CHANGE IN FOOD Works Wonders in Health. {t {s worth knowing that a change in food can cure dyspepsia. “I deem it my duty to let you know how Grape Nuts food has cured me of indigestion “J had been troubled with it for years, until last year my doctor rec ommended Grape-Nuts food to be useé every morning. I followed instruc tions and now I am entirely well. “The whole family like Grape-Nuts, we use four packages a week. You are welcome to use this testimonial as you see fit.” The reason this lady was helped by the use of Grape-Nuts food, is that it fs predigested by natural processes and therefore does not tax the stomach as the food she had been using; it also contains the elements required for building up the nervous system. If that part of the human body is in per- fect working order, there can be no dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre- sents the steam that drives the en- gine. When the nervous system is run down, the machinery of the body works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be used by small children as well as adults. It is perfectly cooked and ready for instant use.

The place was dimly lighted by a little oil lamp hung at one side; Philip recognized it at the first glance as the caravan in which he had escaped from | Chelmsford. The captain and the | melancholy man followed him in, the | latter closed the door carefully, while | the former produced from a little lock- er various botiles and glasses, with a | smiling face. ' “Not a word, Phil, my boy,” said | the captain, in a hoarse whisper, “till | sich time as you gets a drop of some- | thing warmin’ inside yer. You’ve vad {sich an uncommonly lively time late- \ly, an’ ’ave bin tumbled about to that | extent, as it’s a marvel ter me if you *’ave any system left at all. So down with it, Phil, my lad, with the noble | sentiment—I feels like a boy pirate meself—‘Confusion to the perlice!’” - “Iam more grateful to you, old friend, than I can say,” said Philip, “and if I can get these bracelets off I shall be able to drink or to do any- thing else with greater ease. How- ever, I’ll drink the toast with all. my heart.” He raised the glass in both | his manacled hands, with a laugh. “We'll ’ave them little ornyments ‘orf in ’arf a jiffy,’ said the captain, |diving into a locker again. “We | guessed you might have something of | that sort, as a little delicate attention from your friends, so we pervided ac- |cordin’. ’Bre’s a file from our ’andy- man’s toolbag, an’ I reckon I'd best ’ave a go at the rivets.” \ The captain set to work at once; | nor would he utter a word in reply to ‘any questions until the handcuffs were removed. It took some considerable | ‘time, and while the filing went on Philip noticed that the ‘melancholy man kept his eyes fixed upon the floor, only occasionally indulging in that ex- traordinary cough with which he had peen afflicted at the Chater Arms. At last, the handcuffs being safely put out of sight, the captain, turning to the melancholy man, said abruptly: “Now then, Skerritt, my boy, let’s know ‘ow this ’ere affair was brought orf, for the infermation of Mr. Chater. This, Phil,” he added, “is a man as is to be trusted with anything—from un- told gold to w’isky—a man as former- ly sailed under me an’ ’as joined me, as a sort of depitty clown. I'll own,” added the captain, in a hoarse whis- per behind his hand to Philip—“‘T'll pwn ’e don’t look it—but ’e’s got a way with ‘im, w’en ’e’s painted up, as would fairly astonish yer.” Mr. Skerritt immediately plunged into an account of his doings, and. of how he contrived to meet Philip; ex- | plaining it all with many of those curi- ‘ous sounds before referred to, and | with miuch rolling of one melancholy eye. He had a curious funeral voice, as though it had sunk below the usual | level, at some period of great de- pression, and had never been got up again. “The cap’n ’avin’ passed the word !as there was a shipmate in distress, I started out fer ter sight ’im; got wind that ’e might be expected in | Bamberton—wind an’ tide bein’, so ter speak, favorable. The cap’n ’ere comes as far as the cross-roads wi’ me, an’ we arranged signals. Then I ’eard a fair rumpus in the village, an’ got up jus’ in time to see the perliceman a- bein’ pounded in the ribs by a ole gent in his stockin’ feet, an’ Mr. Chater a-+ layin’ about proper among the lubbers as was a-tryin’ to ’old ‘im. I shoves ‘meself for’rard, an’ manages ter git with ’im an’ the perliceman w’en they starts fer Chelmsford. The rest ’e ; knows.” Here Mr. Skerritt laughed again, in that peculiar fashion of his, and looked more melancholy than | ever. “But, captain,” urged Philip, “you don’t seem to realize what a risk you run in thus defying the law and be- friending a man who is an outlaw. My debt to you is greater than I can pay; and I cannot permit you to run any further danger on my account.” “°Old ’ard—old ’ard, messmate,” | cried the captain. “Osses or no osses | —circuses or no circuses—I stan’ by |a friend. I confess I don’t understan’ the business—an’ I don’t like you a- running’ under false colors; . but you've give me yer word as ’ow you're innocent, an’ I’ll continue for to res- cue yer, once a week, if necessary— till further orders. I don’t take no notice of objections or risks; rescue yer I will, agin yer will or with it. An’ now, Phil, as we starts early to-morrer mornin’, I’d advise yer to turn in an’ git wot sleep yer can. An’, in order that yer may sleep with a easy mind, there’s some one as I’d like yer ter see afore I battens yer down for the night.” So saying, the worthy captain open- ed the door cautiously and crept down the steps. In a: few moments the door was opened again by another hand, and a light figure darted in and fell at Philip’s feet. It was Clara Siggs. ‘He was so astonished and so de- lighted at this unexpected meeting that, as he raised her from the floor and looked into her eyes, he bent his head and kissed her, quite on an im- | | se. “My dear girl,” he said, “this is the best part of all—to know that you are safe and well and in good hands. Tell me—how did you come here?” # By Tom Gallon. nd) ! think x : ze i » “Mrs. Quist, with whom I lodged at Chelmsford, gave up her house and came to join the captain. She has made up her mind to travel about in future with her husband—to look after him a littie, I fancy’—Clara laughed softly as she spoke—‘“and so I came with her?” “I saw your mother a few hours since,” said Philip, watching the girl intently as he spoke, “and assured her that you were with friends and well eared for. When will you return to her?” She looked up at him quickly for a moment, with a half-reproachful ex- pression on her face. “When you tell me to go,” she said, slowly. “No—not when I tell you, child; but when your own heart tells you. I wouldn’t have you think me ungrate- ful, for the world; I wouldn’t have you think I undervalue in any way your sacrifice for me, or your valua- ble help in my time of greatest need; I shall remember it all while God gives me memory to remember any- thing. But I should be a brute and a coward if I took advantage of it—or of you. You are very young, and have, I trust, a long and happy life before you; my life seems to be going down in shadows. “More than all else, 1 want you to that the Dandy Chater who lingered with you in the woods, and whispered foolish things to you, is not the Dandy Chater who holds your hands now and speaks to you out of a full and grateful heart. Perhaps—who can tell, child?—perhaps trouble and suffering have altered him—have made him see many things in a better light; perhaps he’s a different man al- together.” She was weeping quietly, with her head bowed down on the hands he held; but she did not interrupt him. “There’s 4n old mother at home, waiting to welcome back the pretty child she brought into the world and has held so often in her arms; there’s a gray-haired father who loves you; and there’s some one else—a good- hearted lad, with never a stain upon thim—who loves you, too, as you de- serve to be loved. Now, when does your heart tell you you must go back to them?” “I—I understand,” she said, almost in a whisper. “I’ve had time to think, during these few days—and this wild and foolish heart of mine seems to beat for them—for him—more than it ever did before. I should like to go back to them at once, to-morrow, now that I know you are safe. But will they understand?” “Your mother will understand ev- erything,” said Philip, with a smile. For three days Philip Chater re- mained with the circus, keeping hid- den during the day and only venturing out at night. During that time he had some narrow escapes from recap- ture: once he lay under a tarpaulin, which had been flung hurriedly over him, and heard a constable making minute inquiries concerning the miss- ing Dandy Chater, while Captain Pe- ter Quist gave as minute replies. Realizing, however, that he could net remain hidden much longer, and being fully aware of the risk which was run so cheerfully by the Captain and those associated with him, he determined to get away and to let what risk and danger there was be upon his own shoulders. He knew well, however, that the captain would never consent to his departure, and would be mortally of- fended at the mere suggestion of such a thing. Therefore he determined to steal away ,without giving any warn- ing of his intention. Clara Siggs, un- der a safe escort, had gone back to Bamberton, and the circus was al- ready making arrangements to move on farther afield. Accordingly, quite late at night, when all the people connected with the circus were sleeping, he started to make his escape. He had absolutely refused to occupy the caravan origi- nally intended for him, because he know that by so doing the captain and Mrs. Quist would be rendered practi- cally homeless; after much contention about the matter it had been arranged that he should sleep in a rough tent and in the company of the melancholy one. And on this night he lay wide awake in the darkness, listening to the heavy breathing of that gentleman and striving to make up his mind what course to pursue when once he should be clear of the little encampment. Fortunately the melancholy man was a heavy sleeper, and Philip was able to creep past him and get out ot the tent, under the stars, without rous- ing him or any one else. Standing there, in the silence of the night, with only those faint points of light glim- mering and winking above him, and no sound all about save the distant parking of a dog, Philip wondered what he should do—to what point of the compass he should turn. So far as he knew he stood absolutely alone, with all his battles still to fight. But even now, with a full knowledge of the dangers through which he had passed and the dangers he had still wo face, Bamberton—the scene of all his troubles—drew him like a magnet. The circus had moved on, some fif- teen miles to the westward of the vil lage; but Philip had kept careful note of the route taken, and was able to set out at once by the most direct road. There was but small fear of his meet- ing any one in the middle of the night; put, for all that, he was watchful and suspicious of every sound. He made straight for the Chater Arms, and reached it at about 5 o’clock in the morning; lying con- cealed at a little distance, he waited until he saw Betty herself throw open her window and show her blooming face to the fresh morning sun; creep- ing near, he signalled to her, and in a few moments she appeared at the door leading into the yard and beckoned to him. Before a word was spoken she drew him inside and hugged him in her hearty fashion, and wept a little in quite a womanly way. “Clara is with you?” was his first question. “Yes; an’ as well as well. But, my dear boy, wot brings yer back to Bamberton?” Philip hurriedly explained his rea- sons for leaving Captain Guist—rea- sons which Betty cordially approved. “You won’t need to worry yerself a bit, deary,” she said, “’cos that there idjut Tokely ’as took ‘isself back to Scotland Yard, an’ there ain’t nobody in the ’ouse ‘cept a drunken little wretch, wot seems to ’ave plenty of money, an’ is goin’ on in a fair way to empty my bar. An’ of all the strange things——” She stopped suddenly and looked at Philip and clapped her hands together, “Phil, dear lad, to think that you an’ ’im should ‘ave come together, at this time, in this place, an’ with ole Betty under the same roof!” Philip stared at her in astonish- ment. “Why, little mother,” he said, laughing, “what on earth are rambling about?” “Not ramblin’ at all, deary, but jus’ speakin’ of plain, honest facts. The man who’s sleepin’ upstairs now is a chap—a doctor—by the name of Cripps.” “Not the Cripps of whom you told me, Betty?” cried Philip, excitedly. “Not, the man who was paid to keep the secret of my birth?” “The very same,” cried Betty, with equal excitement. lad——” “Don’t waste a moment, Betty,” he cried. “I must sée this man at once.” “But ’e’s in bed—an sleepin’ like a pig; it took Toby an’ another man to get ‘im upstairs, jas’ night—an’ ’e fought all the way.” “] don’t care if he’s in bed—or where he is,” said Philip; “I must see him.” Persuaded at last that the matter was really urgent, Betty led the way up- stairs, pointed to a door, and hurried- ly retired. Philip Chater, after knock- ing once and getting no response, turned the handle and went in. Dr. Cripps must have gone to bed, as suggested by Betty Siggs, in a state of considerable excitement. His dilap- idated clothing was literally all’ over the room, as though he had stripped it from his person and hurled it in all directions. He was hanging half out of bed, as though he had made a vain attempt to stand on his head on the floor and had fallen asleep before ac- complishing it; so that his counte- nance, at all times an inflamed one, was literally purple. Philip, in his im- patience, hurried toward him, shook him into an upright position, and spoke his name. (To Be Continued.) ao SS FRENCH IDEA OF EDUCATION. Pupil Probable Future Station in Life. The whole system of education in France takes cognizance of the situa- tion of the individual in a way abso- lutely unknown to our American sys- tem of education. There is education for the masses in France, but this is regulated so that a child, boy or girl, is instructed according to his station in life. If the child has it in him he may advance to what rank he will, but in the beginning he is taught such branches of knowledge as best com- port with the limitations of his lot in life as it actually exists. When neces- sity compels the French girl receives an education which enables her to be self-supporting—that is, she is taught a trade or profession. She is taught this, however, in relation to the law that if a man will eat he must work, which is made to apply to both sexes alike in France; she does not, there- fore, aim to be self-supporting in or- der to attain the emancipation of her sex from any of the relations and functions which nature imposes upon women; on the contrary, the trades or professions in which she is most often skilled are those which pertain to the household and to the rearing of children. Ominous. “That,” said Senator Hale, referring to a political report, “is ominous. It is like the ominous speech of the maid servant. She had only been employed two days. In fact, her master and mistress had only been two days mar- ried. And going to the locksmith, she said: . “ ‘Will you please come to our house at once, sir?) When Mr. Newed start- ed out this morning he slammed the door so hard he broke the lock.’” Summing Up the Symptoms. “There are clouds before my eyes, doctor, and a roaring like distant thun- der in my ears. What do you s’pose it is?” “Um-m-m! Do you feel a chill as if the temperature had suddenly fallen?” “Yes, yes.” - “There, put that in your mouth.” “What—what is it, doctor.” “It’s a barometer.

Chicago, May 14.—Excitement such as has not been seen on the board of i trade since the “black rust” scare of {1904 existed Saturday, when wheat, which has been steadily advancing for several days, took another jump of more than 3 cents. Frantic efforts were made to get from under the ad- vance by the bears, but they were met jby a demand which came from ail | parts of the country and swept every- | thing before it. The high mark for the July option | was 915-4¢, for September 93 3-4c, and for December 95 1-§c. All options closed very close to the high mark | and with the bullish feeling still una- | bated. The cause of the upturn which has taken place in the last few days is the widespread belief that the crop of winter wheat this year will show a notable decrease as compared with that of 1906. The prevalence of cold weather in the West and Northwest, which is said to be holding back the crop in those sections; the freezing temperature in the Canadan North- west, which, it is said, has prevented seeding in many sections, and the damage said to have been done in the Southwest by the insatiable appetite of the green bug also aided the rusl upwards. MEXICAN MINE DISASTER. Fire Breaks Out in Mine While Men Are at Work and Few Escape. Mexico City, May 14.—According to a special dispatch which was received from the city of Torrence, Coahuila, | by the Associated Press at a late hour | last night, ninety lives were lost in a fire which occurred in the Cornethas shaft of the Ternera group of mines in the town of Velandena, state of Du- rango. The fire started early Friday night in an abandoned shaft. At the time there were 107 men working in | another part of the mine, and from what can be learned at this time but seventeen of them escaped. Few Escaped. Thirty-five bodies have been recov- ered, according to the latest reports received from the scene of the disas- ter, but as the fire is still raging it is | feared that few others imprisoned will be found. The origin of the fire is sup- posed to have been due to the care- lessness of a miner who was smoking a cigarette in an abandoned drift through which he was passing. The shaft in which the fire is still raging and is said to be beyond con- trol, is one of a group of the largest copper producers in the northern sec- tion of Mexico. Owing to the remoteness of the re- gion it has been difficult to receive de- tails of the catastrophe. STREET CARS RUN IN FRISCO. Governor’s Firm Stand Has Sobering Effect on Trouble Makers. San Francisco, May 14.—Fifty street cars were operated yesterday from 10 o’clock in the morning until 5 o’clock |in the evening over two of the twenty- |odd lines composing the United Rail- \roads system. For the first time since the commencement of the strike last Sunday cars were run yesterday to the ferries. About 20,000 passengers, a majority of them women, patronized the service. j There was very little disorder dur- ing the day in comparison with the five days previous. Thousands of per- sons evidently regarded the published junctions and private warnings and remained indoors, for the Sunday crowds were much smaller than usual. | Unquestionably the firm stand taken by Gov. Gillette when he announced that he would judge the San Francisco situation by the acts of the people and would not hesitate a moment to call out the militia if rioting should be continued had a sobering effect on the |hundreds of trouble makers whose | acts of violence made the history of | the past week a disgraceful and | bloody occasion.
