A Great Convenience. for Housek.epe

A Great Convenience for Housekeepers.
Two young ladies in a certain city are
employed downtown and rent small
flat, where they do light housekeeping.
Frequently they are invited out even
dngs. and the subject of the evening
meal is puzzler.
Of late they have solved the problem
by keeping some nice rich milk or
cream in the ice box and a package OF
dry. crisp Grape-Nuts near by.
In thirty seconds the meal IS ready,
and it is a most fascinating meal, too,
for the creamy taste blends with the
peculiar delicate sweet of the grape
sugar in the Grape Nuts. producing a
er-to-be-forgotten flavor The sus-
tanning power of the food IS sufficient
to keep one well nourished even when
small amount is used

News this morning was meagre. London
was a purchaser of American securities

heavy offerings of bonds to the Treasury
