THE DOCTOR'S GIFT
Food Worth Its Weight in Gold.
We usually expect the doctor to put
os on some kind of penance and give
us hitter medicines.
A Penn. doctor brought a patient
something entirely different and the
remits are truly interesting.
"Two years ogo," writes this pa-
tient, 'I was a frequent victim of acute
Indigestion and biliousness, being al-
lowed to eat very few things. One day
pur family doctor brought me a small
package, saying he had found some-
thing for me to eat.
"He said It was a food called Grape-
Nuts and even as Its golden color
might suggest it was worth its weight
In gold I was sick and tired, tryiug
one thing after another to no avail, but
consented to try this new food.
"Well! It surpassed my doctor's
fondest anticipation and every day
since then I have blessed the good
doctor and the Inventor of Grape-
Nuts.
"1 noticed Improvement at once and
In a month's time my former spells of
Indigestion had disappeared. In two
months I felt like a new man. My
mind was much clearer and keener,
my brid.v took on the titallty of youth
and this condition has continued."

USE AUTO TO AVERT LYNCHING
Logan County Sheriff Rushes Negro
Who Killed Two Po'licemen From
Jail When Mob Gathers.
NewkMc, Okla., Sept. 9.—I>ew1s
Green, a negro bootlegger, arrested in
Guthrie yesterday after he had shot
to death two Guthrie policemen who
raided his "joint," was locked in jail
here today, his life saved from a mob
that threatened lynching by the strat-
agem of Sheriff Mahoney.
When the mob began to gather at
the scene of the murder yesterday,
Sheriff Mahoney and a deputy rush-
ed to the jail, trundled the prisoner
Into an automobile and started north
toward Perry closely followed by the
mob. Near Mulhall the gasoine in the
rar began to run low, and Sheriff Ma-
honey, leaving his deputy to proceed
with the car as a blind, plunged into
the woods with his handcuffed pris-
oner just before the leaders of the
mob. rushed by. After walking a mile
through the brush Sheriff Mahoney
flagged a freight train and landed
Lewis safe in jail here early today.
Meanwhile despatches from Guthrie
told of the streets being filled with
armed men waiting for the mob lead-
ers to return with Lewis. A mass
meeting was held in Guthrie and a
fund raised for the use of the families
of Chief of Police Muzlow and Patrol-
man Isaac Caldwell, the dead officers.
Bartlesville, Okla., Sept. 9—Lon
Muxlow, the policeman murdered by a
negro bootlegger at GutHrie yester-
day, was stationed in this city early
last winter, where he worked as a
special enforcement officer under H.
A. Larson, head federal enforcement
officer for this district. He resigned
to accept a place on the Guthrie police
force.
APOLOGY FOR MR. JEROME.
Thaw Prosecutor Freed of Gambling
Charge and Court Says He's Sorry
For the Humiliation.
Coaticook, Quebec, Sept. 9.—William
Travers Jerome was acquitted tonight
of the charge of having gambled on
Thursday last on the station property
of the Grand Trunk railway here while
waiting for the immigration authori-
ties to pass on the cases of Harry K.
Thaw. In discharging him, the court
apologized for the humiliation to
which he had been subjected.
A country lawyer, Joseph Beauline.
by name, and an 80-year-old Justice of
the peace, James McKee, so mixed up
In the hearing in the case against
Jerome today that District Magistrate
Henry Mulvena, who had come here
from Sherbrooke by automobile 'i3
miles for the purpose refused to pre-
side and adjournment was taken un-
til tonight.
For 4") minutes counsel wrangled
and hurled suggestions of crooked
work, Jerome smiled, the crowd In the
court room alternately stamped and
hissed, and Magistrate Mulvena de-
clared he had been brought here under
false pretenses.
Jerome had come to Coaticook from
Montreal on the understanding that
his case, set for hearing on Thursday,
September 11, had been advanced to
today and that the justice of the peace,
McKee, who signed the criminal com-
plaint, bad agreed that Magistrate
Mulvena Should preside.
Complications arose as soon as Mag-
istrate Mulvena asked whether Justice
McKee had finaly authorized the mag-
istrate to preside.
"No, not formally," said A. ('. Han-
son, joint prosecutor.
"Last night he said he would, to-
day he said he would not."
Here Bauline declared the hearing
could not proceed.
DIFFER OVER WHEAT SEED.
Hoisington Men Say Ground Is to
Blame for Failure to Germinate.
Hoisington, Kan* Sept. 9—From ten
tests of seed wtieat made by the First
National bank of this cllv, from SO
to 95 per cent of the seed germinated.
Samples were taken from different
parts of the community. The belief
here is that the failure to germinate
In other tests in this county was he-
cause the tests were made in the
ground, which is too hot from the in-
tense heat of the summer and thai it
would be unwise to sow wheat tin I il
It turns cooler or a general rain fulls.
Lamed, Sept. 9 - Farmers in Pawnee
county, alarmed about the test made
In Rarton county regarding the failure
of this year's wheat to germinate, are
making a series of tests in this sec-
tion. Charlie Quants who made test
and who has already planted a part of
his crop for next year found that only
about, one grain in twelve to firtcua
would germinate.
On the other hand wheat from a
field across the road showed prac-
tically no loss. Klnier t'onurd of the
norlh part of the countv made an ex-
haustive test and icports that 9,ri out
of 100 grains germinated.
Convicts to Play Sleuth*.
Joliet, III., Sept. 9.—As n result of
the secret oath taken by the 4"i ron
vicir detailed to work on the roads
near Dixon to hunt down any of their
number who broke their word t f~hon-
or, there was today instituted a move
ment for a national organization of
paroled convicts who should strive ti.
hold paroled prisoners to their word
nnd to hunt down those who break
their paroles. Authorities of other
renlteitflarles where the honor lystem
Is In vogue will be asked to Join |n
the movement.
Backache Warns You
Backache is one of Nature's warnings
of kidney weakness. Kidney disease
kills thousands every year.
Don't neglect a bad back. If your back
is lame—if it hurts to stoop or lift—if
there is irregularity of the secretions—
suspect your kidneys. If you suffer head-
aches, dizziness and are tired, nervous
and worn-out, you have further proof.
Use Doan's Kidney Pills, a fine rem-
edy for bad backs and weak kidneys.

ALL TO HELP IN GOOD WORK
Aid of Everyone Interested In Fight
Against Ravages of Tuberculosis
Is Assured.
Churches, schools, labor unions, fra-
ternity orders and other organizations
to the number of 200,000 at least will
be asked to join the anti-tuberculosis
workers of the country in the ob-
servance of the Fourth National Tu-
beculosis day, which has been des-
ignated for December 1, according to
an announcement by the National As-
sociation for the Study and Preven-
tion of Tuberculosis. The movement
will be furthered throughout the coun-
try by more than 1,000 anti-tuberculo-
sis societies working through various
state organizations and the National
association. Personal appeals will be
made to clergymen, school principals
and leaders of various organizations
urging them to set aside a definite
time during the week preceding or
the week following December 7. for a
lecture on tuberculosis.
Advice Heaped In Profusion on Keep-
ers of Big City's Zoological
Gardens.
"The arrival of a baby animal or
bird of any kind from a hippopotamus
to a canary at either of the city zoos
gives people all over town a chance
to spread themselves In the matter of
names," suid a New York park keeper.
"Everybody wants the honor of
naming the baby. Letters come from
all parts of the city, and from the sur-
rounding country suggesting names
that the writers think appropriate.
Patriotism runs high among our cor-
respondents. If they had their way
half the animals in the park would be
called 'Abe' Lincoln, and a large part
of the other half 'Teddy' Roosevelt.
Regardless of the sex of the youngster,
these two presidential appellations are
urged upon us.
"Classical and Scriptural names also
have their advocates. Hercules and
Plato in particular are proposed.
"Of all the ladies of antiquity Niobe
seems to have first call. Once in a
while a writer of a sentimental turn
of mind suggests a more modern ro-
mantic name. Out of consideration for
the animal fancy names are taboo to
start with. To call a beast of the
jungle Violet or Queenie is enough to
shame the most docile of infants into
a reversion to type."
Banana Eaters.
Americans used to be called a nation
of pie eaters. Today a more appro-
priate term would be a nation of ba-
nana eaters. The United States takes
more than two-thirds of the bananas
shipped to the handlers in the world.
Part of this pre-eminence in banana
consumption is due to geography; the
source of supply on the Caribbean is
almost at our doors. Part is due to
accident; a Boston skipper introduced
the American public to this tropical
fruit while it was still unknown In
Europe. Whatever reason one may
choose to give, the United States is
the world's chief banana market, and
though the use of this fruit is increas-
ing abroad, the American boy remains
the Jamaica grower's best friend.
WATERY BLISTERS ON FACE
Smithville, Ind.—"Six months ago
our baby girl, one year old, had a few |
red pimples come on her face which
gradually spread causing her face to
become very irritated and a fiery red
color. The pimples on the child's face
were at first small watery blisters, just
a small blotch on the skin. She kept
scratching at this until in a few days
ber whole cheeks were fiery red color
and instead of the little blisters the
skin was cracked and sealy looking
and seemed to itch and burn very
much.
"We used a number of remedies
which seemed to give relief for a short
time then leave her face worse than
ever. Finally we got a cake of Cuti-
cura Soap and a box of Cuticura Oint-
ment. I washed the child's face with
very warm water and Cuticura Soap,
then applied the Cuticura Ointment
very lightly. After doing this about
three times a day the Itching and
burning seemed entirely gone in two
days' time. Inside of two weeks' time
ber face seemed well. That was eight
months ago and there has been no re-
turn of the trouble." (Signed) Mrs.
A. K. Wooden, Nov. 4, 1912.

"Golf? Why. man, you're crazier

bing around a little white pill in the

"What are you going to do?"
"Who, me? I'm going to get a row-
boat and pull over the lake and try
to get some fish."
"Fish? The last fish was caught
out of that lake three yearB ago."
"Well, I know that. Suppose I don't
get any fish, I've had a tiptop boat
ride, haven't I?"

with a young gentleman who had been

"Well," she sighed happily. "I am
an A. B. now. Of course you have a

"Yes," he replied, "but I am only a

The fair grad pondered. The de-

"Why, what is that?" she asked
"Bachelor," he said.—New York

Had No Use for It.
A little girl came down to dessert

ing i.n her throat, held up her plate
and said: "Does anybody want a clean

KEY WAS UNDER DOOR MAT
Important Information for Which Con-
ductor of Indianapolis Car Held
the Passengers.
The South East street car was hur-
rying on Its way toward the end of
the line. Near the ten hundred block
the single line branches out into a
switch. The cars slow up and the
passengers, generally known person-
ally by the conductor, often have time
to exchange pleasantries as the cars
pass. A German woman was on the
car coming downtown the other day.
As the car slid on the switch and
started to pass the other she got up
excitedly and waved toward the car
headed for the end of the line.
"Oh, Charlie! Oh, Charlie!" she
shouted at a youth on the other
car, evidently her son, on his way
home. Charlie did not catch the sig-
nal at first, and the cars gathered
speed.
"Charlie! Charlie!" came the voice,
th!s time more insistent. Then Char-
lie looked around and saw the other
car going oft the switch, with the
woman still waving excitedly.
The motorman was aroused by this
time and, thinking that the summons
was urgent, stopped the car and
Charlie jumped off and made a bee-
line for mother.
She met him at the door. "I just
wanted to suy that the key Is under
the mat at the back door!" she yelled.
And Charlie jumped off, waved at his
conductor and caught his car amid the
cheers of the other passengers.—In-

Wail From French Jurymen.
In France, as well as in England,
jurymen have their grievances. The
latest can easily be remedied. The
French minister of justice has re-
ceived an address signed by citizens
figuring on the Paris jury lists, pro-
testing against the bare appearance
of the courts where they have to sit.
They point out that if—tired of look-
ing at the judges, counsel, witnesses
and other parties to a suit—they turn
their eyes upon the walls, nothing but
an inartistic paper meets their gaze.
In order to relieve this deadly mo-
notony they beg that a print of Prud
hon's famous picture, "Justice In Pur-
suit of Crime," may be hung in each
court

"Hurry up that order!" sald'a trav-

"Yas, sah, boss!" the waiter an-
swered as he hurried off.
After what seemed an almost Inter-
minable wait to the traveler, he re-
turned with the food. As he set It
down he asked:
"Is you de gentlemans what feared
he'd miss de train?"
"Yes," was the reply.
"Well, you needn't be feared ob dat,
sah, no mo'."
"Good! Is It late?" the traveler in-
quired.
"No, sah, it's done gone!" was the
waiter's affable and reassuring re-
sponse.
