What He Might Save.

Members of the budget committed
have been relating some amusing anec-
dotes at a recent meeting, with a view
to illustrating that economy is not al
ways practised with as much care as
could be wished. A former minister OF
war was the hero of one. This officer
having been asked whether he could not
contrive to cut his estimates down lit
tie, promptly replied that the thing was
impossible. Now, tell us. frankly"
continued the politician who was inter-
ting him on the subject, if you
were to be condemned to be shot if you
could not iTam sdiately realize some
savings without disorganizing any of
your services, what would you do?
WELL in such case I think that l
could dispense with $4,000, 600 francs,
was the candid answer.-London Daily

had electrified all Europe with their
daring in the way Of animal education.
When 16 years of age, Otto, while a t

famous name for himself by allowing a
lion to follow him all over the campus
until the learned professors objected.
This so annoyed the boy that he left

when leaving school to find that the
family had accumulated enough of the

After ten years of the hardest kind

Occasion of Kings Visit Is Made
Holiday.

Dublin, July 21.-The entry of King
Edward and Queen Alexandra into
Dublin was made the occasion for a
general holiday. The decoration of the
city surpassed anything hitherto at

various places were crowded while the
people were massed on the sidewalks.
Their majesties continuously bowed
their acknowledgements of the warm
greetings, especially at the college green,
which was packed by multitude of
people.
The procession to Dublin consisted of
four carriages. The first was occupied
by their majesties. the lord lieutenant
and the Princess Victoria. In the other
three were the suites. The Duke of
Connaught, commander of the forces in
Ireland and of the third army corps.

Food Strengthens the Mother anC
Makes Milk for the Baby.

There are many cases on record
where the use of the scientific food
Grape-Nuts has produced milk for a
mother in few days, so she could
nurse her baby in the natural way.
A case of this kind is told by a lady
of Decatur, Va, When my baby was
two months old I had a very disorder
ed stomach and everything 1 ate -disa-
greed with me-
This worried me so and 1 was so
weak and nervous I was almost
wreck and had to stay in bed most of
the time and the result was that I had
to put baby on the bottle. After try
ing this for a week the poor little thing
did not thrive and l thought she would
surely die.
Then along came a friend who
begged me to try Grape-Nuts food al
though neither she nor 1 thought it
would cause me to have nourishment
for baby. But I concluded to eat Grape
Nuts and began that same day with
good results.
1t was the first food I had eaten for
more than three weeks that had agreed
with me and 1 continued eating it and
gained strength rapidly and after only
two days use of this food I was able
70 nurse my baby again and in less
than a week 1 had taken her entirely
from tie bottle
You can imagine what a pleasure
this IS to a mother and l am more
thankful to Grape-Nuts food on baby's
account than on my own although in
