GOOD NATURED AGAIN
Good Humor Returns With Change to
Proper Food.

For many years I was a constant
sufferer from indigestion and nervous
ness, amounting almost to prostra-

MY blood was impoverished, the
vision was blurred and weak, with
moving spots before my eyes. This was
a steady daily condition. 1 grew ill

Nothing l ate agreed with me, till
one day l happened to notice Grape
Nuts in a grocery store, and bought
a package out of curiosity to know
what it was.

first, eating it with cream, and now I
I soon found that Grape-Nuts food was
supplying brain and nerve force as
nothing in the drug line ever had
done or could do.
1T wasn't long before l was re-
stored to health, comfort and happi-
ness.
Through the use of Grape-Nuts food
my digestion has been restored, my
nerves are steady onc more, my eye

ECONOMY IN EVERY LINE
Railroads Utilize Everything That Is
Of the Slightest Possible
Value.

All tn. sawdust that accumlulates
in the various shows of a railrcaL
system is carefully saved. What /
needed is used for packing ice f.
shipment and the rest is burned
the furnaces In the shops, thus G.
ting down the coal bills. In cre lar~
shop alone the sawdust and shaving
exceed a carload each day, so ii
makes no small item in the fuel bill
of the shops
Waste paper Is one of the big items
of savings for every company. In
the general Office the waste paper
gathered up by the porters and baled
carload month from this one sta
ton. There are other stations where
the waste amounts to two or three
tons a week. All the paper is saved
and baled and then sold. Cars are
sent over the system periodically to
pick up these accumulations of waste
paper. This includes the ordinary
waste paper that everyone throws
into the waste baskets and also the
tons of old records that have become
obsolete and are destroyed.
A few months ago a western rail-
road sent out notice to all its en-
ployes asking them to use one add
tional inch of each lead pencil before
1t was thrown away and the company
said that this would make a saving
of $4,000 a year to the company.

The two worst railway disasters
which ever occurred in the United
Kingdom were the Tay Bridge disas-
ter on December 2S, 1879, when IA
lives were lost through the train and
bridge being wrecked during terrific
storm, and the Armagh disaster on
June IL, 1889. when two excursion
trains collided at Killooney, resulting
in 80 deaths and injuries to 400 other
passengers. In the latter case the
officials were charged with negligence.
The Abergele disaster in 1867. on the
L. & N. w. r. r., when the Irish mail
collided with petroleum trucks and SO
people were killed; the accident at
Shipton, near Oxford, in 1874, when
G. w. r. r. train ran over an ombank-
ment, resulting in "a deaths and 70 in
jured; and the more recent Salisbury.

MILD WINTER ALWAYS
FOLLOW A DROUGHT.

The unusual mild and open
winter following the drought of
last summer calls to mind to
many weather observers that a
mild winter and a big crop
year have always followed a
drought. Following the great
drought of 1854 fires were not
required more than half the
days of the winter and the
people sat out doors In January
and February. Following the
drought of 1881 the winter was
so mild that no ice was gathered.
Flowers were in bloom in jan
uary and in February the peach
trees were in full bloom and it
never got cold enough to kill
the crop. Farmers pastured all
the winter and the crops of 1882
were the largest ever raised in
many counties. This winter
following the drought of last
summer is starting off like the
winter of 8I-82 and people are
predicting another open winter
with little or no cold weather.

LINEN SHOWER

On Saturday afternoon at
her beautiful suburban home on
the Winchester road, Miss Cora
Little, delightfully."- entertained
with linen shower for Miss
LYDIA Faulkner, bride elect of
Bennett Hughes.
The halls, library and porlar
were beautifully decorated in
Xmas colors, ferns, palms and
hon eysuckle.
A number of friends assem-
bled to welcome the bride-to-De
and enjoyed the hospitality of
the lovely young hostess. AT
the appropriate time the guests
entered the library with Miss
Faulkner where the gifts were
showered upon her from a hoop
over the arch-way. After the
beautiful linen pieces were
graciously received and duly
praised and complimented by all
present, the guests were invited
into the dining room where an
elegant course luncheon was
served. The dining room was
decorated in honeysuckle and
narcisus, the principal feature
being the table which had for a
center-piece a large rainbow
arching over silver and cut glass
candelabras. AT each end of
the rainbow, honeysuckle and
narcisus were banked and little
pots of gold turned over among
the flowers.
The place cards were celluloid
with hand painted rainbows,
and bright new pennies tied at
the lower corner with gold
card. The favors were small
leather-back books containing
poems from favorite authors.
After drinking toasts to the
lovely guest of honor and wish
ing her joy and happiness and
more sunshine than rain through
the fifty years of her golden
wedding day, the guests took
their departure. Receiving
were Miss Little, Miss Faux
ner and Miss Jessie Louise
Hughes, of Winchester. Assist
ing were Mrs. E. r. Little and
Mrs. John Greenwade.

Too Late,


Two of the most impressive sights
of a railroad grading camp are the
marvellous alacrity of the men In re-
spending to the call for dinner and
their quickness In wrapping them
selves around their grub. During con-
struction of the new lines of the
Louisville & Nashville in Kentucky an
old farmer furnished one of the grad
ing camps with vegetables. He often
arrived at the camp at meal time,
and was greatly impressed with the
voracity of the men. When the call
for dinner was given every man made
rush for the table and the food dis
appeared in double quick time.
One day a workman on his way to
the table tripped on the root of a
tree and fell He lay all sprawled
out, making no attempt to rise. The
farmer In great concern rushed to
him.
Are you hurt, are you hurt?" he
asked anxiously.
No" answered the man.
We'll, why don't you get up and
go to dinner?"

Bridqe BUILDING Chances.

The remarkable growth of the auto
mobile industry In the last few years
has revolutionized bridge building on
country roads. according to Stewart
Mcdonald, vice-president of the Moon
Motor Car company, who took an auto
trip east recently He said:
I'm many places In the country
where the roads are being worked.
concrete culyerts are being put in. At
many points, too, where year or two
ago there were rickety wooden
bridges on our recent trip we found
substantial steel and iron structures.
This development in bridges and
culverts is a big factor in increasing
the safety of roads TO farmers as well
as automobiles"

FORMER RESIDENT
VISITS OLD HOME.

Mr.. l. N. Birch of Ruchville,
Ind, who lived near Spencer
this county for several years is
here visiting relatives and
friends. Mr.. Birch lost his wife
November the 9Th, after an ill
ness of about a year. This will
be sad news to many friends in
this neighborhood. Mr.. Birch
reports that land around Rush
vile is selling for from $4,000
to 100000 per acre and that he
does not believe any land can be
bought in Rush county for less
than $4,000 per acre. The soil
is especially adapted for corn
raising and thousands of hogs
are raised. The Indiana stock
man usually comes to Kentucky
for his cattle. Farm labor costs
from $I.oo to $3.50 per day.
The past year has been very
prosperous one for the farmers
of his section. Mr.. Birch will
spend about ten days here.

TRAcERY WOULD
AID RACING IN u. S.

IL is to be regretted that Aug
ust Belmont has seen fit to keep
his great thoroughbred stallion,
Tracery, in England.
America could have used him
to advantage. When racing
was all but killed in New York,
hundreds of stations and mares
were sold out of the country
and save for the return of Uncle
Peter, Pan, Colin and few
other performers on the turf,
little, if anything, has been done
to rehabilitate the breeding
farms, the horses in the mean
time which have been retired
from active campaigning in the
general run not being note
worthy, the exceptions we recall
off-hand being Uncle and Fair
Play. The latter has placed
the stamp of success on his first
progeny, but there is prevail
ing opinion that Tracery would
look better in his place at Mr..
Belmont's Nursery Stud at Lex
ington, Kentucky.
Tracery is an exceptional
horse; in England they regard
him as qualified to take his
place alongside the greatest
thoroughbreds Great Britain
has seen in a score of years.
Coming as he does from an ex-
cellent line, one which produces
winners with each successive
generation, and these an impro-
vement one over the other,
Tracery would go a long way
with the oppol tunities which
Nursery and the best of outside
studs would afford to assist in
the much desired rehabilitation
of the American thoroughbred.
Since racing seems destined to
enjoy another period of activity,
what is most needed is high
class horses. We will breed
good ones from what our breed
ing farms have to offer in the
way of blood lines, but one stall
lion like Tracery would do more
to accomplish results than all
the others-Peter Pan, Colin,
Uncle and a few others just
making a mark-excepted, this
provided Tracery turns out to
be success as a stud PROPOSE
ton on which score Englishmen
have no doubt, judging by the
demand for the services of Mr..
Belmont's great horse, whose
book for the first season already
is filled and at the remarkable
fee of $4,000, the greatest fee
ever paid for an untried stall
lions services in England or in
any other country.

SOUTH BEND WATCHING
PROGRESS OF LEAGUE?
Local Baseball Men Somewhat Sur
prised To Hear They Consider
Berth in Class ID Circuit.

The monotony In baseball circles
was broken last week by 4 startling
story regarding the possible affilia-
ton Of South Bend with the member
ship of another league than the Three
Z. That organization is the Michigan
state league.
The effect of tho announcement
that South Bend is watching the VOL
VERNE circuit may be cleaned from
the fact that the combined population
OF the six members does not exceed by
more than 1000 OF 5000 the popula-
ton figures shown in the last census
taken here. The league Is also ideally
located in regard TO South Bend. the
towns being strung out along Lake
Michigan from north Of Grand Rapids
to the northern part of the lower pc
ninsula. The largest town boasts
1900 inhabitants and the smallest,
Boyne City. claims all OF 5000 souls
including summer resOrterS.
Local baseball men were somewhat
surprised TO learn they were watching
the progress OF this class ID circuit.
