We begin to think that the claims
of the Social Democrats are right,
for since the national conventions
of the two dominant parties were
held, the predatory interests of the
country are aligning themselves
behind both of the candidates nom
mated. 1t is a sort of good
lord, good devil" arrangement as
there may be doubts as to whose
hands they may fall into. 1t is a
notorious fact that the worst trusts
in the country backed Roosevelt in
his effort to secure the republican
presidential nomination-and yet
he howled against trusts and
bosses.

More important than the cosmetic
care of the complexion is its physical

youthful, there's nothing better than
common mercolized wax. 1t absorbs

unwholesomeness TO the complexion.
That's the difference BY all means,

SO easy to get an ounce OF the wax

cold cream and wash it OF the next
morning. There's no detention in
doors, the old skin coming off so
gradually no one suspects you're using
anything When in a week or two

FROM THE EDITOR.

He Forgot That He Had Stomach.
Talking of food, there is probably no
professional man subjected to a great
er, more wearing mental strain than
the responsible editor of a modern
newspaper.
To keep his. mental faculties con-
stantly in good working order. the
editor must keep his physical powers
up to the highest rate of efficiency.
Nothing will so quickly upset the
whole system as badly selected food
and a disordered stomach. 1t there
fore follows that he should have right
food, which can be readily assimi-
lated, and which furnishes true brain
nourishment.
"My personal experience in the use
of Grape-Nuts and Postum" writes
Philadelphia editor, so exactly agrees
with your advertised claim as to their
merits that any further exposition in
. that direction would seem to be super
fiuous. They have benefited me so
much, however, during the five years
feel justified in Withholding my testi-
mony.
General high living with all that
the expression implies as to a gener-
Gus table, brought about indigestion,
in my case, with restlessness at night,
and lassitude in the morning, accom-
panied by various pains and distress
ing sensations during working hours.
THE doctor diagnosed the condition
as 'catarrh of the stomach and pre-
scribed various medicines, which did
me no good. l finally threw physics
to the dogs gave up tea and coffee
and heavy meat dishes, and adopted
Grape-Nuts and Postum as the chief
articles of my diet.
Il can conscientiously say, and
wish to say it with all the emphasis
possible to the English language, that
they have benefited me as medicines
never did, and more than any other
food that ever came to my table.
my experience is that the Grape
Nuts food has steadied and strength
ened both brain and nerves to a most
positive degree. How it does it, |
cannot say, but l know that after
breakfasting on Grape-Nuts food one
actually forgets he has stomach, let
alone stomach trouble II is, in my
opinion, the most economical food on
the market, and has absolutely no ri

Big Real Estate DeaI.-A realty deal
was closed late Saturday afternoon
whereby George Chase becomes owner
of 90 acres of rich farm land just
south of Prospect park. and in close
proximity to the Peck, Velie and Nc
Master holdings. The consideration Is
not made public at this time, though it
is known the price ranged between
s275 and $500 an acre. The intention
OF Mr.. Chase is to subdivide the pro-
perty into five and ten-acre tracts, as
the land is all level and Of a rich black
loan soil, suitable for truck farms. Be-
lief of the new owner Is that he will be
able to dispose of the tract as soon as
it can be sub-divided as the opportun-
ity for revenue from truck farming, in
view of early establishment of a city
market in Moline, is considered a
splendid one.

nance, submitted to the city commits
sion yesterday an estimate Of the

innate after commissioners and the
mayor had submitted reports on the
money each desired to carry on the
city's business in his respective de
partment. 1t Is estimated that 1t will
cost 1858, 72S.13 to conduct the city,
business in the next II months, ant
the estimated available revenue II
$353.739.41. The report submitted b!
Mr.. Johnson was prepared merely tt

pairing the appropriation ordinance. HI
