LARGE AUDIENCE
 HEARS MISS BLoDoETr,

Miss Blodgett addressed another large audience of women yesterday afternoon at the First Methodist church. The sub- Ject of her fourth Bible talk was Abra- ham, the man of faith.
 The outline presented included the incidents in the life of Abraham. Miss Blodgett discussing them in three groups. the first containing those which have to do with the exercise and development of his faith; the second with his unbellef. or self-life; and the third with his separa- tion from the world and unto God.
 Miss Blodgett said that man having proved complete failure in Eden, dur ing the age of freedom, and also under government established after the flood. God ceased to deal with the race as a whole and selected one man through whom to bless all nations His direct dealings henceforth were to be chiefly with the people of Isreal, Abraham's dis cardants, but always with a view to using them as means of blessing the whole race.
 Miss Blodgett's talks are wholly in- formal and begin at o'clock, continuing until 4 Her next talk will be given to- morrow afternoon. The classes increrase in numbers as well as interest at every lecture, and so widespread is the interest that 1t Is understood the work will be carried on In connection with the Primary union after Miss Blodgett concludes her course.

POWERFUL FOOD That Can Lift You Out of Bed.

The proper food to buiid up the sys- tenn after an attack of Illness, or any other time, is important to know about.
 Last year, I had typhoid malaria fever" says a lady in Manila, la, and 1t left me so weak I could scarcely turn in bed. I was very nervous. the least noise annoyed me, and l could hardly eat anything.
 A friend recommended Grape-Nuts food, thinking maybe I would like that and I did. I commenced gaining strength and am now able to walk around out of doors, having gained over twenty pounds, ana Grape-Nuts did 1t.
 My little brother used to be thin and pale. Although he seemed to eat enough food, what he did eat did him no good He was put on Grape-Nuts regularly and is now strong and well and gaining fast in flesh. I recommend Grape-Nuts to all who are weak and run down. Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek. Mich.

WILL RETAIN GREEK.
Oxford University Has Decided to
 Make It a Compulsory Study.

London, November 11.-Oxford uni versity has decided to retain Greek as a compulsory study.
 The recommencement of work at Oxford and Cambridge universities elicited from the London Times, Octo- Der 25, a lengthy and important re- view of the steps taken towards the progress of English in the universities caused by the waking up of English agitation. The Times announced that Oxford was considering the advisabil ity of abolishing Greek as compul- sorry subject. If this was done, the Times pointed out, it would have much far-reaching consequences on education throughout the country, which would then certainly be in harmony with the trend of modern thought"
