TOO MUCH STARCH.
A Food Pro oblem.

An Asheville man tells how right food did that which medicines rad failed to accomplish:
 For more than h years" he says. T was afflicted with stomach trou- ble and intestinal indigestion, gas forming in stomach and bowels and giving me great distress. These con- ditions were undoubtedly due to the starchy food I ate, white bread. po- tatoes, etc, and didn't digest. l grew worse with time. till, years ago, l had an attack which the doctor diag- nosed as appendicitis. When the surgeon operated on me. however, It was found that my trouble was ulcer of the pancreas, instead of appendi citis.
 since that time l have had sev. eraI such attacks, suffering greatly. The last attack was about months ago and I endured untold agonies.
 .The doctor then said that I would have to eat less starchy stuff, so ] hogan the use of Grape-Nuts food for I rnew fl to be pre-digested, and have continued same with most gratifylnS results.

THE MENACE"
 FILTHY SHEET
Articles Tend Cniy to Waken DissensiOn and Put Odium Upon Faith
 of Large Sect
PAPER IS DISGRACE

For some months past some one who evidently thinks he is doing a service to humanity, has been circu- lating a sheet around Bisbee, the sole object of it's existence being to islander Catholics and publish all the filth it can to besmirch that religious organization. The sheet is a relic of the dark ages. Men of this day and generation are too enlightened and broad-minded to pay any attention to such contemptible, under-handed methods.
 The following article from the Bell man, a secular magazine published in Minneapolis, ably covers the subject, and The Review heartily endorses the article throughout.
 The Rev Lucian Johnson, a priest Of Baltimore, son of a distinguished citizen of Georgia, Richard Malcolm Johnston. the scholar, author and edu- cator, makes an appeal to the sense of decency of southern protestant" which might as well be extended to apply to all protestants, everywhere
 me EGlllldu IOl q IGllSlUuS JOll- nal; if the faith of it's editorial staff must be considered in determNning its bias, then it is necessary to say that it is protestant rather than Catholic, in it's personal character. He who writes this is a protestant and as such he is amazed and ashamed to admit that the indictment of Father Johnston, a gentleman as well as priest, is warranted by the facts.
 Che of these infamous publications, loathsome beyond the power of words. this journal has already referred to in language as plain as it is possible to print. It is called The Menace, and it is published in Aurora, Mis- souri. The anonymous coward who sent The Bellman the marked copies which provoked the reference to it, continues to send them occasionally. He is afraid to put his name on the copy, lest he be called to account as a disseminator of indecent litera- ture: he is afraid to put the name Of the publication on the outside wrap Fer. lest the filth contained in it's bestial pages be consigned to the fire without closer examination. There is no way. apparently, of pre- venting the receipt of this printed cesspool. but the anonymous sender poets that the road will be complet. ed by May 1.

moved from this cut in order to get the seven per cent grade.
 The rock and earth that is being removed from the cut is being carted for a distance of about 500 feet down the road to the first cement bridge, where it will be necessary to make a six-foOt fill in to make the road measure up to the seven per cent grade. It will require approximately 2.000 tons of rock and earth to fill in this place
 Must Move Houses.
 Two houses that stand on the road extension site will have to be moved. One is a tumble-down adobe that is unoccupied and apparently practical ly valueless. This will be demolish. ed. The other is two room lumber shack that stands on the site between the two bridges. 1t is occupied and belongs to a man named Davis. This house will be moved by the city.
 Several beautiful cotton wood trees in the yard of Dr. c. N. Hunt will have to be cut down as the filling in of the road way will bring the road surface up to the first branches of the trees. The well at the Hunt res idence is directly on the extension site and this will be filled in and another dug by the city for pr. Hunt. Right of way privilege was assigned to the city by several property own CTS of that part of the city at points where the road diverged from the route of the original street, but in other cases property owners had built on the city property.
 Seven Per Cent Grade.
 The entire grade from the city pump house to the head of the can. yon will come within the seven per cent standard Of the street railway franchise but in order to do this the present road had to be raised six feet at the lower end of the extension and lowered or cut five feet at the upper end. The fill at the lower end will strike the natural grade a few yards west of the Hunt residence and the cut at the upper end will begin at the west side of the upper spill. way and extend to the city limits on the west. The road will termin- ate about fifty yards below the Sims residence.
 The construction of the road to the city limits will open up a beautiful section of the city to residential de- velopment. The hills both to the north, west and south are gently sloping and rolling and could be turn. ed into a veritable landscape garden by an expert. There are several ac' res of ground in the fiat. which is as level as the palm of the hand and if this is properly drained and protected against the mountain floods 1t would be a pretty site for a residential col Ony if the demand for room for homca should ever result in the extension of the present residence section oi the district. Under present condi tions it may become an exclusive resi- dence section or silk stocking colony The steel for the two bridges has been ordered from Fl Paso and is ex l pected to arrive in a week or ter days and the city has sufficient ce ment to complete the cement work Street Superintendent Mcdonald eN

much experience in this line OF busi-
ness and will probably do much to
provide better facilities for shipping
express in his division. The forma-
ton of the division was due to the in

the amount of business on the three
divisions being too large for their
agents to successfully handle.

UNDERWOOD WINS GEORGIA.
CONGRESSMAN CAR
RIES STATE BY SMALL MA
JORITY.

and Floyd Go to WiIsOn-Heayy
Vote i'm Towns.

Atlanta, Ga, May Oscar Under
wood Of Alabama, is Georgia's choice
Tor the Democratic nomination for
president as expressed in the presi-
Dental preference primary held in
this State today. Practically complete
but unofficial returns compiled up to
midnight showed that he carried
about 100 Of the 146 counties in the
State and that his majority over
Woodrow Wilson will be between T.
600 and 5000.
The names Of Champ Clark and
Judson Harmon also appeared on
the ballot, but they received a COM
paratively small vote. Many voters
utilized blank line on the ballot to
insert tho ii. ,es Of Theodore Roose-
felt, w. J. Bryan, Hoke Smith and
other politicians.
Cnderwood's majority means that
he will carry Georgia's 2S votes to the
national convention at Baltimore IN
June. The State Democratic conven-
ton will be held May 10 to ratify the
action Of the primary.
An interesting feature Of the re-
turns was the fact that Washington
county, the home Of CONGRESSMAN
Thomas w. Hardwick, who made n
strong fight for Wilson, gave an Of
fetal majority of 121 for Underwood.
The Alabaman's success is notable in
view of the fact that five leading coun-
ties, Fulton, Chatham, Bibb ana
Richmond and Floyd, gave majorities
for Wilson. In Fulton alone Wilsoa
received a majority Of more than 2
500 votes
United States Senator John II.
Bankhead. in charge of Underwood's
national headquarters. who was in At
lanta watching the results of the pri-
mary, was greatly pleased. "Georgias
action" he said, puts Underwood in
a Sli onS pOSItiOIi TOT the nomination.
He will go to Baltimore with a strong
backing. He will have Alabama's "a
votes. Georgia's 2S; Florida's 10 and
there is no question about Mississippi.
With others to depend on Mr.. Under
wood will go into the convention
with at least $50 votes pledged to
him."
Warm, sunny weather throughout
the State resulted in unusually heavy
votes in the cities and the towns. but
in the country precincts the vote was
light, the farmers taking advantage Of
the weather to continue farm work.
While the names of Judson Har.ron
and Champ Clark also appeared on

was cast for them. the fight in this
