at hand, took Mies Craig in his arms
and fought his way through the flames
to a small veranda, where both were
brought to the pavement by firemen.
The engagement was announced about
a year after the fire.

WU SAYS GOODBYE
New York, Nov. 24. Former Chinese
Minister Wu Ting Fang has made pub
lic, says a World dispatch from San
Francisco, the following farewell to
the American people:
"People: It is nearly six years ago
since I came here, and during my resi
dence in America I have found it very
pleasant. On the whole, I have been
received in a very kind and courteous
way by the American .people, the high
est officials and all.
"Before leaving this hospitable shore
I want to express my graceful appre
ciation of the uniform kindness and
courtesy shown to me by all classes of
people I have come in contact with. I
shall carry with me very pleasant re
membrances of my stay. I am glad
to notice that the friendly relations be
tween this country and mine have been
always cordial, and, within the last few
years, closer than before, and I hope
this state of things will long continue.
"As to the future of China politically
and commercially, I will say I have
been away from my own country, near
ly six years. " Although people say that
it is not -progressing but is standing
still, when I go back I will see many
things that are new to me. China is
progressing, It being such a large coun
try, with such a large population and
with people educated to and ibrought up
in such a conservative way. You can
not, although the Idea of reform is tak
ing foot, expect it to make a sudden
and radical change as you might think
possible in a smaller country; but, nev
ertheless, China has made reasonable
reforms in many ways within the last
few years. Her commerce will be de
veloped and will be increased with that
of this country. This Pacific coast, in
particular, would reap a large harvest
by having a larger trade with China."

CARNEGIE IS SIXTY-FIVE
New YTork, Nov. 25. It is just sixty-
five years today since a baby boy des
tined to become world famous as a
philanthropist first saw the light of day
in the -little town of Dumferline, Scot
land. The boy was Andrew Carnegie.
His parents brought him to this coun
try while he was still a mere child and
at ten years of age he began his career
in the blue uniform of a district mes
senger boy in Pittsburg, a city which
has since benefited incalculably through
his benefactions.
In most of his biographies the date of
Mr. Carnegie's birth is given as 1835,
which would make him sixty-seven
years old today, but Mr. Carnegie him
self is authority for the assertion that
he is but sixty-five. As a matter of
fact the lord of Skibo is as sensitive re
garding his age as he is concerning the
subject of death. Those most intimate
ly acquainted with him aver that the
mention of either subject in his pres
ence is offensive to him. However, true
this may be a number of his friends
ana business associates of this city
made bold today to cable their con
gratulations on the occasion of his
birthday. Mr. Carnegie is now in Lon
don recovering from a slight illness.
Within a fortnight he is expected to
return here and take up his residence
for the winter in his magnificent new
iiuine a.t tne corner or .mtth avenue
and West 81st street.
CASH paid for all second hand clothes
at No. 57 Flint street.

Knew the Food to Study on
When a young lady going away
school carries food away with her
place of a box of candy, there must be
some reason.
A woman in Milton Mills, N. H
says: Having a large family, I had
imucn care ana worry and was never
very strong and healthy, tout managed
to keep fairly well until the last few
years. Each summer lately found me
worn out and weak at is close, so that
I had to spend a week or two in bed
My stomach always fails me when :
am over-tired, the food refusing to as
similate, until finally my stomach be
comes so weak that the mere standing
on my feet causes me to retch so viol
ently that I have often vpmited blood.
1 had seen Grage-Nuts food adver
tised and fancied it was like other cer
eais, many of which I had tried and
discarded. When my usual attack
came on last August, I was in despair
for nothing would stay on my stomach
except a little hot milk.
I decided to try Grape-Nuts and sent
for a package. I ate a little and lay
back after eating without experiencing
any of the sickly feelings that usually
followed any movement in bed, and fell
into a refreshing sleep. I continued
using the food and day by day gained
rapidly in strength until now I am en
tirely well and strong and my stomach
does not bother me any more.
Grape-Nuts is what I have often
wished for something that I can eat
for breakfast and feel that I am sat
isfied. After eating a dish of Grape
Nuts with a little cream, I can work
all the morning and forget I have a
stomach.
The children like it so well that it is
hard to keep them in bounds as to the
quantity that should be eaten. My eld
est girl actually carried off a package
when she returned to school at
with as much elation as if it had been
a box of the choicest bon-bons." Name
