ORIGIN
OF q Famous Human Food.

human system. In other words before
he could carry out his plans ne had 20
| md a food that would carry him along
and renew his physical and mental
strength.
He knew that a food that was a brain
and nerve builder, (rather than a mere
Tat maker). was universally needed He
knew that meat with the average man
does not accomplish the desired results
Re knew that the soft gray substance
IN brain and nerve centerS is made from
Albumcn and Phosphate of Potash OBJ
tanned from food. Then he started TO
solve tho problem
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts the now famous
food. Grape-Nuts contain the brain and
uerve-building food elements I'm condi-
ton for easy digestion. The result OF
eating Grape-Nuts daily Is easily seen
in marked sturdiness and activity of

THE PRIVILEGES OF WOMEN.
One Member Of the Fair Sex Satisfied
with Her Position

Mr.. Stead says that there are only
three privileges OF my sex-namely,
that In going in or out OF a room the
woman goes first; that she is served
before man at meal (a statement
which Is quite wrong, by the way.
only one woman at table having that
distinction, the one on the hosts
right; the other guests, whether male
or female, in every household above
mere middle class being served in
regular rotation), and that In train
a man gives up his seat to her.
could give Mr.. Stead many more. Our
bills are paid for us-when our male
belongings have any money ia pay
them with; we are made love to,
which may be despicshle but is dis
tinctly enjoyable; we are admired,
which is no doubt foolish but none
the less gratifying to us. In spite OF
the preponderance of cur sex the ma
jority OF us are so pleased with our
selves that we have no desire to visit
the republic in the neighborhood OF
the Mountains of the Moon: and con-
sidering that we can do anything we
like In this year OF grace and that we
rule all your sex az 1t Is, dear Mr..
Stead, why call us "despised" and rail
at the world for not making us "su-
preme," when It had never occurred to
us that we we're anything else?-"A

QUEER FACTS ABOUT RAIN.
One Catches Less Water by Walking
Than Running in Downpour.

Than Running in DoWnpour.
do you know" said the observant
citizen, the habit of running through
the rain is based on definite fallacy?
II is common habit But does it tend
to minimize the amount of water fall
Ing on a person exposed to the rain?
/ am convinced that 1t rather aggra-
Yates the situation. BY experience, in
passing the distance OF block, run
ming one time and walking the other,
and at times when the rainfall was
about the same, found that my
clothes picked up more water and
were consequently damper when COW
cred the distance in run than they
were when / walked.
There seems to be a good reason
for the rather curious fact. Rain falls
irregularly. Sometimes there is
SPACE OF five or six inches between
the falling drops, as we have noticed
on smooth surfaces, like stone flag
gfng, and again only the fraction OF
an inch will separate the drops. Water
occasionally falls in sheets, but this
Is not usual. But while the fall is ir-
regular, considered with respect to the
perpendicular lines described in the
descent, looking straight ahead and
through the lines we will find before
us sheet Of water that is well-nigh
solid. We can understand that run
ming against this sheet Of water will
have very much the same effect wind
would have II its direction forced the
rain into our faces. We simply pick
up the water and the fact that the
spaces between the drops, perpendic'
ularly considered, are greater than the
spaces IN any given direction horizon
tally will explain to US the fallacy Of
the whole thing"

Enabled Great Statesman to Conquer
Physical Weakness.
Gladstone fables are rather numer-
Gus. A good many Of them are demol-
ished in Mr.. Mofiey's Life. The world
used to hear that he never lost his
power OF sleeping after the most ex-
citing nights in Parliament. But in
his diary for 1852 he writes: Nervous
excitement kept me wakeful after
speaking, the first time for many
years" Twenty years later he had
several spells of sleeplessness. He
Enthusiastically explains that 1t was
not the lack of sleep that troubled him
but the consequent state Of his brain
next morning. At other times he was
afflicted with neuralgia attacks. His
eyes magnificent to look att were
never very strong. The Life, more
over, supplies abundant proof Of his
possession Of q vital force not to be
measured by any tsysical standard.
He could concuer weakness by indom.
table will, and indulge in fests of en-
dursnce which would have been dan
gerous but for his splendid powers Of
recuperation. When greatly troubled
he seems to have found the relief he
required in talking it all over with
Catherine" his devoted wife.
