 While l was clerking in a grocery store it was difficult to resist the temp tation to eat little of this and that; a bit of candy some fruit or crackers, and one thing and another. After about a year I had serious stomach trouble and had run down to 9l pounds, was pale and sallow and poor as snake. l could sleep but little at night and my distress was terrible
 Finally I was compelled to give up my position and take treatment for my health. l heard of Grape Nuts Break fast Food and began to use it regular ly l soon began to recover both health and strength until at the end of about three months steady use l was so fat and well that I was weighed and found l weighed 160 pounds, which was gain of 69 pounds in that time.

| Following is the statement which was given out by Attorney General Knox:
 Within a very short time a bill will be filed by the United States to test the 1 legality of the merger of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern railway systems through the instrumentality of the Northern Securities company.
 Some time ago the president re- quested an opinion as to the legality of this merger and I have recently given him one, to the effect that, in my judg- ment, it violates the provisions of the sherman act of 1890; ,Whereupon he di- rected that suitable action should be taken to have the question judcially determined.
 "A bill in equity is now in course of preparation which will be filed within very short item and which will ask that the merger, effected through the exchange of the Northern Securities company for shares of the two railroad companies. be dissolved, and such shares ordered re-exchanged to restore the stocks of the two railroad compa- nies to their original holders
 '"rhe two railroad companies, the Northern Securities company, J. Pier pont Morgan and James J. Hill. and their associates, stockholders in the two companies, will be the defendants in the bill. The district in which the will be instituted has not yet been determined Most likely it will be in Minnesota"
