GRANNY DID 1T.
Knew the Food That Furnished
Power.

grandmother, by studying the
proper selection of food, cured herself
of stomach trouble and severe head
aches. Later on she was able to
save her little granddaughter because
of her knowledge of food.
She says: when baby was five
months old she was weaned because
of the severe illness of her mother.
She was put on a prepared baby food
but soon lost flesh and color. beca me
hollow eyed and fretful. We changed
her food several times but with no
permanent benefit. At last her stom-
ach rebelled entirely and threw up
nearly everything she took She would
be wet with cold perspiration after
feeding and would cry piteously with
pain. That is dangerous condition
for small baby, and in this extrem-
ity / remembered how beautifully
Grape-Nuts had agreed with me. and
suggested we try the food for baby.
We began very carefully with ii.
giving two small teaspoonfuls at
feeding. softened with boiling water
and fed in sterized milk, warmed.
The experiment was a perfect success.
She has been on the food five weeks.
and can now eat other food, for the
change in this brief time is wonder
full. She has gained over three pounds
in weight, has rosy cheeks, bright
eyes, and she has the appearance of
a satisfactorily nourished and thriving
child"
The reason that Grape-Nuts will
agree with adults and babies is that
the starch of the cereals has been
transformed into grape sugar in the
process of manufacture. and when in
troduced into the stomach il is ready
for immediate assimilation and does
rot tax the powers of the organs Of
digestion. The result is always bene-
fetal, and the food has saved thou
sands Of lives.

Hague Said to Have This object in
View.
London, Aug. 5.-The correspondent
of the Daily Mail at The Hague says

On warren's Island off the coast

On Warren's Island, off the coast
of Maine. is being erected what is
properly described as "a palatial log
cabin" 1t is composed of spruce logs,
and costs the tidy little sum of $75.-

summer palace is erected was pur-
chased by the late William H. Fol-
well of Philadelphia. Mr.. Folwell died
before the completion of the house.
The work is now superintended by his
son, William H. Folwell. Jr. Some
idea of the size of the cabin" may
be gained from consideration of the
fact that there are twenty-five sleep

TAKE NO SUBSTITUTE!

The great popularity of Peruna
as a cafarrh remedy has tempted
many people to initiate Peruna.
A great many sO-caIIed cafarrh
remedies and catarrh fonics are
to be found In many drug stores.
These remedies can be procured
by the druggist very much cheaper
than Pernna. PeruDa can only
be obtained at a uniform price
and no druggist can get it a cent
cheaper.
Thus IL Is that druggists are
tempted to substitute the cheap
limitations of Peruna for Peruna.
Ii Is done every day without q
doubt.
When q patient calls at a drug
store to procure some Peruna and
the druggist recommends some
thing else that will be just as good,
IL may be that he does not always
recognize the responsibility that
he is taking upon himself. Such
substitute is always sure to re-
suit In failure.
The claim of Peruna to being
the standard cafarrh remedy of
the world Is based upon the fol-
lowing facts:

looking toward what the operators
term a betterment Of the conditions
which they have to contend with at
this time.
The first and most important ques-
ton is the uniformity of rates for the
coming winter season, and some of
the operators are authority for the
statement that the price will advance
within the next few months, because
of the great losses which the compan-
les have been obliged to withstand in
the way of strikes. A matter which
was considered also was the shipment
of coal to the Lake Superior regions,
the control of which was consum-
mated in Chicago in April and which
was to become effective in September.
