REDUCE LIVING EXPENSES.
BY Eating the Most Delicious and
Nourishing of All Cereals, Malt
Breakfast Food.

Meat is high, eggs are higher, but the
price of Malt Breakfast Food is the
same: in fact it is less than ever, for
the size of the package has been in
creased to full two pounds.
Compare this with the fourteen ounce
package of ''ready-to-eat" cereals, and
you see at once the superior economy OF
Malt Breakfast Food. Then keep in
mind that Malt Breakfast Food is to
be cooked in your own kitchen, and
brought to the table & steaming-hot
dish of delicious nutriment, eight times
as much as the ready-to-serve cereals,
package for package. Make this ex-
pertinent for yourself, and you will see
that when this standard malt-wheat
cereal is cooked according to directions,
a cupful of the food to three pints of
water. it makes not only the most de-
licious. satisfying and digestible of all
cereals, but by far the most economic
cal.
Malt Breakfast Food is plain, simple,
honest food. the best of whole wheat,
thoroughly matted and cooked. 1t is
not one of those foods which Mr..
Dooley poked fun at as almost food,
scientific preparation Of burlaps, Sawd
list. or Hungareen, chemically pure
dish. made of the exterior of bath
towss.' 1t is ready to cook, and should
be served hot. the most appetizing, de-
licious Of foods. supplying perfectly all
the elements necessary for sound
body and vigorous brain.
With every package of Malt Break
fast Food is packed beautiful carbon
photograph. while larger photographs,
without advertising or printing, dupli-
Gates of which cost two or three dollars
at the art stores. are given in return
for coupons taken from the packages.
Ask your grocer about Malt Break
fast Food. He will tell you that it is
the preference with his best trade, and
that in it you get your moneys worth
mort fully than in any other cereal in
his store.

CALL BY NUMBER.
Rule Will Be Enforced at the AUGUSTA
Central Office.

Manager Charles H. O'Brien of the
Augusta Central Office Of the New Eng
land Telephone Company informs the
+; Journal that on next Monday
| morning the phone girls will begin
| the enforcement of the rule that
calls must be requested by num-
ber All books and sheets of reference
will be removed from the switchboard
| in the central except the list of new
subscribers since the last directory,
was issued. If someone calls central
and asks fer connection with John
Smiths office the answer will be an in
quiry for John Smiths number. and If
he doesn't know, the call will be refer
red to an assistant operator to look up
as soon as may be with other possible
calls ahead of it or crowding in. The
girl at the switchboard will not ATTEMPT
TO find any party without number .ex-
cept it is one of those whose telephones
have been so recently put in that their
names have not yet appeared in the
book, and those names will be posted
in front of each operator.
In calling for those new names IT
will save explanations if it is specified
that the name is not in the book. In
calling for numbers the central opera
tor will under the new regula lions re-
peat the call to the one ringing up, and;
make sure of its accuracy; 50 that if
some one asks for 1882. the call will
come back to him: "One, three, eight
ring two" and then the call be made
and the operator will also inquire if the
party answers. The Augusta central
has grown so large that this is neces-t
sary, as it takes so much time to look
up numbers when names are asked for
| that it delays the service badly. There
are now more than 500 Instruments on
Augusta exchange, and it takes five
girls to do the work at the switchboard.
A larger switchboard and more girls
are expected in the near future. I'm
der the new arrangement there will be
no attempt to have the girls memorize
the list of subscribers, but they will be
trained to promptly answer calls by
number

gins to return at once. A few days
treatment will bring relief, and in
three or four weeks, according to the
severity of the case, cure will be ac-

Miss Meeks Of Mattewan, N. Y, says
"Hyomei is truly wonderful. l have
used it but a short time and see a great
change in my condition. My hearing
is improving rapidly, and I had no idea
I would improve so rapidly in so short
a time. My breath which was very
offensive to myself and others, has lost
it's bad odor entirely. I have spent a
great deal of money with catarrh spe
cialists and can truly say that six
months of their treatment is not equal
to one month of Hyomei"
Percy w. Means and Bowditch and
Webster are selling Hyomei upon the
unusual plan of agreeing to return the
money If tine medicine does not cure.
A complete outfit costs only $1.00
end consists of an inhaler that can be
carried in the vest pocket, medicine
dropper and a bottle of Hyomei. The
inhaler will last a lifetime and there
is enough Hyomei for more than
months treatment. Additional bottles
of Hyomei can be procured Tor 5o
cents. Compare this small expense
with the fees charged by specialists
and then remember that If Hyomel
does not cure, your druggist will re-
turn your money.
