FEED CHILDREN
On Properly Selected Food. It Pay*
Big Dividends.
If parents will give just a little In-
telligent thought to the feeding of
their children the difference in the
health of the little folks will pay,
many times over, for the small trouble.
A mother writes saying: "Our chil-
dren are all so much better and
stronger than they ever were before
we made a change in the character of
the food. We have quit using pota-
toes three times a day with coffee
ant! so much moat.
“Now we give the little folks some
fruit, either fresh stewed, or canned,
some Grape-Nuts with cream, occa-
sionally some soft boiled eggs, and
Feme Postun for breakfast nnd sup-
per. Then for dinner they have some
moat and veg tables.
"It would he hard to realize the
change In the children, they have
grown so sturdy and strong, and we
attribute this change to the food ele-
ments that, I understand, exist in
Grape-Nuts and Postum.
"A short time ago my baby was
teething and had a great deal of stom-
ach nnd bowel trouble. Nothing
seemed to agree with him until I tried

Rose From the Ranks to a Milllonalra
and Laid t9e Clever Trap That
Caught Jay Gould's
Blackmailer.
N-.w York.—Probably no man was
b-r. r town in the world of police
and a • was more feared by crooks
than T!. mas F. IJyrnes, former detect-
ive and Inspector who died in tills
city a few days ago. It was while In-
s; *-ct : and in charge of the detective
bureau at police headquarters in Mul-
berry street that Byrnes wou bis
greatest fame.
From tii- day he became a member
of the police, In August, 1&C9, until bo
retired on May 27, 1895, Inspector
Byrnes was a thief catcher first of all
ami It was as such that he became a
valuable sen ant of the people.
Byrnes rose quickly from the ranks.
He was first a putrolman, then a
roundsman, later on a sergeant, then
captain, inspe tor and finally commis-
sioner.
Thirty years ngo the city was over-
run with thieves and thugs. A reign
of terror had spread over the town.
Murders were committed almost night-
ly. It was at that time that Byrnes
was called to Mulberry street and told
to organize n detective bureau. Ho
had shown considerable detective abil-
ity while occupying positions of lower
rank in the police department, and this
had attracted the attention of his su-
periors to tho quiet but determined
man.
In a short time lie had organized
wliat became known as the central
office of detectives nnd assigned to
that bureau were the best thief catch-
Need of Beds for Consumptives.
The National Association for the
Study and .Prevention of Tuberculosis
says that iu seven states, Alabama,
Idaho, Montana. Nevada, Oklahoma,
Yi'yoming and Utah, with a combined
population of over 5,000,000, not one
bed for consumptives has been pro-
vided. In nine states and territories,
Alaska, Delaware, Florida, Kansas,
Mississippi, South Carolina, South Da-
kota, Vermont nnd West Virginia, the
number of beds for consumptltves in
each case is less th in fifty, while the
combined population of these sfates is
over 7,000,000. On the basis of 400
deaths to a million of population,
which Is approximately the present
rate in the United States, there would
he nearly 5,000 deaths annually from
tuberculosis in these 14 states, with at
least 20,000 cases of Ibis disease ail
the time, and less than 500 beds to
care for them.
A Cynical Synonym.
'Toor Myra Kelley," said a maga-
zine editor at the Authors’ club in
New York, ‘ was almost as distressed
ns Mr. Carnegie nt the spirit of graft
and crookedness rampant among us.
"5 he young writer, at a dinner of
magazine contributors, said that we
worshiped wealth—that was our trou-
ble. Then she crystallized her mean-
ing in an anecdote.
“She said that one man asked an-
other:
" What position does Blank hold in
the community?’
“ ‘A very honorable position,’ w as
tho reply.
"’is he wealthy?’
“ ’Wealth and honor,’ said the other,
’are synonymous terms in America to-
day.’ "

Thomas F. Byrnes.
rrs In the department. lie had only a
limited number < f detective sergeants
undt r his c mniand, but had the power
to re,luce those at any time and with-
out trial. In that way he was able to
surround himself witn tho Inst talent
the *!• partment could tiff* rd.
Byrnes was a man of striking per-
sonality. He was tail nnd well put
together, lie wore a big mustache
ami never talked in a loud voice,
except when he wanted to let people
know that he would stand no trifling
His wife was a school teacher 'n
her earlier days. Their daughters,
pretty nnd highly educated, adored
their father, who was intensely proud
of them. He was proud, too, of Mb
fine summer home nt Re,I Bank, N. J.
Byrnes was a very rich man. lie
was said to have been a many times
millionaire. He was a »it ness before
the Lexow committee and there ho
told how he came to make ills fortune.
It was generally believed that Jay
Gould was among other of his friendR
w lio gave him valuable tips on money
making.
Byrnes was not ungrateful. Gould
became the victim of a blackmailer,
who wrote so many threatening let-
ters that Gould was In constant fear of
his life. The letters were always
mailed on a Sunday, but never from
the same box. There was no clue to
his Identity and to catch him seemed
hopeless. Byrnes undertook tho task.
First lie distributed photographs of
an envelope addressed to Jay Gould
by the blackmailer among the entire
police force. Then, on a Sunday, ho
stationed a policeman, plain clothes
man or postal lnspoctor nt every mail
box In the city. Every time a letter
was dropped In the box was opened
and the letter inspected. Finally the
right man dropped in the right letter
and was promptly arrested.
"Colonel Wells,” as ho was known,
was convicted and got n long term.
Tho case perhaps brought Byrnes
more fame than any of his others.
Defect in Wireless Telegraphy.
It is remarkable that, while wire-
less telegraphy has made rapid
strides, very Important considerations
have been almost entirely neglected.
Much attention lias been paid to at-
tunemont nnd selectivity and also to
tho refinement of Instruments, while
the development of tho antenna has
been slow. At the receiving station
particularly not much has been done
toward locating the antenna wires so
as to intercopt a maximum of wave
energy. Aside from Braun’s fan-
shaped grid, which marked an epoch,
very little along this lino hns been ex-
tensively adopted in practise.
