I began rather spar ingly, until I acquired such a liking for It that for tho last threo months I havo depended upon It almost en tirely for my dipt, entlng nothing else whatever, but Grape-Nuts for break fast and supper, and I bellevo I could eat It for dinner with fruit and bo sat isfied without other food, and feel much better tnd havo more strength to do my housework. "When I began the uso of Grape Nuts I was thin and weak, my muscles wcro so soft that I was not ablo to do any work. I weighed only 108 pounds. Nothing that I ate did me any good. I was going down hill rapidly, was nervous and miserable, with no ambi tion for anything. My condition Im proved rapidly after I began to eat Grape-Nuts food. It made mo feel Uko a new woman; my muscles got solid, my figure 'rounded out, my weight increased to 126 pounds in a few weeks, my nerves grew Bteady and ray mind better and clearer.

RUSSIAN ARMYjS IH RETREAT The Movement Is Now Toward Harbin The Muscovites Have Been Slight ly Reinforced, but There Is Little Hope of Their Escape. TOKIO Tho Jnpaneso occupied TIo Pass at midnight, March 10. Details of tho occupation hnvo not yet been re ceived at Imperial army headquarters. An official bulletin reports the action and that tho Jnpanese nro In hot pur suit of tho retreating Russians, but it does not mention any particulars nbout tho fight Ttie Japanese captured mnny prison erB nt TIo Pass and tho Russians de stroyed vast stores. Gonoral Kuuropatkln nnd the rem nants of tho army which was defeated by tho Japanese on the Shakhe nnd Hun rivers, and again around Muk don nnd TIo Pnss, nro now in tho mountains n few miles north of tho southern entrance of tho Pass trying to shnke off their pursuers, who appar ently nro not going to repeat the mis take of Lino Yniig and allow tho Rus sian army to escape. Kouropalkln has boon reinforced by the garrisons of Tlollng nnd other northern towns nnd a few new troops who were on their wny from Hiisshi whon the battle of Mukden began. . But oven with these thero Is littlo hope for lilm. True, bo has some thirty or forty miles of hilly country extend ing from TIo Pass to Fonghtntslon. which might enable him to hold off tho enemy for n time, but once out of tho hills ho has before him nearly 300 miles of flnt, open country and Innum erable rivers nnd strenms to cross. This Is whnt is termed tho great val ley of the Simgnrl, but is In fact an immense plain, bounded on the enst by high mountains and extending lorthwnrd Into Siberia nnd westward Into Mongolia. Ivirln, east of the rail way nnd Ilnrbin, the most northerly point on the railway where it branches 3ft to Vladivostok eastward and to Siberia westward, nro the centers of, this wonderfully rich country, resem bling In many respects tho northwest territories of Canada. From Tie Pass tho railway runs over a hill known as tho Divide of Kalyan, twenty miles, then striking Into a valley, on either sldo of which rise high hills, emerges onto tho plain just northeast of tne Important Chlneso city of Fenghuat slen. From there to Harbin hardly a hill can be seen from tho railway train, tho lino running almost straight, oxcopt whero nn occasional curve Is necessary to reach n city or favorable crossing of a river. Beside tho rail way there Is a splendid wagon road from TIo Pass to Knlyan, where it branches, ono branch muking a detour to tho westward, skirting tho moun tains nnd running almost direct to ; Harbin; tho other branch passes through tho mountains to Klrln, from which cente'r thero aro many roads, Tho dlstanco from Tie Pass to Har bin Is very littlo less thnn 300 miles, nnd except for tho first few miles every ncro Is under cultivation or sup porting herds of cattle, sheep and horses. So far ns tho commissariat is concerned tho Russians need have no fear. Hardly a pound of last yeqr's crop of beans, millet or wheat left tho country, tho Russians' buying It all, but storing it in stations along tho railway, Immense shelters being erect ed for Its reception. They nlso pur chased nil tho cattle nnd horses and havo Cossacks herding them. FORCING THE ISSUE. Trouble With 'Venezuela Coming to a Head. WASHINGTON France has official ly informed the United States of tho action of tho Venezuelan government against tho French Cable company, which sho regards as high-handed and unwnrranted. Whllo Insisting that di plomatic means will bo exhausted in an effort to relievo tho situation, it Is declared that President Castro is rapidly exhausting French patience nnd thereby forcing Franco toward the limit of dlplomncy. France has Invited tho attention' of tho American government to tho Ven ezuelan situation because of Its Inter est In all American affairs and In or der that It may obtain tho probable course which this government will take against Venezueln, It Is tho wish ot tho French government to aim ugnlnst parallel linos as far as prac ti cable. Theso developments In tho Vene zuelan situation nre regnrded as the preliminary step toward tho relief of tho situation In Caracas which Europe as well as tho United States has for some tlmo rogarded with dissatisfac tion.

It Is Said Both Belligerents Want It. WASHINGTON Whon tho czar rails tho war council Tuesday ho wilt be nblo to Inform his ministers that tho Jnpaneso will welcomo peaco on reasonable terras nnd will promptly namo its conditions provided It re ceives trustworthy assurances that they will be seriously considered. This, the emperor hns learned from friendly chancellories in Europe, ns welt as tho general terms acceptable to .'apan. These, It Is said. Include the reten tion by Jnpnn of Port Arthur, n Jap anese protectorate over Korea and nn Indemnity. From n high official tho Associated Pros? hears that Russia has recalled Its second Pacific squadron. An nttnche of a Russian embassy In Europe i quoted expressing the belief thnt Kouropaikln's recent de feat wilt foroe Russia to n3k for peace. Briefly, these were tho reports cur rent In the. diplomatic corps', and ns a rosult of this important information official Washington believes thnt Rus sia and Jnpnn aro on tho verge of peace If It be true that the second Pacific squadron has been recalled even the most optimistic of Russia's friends admit that this is a strong in dication thnt Oynmu's mighty blow has made for peace. Count Cassial, tho Russian nnibas sador, is tho notnhlo exception in the group of foreign envoys here. "How ever generous tho torms which Jnpnn might offer," the ambassador said, VRusBlnn prestige is not among them That is one thing for which tho war will bo fought to tho end. Victory for tho Russian nrms will nlono make for peace. If not at Tip Pass, then nt Harbin. Russia will assemble anothet army mightier than before and with thnt army It will settle tho Issue. It mny be six months, n year, or per Imps two years. Time will bo no con siderntlon." At the Japanese leuntlon It Is do clnred thnt St., Petersburg and not Toklo is the cnpitol from which the world must hope for peace proposals Mr. Tnknhlra, the Japanese minister said in tho most emphatic manner that Jnpnn had not directly proposed peace. Uo did not deny that neutral powers, through their envoys from time to time, had sounded Japan ae to tho terms on which it would nccept peaco, but these, ho said, necessarily changed with the progress of hostlt Itlos, the Intimation being that Russlo could havo obtained better terms after tho fall of Port Arthur than after the capturo of Mukden. If tho Jnpaneso government were assured that peaco proposals would be considered by Russia thero Is author Ity for the statement thnt Japan would respond Immediately, But It will In sist that these assurances shall he of the most positive character. Japan's experience in the negotlntlons pro ceding tho war, It Is- said, will make it exceedingly cautious In the future It will Insist that such assurances shall como from the Russian government and not from this or that party or this or that friend of the emperor. CUTS OFF SINEWS OF WAR French Bankers Practically Refuse to Loan Money to Russia. LONDON The revolt of tho French bankers is considered by the London newspapers as the most hopeful and Important news of the day, promis ing on early conclusion of peace be tween Russia nnd Japan. Apparently the proposed loan has not been ab solutely refused, hut only "postponed." This, however, Is regarded as being tantamount to a refusal, and Is ex pected to speak louder to tho Rus sian war party even, than Koiiropat kin's reverse at Mukden. It is regard ed that by the death of M. Germain, the lnte governor of tho Credit Lyonnals, Russia lost Its strongest financial friend In France, and that had he been nllve no difficulty would hnve been experienced. With tho American and English markets closed to it, It is thought that Russia enn only turn "to Germany, which is not likely to bo much more responsive than France, and the onlynlternatlvo would seem to bo to make peace.

What a Mercer County (Ohio) Farmer Received from One Year's Crop. Extracts from an interesting letter from P. H. Rynhard, of Starbuck, Manitoba, Canndn, gives an excellent Idea of the prosperity of those who have gone from tho United States to Canada. He says: "I bought, August, 1903, 480 acres of land, paying $12,000 for it. Wo threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat, and between 1,200 and 1,300 bushels of oats and barley from 200 acres. But part of the wheat went down before tilling and was not harvested except for hay. Tho crop was worth at threshing time, ?3,000. Besides 120 acres laying Idle except a timothy meadow, which is not Included in this estimate. Counting tho valuo of the product and tho increase of valuo of land will pay mo moro than 25 per cent on tho Investment. Two broth ers In the same neighborhood bought 1G0 acres each six years ago. They havo not done a singlo thing to this land except to fence it and break and cultivate about one-half of It. Har vested last year 28 bushels wheat per acre. This year 27 bushels per acre. They can get any day $25 per acre, These aro only a few of many hun dreds of such chances. It looks like boasting, but truth Is Justifiable and tho world ought to know it, especial ly tho home-seeker. I know of qulto a few farmers that havo made for tunes In from 10 to 20 years, retired with from $20,000 to $100,000. Writing concerning another district In tho Canadian West, S. L.
