A grouchy butcher, who had watch

him a penny.

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 xcess Of work, 81 that fermenta-
ton. Indigestion, and a long train Of
ais 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 a change from
lndigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will
work wonders in not only relieving
the distress but in building up a
strong digestion, clear brain and
steady nerves. A Wash. woman

Story of Stranded Soldier.

Charles Peters, veteran OF the
Civil War, struck the city one day
last week and was completely on the
rocks, so to speak. He was en- route
from Hot Springs, South Dakota. to
which place he went early in the
spring in a wheel chair, to be treated
for rheumatism and has regained the
use of his limbs. His funds gave cut
here and he had to seek aid from
some of his old comrades in arms for
lodging over night, but when it came
TO transportation to Waukon, near
where he claimed to have son resid-
ing, he had to fall back on the char
ity of this writer, who was appealed
to as a dernier resort. In converse
ton with him we learned that he was
a former resident of Dt buque, where
on May %, 1882, he discovered the
bodies of Mrs. VIM. 3. Allison and
babe clasped in her arms, floating in
a pond or slough near the Illinois
Central depot. The senator's wife
had suicided while mentally unbal-
anced and was dressed in the finest
of silks and wore jewelry and dia-
monds to the value of several thou
sand dollars. A reward of 500 Was
paid Mr.. Peters at the time and the
senator said that if he ever wanted
aid to call on him. Twenty-three
years afterwards he appealed for as-
sistance to Mr.. Allison, who kept his
word, and inside of five or sir weeks,
got him appointed as a doorkeeper
at the government printing Office in
Washington, ID. c., which position he
still holds, being absent at present
on sick leave. Mr.. Peters served in
the 18th U. S. Infantry, is intelligent
and well posted, and republican, of
course, but all at sea as to what to
do this year. From here he went to
Waukon, where he informed us that
he was well taken care of by Colonel
Earle.-Lansing Journal

Smother Babe with a Pillow.

A distressing accident occurred at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. George
when their six months old babe was
smothered, presumably by its two
year-old brother, who had placed
pillow over the little ones face.
The babe had been placed up stairs
for its nap by the mother. Just
what happened is not certain. The
little boy, it is believed, got up the
stairs some way and secured pill
low from its parents bed, placed it
on the child's face, thinking it was
doing kindly service. This, how
ever, is uncertain. When the mother
discovered the child it was too
far gone to be resuscitated. ~ Mason
