FROM THE EDITOR.
He Forgot That He Had a Stomach

Talking of food, there is probably
no professional man subjected to a
greater, 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 disordered stomach. 1t there
fore follows that he should have
right food, which can be readily as
simulated, and which furnishes true
brain nourishment.
"My personal experience in the use
of Grape-Nuts and Postum" writes
a Philadelphia editor $50 exactly
agrees with your advertised claim as
to their merits that any further ex-
position in that direction would seem
to be superfluous. They have bene-
fitted me so much, however, during
the five years that have used them
that I do NOT feel justified in with
holding my testimony.
General high living with all
that the expression implies as to a
generous table, brought about indi-
gestion, in my case, with restless
ness at night and lassitude in the
morning, accompanied by various
pains and distressing sensations
during working hours.
"The doctor diagnosed the condl-
tion as 'catarrh of the stomach. and
prescribed various medicines, which
did me no good. I 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.
IT can conscienttously say, and
wish to say it with all the emphasis
possible to the English language,
that they have benefited me as med
icines never did, and more than any
other food that ever came on my
table.
my experience is that the Grape
Nuts food has steadied and strength
ened both brain and nerves to most
positive degree. How it does 1t
cannot say, but I know that after
breakfasting on Grape-Nuts food one

BAD BOYS !. ::
ENGAGED IN
SMALL RIOT
Necessary for Police to Go to
the Scene
Milwaukee Depot Was Scene
Of the Carnage
Waiting Room Was Piled
Ankle Deep With Snow

A small riot broke out about the
Milwaukee depot this morning and so
ugly did the fifteen or twenty boys
who were engaged in the affair be-
have that it became necessary for
Agent Degnan Of the railroad to sum-
mon the chief of police and officers
from the central station.
For some reason or others the boys
have been acting ugly towards the Of
hcials of the Milwaugee and have been
making a habit of congregating about
the station and misbehaving but they
had heretofore confined their actions
to personal abuse by word of mouth.
This morning they gathered about
the station, collected snowballs and
loose snow and threw it into the
station, and on the porch and when
Mr.. Degnan attempted to drive them
away from the premises they defied
him.
1t was then that the police were
summoned, and Chief Keefe and his
men soon appeared on the scene. They
found the Office of the station in a
terrible state with snow ankle deep on
the floor, the porch filled with snow
which was also piled UP against the
windows. The youngsters had been
yelling like q pack of wild Indians, but
they fed like sheep when the police
arrived and the officers were unable to
capture any of them.
Agent Degnan and other people who
reside in that vicinity have been
busily engaged since then in securing
the names of the boys and it is the
present intention to begin prosecu-
tions and the parents will find that it
is somewhat serious for the boys to
engage in such kind of work.
1T is stated by Chief Keefe that all
of the boys who were engaged in the
present melee reside in the vicinity of
the station.

EXPECTED RICHES
CAUSE OF TROUBLE

Grand Forks, n. D., Dec. 27.--Reger
Carroll, who has spent the past year
in the Canadian northwest as mem
ber of a gang of surveyors for the
Grand Trunk railroad, which is pene-
trating into the district west of Ed
monitor, through the mountainous
country, is home for the holidays.
visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
John Carroll, 1103 University ave-
nue..
Mr.. Carroll takes no stock in the
claims that have been made of al
legged mistreatment upon the part of
railroad contractors towards their
men. Charges of that nature have
been made during the past few
ject of investigation, but nothing has
come of the proposition yet.
In the surveying work, Mr.. Carroll
has been working along the Frazer
river, about $50 miles west of Edmon-
ton. John Henry and Leo Sullivan,
both of this city, have also been en-
gagged in the same work, but they
were about $50 miles from the end
of the track, and they would have
come back for the holidays. Mr.. Car
rolls surveying party was about fif-
teen miles ahead OF the steel layers
In talking of the labor situation,
Mr.. Carroll says the contractors ship
men out there, paying their fare and
giving them SO a day. From that is
subtracted 81 a day for board and
there also is a hospital and mail
carrying fee charged against them.
The complaints, Mr.. Carroll says,
come from men of the big cities who
have been shipped up there with the
idea that they were going to get rich
quick. When the anticipated riches
have failed TO come as fast as they
had hoped for, they become dis
gruntled, and trouble has resulted.
