would bring the number up to no. This
the clerk disputed, contenoing that there
had been no such transaction and that
he had disposed of a number OF the

A mother writes about her son and it is
interesting my son, Albert, now Is
years old and principal of the - High
School, graduated at the Kansas Univer-
sity and is postgraduate of the Co.
lumbia, Mo-, University.
When he began teaching about year
ago he had just completed his education
and was badly broken down in health
He had only about two months vacation
and spent it at Excelsior springs. but
when he returned, there was no improve
ment.
I'VE thought he would get better after
he began his work, but instead of i'm
proving he became more weak and ner-
vous, and finally, forgetful in the school
room. He tried different physicians and
everything he could hear of and at last
gave up school and came home, a1.er
putting a teacher in his place.
Il cooked every delicacy I could think
OF for him, but he became very thin and
we were greatly worried about him. One
day a neighbor sent over box of Grape
Nuts. He caught sight of the package
and after reading the statement of what
the food was intended for, became much
interested and began using it.
HE liked it, and at the end of week
was very much strengthened and i'm
proved. We were encouraged. He
stuck to Grape-Nuts and in five weeks
was back in the school room.
HE is now teaching the second term in
the same place, has recovered entirely
and gained wonderfully in flesh. He
now weighs 165 pounds and is an expert
football player.
