Miss Walsh's voice has become little

fact, if true, does not mar her portrayal

of the audience even after the curtain is

The resolutions are as follows:
BE it resolved, That this committee
give its emphatic endorsement to the
protest Of the American association of
China against the pending RusSo-Chi-

at the integrity of the Chinese empire

Resolved. That an immediate and
vigorous protest on the part of the gov

the establishment of a Russian protec-
torate over AIanchuria is the more nee
essary because if allowed now to pass

FOOD AND WISDOM.
Brain Workers Learn the Secret.

Ambitious students who study hard
and try their best to gain an education,
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 excessive
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 a food especially intended to
nerve centers throughout the body. This
food is known as Grape-Nuts.
A student, Rosa Scott, of Kenoma, Mo,
says. II was very ambitious to succeed
at school, and started under favorable
circumstances with good health and
used what is generally supposed to be
good, substantial articles Of food, such
as meat, vegetables. etc.
I worked hard and soon became trou-
bled with distress in my stomach I
noticed a confusion of thought and in
ability to memorize. / found it almost
impossible to study in the condition /
was in, and resorted to medicine, but
that did not relieve me of my suffering,
and seemed to grow worse. was in
despair until one day a friend, who had
passed through a similar experience,
told me to stop using medicine, and in
place of ordinary food use Grape-Nuts
Food He said it contained certain ele-
ments necessary to rebuild the worn out
tissues Of both body and brain, and pos
itively assured me that if 7 would use
the food, I would get well and be able
to go on with my work.
1t seemed too good to be true, and at
with an egg for breakfast For the mid
day meal I used four heaping teaspoon
fuls with some cream or milk and Moth
ing else Then for the evening meal
used Grape-Nuts and fruit. Right from
the beginning. my sufferinGs We're not
so great, and gradually my strength re-
turned, and I could see that my brain
was regaining its forr-sar activity
These favorable symptoms continued
until was entirely relieved from my
trouble, and am now stronger than I
ever was before. Can study ten or
twelve hours a day with results that I
feel are a credit to myself
I would like to have students all over
the world know of the powerful r,roDer-
ties contained in Grape Nuts Food as
compared with any ordinary diet"
This sort Of experience teaches plain-
ly the fact that there is everything in
the selection of food if one desires to
work hard and make success in this
world. There is probably no food known
that is as perfect for the rebuilding OF
the body and brain as Grape-Nuts.
