NOCTURNAL ANIMALS.

Nearly all the characteristic habits OF
our common domestic animals may be
traced back to their early ancestors who
roamed in a wild state. Tho ancestors OF
the domestic cattle lived chiefly in the
woods, while those OF the horse and
sheep lived on plains and mountains.
Hence. the cow Is more OF a nocturnal
animal than horse or sheep, and prob
ably sees better in the dark. DIR. Louis
Robinson points out In the October num-
Der OF Pearsons Magazine that II you

A piece Of bread that is dry, white
and very light In weight seems to the
thoughtful person like so much foam or

duct.

bread or the interior of a biscuit be-

the result, with an appearance Of solid
gastric juices Of the stomach can dis
solve such wad.
II is small wonder that such food
creates havoc IN the way OF fermenta-
ton and gas, and consequent disorder.
Many dyspeptics win find great help
by leaving OF the ordinary bread en-
tirely, and using In It's place Grape
Nuts, In which the starchy and nitro
genous substances have been thorough
~ and perfectly cooked Mt the factory
before being sent out.
There IS no possibility Of the food as
suminE the form OF wnds OF dough. On
the contrary, the food is already predl-
gested, the starch OF the grains has been
changed into grape sugar in the process
OF manufacture and passes quickly and
directly into circulation.
Grape-Nuts furnish the elements
needed by the system to rebuild, par
ticularly the soft gray matter in the
brain and throughout the nerve centers
In the body. This statement will be
verified by use Of the new food. It ie
delicious enough to recommend itself
upon trial.
