The objections to organized labor at
the present time are based mainly on
incidents that happened. in the past,
and the prejudice then aroused has
obscured the perceptions of unfair en-

fail to realize the broader thought and
more liberal tendencies which are in
fiuencing all organized labor to-day.
However, most of their arguments have
been met and overcome, and they are

DR.. TALKS OF FOOD.
Pres. of Board of Health.

What shall eat? is the daily in
curry the physician is met with l do
not hesitate to say that in my judg-
ment, a large percentage OF disease is
caused by poorly selected and improp-
erly prepared food. My personal ex-
perience with the fully cooked food,
known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to
speak freely of its merits.
From overwork. l suffered several
years with malnutrition, palpitation
of the heart, and loss of sleep. Last
summer | was led to experiment per-
sonally with the new food, which l
used in conjunction with good rich
cows milk. In short time after l
commenced its use, the disagreeable
symptoms disappeared, my hearts &C.
ton became steady and normal, the
functions of the stomach were properly
carried out and | again slept as sound
ly and as we'll as in my youth.
Il look upon Grape-Nuts as a per-
feet food, and no one can gainsay but
that it has most prominent place in
rational scientific system of feeding.
Any one who uses this food will soon
be convinced of the soundness of the
principle upon which it is manufacture
cd and may thereby know the facts as
to it's true worth" w. B. Conway,
