SUMMER ADVICE.
By One Who Knows.

Keep cool in hot weather.
How"
BY eating Grape Nuts every day.
"Rats,'
No. not rats, but a good, sound fact
that thousands make daily use of.
Grape Nuts is predigested sSod
which makes digestion easy.
Ii gives the nourishment without the
internal heat caused by heavy carbon
aceous foods.
You can feel from ten to twenty de-
grees cooler than your neighbor when
you eat proper food that does not over
tax the stomach.
Crane Nuts is made from certain parts
of the grain and by mechanical process
the starches are changed into grape
sugar in the same manner as the
stomach would do in the first act of di-
gestion.
The phosphates of the cereals are re-
tanned in Grape Nuts and these and the
grape sugar supply the necessary nour-
ishment to body, brain and nerve
centers.
Grape Nuts is concentrated food
giving strength, vitality and GOODNESS to
| the body and energy and clearness to
the BRAIN in place oil the heavy. sluggish
draggy feeling caused by meat, potatoes,
| etc.
] Another point.
| 1t is thoroughly cooked at the factory
by food experts and saves you the
| trouble.
You get it from the grocer and by add
| ing cream, 1t is ready to serve.
| No hot stove. no cross cook. no loss oi
| time or exertion as with other food.
Its crisp taste with the delicate sweet
OF the grape sugar makes 1t pleasing to
| the palate of the most critical epicure.
The recipe book in each package OF
Grape Nuts gives many pleasing pud-
dings. salads, entrees and desserts that
can be made.
Worth trial and a package will prove

unless something unexpected should
happen to prevent, Mr.. SJaw will be
the Presidents host about August 81.
No Lecture Bureau.
Regarding the report that all the
members of the Cabinet were likely to
make political speeches during the fall
camoaign. Mr.. Shaw said:
1T is putting the matter altogether
too strong to make it appear as lee
ture bureau arrangement of three
speeches q day for so many days. Some
of the members Of the Cabinet Will
speak, and some, | believe, will not
do not know as yet when or where
may speak. but expect to be in Maine
at least. The idea that grand, pre-

F. A. Shurtleff & Co., the enterprising
agents for Hood Farm Remedies in
South Paris, have recently received an
other lot of these goods. They report
that the sales of Hood Farm Remedies
are gradually increasing and that breed
ers are pleased with the effects of the
medicines. Circulars describing these
remedies can be obtained of Messrs.
Shurtleff & Co., and every stock owner
should be interested, as the use of Hood
Farm Condition Powders, Calf Scour
Cure and other remedies will result in
saving money to the farmers. At Hood
Farm, Lowell, Mass, where the remedies
were first used there were 81 cases of
calf scours in one year, and, owing to
the prompt use of the Calf Scour Cure
and Digestive Powder, only three calves
were lost from this disease. This is a
remarkable record, and we understand
other breeders report equally good re-
suits from the use of these remedies.
