JEALOUS OF HER.
Miss Palmer Discharged by s.
Miller Kent.

Miss Ethelyn Palmer, the Topeka act
ress who was seen in the part of Mrs.
Weston in 1.-The Cowboy and The
Lady at the Crawford, has been given
two weeks notice that she was no longer
wanted with the company.
The story of the trouble is that S.
Miller Kent. who plays the part of
Teddy North" and who owns a third
interest in the play and styles himself
on the bill boards as the star, became
jealous of Miss Palmer. During the
entire season she has received press
notices all over the country that praised
her more than Kent. After the Topeka
engagement Kent accused Miss Palmer
of having done all she could to bias the
Topeka papers against him. In other
words Kent made the childish and
school boy charge that Miss Palmer had
Knocked" on him. The State Journal
praised Miss Palmer's work on the
stage because she deserved it but the
writer had never an idea that it would
be a cause for Miss Palmer to lose her
position. The porphecy can now be
made that there will be a time when S.
Miller Kent may be mighty glad to ac-
cept an engagement in company that
will be supporting Miss Palmer. She
has a future before her, she will rise
despite S. Miller Kent or anyone else.
Miss Palmer is now in Clinton, Conn.

MANY DON'T KNOW.
Lack of Right Food is the Cause of
Sickness.

1t is hardly fair to blame the doctor
for not curing his patient when the
patient attempts to live on food that
furnishes the wrong kind of nourish-
ment When sickness comes on it is a
pretty good sign that the food is not
keeping the body up. There are thous-
ands of cases where a change in food
alone has brought the sick one out into
a prime condition of health.
AS an illustration. A lady in River
side, Calf, says, after ten years of
service as a teacher, during which time
/ suffered three or four attacks of La
Grippe, finally found myself a physi-
cal wreck. Medical treatment would
help my strength and vitality temper
arily but I would always go back.
Husband and 1 moved to California in
the hopes that this genial cline would
restore me. 1 got better for a little
while but in few months became so
weak and debilitated that We were in
despair.
Finally through the influence of a
friend 1 changed my diet and began US
ing Grape-Nuts and Postum Coffee. I
used Grape-Nuts at two of my meals
each day and have gained 10 pounds in
weight and the increase in strength is
really wonderful.
I am back to the healthy, good feel
ings of my girlhood days. / enjoy Pos
tum better than any beverage 1 have
ever used. My friends remark on my
improved condition and ] am impelled
to write this letter with profound graft
tude, hoping that many others may be
induced to go and do likewise. / have
proved that health is the natural conse-
querfce of properly selected food. Please
do not use my name but Will be glad
to reply to any inquiries Name fur
