masticate my food properly.
THE result was that found myself,
q few years ago, afflicted with all
ments of the stomach, and kidneys,
which interfered seriously with my
business.
cat last took the advice of friends
and began to eat Grape-Nuts instead
Of the heavy meats, etc., that had con-
stituted my former diet.
Il found that | was at once bene-
flied by the change, that l was soon
relieved from the heartburn and indi-
gestion that used to follow my meals,
that the pains in my back from my
kidney affection had ceased.
my nerves, which used to be I'M
steady, and my brain, which was slow
and lethargic from a heavy diet OF
meats and greasy foods, had, not in
moment, but gradually, and none the
less surely, been restored to normal
efficiency.
NOW every nerve is steady and my
brain and thinking faculties are quick
er and more acute than for years past.

to suffer during the forenoon from a
feeling of weakness which hindered
me seriously in my work, but since |

or Eberhart maintains his position.
In reply to the governors sugges-
ton that they act as arbitrators, the
members of the supreme court, through
the chief justice, Charles M. Start,
sent the following letter to the gov
ernor:
Your request of May 20 that the
justices of the supreme court act as
arbitrators in the matter of charges
to be preferred against the superin-
tendent of the state training school
for boys, at Red Wing, has been duly
considered and the conclusion reached
that we cannot comply with your re-
quest. We have no jurisdiction of
the matter as court, and If we
should consent to act as arbitrators,
it would establish an undesirable prec-
edent which would embarrass the
court and directly tend to impair con-
fidence in it. We are, therefore, con-
strained by our views of judicial duty
and propriety to decline to comply with
your request"

The story is told by Nicholas Trist. His
chief, Senator John Calhoun, offered the
portfolio of secretary of state in Tyler's
cabinet is told by DR.. Ward that his time
is short Calhoun declares that he is not
ready to die, and if he accepts Tyler's Of
fer it means that Texas and Oregon must
be added to the Union. He plans to learn
the intentions of England with regard to
Mexico through Baroness Won Ritz. secret
spy and reputed mistress of the English
ambassador, Pakenham. Nicholas is sent
to bring the baroness to Calhoun's apart
ments and misses a meeting with his
sweetheart Elizabeth Churchill While
searching for the baroness house car
riage dashes up and Nicholas is invited to
enter. The occupant is the baroness, who
says she is being pursued. The pursuers
are shaken off. Nicholas is invited into

He notes that the baroness has lost
slipper Nicholas is given the remaining
slipper as pledge that she will tell Cal
houn everything. He gives her as secur-
ity an Indian trinket he intended for

REGARDING Elizabeth.

Proverb.
In some forgotten garnet of this
country, as l do not doubt, yellowed
with age, stained and undistinguish-
able, lost among uncared-for relics of
another day, there may be records of
that interview between two strange
personalities, John Calhoun and
Helena Won Ritz, in the arrangement
of which | played the part above de-
scribed. l was not at that time privi-
legged to have much more than a
guess at the nature of the interview.
Indeed, other things now occupied my

What Mamma Said.

When the new minister, a hand
some and unmarried man, made his
first pastoral call at the Fosdicks, he
took little Anna up in his arms and
tried to kiss her. But the child re-
fused to be kissed; she struggled
loose and ran off into the next room,
where her mother was putting few
finishing touches to her adornment be-
fore going into the drawing room to
greet the clergyman.
Mamma" the little girl whispered.
"the man in the drawing room wanted
NE to kiss him."
Well" replied mamma, 'why didn't
you let him? l would If l were YOU"
Thereupon Anna ran back into the
drawing room, and the minister
asked:
well, little lady, won't you kiss
me now?"

on my face, at least felt it myself in
the lightness of my step, in the con-

and that everything in the world
would do we'll by me.
AS to Elizabeth Churchill, it might
have been in line with a Maryland Gus
tom had she generally been known as
Betty; but Betty she never was called,
although that diminutive was applied
to her aunt, Jennings, twice as large
as she, after whom she had been
named. Betty implies a snub nose;
Elizabeth's was clean cut and straight.
Betty runs for a saucer mouth and a
short one; Elizabeth's was red and
curved, but firm and wide enough for
strength and charity as we'll. Betty
spells round eyes, with brows arched
above them as though in query and
curiosity; the eyes of Elizabeth were
long, her brows long and straight and
delicately fine. A Betty might even
have red hair; Elizabeth's was brown
in most lights, and so liquid smooth
that almost 1 was disposed to call it
dense rather than thick. Betty would
seem to indicate a nature impulsive,
gay, and free from care; on the other
hand, it was to be said of Elizabeth
that she was logical beyond her kind
"a trait which she got from her
mother, daughter Of old Judge Henry
Gooch of our superior court Yet,
disposed as she always was to be
logical in her conclusions, the great
characteristic of Elizabeth was Sc
renity, consideration and charity.
With all this, there appeared some
times at the surface of Elizabeth's ma

siveness which she got from her ia
