eating this poison, and destroying the

 FOOD AND WiSDo M.
Brain Workers Learn the Secre

Ambitious students who study hard and try their best to gain an educa- tion frequently give down under the pressure and are greatly disappointed when they find they cannot carry out the cherished desire of their life.
 This result is nearly always caused by the lack of the right kind of food to make up the waste caused by ex- cessve brain work.
 The average student does not know how to select the right kind of food, but a food expert has been at work and has produced food especially in- tended to nourish and rebuild the brain and the nerve centers throughout body. This food is known as Grape-Nuts.
 A student, Rosa Scott, of Kenoma, Mo-, says: "I was very ambitious to succeed at school, and started under favorable circumstances with good health and used what is generally sup posed to be good, substantial articles of food, such as meat, vegetables, etc.
 q worked hard and soon became troubled with distress in my stomach I noticed a confusion of thought and inability to memorize. I found It al- most impossible to study in the condi- tion was in and resorted to medicine but that did not relieve me of my suf- fering. and seemed to grow worse I was in despair until one day a friend who had passed through a similar ex- perience told me to stop using medi- cine, and in place of ordinary food use Grape-Nuts Food. He said it contain ed certain elements necessary to re- build the worn-out tissues of both body and brain, and positively assured me that if I would use the food l would get well and be able to go on with my work.
 "It seemed too good to be true, and et once began the use of Grape-Nuts Food, with an egg for breakfast. @for the midday meal l used four heaplng teaspoonfuls with some cream or milk and nothing else. Then for the eve ming meal I used Grape-Nuts and fruit. Right from the beginning, my suffer- ines were not so great, and gradually my strength returned and I could see that my brain was regaining it's former activity.
 .vr,,ase fovorehle svurton's continued until I was entirely relieved from my trouble, and am now stronger than ever was before. Can study ten ol twelve hours a day with results that feel are a credit to myself.
 q would like to have students all over the world know of the poWertu bropertiess contained in Grape-Nuts Food as compared with any ordinary diet"
 This sort of experience teaches plaln- ly the fact that there is everything IT the selection of food if one desires to work hard and make success in this world. There is probably no fooc known that is as perfect for the re- building of the body and brain as Grape-Nuts.

soMrrHTNG ABOUT TROUT.

Winsted, March 14-April the law on trout is off. But the long, dry sea son and the condition the brooks have been in all winter, 1t Is feared by trout fishermen have spoiled the fun for this spring so far as brook trout fishing IS concerned. The low stage of water Tn the river, too, all winter, 1t is thought' has done much to kill the truot Still, in the larger streams there are spots where deep pools have afforded trout protection from the drought and the ice both, and in these holes doubtless good many fish have managed to Win ter. There is water enough now in all the brooks, and perhaps there will be trout enough to run from the rivers 10 the brooks when April i comes, so that trout fishermen, of whom there are nun dreds here, may be happy yet.
