FEED YOURSELF.
(Reasons Below.)
Try CRAPE-NUTS.
HOT WEATHER FOOD.

The selection of food for hot weather Is
m important question. We should avoid
an excess of fats, cut down the butter ra-
tion and indulge more freely In fruits
and food easy Of digestion. One meal
per day Is sufficient during hot weather.
An ideal breakfast Is e-Nuts. treat
ed with n little cream (which. by the
way, supplies the necessary fat in a very
digestible form) cup of Postum Cereal
Food Coffee, hot, or IL cold, it should
have little lemon juice squeezed in;
then some fruit. either cooked, or raw,
also perhaps two slices of entire wheat
bread with very thin spread Of butter,
or perhaps little Grapefruit Butter,
which is a different article than Grape
Nuts. A breakfast of this sort Is so per-
fectiy adapted to the wants Of the system
shat one goes through the heat Of the day
in comfort'as compared with the sweaty.
disagrseable condition Of one improperly
fed. Once put In practice, the plan will
never be abandoned during the hot days.
for the difference in one's personal COM
fort is too great to be easily forgotten.

Boston,: July ss.--Ths Dominion line
steamship New England. Capt. James
McAuley. steamed into port last evening,
breaking the record between Boston and
England by run OF six days, seven
hours and forty minutes.
Many Of the passengers ayerred that
they had seen the much talked OF sea SER
pent on the voyage. They certainly saw
a very strange animal, the like of which
no one on board from the captain tn
the mess boy had ever seen before.
Capt. McAulsy, when questioned about
the strange animal, said that his atten-
tion was called to an object of the star
board bow, which he first made out to be
ships boat or part of a derelict This
was at 7.45 last Tuesday. when the ship
was In latitude 45.sz N, longitude $500
W. He bore two points out Of his course
TO ascertain just what the object was, be-
lieving that 1t might be q wreck with
some poor sailors in need OF assistance.
The steamer approached to within about
forty feet OF the object, which still bad
the appearance of a submerged wreck.
Suddenly thin stream OF water was
thrown Ia the air and the animai-for 1t
proved to be one-moved of at right
angles to the ship, going through the wat.
or at nm eight-knot clip.
Capt. McAuley described the animal as
about a5 feet in length, with cariaated
back which projected about six feet out
Of water. Its head was visible for only
n few seconds when It raised it from the
water to gaze unconoernediy at the big
ship as she approached. The neck was
elongated and the head hooded.
The captain did not say it was q sea
serpent, but acknowledged 1t was the
strangest animal he had ever sseu In his
forty years. experience at sea.
The color of the animal was dark drab
on top with lighter shading near the
water. One Of the saloon passengers said
that he believed 1t was giant sea lizard.

STRUCK BY STRAY BULLET.
Fortunately No Serious Results VIII
Follow.

Norway, July 2s.-David Quincy. an
aged citizen of Norway, while in his field
berrying with the little son OF Mrs. Hat
tie Harmon, was shot In the right arm by
someone who was out hunting. 1t was
a small sized bullet or buck shot. Mr.
Quincy thought at first that the bullet
had gone into his arm, but the physician
who was summoned found 1t In the sleeve
of his wooden undershirt, where 1t had
lodged. The thickness OF the shirt pre-
vented 1t from going far into the arm. 1t
was a spent ball or otherwise 1t would
have done Mr.. Quincy serious injury. 1t
was a close call however.

form of catarrh might be appropriately
classed as summer catatrh; catarrh of
the upper bowels, diarrhma; OF the
lower bowels, dysentery. Acute ca
tarrh of the upper bowels in children il
called cholera infantum; in grown
people 1T is called cholera morbus. All
these are exactly alike in their pathol-
ogy. The remedy which will cure ca
tarrh of the stomach, will cure catarrh
of the bowels. Pe-ru-na will cure ca
tarrh wherever located. In summer
complaints IL has won well deserved
renown. Pe-ru-na will euro any case
OF diarrhoea, acute or chronic. Pe-ru-na
is an absolute specific for dysentery.
