A FRIENDS ADVICE
Something Worth Listening To.

A young Nebr. man was advised by
friend to eat Grape-Nuts because he
was all run down from a spell of
fever. He tells the story:
Last spring I had an attack Of fe-
yer that left me in very weak con-
dition. I had to quit work; had no
appetite. was nervous and discour-
aged.
"A friend advised me to eat Grape
Nuts, but paid no attention to him
and kept getting worse as time went
by.
I took many kinds of medicine but
none OF them seemed to help me. My
system was completely run down, my
blood got out of order from want of
proper food, and several very large
boils broke out on my neck. I was
SO weak l could hardly walk.

Grape-Nuts and induced me to eat
some. | felt better and that night

DISCUSSED AT NATIONAL CiVie
FEDERATION MEETING.
AUGUST Belmont Discussed the Cues

GUS Opinions Expressed.

New York-National legislation o.
workmen's compensation was discuss
ed Monday at largely attended meet
ing held under the auspices OF the
National Civic Federation. Commls
sioners on workmen's compensation
from many states, delegates appoint

commissions have been created, LABOR
representatives, employers OF labor
and members of trade and bar asso-
Citations took part.
August Belmont, chairman OF the
! Civic Federation's department on com
pensa alton for industrial accidents and
their prevention, presided and in his
opening address discussed the ques-
ton. 'HoW may the injured workman
be guaranteed his compensation IN
case of insolvency on the part OF his
EMPLOYERS And also outlined the
Civic Federation's compensation act'
which provides that next to wages due
an injured mans claim shall be first
lien upon a business.
United States Senator Sutherland OF
Utah, speaking in support OF the pro-
posed act, said it was based on that
of the Civic Federation and said I'M

country are paying out annually Slo,-

w. J. Carter, president of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen, opposed federal legls-
laton at present, saying he desired to
see what the individual states would
do and then profit by their mistakes.
Hal H. Smith of Detroit, a member
of the Michigan workmens compensa-

BOSTON CHILD KEPT DIGNITY
Matron Meant to Be Kindly, But
Youngster Was Not Converse

This story has been going the
rounds of Boston about the ten-year-
old son of Director Russell of the
Boston opera house.
One evening during an entr'acte at
the opera house Master Rusesll was
promenading alone in the foyer, in
faultlessly evening dress-a very glass
OF fashion. A Boston matron, seeing
that he was lonely, began to make her
self agreeable"
you are Director Russells little
boy, aren't you?" she asked, with
patronizing sweetness.
Master Russell resented this intru-
sion on his dignity, but his courtly
manners were unruffied. Yes,
madam" he replied. with an elabor-
ate bow.
Where were you born?"
"In France, madam"-slightly more
frigid
What part?" continued the lady,
feeling the conversation we'll started.

And he bowed and walked away

Worth Three Times a Diamond.

Nearly all the emeralds mined to-
day come from Colombia. And, in
spite of the supposed. higher value of
diamonds, the emerald is the most
precious of gems. Carat for carat,
fawless emerald would bring perhaps
three times the price Of a flawless dia-
mond in the jewelry market. India,
the storehouse of precious stones, is
credited with producing the first en-
eralds, but the Oriental emerald is
not identical with the modern gem, as
it is variety of the ruby, of green
color and extremely rare.

Suicide Among German Children.

Suicide Among German Children.
Why do so many German children
commit suicide? No one seems to
know. but there is no dispute about
the fact Indeed it has been said that
the majority Of suicides are those of
children, and experts seem inclined to
connect the grisly epidemic with the
educational system. That "the weak
must go to the WALL has become an
axiom that has been extended to the
schools and the undeveloped mind of
the child seeks relief in suicide from
the Encouragement of failure. 1t
would be interesting to know if any of
the so-called heather countries Of the
world have. ever experienced such
horrid social phenomena as that of
child suicide.

WAY TO JUDGE A PITCHER
IS TO WATCH HIM PITCH

"The only way to tell anything about
pitcher is to see him pitch" said Jim
Mcclure, The Cleveland scout, in re-
SPONGE to a question as to what he
thought of some of the youngsters of
the Detroit Tiger squad at Monroe,
La, recently. "These boys have all
the actions Of pitchers so far as any
one can see from the practice stunts,
but until they have been under fire
decline to pass final judgment on them.
"To my mind the ideal athlete is the
one who is best when the necessity for
being strong is greatest It's that old
fighting spirit that counts. There are
lots of fellows who are wonders in prac-
tice, no matter what line of sport they
may be engaged in But parlor box
ers seldom are fighters, and many fine
warm-up pitchers fall down terribly
when they come to face the music in a
regular game.
"Many time have warmed up men
who had everything that ever have
seen a pitcher display, Speed, curves,
control, and everything else would be
theirs, and would feel confident that
they would be able to win that day if
we got them couple of runs, Then
these fellows would 90 out TO the center
of the diamond and show me about half
of what they had displayed in warming
up practice.
1t isn't always a lack of gameness
that accounts for pitchers failure to
do as well in a game as in practice.
Some of the men are SO anxious to win
that they work themselves into stew.
There are plenty of fellows who are
game, yet can't do their best when
they want to. II seems TO be sort Of
