA2LAOEE4 aE e 1EoAAN of the test of aeroplanes by the army men has to do with the dangers and safety of flights at high or low alti- tudes. It would appear to the mind of the amateur in aviation that there Is a much greater degree of safety when an aeroplane is near the earth than when at a height of 1500 or 200O feet.
 This has proved a fallacy. There would be greater danger in the high altitude if the airship were to drop direct to the earth. But, with an aeroplane high in the air and well un- der control, it is not regarded as a serious mishap even when the motor stops. The aviator simply realizes that all he has to do is to find good place to alight, and he has plenty of time to accomplish the task success fully, provided he is high enough il the air.
 By the proper manipulation of the wings" of his machine, he scars much after the style of an eagle. His airship slowly approaches the earth, but in the meantime the aviator Is. turning his craft and casting about for a meadow or ploughed field upon which to make a landing. He is capa- ble, too of turning his steering appa- ratus in such a way as to send his airship upward, again and again changing his course. In this way he selects his landing spot and comes down as gracefully and as harmlessly as a bird Tests of all these features have been made by the army expert ments at College Park, and frequently they find some new method of avoid ing the dangers that so commonly be- set the men of the air"
 The school at College Park has been entirely successful, according to officials of the war department. A similar school is being established on the Annapolis Naval academy field for the instruction of the academy students. When this is put ia opera ton, interesting experiments may be expected. Aeroplanes will sail out over the ocean. They will become part of the equipment of training ships 10 teach the future admirals of the navy the use of aeroplanes in war.
