FOOD AND WISDOM


Ambitious students who study hard and
try their best to gain an education fire.
quently 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 excessive brain
work.
The average student does not know how
10 select the right kind of food, but a food
expert has been at work and has produced
a food especially intended to nourish and
rebuild the brain and the nerve centers
throughout the body. This food is known
as Grape-Nuts.

at school, and started under favorable
circumstances with good health, and used

The Smith Scheme in AbSevllls.

Soma one has sent to this Office

in Abhevills doing business for

for him in Abbsvills.
Mise Lou Vass, q NEST excel

yesterday that she made up . club
for Mr.. Smiths paper in August.
About the fourth of Ssptsnb Der,
she sent him S25 and 25 names of
Subscribers for his paper, and un-
dertook then to enter upon the
proff.rsd agency at $50 q month.
She wrote letters during the
month of Ssptsmbs bsr to the num-
ber of 105.
She says that she has repeatedly
made effort to get the promised
premium, she being allowsd choice
between . watch and q bicycle,
chose to take the watch, which
she had net received at noon yes

She further says that for tho
months work during September,
in sending letters or writing for
Mr. Smith she has received not

Mr.. George White says that he

He worked some; but afterw.rd

Tho State, Goth inst.

Tho State, Goth inst.
Next week is the last chance to
make payment of taxes for tho
ye,r 1901. There has been the
accustomed delay, and the city
and the county treasurers will be
rushed next week.
1t is very probable that the leg
islstur- will refuse to extend the
time for paying taxes, as 10 some
times done. Indeed it has be-
come the custom to extend this
time, but in doing 80 last Jan
nary The Legislature declared en-
phstically that it would sit down
on fuI thsr attempts, because when
the fi-cal year closes the county
and State officials books should be
closed and thus put an end to the
confusion incident to this peren-
nial extension of time within
which tho tax money ma be
paid
However as the agricultural in
terests of the State have suffered
very much this year, it is probable
that an effort will be made to get
the legislature to do as has been
done before. Some Of the county
,reasurers maintain that the farm
ers are not aided = whit by OK
tending the time, for they can pay
as we'll before the close of the
year as afterwards. In some
counties the farmers are the first
t" pay their taxes.
