GOOD BREAKFASTS.
Start the Day Right.

ce0At Sho 10y ItBhNf
The breakfast is perhaps the most
important meal of the day. Euro
peans usually eat a very light break.
fast. Many Americans have stomach
trouble because they eat too much, OF
food of not the right sort for the
morning meal. An ideal breakfast is
baked apple or some other fruit, a
dish of Grape Nuts Food with little
cream, and a cup of Postum Food
Coffee.
Leave off all meat, hot biscuits,
etc. Grape-Nuts and Postum both
furnish the phosphate and potash, to-
gether with other food elements that
go to make up brain and nerve CEN
ters as well as muscle and tissue. and
both can be digested by the stomach
OF an infant.
1t is the part of wisdom nowadays
to use food especially selected for
nourishment and that can be easily
digested. Ten days trial OF this
breakfast and you will feel as though
you had cleaned house."
The exhilaration OF bounding health
is worth a hundred times the small
outlay of time and care in arranging
such breakfast.
Mrs. Riley, 125 Chestnut street,
Camden, N. j., says she formerly
breakfasted on chops. hot biscuits
and coffee. latter such q meal l
would have severe pains and they
would last sometimes far into the
night" She finally determined on q
change in her diet and had for break
fast only Grape Nuts Food and lit
tie cream with Postum Food Coffee.
She says: I'm a very few days the in
testinal trouble all disappeared. l

lost the irritability and nervousness,
aud life takes on new aspect.
''When L feel little exhausted in
the day simply drop everything and
stir spoonful of Grape Nuts in a little
cream or hot milk, and in ten minutes
l have regained my vigor and fresh-
ness"
Grape-Nuts food is best when
served Just as it comes from the
package. without any cooking what
ever. The food has already been
cooked ten or twelve hours in the
process of manufacturing it. When
made up into buildings, pies and
other deserts it does not hurt it to be
cooked again, but when served sim
ply as a breakfast food ii should
never be cooked. On the contrary.
Postum Coffee absolutely must be
boiled Is or 20 minutes before the
food value and flavor can be brought

vide that the choice rests with the
captain of the home team, but it is
not always the case with all managers
that they take first inning at bat.
When asked about his reason for
doing SO, Manager Herman said;
There are several reasons, but the
principal one is that always like for
my fellows to get the first crack at the
ball, as it gives us several advant-
ages. The ball is new and the batter
can see it better than after it has
rolled in the dirt for an inning. The
pitcher does not have as good control
of a new ball as after it becomes a
little dirty. If we get a couple Of
good hits and several runs it rather
disheartens the opposing team"
President Sexton was informed to-
day that the smallpox quarantine had
been extended in Cedar Rapids. This
bars the Cedar Rapids club from being
at home on the Fourth of July. Presi-
dent Sexton has, therefore. trans
ferred the Cedar Rapids game to
Rockford and assigned Rock Islaud to
Davenport for that day.

that the bright people in this church
with whom the young ministers come
in contact prepare them for the wider
field to which they soon go. Z seems
to be true that this church is never
so happy as when it has a young min

some afterward eminent men havr
come 10 Milan in that way.
DIR. s. T. Wilson came frpm the

Rock Island people thought him toe

church Gold schooD. afterwards

w. w. Moorehead also came f;om the
east in 1862. and was much beloved
by his people. He remained fer seven
years aud then was called to the
church at Greensburgh. Pa. where he
served the remainder of his life. The
recent call of Rev. IL. w. Reherd to
Detroit. Mich, after nearly four years
psstorate, causes the people to feel
that they are finishing of most excel

a Native OF Missouri.
Mr.. Humphreys was born in Belle
TO ataine, st. Louis county, Missouri,
Oct. II, 1870. His early life was
spent upon farm. At the age of 10
he entered Drury academy, atSpring
field. Mo-. where he spent four years.
He taught for one year and then
entered Drury college, wherehe spent
four years more, grad uating in 1898.
He took his theological course at Me-
Cormick seminary, Chicago. entering
in the fall of 1928. and was graduated
from there May 2. 1901. Nj. Hum
phreys preached two summers at
Crocker, Mo-, while in college, and
two summers at Carl junction, Mo-,
while in the seminary, and lat sum-
mer at Walkerton, Ind. When Mr..
Humphreys came to Milan 20 take
charge of the church there he Drought
with him what is most needfil to all
men. especially ministers-a vife-to
whom he was married last August.
An Accomplished HeIpmeet.
Mrs. Humphreys was Miss Laura
A. Schwab. Her father camein early
life to this country from Switzerland.
Like the great DIR. Witherspton, "he
became an American from themoment
he landed" and when the cifil strife
began he became patriot as well as
citizen. He was wounded at the
battle of Gettysburg. Miss Laura
took 3-years' course in the Column
bia School of Oratory, Chicago.
When she began teaching expression
and physical culture at DrurJ college
it was small indeed, but when che
left it. after six years, she was at the
head of regular course from which
classes are graduated each year, and
hundreds of students have been un-
der her tutelage. Mrs. Humphreys
has now taken a class of one, but she
brings the same enthusiasm into her
work as one could wish to see, and it
is believed that she will do much in
her new role for the young in her
husbands congregation.
