Americas Citizens Render Assistance
at Bad Fire.

Sheriff Macarthur returned to Ameri-
Gus yesterday from White Springs,
Fla, where he and Mr.. Edgar j. Mil
Ter have been for. two weeks. Mr.. Nc
Arthur says that disastrous fire swept
the little town of White Springs at 1
o'clock Yesterday morning, destroying
the Grady Hotel and half dozen
stores. At one time it seemed the en-
tire town was doomed, as only bucket
brigade fought the fire. Many guests
of the hotel lost their effects. The fire
was probably of incendiary origin.

WHITE BREAD EATERS
Pin Their Faith to a Shadow

q was always a great white bread eater together with pastry, hot biscuit, and gen. erally used coffee. s7t#
 For some years there was no noticeable effects from this diet, but finally the in- evitable happened. My strength began to fail, mind grew dull and stupid I could eat but little food and could not digest that.
 "I had always been of happy and sun- ny disposition, but now became morose and miserable and very cranky to the oth- CT members of the family.
 "One morning new food called Grape Nuts appeared on the table. discovered 1t had a different taste than the usual health foods. There was a rich, pleasant flavor that seemed to satisfy me perfectly I became fascinated with Grape Nuts
 'I have now used this food three months my strength has increased greatly. my mind is now as clear as bell and I can go through the wear and tear of a day without feeling at all exhausted. I sleep perfectly and have gained upwards of 10 pounds in weight
 q have noticed that strong, healthy peo- pie enjoy Grape-Nuts as well as sick peo- pie, and it seems to furnish more nour- ishment than meat or any food have ever seen. You can publish this, but please omit my name.' -, Plattsmouth, Neb., P. o. Box SS1. This mans name will be given by the Postum Cereal Co.,, Ltd, at Battle Creek, Mich.
