Scott went down and brought them back ONLY a
year ago when more of these sporadic disturb
ances started, this time in the Navajo country.
Scott had to leave his cavalry command on the
Mexican border and adjust matters. These are
but few instances
How does he do it? Because he knows the
savage and the savage mind. He knows how
the savage thinks. He has the ability to put
himself in the place of the savage

you and the great father at Washington, whose
soldiers the leaves of the trees do not

there not some manner in which we can adjust
the differences; way to restore the friend

wishes you well?"
Ard then they get down to a settlement
One of General SCOTS ancestors was Benjamin
Franklin-the generals mother was great
granddaughter of the immortal Ben 1t would
appear that some of the genius, the philosophy,
the diplomacy and the conciliating powers of
this the first American diplomatist, has descend
ed upon the new chief of staff
But, like old Ben, whose phrase on the sign
ing of the Declaration of independence, 1--WE
must all hang together, or we shall hang sepa-
ratey," is immortal, General Scott knows when
to abandon pacific measures and to fight
So it was when, in 1903, he became governor
of the Sulu archipelago he determined that this

he had mastered the Indian mind. A licking
first and brothering afterward plainly was the
course marked out for him.
And such licking he gave them!
Then came the task of breaking up the slave
trade in the islands of the archipelago. Alter

Adaptability, that is one of his qualities He
is adaptable because he knows men, civilized

Agrees With Him About Food.

A trained nurse says: 'In the prac-

many points in favor of Grape-Nuts
food that l unhesitatingly recommend
it to all my patients.
1T is delicate and pleasing to the

"This recipe is my own idea and Is
made as follows: Soak teaspoonful

an hour. strain and serve with the
beaten white OF an egg and a spoonful
OF fruit juice for fiavouring. This af
fords great deal OF nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can assimi-

MY husband is physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders ii
many times for his patients.

Winter Chills Bring Kidney Ills

A spell of cold, damp weather is
always followed by fine crop OF kid
ney troubles and backache.
Colds and chills damage the kid
neys. Other troubles common to win
Ter weather are just as bad. Grip, tom
silitis, quinsy, pneumonia or any other
infectious disease hurts the kidneys
by overlooking the blood with poisons.
The kidneys get worn, weak and in
famed trying to work it on.
1t isn't hard to strengthen weak
kidneys though, if you act quickly.
At the first sign of backache, dizzy
spells, headaches, loss of weight, nerv-
ousness, depression and painful, irreg-
ular kidney action, start using Doan's
Kidney Pills. Rest the kidneys by
simple eating, avoidance of overwork
and worry, and getting more rest and
sleep. A milk diet is fine.
This sensible treatment should
bring quick benefit and prevent seri-

NEW ENGINE FOR ELECTRIC 3.
LIGHT PLANT INSTALLED

Expert electricians have been at
work for some time installing the
new engine to supply alternating cur
rent for the city consumers. They
have completed their work of putting
the machine together and it was
given a trial run yesterday The big
$50 horsepower 'IdeaP' engine is
attached to a w Westinghouse A. G.
generator. and is fitted with coreless
m 8 system. As an electrical en-
gine it is one of the smoothest run
ming of its kind and will be able to
furnish power for the local plant for
long time to come.
The current from the new equip
ment was turned on today for use by
the Spaulding Elevator Company's
new plant It is probable that the
work of changing over the rest of the
system will not be undertaken until
warmer weather sets in.
