OTHERS KNOW US TOO WELL
Easy to Deceive Ourselves, but the
Rest Of the World Is Generally
Too Wise.

Senator Pomerene has a happy
knack of driving home a statement
with ar epigram.
At luncheon Senator Pomerene
described as would-be litterateur.
Thanks to whisky and strong
cigars" he said. 1.-THE poor fellow has
failed to make good. He earns a pre-,
carious living by newspaper work,
but, though he is SO now, none of the
woItrous novels and thrilling stories
that he used to prate about have ap-
peared.
And yet, in his shabby apartment.
over a bottle of cheap liquor and a
box of cheap cigars, he will boast by
the hour-poor, gray, wrinkled duffer
of his unfinished MSS. Oh, they
will appear yet! Yes, he will yet H.
lumine the world with the light of his
genius"
Senator Pomerene sighed and con-
cluded:
"Ah, if we could deceive others as
easily as we deceive ourselves, what
regulations we'd all have, to be sure!"

In such year ia 1t wise to hold

Trappers Sail 5000 Miles on a
Trading Trip.
Voyage Made Without a Chronometer,

Only Instruments on

San Francisco.-Word has been re-
ceived here of the successful termina-
ton of one Of the nerviest ventures
ever tackled on the Pacific coast. H.
G. Slate and Peter Peterson. who left
here for the arctic last May on the an
cient hay scow Alice Stolen. have ar
rived safely at Point Barrow. Tney

bay. Originally the vessel was stout

Dor and river. Never at any stage OF
Its career would anybody but two
hardened trappers have considered
the Stolen as fit for trip as far out

Slate, who has spent twenty years
of his life trading and trapping In the
arctics, wanted. to get back there.
and the Stolen was about the only
kind of a boat that his means would
permit him to buy He bought the
old scow for a song. He provisioned
1t for a long trip and loaded 1t with
trading goods, and May is, with Peter
Peterson for a crew. sailed for the
arctics.
The only navigating instruments
aboard the Stofen were a little old
boat compass and sextant as old
as the scow. Slate could not AFFORD
a chronometer and, as he admitted to
a friend before sailing, would not have
known how to use it If he had. by
means of the sextant and compass ne

accuracy.
For longitude he trusted. In the

NO MEDICINE
But Change OF Food Gave Final Relief.

Most diseases start in the alimen-
tary canal-stomach and bowels
A great deal of our stomach and
bowel troubles come from eating too
much starchy and greasy food.
The stomach does not digest any
Of the starchy food we eat-white
bread, pastry, potatoes, oats, ETC.
these things are digested in the small
intestines. and If we eat too much, as
most Of US do, the organs that should
digest this kind Of food are overcome
by excess Of work, 80 that fermenta-
ton, Indigestion, and long train of
ails result
Too much fat also is hard to digest
and this is changed into acids, sour
stomach. belching gas, and a bloated,
heavy feeling.
In these conditions change from
indigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will
work wonders in not only relieving
the distress but in building up
strong digestion, clear brain and
steady nerves. A Wash. woman
writes:
