BODY HEAT
Reduced 20 Degrees in Summer

Never eat heavy carbonaceous foods for the morning meal, for these foods should follow and not precede hard work.
 The best morning foundation is Grape-Nuts and cream, little fruit, a cup of Postum Food Coffee and pos sibly a couple of eggs prepared to suit the taste-this breakfast Is sufficient to satisfy the hardest worker, either of brain or muscle, until the monday meal
 Particularly is this true at the pres ent season of the year, when meat and other fatty foods increase the internal heat of the body and make the summer day still more lisagreeabe.
 Grape-Nuts come to you from the gro- cer ready to serve, having been fully cooked at the factory by food experts and this saving in time and exertion is appreciated by the housewife as well as the economy, for being concentrated food, four teaspoonfuls is sufficient for the cereal part of q meal for one person and costs only one cent.
 A booklet of excellent recipes is found in each package of Grape-Nuts from which many easy and delicious warm weather dishes can be made for lun cheon and supper that are not only nutritious but pleasing to the palate.
 A trial of the above selection of food for ten days will prove to anyone that health and vigor and active mind and a keen enjoyment of the pleasures of summer will take place of poor diges- ton, dull brain and that heavy draggy feeling caused N-- improper food during the hot weather.

PERILS OF A SAILING PARTY
YALE MEN ALMOST LOST ON THE
 SOUND MONDAY NIGHT.
Bartlett, 1909 E, Doubtless Saved Lives Were Out in the Cypress All Night and Nearly Run Down by Sound Steamer.

l Steamer.
 ] If Hartley Harris Bartlett. Yale 190
 S., had not been a thorough sailor, witt
 plenty of pluck it is very probable tha'
 the graduating exercises of the two sen
 for classes at Yale would have beer
 blighted by the deaths of four or five
 members of the university.
 | Young Bartlett, with four companions | e L. Watson, 1902 S., G. L. Watson
 1903 S., Walter l.. Douglass, 1903, and | William H. Taylor, 1903-hired one of | "Chappie" Whites boats, the Cypress Monday afternoon and put out for a sail, They went down the sound before good wind, which increased as the day ended, and when evening broke on the party they were far out in the sound, with only one in the boat in a
 condition to sail it. This one was Bart lett the others being victims of sea- sickness and were practically helpless to aid Bartlett in any way. AS a result
 Bartlett took full charge of the Cypress through one of the most exciting nights
 that have been passed on the water by
 Yale men in a long time
 Monday night was a cold and windy one on the water. The party had mis- calculated the distance from the shore, and darkness came over them before they knew it. They were almost half way across the sound, at point about half way between here and New Lon don, and as they had no charts Skipper Bartlett decided that the best thing to do was to stay on the water over night. The wind was blowing straight down the sound, so he beat back and forth from the Connecticut shore to the Long Island shore, but during those long tacks there were exciting times.
 MT. Bartlett, whose father was a cap tain on one of Admiral Dewey's battle ships at Manila during the Spanish war. told of his exciting experiences last night. He said that on one of his trips across the sound the Cypress was al- most run down by one of the steamers of the Fall River line. He said that they had no fog-horn or anything with which to make themselves heard or seen, and that it was only piece of luck that they were not cut down by the big steamer. As it was, the steam CT came within about two hundred feet of the little craft. The waves were running high all night, and several times MT. Bartlett thought the Cypress would be swamped. He finally manag- ed to keep the boat "on it's feet" and when daybreak came he was almost ex- hausted.
 The party sailed up the sound yester- day morning and tied up at. Whites boat house yesterday afternoon at two o'clock.

LONDON'S BACKWARDNESS.
Behind other Capitals in the Matter of
Government.

An Engishman who says that he
has been for many years travelling
abroad" unburdens himself to me on
his disappointment on returning to
London and finding il, instead Of tie
first city in the world, far behind ev-
cry other great capital in matters per-
tanning to the comfort Of its citizens.
He is shocked, says London Truth,
tc see scavenging carts collecting
refuse from houses at all hours Of the
day, and he wonders why such work
is not required to be performed at an
early hour in the morning. He does
not understand why coal carts, heavy
wagons and similar traffic are allowed
to crawl along main thoroughfares
during business hours, instead Of be-
ing compelled to proceed by side
streets.
He is aghast, like everybody else,
at the incessant blocking Of traffic
by the opening up Of roadways, and
asks why, when it is unavoidable, all
such work is not prosecuted continu-
ously, day and night, by relays until
it is completed. He is astonished to
find that he cannot obtain a postage
stamp in the largest of London rail
way stations, so that he has to 90 out
side in search of post office when he
wants to post letter in a hurry. He
is disgusted at the position of many
of the post offices, where there are
no proper conyeniences for writing.
He finds our milk and meat supplies
taking them all round-the worst
in any civilized town, and he gives
from personal experience a horrible
example Of the facilities for sending
diseased meat to market. He might
easily have heightened the list, We
all know of these things, and most of
us are continually groaning over one
or other Of them, but the recital may
help to remind the more lethargic-
minded how far we are as yet from be-
ing a truly progressive community,
notwithstanding "megaomaniac"
county council and a whole army of
chained and robed minor municipal
authorities.
