Discussed below.

The question of obtaining a high
grade food at a moderate price is of
interest to every housekeeper and pro-
WIDER.
Some food is so bulky that even at a
very low price per pound the actual
| food value is so little that it is really
Expensive; on the other hand there
are concentrated foods, like, for in
| stance, the famous breakfast food
known as ''Grape-Nuts, that sell at
ID cents per pound, but yield in food
units so much value that but little of
the food should be used at a time, and
in reality, when properly used, the
expense is about one cent per meal.
1t is common mistake to use too
much of the food Grape-Nuts. Its
taste is crisp, with the delicate sweet
flavor of grape sugar. and one is inclin-
ed to eat double the proper quantity.
A lady writes from Indianapolis, Mrs.
A. l.. Wilson: We have been using
your Grape Nuts now for two or three
| weeks. | cannot tell your how much
| find it has benefited me. NV hus-
| band is physician and he not only
uses it at each meal, but likes it at
| bedtime.n
families might be impressed with the
cost, but after ali, good food. which
keeps the family in prime condition of
health, at moderate cost, is very
much more profitable, so far ar dol
lers and cents are concerned, than to
make use of low-grade, bulky foods
and from time to time call in a ply
stefan to help out.
The use of "GrapeNuts' in reason
| able quantity costs l cent per meal,
and the food stands without an equal
in point of nutrition and value in
building up the nerve centers and it's
sue of the body. The crisp, delicate,
sweet taste comes from the grape su-
gar which is produced by transforma-
| ton of the starch of the cereals, and
this grape sugar is presented to the
system, ready for immediate assimi-
lation. Grape-Nuts are sold by all
| first-class grocers and made by the
Postum company at their factories in

HARRY HARRIS IN DEMAND.

Bantam Receives Many Offers to Meet

excellent showing against former Ban

his manager. Jack Leonard, has re-
ceived any number of offers for the
boy to meet good men, but in most
cases the weight named is too high
Leonard does notnsee why Harris
should give away any weight to good
men, as he can get enough matches in
his own class. Harris is willing to
meet any of the boys within few
pounds of his weight, but wants to
remain as close to his own class as
possible.

AFTER HIS FORTUNE.
Messenger, Hunted for Two Weeks,
EvadCs Indian Pursuers ana
Brings Back the Money.

There died in Kansas City, Kan, the
other day" says the Kansas City Jour
nal, "a quiet, unobtrusiye, modest, and
never boastful citizen. lie came from
a Pennsylvania regiment in 1861, and
he became a messenger for the Holli-
day Express company, running from
Leayenworth to Santa Te. w. IL.
Bridgens, the mes senger referred TO,
on one Of his tripshad 500 coo in green
backs strapped about his person and
secreted in his clothes. There was no
one but him and the driver in charge Of
the coach, and for days they proceeded
along their lonesome journey without
seeing a human face. When yet many
miles from Santa Fe they were over
taken by a bowling band of Indians
and a fierce battle was fought, Bird
gems and his companion exhausted
their ammunition and continued the
fight with their knives. Finally they
Succeeded in unloosing their horses
from the stage, and. quickly mounting
them, fled through the timber. The
savages gave chase and succeeded in
separating the two men, but did not
capture either Of them. Mr. Bridgens
still retained his treasure, but he lost
his way among the crags and canyons,
and it was more than two weeks before
he found his way to the house of a
white man, During all this time he
subsisted entirely upon berries and
herbs. His long absence caused his en-
ployers to believe that he had been
robbed and killed by the Indians, and
before his return they had made good
the money they had given up as lost.
When Mr.. Bridgens returned with his
precious burden still intact they were
amazed, and so grateful were they that
they presented their young agent with
a handsome token Of their spprecia-
ton"
