MICHT HAVE SAVED IT. A Lot of Trouble From Too Much Starch Food. A little boy of eight years whose i parents did not feed him on the right kind of food, was always nervous and suffered from a weak condition of the stomach and bowels. Finally he was taken down with appendicitis and after the operation the doctor, knowing that his intestinal digestion was very weak, put him on Grape-Nuts twice a day. He rapidly recovered and about two ! months thereafter, his Father states, | “Te has grown to be stroug, muscular, and sleeps soundly, weighs 62 pounds, and his whole system is in a fine con- | dition of health.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. 1t is plain that if he had been put on Grape-Nuts at an earlier period in his life, and kept from the use of foods that he could not digest. he never would have had appendicitis. That disease is caused by undigested food decaying in the stomach and bowels, causing irritaticn and making for the growth of all kinds of microbes, setting up a diseased condition which is the active cause of appendicitis, and this is more marked with people who do not properly digest white bread. Grape-Nuts is made of the selected parts of wheat and barley and by the peculiar processes of the cooking at the factory, all of the starch is turned into sugar ready for immediate digestion and the more perfect nourish all parts of the body, particularly brain and nerve centres. A RECIPE FOR CHEERFULNESS. Mary Fanton Tells How to Make tiomne 6 . Pleasant Place to Live In. A woman has not made a successful home unless it is a cheerful place. She may be the best housekeeper in town, the best cook, the most dexterous Land at fancy work; but she is mot a freal home-malker, if you don’t [eel happy in her home, if you don’t recognize an air sof brightuess and gladness as _sooh as iS ‘she greets you. - And a home can’t be cheerful unless it is a plensant piace to live iny 1t musn’t remind you all the while that some one is worn out taking care of it. If the chairs are hidden away in pinafores, and the pretty carpet cov- ered with a crash bib, and the chande- lier draped, and each thing in the spot -to which it has been apparently nailed, a room won't impress the merriest guest as cheerful. : A room to make you welcome must look as though the family iiked to live in it: it must look simple enough not to suggest work and pretty enough to suggest taste, and it must seem easy to keep in order, and just enough in order to prove it is not neglected. d There must be light, and if possible, an open fire, and cushions near it, and books at your hand wherever you sit; and bookshelves low enough to reach, and little tables handy for workbasket or Book or damp. In other words, a room must have a pleasant ‘expression to win Hiking, which is true of people as well. Where a woman does her own house- work, as so many charming American women do, dl home must be as simple as is consistent with the expression of her love for good art and cheerfulness. And in furnishing her rooms she must consider just two points of view: What will be effectively durabla and what will be easy to keep clean. First of all, she must do away with her carpets. Bare floor and rugs are healthful, economical and artistic. They bury fathoms deep that most terrible fetish of house cleaning. They add a variety'of beauty to a room, and any one can De cleaned’ separately in case of accident. Their hygienic value is incaleulable. There are no coriers to make safe hiding for microbes, no hoiding of dust for a season. Dvery time it is swept it is clean all over. There is an immediate protest from many women to the effect that bare floors are too much trouble to keep clean. I khow there is such a tradition, and if floors were oiled daily and waxed weekly, every busy housekeeper would be justified in refusing them. But they are very little trouble, in- deed, if one just knows exactly how to take care of them. Once a week, in a room that is much used, they shouid be mopped with borax water, a pail of warm water with half a *eup of borax dissoived in it. The borax water will remove all soil without- touching the hand to thie mop—for you should have one that wrings itself at the side of the’pail—and leave the floor hygien- ically clean, destroying both moihs and microbes. Then with another mop of soft old flannel, oil the floor; put just a little oil .on the cloth, so that no rubbing in is necessary... When a floor is not used constantly it will only need the borax wash once ‘a month, with the: oiling once a week. ey A bare floor should also be dusted with a mop.between times, just as you vould run a carpet syeeper about for a fey minutes ofa morning. “The same: solution wil' clean a woodwork and furniture without in juring the lustre or changing the color. It is ideal for white fit and entirely does away with the. fatiguing use of a scrubbing brush. If the open fire is possible in this cheerful room, the brass andirons, fen- der and tongs can all be cleaned in the same economical easy way. Dip all the ses in a tub of borax water and tile suds, the water having just n hi ute with chamois s i dark 2Aladras car 1s that don’t have to Le washed, and hawd wood leather furni » that doesn’t have to be brushed, and ferns and palms instead of a lot of curios to lift and dust.

R. G. Dun & Co.’s “Weekly Review of Trade” says: Erratic weather. pro- duces irregularity in retail distribu- tion of merchandise at many points and Southern business is quiet ' be- cause of the depression in cotton, but the general outlook is considered very bright. Manufacturers report that confidence is warranted by the num- ber of new orders, while deliveries on old contracts are of satisfactory vol- ume. The best news comes from the iron and steel industry, while footwear factories are busy, woolen mills in ex- ceptionally good condition, and activi- ty is assured among cotton spinners as soon as the raw material market becomes settled. Failures for January thus far compare very favorably with last year’s returns, railway earnings increased 5.8 per cent. over those of 1904, and foreign commerce at this port for the last week shows a gain of $6,151,867 in imports and a loss of only $981,933 in exports. Although business is distributed somewhat irregularly owing to local conditions as to supply of fuel and other materials, the iron and steel in- dustry is moving: steadily forward. Statistics of pig iron production and consumption at the opening of the year testify to even greater prosperity than was anticipated. Nor is stability threatened by speculative inflation of prices as yet, although that is a dan- ger that usually menaces any revival of industrial activity. Coke ovens in the Connellsville region are produc- ing at maximum capacity and there is no handicap to progress in Pitts- burg, but storms and strikes still ef- fect fuel supply at some other points. Railways are placing large contracts for all forms of equipment, and the demand for billets and bars is so ur- gent that premiums above list prices are recorded on some transactions. Thus far the new year has not brought the anticipated demand for leather, but tanners are confident that the ac- tivity will not be long delayed. Prices are fairly steady. Failures this week numbered 324 in the United States, against 324 last year, and 28 in Canada, compared with 24 a year ago. MARIIEFTS. PITTSBURG. Grain, Flour and Feed.

A huge bull rhinocer- os rushed out of the bush and charged at full speed the so-called “up-mix- ed” train, which was siowing down as it approached the station Sultan Hamond, 218 miles from Mombasa. The train was stopped, and the “rhino” was discovered about 100 yards down the track. Slowly he re- turned to the jungle, and was lost to sight. He did not escape unharm- ed, for pieces of his thick skin were fierceness of his assault smashed the engine step and splintered the inch- and-a-half footboard of the first car- riage.

His Views For Sals. 4 The story is told by President Had- ley, of Yale University, who enjoys @ good story none the less if he himself be the victim. Mr. Hadley was trav- eling in Yellowstone Park when he chanced upcn a young mail, who from his appearance he judged was a stu- dent. «This is a wonderful scene, isn’t it?” said the Professor. The stranger smiled, nodded to his questioner and turned without speak- ing to look at the view. “Do you think,” asked Professor Hadley, now confirmed in his idea that he was talking to a student, “that this chasm was caused by some great u; heaval of nature, or is it the result erosion or glacial action?” What are your views'— “My views,” said the stranger quickly, opening a bag he carried con- taining photographs, “are only $2 a dozen and are cheap at the price.

Maunder, superintendent of the Greenwich Observatory, in re gard to the periodicity of magnetic storms and their recurrence at inter- vals coincident with the time required for a spot on the sun to go once around and reappear opposite the earth. The conclusion reached is that magnetic storms, like the spots on the sun, are very likely to come every 27 1-3 days, or at intervals exdctly di- visible by that time.
