There's my friend, Walter Gratebar.
Exemplary man, capable and efficient
under ordinary conditions, but lost if he
departs from his daily routine. His wife
Is just like him, methodical i'm every

on the same day each week. There is a
breakfast bill Of fare for each day in the
week, and it never varies. Mr.. Gratebar
doesn't remember the time, for instance,
when they didn't nave picked up Goldfish
on Tuesdays.

that his sense Of taste now runs in waves,
which recur with absolute regularity.

picked up Goldfish, for that's his codfsh
morning, and his taste is set for goldfish.
AS a matter of fact, he ate smoked beef
for breakfast last Tuesday morning and
didn't know it until night. It seemed to
him that there was something wrong
about that breakfast, but he didn't make
out what it was.
HE went to his business at the usual
time and began his work in the usual
way, but everything went wrong. When
noon came he went to the same restaurant
that he had always been to, stood in the
same place at the lunch counter, ate the
same lunch that he had eaten for years,
and was back at work in twenty min
utes, as usual, but nothing seemed to
go right, and as the afternoon wore on
There was added to his other woes a
feeling of physical discomfort. His
work dragged and he was late home.

Goldfish for breakfast; you had smoked
beef
"'Why, how's that he said, with a
calm face, but with a lighter heart, for
it was a relief to him to know what was
