we began to use Grape-Nuts food, able
to do all my own work. The dyspepsia,
headaches, nervousness and rheumatism

JERRY MuLLANE, WHO SAILED
THE RAFT, SAYS IT'S EF-
Feet LIFE SAVER.

jeremiah Mullane, an old sailor, of
No. "a Spencer place, Garfield, n. j.,
believes that the most effective life
saving contriyance in case Of ocean
disaster is folding raft of canvas
and rubber, with masts, thwarts, rud-
der and tent.
Forty-five years ago Jerry made
the trip from New York to Southamp-
ton on such craft
Still young at 20. with family of
daughters. sons and grandchildren,
Jerry has worked in rubber factories
ever since he quit the sea, 40 years
or so ago.
Born on the eastern end of Long
Island, he started seafaring as boy.
First he had five years Of whaling.
Following this he served on every
type of craft that rides a wave ex-
cept a modern liner. He served in
the navy under Admiral Porter.
In 1867, with John Mikes and
George Miller, Mullane was serving
as quartermaster on the American
steamer Santiago de Cuba of the Cen
tral American Transit company, run
ming between New York and Gray
town, Nicaragua. Mikes was second
officer and Miller, like Mullane. was a
quartermaster. At that time the Cen
trail American Transit company was
competing with the Pacific Mail line,
which conducted service between
New York and Aspinwall, now Colon.

devised among other novelties gun
which he had patented, had turned

on one of her trips to Greytown, to

signified their willingness to trust
themselves to the Perry raft, which
was manned by seven or eight hands
of the crew.
They had landed safely twenty sol

the skipper took the Santiago further
