"I have been using Grape-Nuts for

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. My
friends tell mo thoy haven't seen me
look so woll for years.

SLAVS IN FLIGHT
JAPANESE IN FULL CONTROL OF
TIE PA88.
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. Dr. Harper Goes to Lakewood.

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.

A 480-ACRE FARM YIELDS
25 PER CENT PROFIT IN A YEAR.
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. Short
says:
"Dear Sir I havo to inform you
that I have Just returned from tho
Carrot River Country in Saskatche
wan, whero I located land of tho very
finest black vegetable loam, which I
am proud of, and will move in the
spring. Farmers aro still plowing
there. A mild climate and beautiful
country to behold. Cattle are fat and
running outside. Wood and water
good. Saw oats weighing 42 pounds
to bushel. Potatoes large and well
ripened; also 'wheat that brought
thero 82 cents. The country exceed
ed my expectations. Saw oats In
