Last Friday Mr. d NJ Epps pre-

and thoroughly ripe tomato, which
he grew in his garden. 1t was

toes as late as new years day are not
unusual, but We are disposed to
think that this tomato of Mr. Epps'
beats the record. We have never
heard of an open-air grown tomato

10Th FEEL
What Proper Food Does for Both
Mind and Body.

Physical health. mental health. In.
deed almost everything good on this
earth depend in great measure upon
proper food.
Without health nothing Is worth
while and health can be won almost
every time by proper feeding on the
scientific food GFape-Nuts.
A California trained nurse proved
this: Three years ago | was takex
very sick. my work as trained nurse
having worn me out both In body and
mind, and medicine failed to relieve
me at all After seeing q number Of
physicians and specialists and getting
no relief was very much discouraged
and felt that I would die Of general
nervous and physical collapse.
My condition was so bad l never
imagined food would help me but en-
the advice of friend I tried Grape
Nuts. The first package brought me
so much relief that I QUIT the medi-
cines and used Grape Nuts steadily
three times q day. Tie result was
that within 6 months I had so COM
pletely reSained my strength and
health that was back nursing again
and ! feel the improvement In my
brain power just as plainly as do In
physical strength.

Wall Streets Fascination.

There is a good deal OF unhappi
ness connected with Wall street,
said James r. Keene, "but there's q
fascination about stocks that isn't
known to any other line of business.
Wall street invariably draws man
back, no matter what his failures may
have been. If a dry goods merchant
goes under, loses every cent he has
and finds that he Is completely wound
up, no one sees him in the dry goods
district until he has tried good many
times to get on his feet in other ways.
Then he may go back. 1t is the same
with other branches of trade. But
when a man gets heavily hit down
around the street he can be found at
the old stand until he leaves the world
for good"

Prettiest New York Girl.

By general consent Miss Anita
Stewart, daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Rhinelander Stewart, is voted the
prettiest girl in New York. She is
only 16 years old and will not enter
society for two years, but she often
goes to the matinee with her COVER
ness and, therefore, many persons
have had occasion TO note her great
beauty. Miss Stewards hair is ligh,
brown, with a golden CLINT. Her eyes
are of The drowsy. oriental type. with
long lashcs, but when she grows in
teres.ed in a play her eyes become
animated. Her complexion is perfect
and her nose has a slight tilt that is
fetching. She is tall and graceful.

Matrimonial Promotion.

The extent to which the lingo of
the nay is used as slang in the fami-
lies of naval officers, particularly
among the women, is instanced by q
little story now going the rounds in
Washington.
The youngest daughter Of promi-
nent naval officer was entertaining a
friend who had called to congratulate
the eldest daughter, who lately had
become engaged to captain in the
same service as her father. The
friend, remarking upon the engage
ment. suggested that the youngest
daughter doubtless would miss her
big sister. Whereupon the girl ad-
dressed quickly replied:
"Oh. dear, yes! But just think of l.

Ego the duchess of Wellington was

sent to London for them. A stage
was built in the ballroom and scenes
were painted hurriedly. This enter

been in America nothing has been
