The Pianola has become a centre of in

banks of the Dwinn river in northern

Frat for Brain Power.

According to n recent health report,
blanched almonds give the brain the
muscle food and the man who wishes
to keep his mental power up would
do well to include them in his daily
bill of fare. Juicy fruits develop more
or less the higher nerve or brain, and
are eaten by all men whose living de-
ponds on their observation-disclosures, APP
pies supply the brain with rest.
Prunes afford proof against nervous
ness, but IRE not muscle feeding. AT
the same time it has been proved that
fruits do not have the same effect on
everybody Some people have never
been able to eat apples without suf-
fering the agony of Indigestion; to
others strawberries are like poison.
