MEN WHO THINK

Quick eating causes slow thinking. Peo-
pie who want to think quickly should eat
slowly. The minutes that are saved at
the dining table and lunch counter are
often lost in hours of stupid thought.
Rapidly chewed food inevitably leads to
dull wit.
One thing about Shredded Whole Wheat
Biscuit is that it must be chewed. It
calls for the exercise of the teeth and
salivary glands. and when the food
reaches the stomach it is in perfect form
for digestion and assimilation. Shredded
Wheat is light and porous. and every
mouthful is laden with nutrition for
blood. bone. nerve and brain. Being
natural food it subserves the purpose for
which food Is taken.
j. s. Cairns. st. Paul, MINI, writes: 1 am
night editor Of a daily paper. and rush is the
word. 1 must think clearly and must think
rapidly. When lunchtime comes, instead of

CURE FOR HAY FEVER.
t. II. Thomas says HyOmeI WIN Give Relief
Sold Under Guarantee.

The season for hay fever is almost
at hand and many people feel that
they will be obliged To leave town in
order to avoid the sneezing, watery
eyes and other annoying symptoms of
this disagreeable summer disease.
i. III. Thomas wishes us to announce
that when Hyomei is used. either as n
preventive or cure, there will be no
hay fever. He advises the use of Hyo-
mel daily for two or three weeks be
fore the usual time for the annual APP
pearance of hay fever. In this way
the attack will be prevented. If,
however, the preventive treatment
was not started soon enough and the
disease comes ON, use Hyomei six or
seven times daily and also rub Hyo-
mel Balm thoroughly into the nostrels
both morning and night. This treat
ment will relieve at once and give a
speedy and permanent cure.
Hyomei actually brings into your
own home, n climate filled with ozone
and healing balsams, the same air
that one breathes at the White Noun
tains or other health resorts.
There is no stomach dosing when
Hyomei is used. 1t is natures own
method for curing all diseases of the
respiratory organs, and is breathed
through neat pocket inhaler that
accompanies every outfit, so that the
medicated air reaches the minutest
air cells, killing all germs and sooth-
ing and healing the irritated mucous
membrane.
II is the one treatment for haV
fever where 7. II. Thomas guarantees
to refund the money if it does not
give satisfaction. All who are sub
ject to hay fever should begin its use
at once so as to prevent the disease.

matchless means which the master

fact that during the summer months

whose standing forbids the thought
of their lending their names to any

ask themselves. what does this mean,

on them with force that compels
conviction. Nothing but merit and
real conscientious work could pro-
duce such results and make such a
record as this.
