Says Wall Street Has Turned Out More Embezzlers Than Fagin's School Did Thieves. Evory analysis undertaken shows this food to be made strictly of Wheat and Barley, treated by our processes to partially transform the starch parts Into a form of Sugar, and there fore much easier to digest. Our claim that It Is a "Food for Brain and Nerve Centres" is based upon the fact, that certain parts of Wheat and Barley (which we use) contain Nature's brain- and nerve building ingredients, vis.. Phosphate of Potash, and the way we prepare the food makes it easy to digest, and assimilate. Dr. Geo. W. Carey in his book on "The Blochemic System of Medicine" ays: "When the medical profession fully understands the nature and range of the phosphate of potassium. Insane asylums will no longer be needed. "Tbe gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely by the inorganic cell-salt, potassium phosphate. "This salt unites with albumen, and by the addition of oxygen creates nerve-fluid, or the gray matter of the r brain. "Of course, there is a trace of other salts and other orgnnlc matter in nerve-fluid, but po asslum phosphate is the chief factor, and has the power within Itself to attract, by Its own law of affinity, all things needed to manufacture the elixir of life. There fore, when nervous symptoms arise, due to the fact that the nerve-fluid has been exhausted from any cause, the phosphate of potassium is the only true remedy, because nothing else can possibly supply the de ficiency. "The Ills arising from too rapidly consuming the gray matter of the brain cannot be overestimated. "Phosphate of Potash, Is to my mind, the most wonderful curative agent ever discovered by man, and the blessings it has already conferred on the race are many. But 'what shall the harvest be' when physician everywhere fully understand the part this wonderful salt plays In the pro cesses of life? It will do as much as can be done through physiology to make a heaven on earth. "Let the overworked business man take It and go homo good-tempered. Let the weary wife, nerves unstrung from attending to sick children or en tertaining company, take it and note how quickly the equilibrium will be restored and calm and reason assert her throne. No 'provlngs' are re quired here. We find this potassium salt largely predominates in nerve fluid, and that a deficiency produces well-defined symptoms. The begin ning and end of the matter la to sup ply the lacking principle, and in molecular form, exactly as nature furnishes it in vegetables, fruits and grain. To supply deficiencies thilHs the only law of cure." Please observe that Phosphate of Potash Is not properly of the drug shop variety but Is best prepared by "Old Mother Nature" and stored In the grains ready for use by mankind. Those who have been helped to better health by the use of Grape-Nuts are legion. "There's a Reason." BRAIN POWER Increased by Proper Feeding, A lady writer who not only ha done good literary work, but reared a family, found In Grape-Nuts the ideal food for brain work and to de velop healthy children. She writes: "I am. an enthusiastic proclalmer ot Grape-Nut a a regular diet. I for merly had no appetite In the morning and for 8 year while nursing my four children, had Insufficient nourishment for them. "Unable to eat breakfast I felt faint later, and would go to the pantry and eat cold chops, sausage, cookies, doughnuts or anything I happened to find. Being a writer, at times my bead felt heavy ani my brain asleep. "When I read of Grape-Nuts I be gan eating It every morning, also ve It to the children, Including my 10 month old baby, who soon grew M fat as a little pig, good nntured and contented. "I wrote eyeulng and feeling the ieed of sustained brain power, began etlug a small saucer of Grape-Nut with milk, Instead of my usual indl KWible hot pudding, pie, or cake for dwsert at night. "I grew plump, nerves trong, and " wrot my brain was I'.ctlva clear. Indeed, the dull head pain never returned." P08TUM CEREAL CO., Ltd , Battle Creek, Midi. New York City. William J. Bryan brought all his InvecMve Into play to tell what he think of tho New York Stock Exchange and to de nounce laws'ers who "stand behind corporations who violate the law and tell them how to do It with safety." Addressing the Civic Forum, In Carnegie Hall, ho praised President Roosevelt, and described the Clear ing House certificates issued through out the country to relieve the money stringency as "no-ceut dollars." He branded the Stock Exchange as worse than Monte Carlo. He declared its members use loaded dice and prac tice every form of gambling and swindling known. He asserted that the Exchange turned out more em bezzlers than Fagin's school turned out thieves, and wound up his denun ciation by the utterance: It is a mystery to me why the eighty million people of this country do not rise in their indignation and drive theae gamblers into honesty or out of the country." Cheers that reverberated for two minutes through the auditorium greeted this sentiment, and they were followed by thunderous outbursts when Mr. Bryan attacked the monop olists who "reap rewards by cornering the necessities ot life." "It Is time," he said, "that the masks of respectability be torn from these monopolies, and they be re vealed In all their ugliness and ghast Uness." The subject assigned to Mr. Bryan was "Thou Shalt Not Steal," and he talked on the topic for two hours. Mr. Bryan's Address. Mr. Bryan said in part: "To steal or to commit larceny may be defined as the wrongful tak ing of another's property. Law writers have divided larceny Into two classes petit larceny and grand lar ceny thi former term being used when the property stolen is of little value, and the latter when the value is greater. There Is a tendency in modern times to divide grand larceny into two-classes, so that now we are Inclined to think of larceny as petit larceny, grand larceny and glorious larceny. By glorious larceny I do not refer to the policy which nations have indulged in of taking the prop erty of other nations by force an act, that is sometimes described as not' only innocent, but even patriotic: I refer, rather, to that tendency, quite discernible at the present day, to re gard stealing upon a large acale as less reprehensible than stealing upon a small scale. It a man picks your pocket, or enters your house In the dark, or accosts you upon the high way and takes from you a few dol lars, you regard him as a vulgar thief. No one can have respect for such a person, and tbe punishments of the law are In such cases swift and sure, It the offender Is caught. "Even In the case of grand larceny, if the amount taken Is not very great, the thief find it difficult to escape, for he has no influential friends and he cannot hiro skillful lawyers to present technicalities in hi defense. If, however, he steals a large sum, it necomes quite a different matter, and the sum may be so large that we overlook the man's, rascality In our amazement at the genius which he ha displayed. As a rule, the man who steal a million dollars has a better chance of escape than the man who steal a thousand. So true Is this that It has been suggested that we amend the commandment to read, 'Thou shalt not steal on a small scale." We should attempt to culti vate a public opinion which will re move tho distinction between grand larceny and glorious larceuy and in sure tho enforcement of thv criminal law against all offender alike, re gardless of the amount stolen and regardless ot the social, business, or political position of the thief." Mr. Bryan's peroration was devoted to the Stock Exchange. "I am aware that here In New York," said he, "the Stock Exchange is regarded with a certain amount of veneration and that many who ve hemently denounce gambling in a backroom where winnings and losses are small, remain strangely silent in the presence of the enormous game that are played upon the stock mar ket, often with loaded dice. Gambling Is one of the worst of vices, and gambling in stocks and farm product Is the most destructive form in which the vice appears. Measured by the number of suicide caused by the New York Stock Exchange, Monte Carlo 1 an innocent pleasure resort by comparison. Measured by the amount of money changing hands, the contrast Is still greater in favor of Monte Carlo; and measured by the influence upon those who do not gam ble, the evils of Monte Carlo are in significant when compared with tbe evils of New York's commercial gambling houses. The New York Stock Exchange has graduated more embezzlers than Fagin's school did thieves. "After a crusade which convulsed a State and at least impressed the thought of the Nation, we got rid ot the Louisiana lottery and then we congratulated ourselves upon our vir tue. The men in charge of the lottery never did a tithe of the harm that the grain gamblers and the stock gam blers of New York do every day, nor did they ever exercise anything like the corrupting influences over poli tics. It has been asserted without denial that ninety-nine per cent. of. the New York purchases and sales ot stock and of produce are merely bet upon the market value, with no in tention upon the part of the vendor to deliver, or on the part of the pur chaser to receive. This Is not busi ness; it is not commerce; it Is not speculation; it Is common, vulgar gambling, and when to the ordinary chances that the Rambler take are added the extraordinary chances due to the secret manintilntlnn nf tho mar ket by those who are on the Inside, me siock market becomes worse than an honestly conducted gambling re sort. If a man tnlren n rhinu a wheel of fortune, he knows Jut wiim nis cnance is, and he knowB that the owner of the wheel ha a percentage of chances In hu but when a stranger gamble upon me biock or grain market ne Is at the mercy of those who, by obtaining con trol of tho visible supply, can destroy every natural law or business rule which the outsider know. I beg the spiritual advisers nf nnr cities to consider whether they cannot advance religion as well as morality by pointing out that the command ment. 'Thou shalt not steal ' I, and notoriously violated in the stock market ana in the grain pit by those who nrofess to believe in th nu.i and to have respect for its teaching. i ue swouen loriunes against which the President timtlv invaich. almost without exception fled their source in special privileges and in Governmental favoritism which lagai Ize injustice; It 1 not trange that the humble members of society complain, but it is strange that conscience does not more often restrain the rich and tho potent from asking for such un fair advantages. "The commandment, 'Thou shalt not Bteal,' will not have the weight that it ought to have among men un til It I so construed as to bring the feeling of guilt and shame to thoie who draw from the common store more than thev add In service ir wo can but create a sentiment which will make men aehamed, not only ot wrongdoing but of Idleness a well, and fill them with an earnest to make generous return to society for all the blessings that society con fers, it will be easier to nmnni ti, . varietle of larceny which are 10 diffi cult to define and which the officers of the law find it hard to detect and punish." Foxes. Uj XV. J. WHITWOOD. Quite a few year ago, when a lad, working in tbe sugar bush In April, a few inches of now fell one night, and tbe next morning the sun cams out warm ' and pleasant, and af ter gathering the sap that had accumu lated In tho buckets the day before, I took my double-barreled shotgun and started for a plecn of wood's a mile away on the top of a hill to hunt pigeons that were feeding on the beech nut. A I neared the woods I crossed a fox track, and knowing It was the season for the young to bo out, I moved with caution and concealed myself In a thick clump of young hemlock and looked the woods over carefully. After a little while I caw a young fox near an old log heap, playing like a puppy; I remained quiet and soon three more young foxes Joined him. I was within easy gun shot of them but did not wish tc kill them. They soon Beemed to be come tired of play and all went into the end of a hollow log. I hastened to the log and stopped up the hole in the end, nnd then went to the other end, but found no opening. As suring myself that I had the toxer stopped In the log, I placed large stone at the entrance so as to pre vent the old fox from releasing them and hastened back to the sugar bush for help. One man and three boys accompanied me back. And with an axe we cut holes In the log until we came to tho foxe, when we reached in with our hands and took them out of the log. They were about the size of a half-grown cat nt this time We took them home and each boy raised one. We put Btraps around their necks and fastened a light chain to it to hitch them by. They soon grew tame and playful as puppies. We often took them to the brook to bathe, and they always enjoyed play ing in the water and hunting foi crawfish and frogs. By hitching the ends of tow chains together w j would let them run and play as long . a the chains were on them; thej seemed to understand that they could not get away. They seemed to pre fer mice, crawfish, frogs, squirrels, grasshoppers and small birds, to chickens or other meat. They would sometimes eat sweet apples and green corn and were also fond ol milk. The four varied In color; the two females were nearly gray. One of the males were red, the other quite dark, its ears, sides and lege nearly black. The ends of all their tallB were white, while their bellies were whitish gray. We kept them until cool weather in the fall, when we took them back to the woods and released them. As soon as they found they were free they became as sly and apparently as wild as If they had never been handled by us. We could not find one of them five minutes after they regained their lib erty. I hunted for them many times that winter but never saw them again. From Recreation. Ex-Scaator Stewart' I4ght Lunch. Ex-Senator William M.

The House of Representatives ha set a useful precedent In applauding tho prayer. In the first place, It was short; in the second, it was racy; then, too, it was a fairly accurate definition of what the House wants. A a custom there would be advan tages in a general expression of .as sent on such ocenslons. Disapproval of a lengthy petition could be shown by respectful silence; approbation could be expressed as the House ex pressed It. Now and then a respon sive congregation which sincerely de sires to show Its approval of the minister's utterances is reduced to rustling Its gloves and shaking out its skirts.

The enormous amount ot 87,550,786 board feet was produced, and the mill vaue ef this wa 8821.151,888. In addition. there were produced 11.R58.290.000 shingles, valued at 824,165.555, ana 8,812,807,000 lath, valued at $11, 490,670. On the whole, It Is safe to say that the present annual lum ber cut of the United States approxi mates 40 billion feet, and that the total mill value of the lumber, lath, and shingle each year produced I not le than 700,000,000. These figures give tome Idea of how vat Is the lumber Industry and how great Is the demand for Its products. A glance at the klnds of lumber produced shows very clearly tbe passing of white pine and oak, one the greatest softwood and the other the greatest hardwood which the for est ha ever grown. Since 1899 the cut of white pine has fallen off more than 40 per cent., while that ot white oak has fallen off more than 36 per cent. To-day yellow pine leads all other woods In amount cut. while Douglas fir and this will bo a surprise to many come second. Since 1899 the cut of Douglas fir has i . -i i v nor rent. Loulriana is the foremost yellow pine Siate, with Texas, Mississippi, and Arkan Bas following In order. Washington produces by far the geatest amount of Douglas fir. Forest Service Circular. How Indians Poison Arrows. An old Cherokee Indian recently gave away the secret how the Indians of olden times used to poison their arrowheads for war purposes or for killing bears. They took a fresh deer liver, fastened it to a long pole, and then went to certain places where they knew they would find rattle snakes In abundance. About midday the rattlers were all out of their dens, colled up In the cooking sun. The bucks would poke the first rattler they found with the liver on the long pole. A rattler, unlike common snakes, always shows fight in prefer-, ence to escaping. The snake would thus repeatedly strike at the liver with its fangs until its poison was all used up, whereupon it would quit striking and try slowly to move on. The bucks would then hunt up anoth er rattler and repeat the perform ance, keeping at the work until the liver was well soaked with snake poi son. Then the pole was carried home and fastened somewhere In an up right position until the liver became as dry as a bone. The liver was then pounded to a fine powder and placed in a buckskin bag, to be used as need ed for their arrows. This powder would stick like glue to any moist ened surface and was death to any creature which it entered on arrows. Denver Field and Farm. Split His Ticket.
