FASHION HERE AND IN CHINA.
cOmment by Ambsssador From Lac

Comment BY Ambassador From the
Flowery Kingdom.
At a dinner party in Washington,
the new Chinese ambassador dis
cussed American fashions satirically.
Now, in China" he said. our fash
ions never change. I wear the same
sort Of hat, the same sort Of coat. the
same sort Of shoes, that a man in my
position wore a thousand years ago.
And it is the same with the Chinese
women. Their fashions also have not
changed in know not how many dy-
nasties. Long ago, in China, we
found the costumes that seemed to us
the most graceful and the most com
Portable, and we cling to those COS
tunes. We love them.
But yOu-here in America-hOw
often it is-every week. every fort

ions? Only the other day l met on

Of whom I am fond He had a par
eel under his arm. stopped my car

Come I said. let us have a little
chat-a comfortable little chat.
But the naval officer shook his
head. He said hurriedly:

ORIGIN.
Of a Famous human Food.

The srOTy Of great discoveries or in
ventions is always Of interest
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered by lack OF bodily
strength and vigor and could not
carry out the plans and enterprises
he knew how to conduct was led to
study various foods and their effects
upon the human system In other
words before he could carry out his
plans he had to find a food that would
carry him along and renew his physi-
cal and mental strength
He knew that a food that was q
brain and nerve builder, (rather than
a mere fat maker). was universally
needed. He knew that meat with the
average man does not accomplish the
desired results He knew that the
soft gray substance in brain and,
nerve centers is made from AIbumen
and Phosphate OF Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solve
the problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts, the now famous
food. Grape-Nuts contain the brain
and nerve building food elements in
condition for easy digestion The re
suit Of eating Grape-Nuts daily IS
easily seen in a marked sturdiness
and activity Of the brain and nervous
system, making it q pleasure for one
to carry on the daily duties without
fatigue or exhaustion The food IS
in no sense q stimulant but Is simply
food which reneEs and replaces the
daily waste Of brain and nerves.
