my boys all think they owe much
TO the food Grape-Nuts and on field
days or in the foot ball season the
athletic ones declare Grape Nuts Is a
great strengthener and muscle maker
I have no doubt they are right but IT
interest me more to know positively
that Grape-Nuts makes general good
health and restores the wasted brain
and nerve matter and keeps my Buys
normal and strong.
LAS for myself j have been troubled

suited in violent attacks of headache
about once every two weeks. These
were so severe that / would be unable
to raise my head for "A hours, then
Nature would readjust herself by rest
and an entire lack OF food. Then I be-
gan to use Grape Nuts for breakfast
and stomach trouble began TO fade
away. All of the symptoms have grad
ually changed for the better and the
very few headaches / have had since
using Grape-Nuts have been very light
and have not interfered with my
regular work. while am heshier and
stronger than ever before. take

POWER OF OCEAN TIDES.
Bay of Fundy Presents an Interest,"
ing Problem.
From Casters Magazine.

From Casters Magazine.
Tidal power has been utilized in only
very small way; it's large use has
always been considered dubious. In
the first place, tides of a hight readily
available are local in their occurrence;
and, second, tides are essentially pc
riodic, so that their direct power is
available only in two short daily pc
RODS occurring in cyclic order during
each part of the twenty-four yours as
the month is rounded out. Hence,
the first problem of tide utilization is
storage of power
1t is possible by use of multiple
reservoirs to extend the use of the
tides throughout the twenty-four
hours. three-pond system accom-
plishes this cid at considerable cost
in complication of J, waterways and va
riatfons in head. and even a two-pond
system helps to a steady use Of tidal
power for part Of the day. There is.
too, great variation in the rate of flow
in the tides of different localities, the
most favorable case being that in
which tide rises and falls most rapidly.
But the main trouble with the tides is
that the total rise is relatively small,
compelling one to deal with low, as
we'll as variable heads, and to provide
enormous reservoirs to store even
enough water for use in two daily
five-hour runs. In very few places
would it be possible to rely on more
than six feet mean working head.
This means that If the storage pond
were six feet deep, each square mile OF
reservoir would store water for 5000
horse power for five-hour run. Even
this is an unusually favorable case,
and it is evident at once that hydrau-
lie works on this scale imply a very
larg,A investment for the power OBJ
tanned.
The only tidal powers to be taken
seriously as able to count in large
work are such as exist in exceptional
spots, like the Bay of Fundy, where
the tide runs forty feet high under
normal conditions. There it would
be possible to obtain, for two five
hour runs, more than so, 000-horse pow
er per square mile of reservoir. A
glance at map will show that the
inner extremity of the Bay of Fundy
is almost a tidal lake, known as the
Basin of Minas. At its outlet rise
two great headlands, less than three
miles apart, while the narrower tide
race between them takes the full cur
rent for the basin within. This COW
ers an area of more than 400 square
miles, so that it is safe to say that
through that narrow gap more than
zoe. 900, 0O0 horsepower hours run daily
to waste.
To utilize it would require an en-
cheering feat more tremendous than
anything yet attempted by man, but
in years to come the game may be
worth the candle.

WORLDS RECORD HIGH JUMP.

Philadelphia, Sept. 25.-Heatherbloom

The record was made during an ex-
hibition trial. Four attempts were
made. At the first attempt the great
jumper cleared five feet six inches; on
the second attempt, six feet 81 inches
was cleared; on the third, seven feet
one inch, and the fourth trial the bar
was topped at seven feet nine inches.
The owner of Heatherbloom, Howard
Willetts, of White Plains, n. Y, was

Carpenters who work on bamboo fur
niture do not make as high wages as
bamboo carpenters, but they come out
better in the long run. There Is Work
for them all the time, for the demand
for bamboo furniture is much greater
than the supply. Many persons who
have lived in Japan. where the houses
are made of bamboo, are constantly
calling for bamboo material here. Fney
want beds made Of it. Sometimes
architects send designs to the bamboo
factory for special furniture flor the
library or smoking room. Some New
York homes have Japanese room. IN
some instances the bent wood furniture
costs more than the Japanese wood, but
in most cases it Is cheaper. Calcutta
sends a kind of bamboo marked with
peculiar tiger-like stripes that artists
like for making easels.
