NO WORDS WASTED
A Swift Transformation Briefly De-
Scribed

About food, the following brief but
emphatic letter from a Georgia woman
goes straight to the point and is con-
yinsing.
MY frequent attacks of indigestion
and palpitation of the heart eliminated
in sudden and desperate illness,
from which arose enfeebled in mind
and body The doctor advised me to
live on cereals, but none of them ag-
reed with me until / tried Grape-Nuts
food and Postum.
The more | used of them the more
| felt convinced that they were just
what | needed, and in a short time
they made different woman of me-
My stomach and heart troubles disap-
peared as if by magic, and my mind
was restored and is as clear as it ever
was.
Il gained flesh and strength so rap
idly that my friends were astonished
Postum and Grape-Nuts have benefited
me so greatly that | am glad to bear
this testimony" Name given by Pos
tum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.
There's reason" and it is ex-
planned in the little book, "The Road
to MELVILLE" in pkgs.
Ever read the above letter. A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest,

YEGGMEN USE HEAVY
CHARGE NITROGLYCERIN

New York, March 25.-Cracksmen
set off so much dynamite under a safe
in the Office of a Staten Island manu-
featuring company early today that
the explosion was heard for miles and
many persons thought there was an
earthquake. The five safeblowers fed
after an exchange of shots with
watchmen. The safe was blown to
pieces and some of its contents de-
stroyed. There is no clew.

A CITY Car In the Country.

eve took our cat to the country
with US this summer" said the fiat
dweller just back from vacation, land
that cats education was expanded
thereby. Puss has never been any
where out of our apartment except
once when he fell from the fourth
story window to an awning below.
Our apartment is about so feet
long over all. For the first few days
that he enjoyed the unknown freedom
of big yard up in the country the
cat puzzled us by his antics. He
would make a short run Of SO feet
or so and then stop abruptly and
look worriedly at the lawn ahead Of
him. Finally we guessed what was the
matter. That cat didn't care to run
too far for fear he would fall off the
lawn"

FARMERS WHO LIVE
IN COMMUNAL VALLEYS
May Settle the Cry of "Back to
the Land"

The Communal farm village or rur-
al settlement was established by act
of Congress in 1906. The idea exploit
ed by the law was to relieve the farm
of its loneliness and segregation from
all the benefits of society by creating
communal settlements on Government
irrigation tracts in the West BY living
in town, not far from the farm, the
family enjoys the society of all the
neighbors who might be scattered over
many miles, Schools and churches
are used in common by all, and small
stores provide the necessary shopping
district. In early morning the farmer
and his help drive to their tract of
land, returning at the end of the days
work.
The many advantages of communal
village life may prove a very deciding
factor in solving the problem of keep
ing boys and girls on the farm Dis
content has ever driven the farm chill
dren into cities and mill districts. AS
the communal farmers prosper they
are enabled gradually to acquire la
bor-saying machines, reducing the
work of the hands and increasing the
hours of recreation. The big machines
and the automobile are sure to kill
most of the discomfort which drives
farm children away from home.

provisional regiment proved to be one
OF the most interesting and illuminat-
Ing problems ever worked out by the
United States army. The objects Of
the organization were to determine.
among other things, the correct organs
izatlon of an infantry regiment and
the component parts or units: to de-
termine what is necessary in equip
ment. including arms. kits and trans
portation; to test certain new forms
of equipment; to test every provision
of the new infantry drill regulations:
and to give officers and non commits
stoned officers instruction in combat
firing, and to procure data and sugges-
lions that will be of future value in
prescribing training in infantry fire.
Experiment Successful.
This was a rather large order to
fin. but, according to Colonel Morri-
son. the problems were well on the way
to solution when he was called away.
The new equipment proved very
satisfactory" said Colonel Morrison
The enlisted men themselves; who
are most conservative as to any
changes. and who, of course, are in
the best position to judge. liked the
new pack in preference to the blanket
roll. The new arrangement hangs all
the weight from the back and shout
ders, and does not have any jangling
accouterments to get in the way of a
marching soldier. Another important
experiment was the increase Of the
regimental units. to twelve companies
OF practically $50 men each, it being
the theory that three company officers
could handle this number of men in
action. We had terrificaIly hot wealth
er, and made our marches under the
most trying conditions. but in spite of
this, everything worked out well"

ment are these: One colonel, iieuten-

international Wireless on Ships.
LONDON. Eng, July S.-Ali the
delegates to the wireless conference
have signed the new convention con-
tanning the revised regulations for the
exchange of messages between ships
and shore. The provisions for rem
dering wireless telegraphy more eff
fective in cases of distress provide
that ships in future will be required to
have an auxiliary capable of working
the wireless telegraphy for six hours
independently of the engines. First
class ships are to be required to car
ry two operators, and on smaller
ships the operator is to be required
to listen for messages at fixed times.
The conference recommended an in
ternational agreement for compulsory
wireless equipment in certain classes
of vessels.
KimOnOs Found.
After an almost continuous search
of the Pacific Mail liner Korea since
her arrival at San Francisco for
opium supposed to have been conceal-
ed aboard of her. the efforts of the
customs officers were rewarded with
one meagre seizure yesterday.
The confiscated goods consisted of
two handsomely embroidered silk XII
monos found in the bedding of one of
the staterooms. They are supposed to
have been left there by a passenger
who intended to bring the garments
in without declaration, but thought
better of it.
