phate of Potash.
Analysis of Grape-Nuts shows Potassium
and Phosphorus (Which join and make
Phosphate of Potash) is considerable more
than one-half of all the mineral salts in
the food.
Dr. Geo. w. Carey, an authority on the
constituent elements of the body, says:
"rThe gray matter of the brain Is controlled
entirely by the inorganic cell-salt Potas-
SUM Phosphate phosphate of Potash).
This salt unites with albumen and by the
addition of oxygen creates nerve flufd or
the gray matter of the brain. OF course,
there is a trace of other salts, and other,
organic matter in nerve fluid, but Potassium
Phosphate is the chief factor, and has the
power within itself to attract. by its own
law of affinity, all things needed to manu-
facture the elixir of life"
Further on he says: "The beginning and
end of the matter is to supply the lacking
principle, and in molecular form, exactly as
nature furnishes it in vegetables. fruits and
grain To supply deficiencies-this Is the
only law of cure"
The natural conclusion is that If Phos-
plate of Potash is the needed mineral ele-
ment in brain and YOU use food which does
not contain it. you have brain fag because
its daily loss is not supplied.
On the contrary If you eat food known to
be rich in this element, you place before
the life forces that which nature demands
for brain building.

Recovery Of Money.


AS well as can be understood about
the matter, Mrs. Boatman recovered
through a court decree something like
three thousand dollars which were in
vested In. lands by her son, HI. H.
Smith, in Oklahoma some time ago.
At one time Mrs. Boatman lived with
this son, who is her offspring by a
previous marriage. in Oklahoma.
The son purchased a life membership
in the Birge Benevolent Home in this
city for the sum of $3.50 some time
later and Mrs. Boatman lived there
for time.
Attorneys for the defense claims
that the old mother was taken i'll and
that Mrs. Swisher, the daughter, COM
ing from Pennington to nurse her
for several weeks, upon returning
home, took Mrs. Boatman with her.
1t Is for the purpose OF obtaining
the removal of the mother from the
home of the daughter that habeus
corpus proceedings have been begun,
the first writ having been served in
February.
The weight of the entire litigation
rests upon the testimony of the elder
ly woman who Is nearing rapidly the
century mark.
Had Hard Trip.
Mrs Boatman arrived in KeokuK
this afternoon on the Rock Island at
/ o'clock accompanied by the nurse
and Chief Schevers. The trip was one
which fatigued the elderly woman
greatly and she was removed immed-
lately to Graham hospital where 1t is
possible she will remain and not be
taken to the court room until she has
recuperated from the tension OF her
ride, which though only thirty miles
was a hard one for an elderly woman
OF her advanced years.
When first asked If she wanted to
come to Keokuk, by the police chief.
Mrs. Boatman answered no, saying she
was tired a little persuasion suf-
feed, however to get her to come to
keokuk.

The Waste of fools

According to the new census, i'm
plements and machinery OF the
American farmer are worth $1,261,-
$4,000. Investigations at different
times furish the basis for the esti-
mate that seventy-five per cent OF
these tools are not properly cared
for. One investigation in Colorado
showed that out of nearly 1000 ma
chimes. not including discarded i'm
plements, nearly fifty per cent were
in need OF repairs.
The average life of a farm ma
chine is probably less than five
Y, ars. which means that there is a
depreciation of twenty per cent each
year on this $1,261. $4,000 worth
of tools. or that $252,363,400 is ac-
tually used up each year by the
American farmer.
There is plenty of evidence to
show that with moderate expense
and a little care the life of these
tools could be trebled and their ef.
ficiency greatly increased. Less than
ten per ceAt of our farms are equip
ped with adequate repair shops, and
even a less number have good tool

CHAS. M'kINLEY
new CHAMPION

Cheyenne. Aug. 2S.-The Chey-
enne show is over, and there's a new
worlds champion broncho buster
Charles Mckinley of Platteville,
Colo, is his name, and the horse he
rode is the famous old Denver.
"Denver's" style of bucking and
McKinley's skill in riding him are
what made the new champion.
1t was decided after three hours
conference between the judges that
Mckinley made technically the most
perfect ride. The behavior OF his
mount has much to do with the rid
er's chance of winning the cham
pionship. The participants draw
their horses and luck is with the
man who draws the widest animal.
Charles Mckinley is well known
in Greeley. Several years ago he
was student at the Normal and has
since been employed on different
ranches around Greeley.

EXHIBIT BOX
FROM GREELEY
FOR BIG FAIR
Said to BE the Best Ever and May
Make the Inventor Famous
IL Not Rich

An exhibit box for grains invent
ed by a Greeley man may be adopt
ed for all exhibits at the Chicago
land show.
Secretary McCrery of the Weld
County Commercial club is the man
who is likely to have honors II not
riches thrust upon him by the new
contrivance. Prof. c. P. Bull OF
the Minnesota experiment station,
saw the toxes at Chicago last win
ter with the Weld county exhibit
and was SO pleased with their con-
yenience and adaptability for the
purpose intended that he has sent
to Greeley for sample box that he
may pattern his own after ours. and,
as he is high in the councils OF the
Chicago land show people they may
also adopt the design as being better
than anything else SO far discov-
cred.
The boxes are made of tin or gal
vinized iron, oblong. similar to the
ordinary bread pan. except that they
are much deeper at one end than
the other, and the sides are turned
over SO that a pane of glass may be
slipped under for covering. Thus
the grain is safe from vandals, and
setting fiat on a bench or table the
face of the pan is on slant, facili-
tating the view.

Pierce, August 2S.-Saturday

The meeting became quite acri-
monious at times, and two physical
encounters between beligerants
were pulled off without serious in

concerned. Nevertheless the gen.

of the work in progress.
