Taste is Frequently Valuable Guide
in Selecting Food.

A little childs taste is often a relia-
BILE guide to palatable and desirable

Nuts, the famous new food.
They eat it freely without addition
of sugar, for it has the peculiar, mild,
but satisfying sweet of grape-sugar,
and the natural taste either of child or
adult recognizes at once food that
will agree with and richly nourish the
system. Found at first class grocers.

years.
The senate will stand republicans
