MIND AND FOOD.


Kind of Food That Effects the Mind.
"One Of the most remarkable effects
of the food Grape-Nuts is the effect on
tie mind; it makes you feel buoyant,
hopeful, and cheerful, says Alice l..
Glunt, of 1922 Broad street, Altoona,
Pa. She continues: las result OF pro-
longed mental work, | was stricken
with paralysis of the right side about
two years and a half ago. For about
two years | was treated constantly with
powerful drugs to stimulate the nerve
eenters, with only partial success. 4
About six months ago, ! was threat
ened with nervous prostration again,
When a friend advised me to eat Grape
concerning any beneficial results, but
finding the food verv palatable,
bought package after package, and
since beginning the use o. Grape-Nuts
have taken no, medicine or nerve ton
les OF any kind, and the effect of this
perfect food on my health is something
gery remarkable. All headaches, in
iomnia, and disagreeable cough, and
NJ symptoms Of paralysis have disap-
peared.
Il am satisfied that all the ills that I
have suffered were due to the fact that
| lived just as thousands of others Who
think they are well fed, but are in 4
state of semi-starvatioH, owing to the
imperfect assimilation Of food. The
nerve centers cannot be properly nour-
ished and rebuilt except by good food
and food that can be digested and as
similated Grape-Nuts food is the most
perfect food | have ever seen, and I
know of its value from practical re-
suits"
This is another evidence of the fact
that Grape-Nuts food contains the phos-
plate of potash which unites with al
bulnen to make the gray matter in the
nerve centers and brain. Any brain
worker who values health, strength and
vigors should pay need to the charac-
ter of the food he uses.

embraces some really excellent dra-
matte talent, but it is as a musical at
traction that it excels. Black Patti
(Ciserretta jones' merits the distinc-
ton of being termed "the greatest
singer of her race" Her voice is mar
velous. The audience rendered her an
ovation, and she bowed repeatedly, but
her delighted listeners were insistent
and she was compelled to respond to
frequent encores. Her rendition OF My
Old Kentucky Home" was a veritabe
gem. In the operate kaleidoscope,
which was the concluding number upon
the programme, the audience demanded
a repetition of the chorus from Holy
City" three times. 1t is an attraction
which lovers of high class music can
hardly afford to miss Matinee and
night performances will be given to-
day.
