NEW BRITAIN CARPENTERS
Ask for Minimum Wage of $2 80 Pc

Ask for Minimum Wage of $2.S0 Per Day-Painters Still Out. New Britain, April 16.-The Master Builders association has practically de- cided that it cannot grant the demands of the local carpenters union for in- creased wages to commence on May 1. The carpenters are now receiving a
 minimum rate of $2.50 a day and their demand is for minimum of $2.S0.
 Many of the builders claim that they
 are paying first-class men even more than the new minimum rate, but that they cannot see their way clear to raise the wages of men who are not as prof.
 cient at their trade as others.
 The master builders and the master
 painters will practically stand together on the question of wages. The painters are still on strike and there is no sign
 of the master painters granting the de-
 mands of fifty cents a day increased
 wages.

BORROWED A PACKAGE
And Learned the Scientific Value ot
 Pure Food.

FurG fOoUs
 Taking notice of little things is val uable faculty in life and many great discoveries have sprung from a hum ble source indeed.
 "One day." says a lady of Norwich, N. Y, a sister of the County Judge and Surrogate of Chenango County, q noticed on a grocer's shelf the now familiar package of Grape-Nuts. I asked him to let me see it, read what 1t had to say for itself, paid the 15 cents required by the merchant and be- came its possessor.
 At this time had lost my desire for food having suffered so terribly from indigestion and all of it's attendant evils that no food agreed with me or attract ed me. But from the time that I began to eat my first package of Grape-Nuts began to improve, eating it every morning and frequently at moons and nights.
 q very soon found my whole strength coming back to me with an added force. gained in flesh and also found I could eat what others did with relish without any i'll effects following. In short it has changed my life.
 "A Sew weeks since I visited niece in Penn., whose stomach refused to care for any food put into it. Rice. whole wheat bread and other foods had to be pumped out ten hours after eating. I suggested Grape-Nuts and she ate it and when the contents of her stomach were syphoned out there was, no trace of Grape-N Nuts to be found: it had di- gested and been assimilated. She made great gains in strength and flesh while was there and made the six mile ride to Scranton three times, something she had not been able to do for three months previous" Names furnished by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

THE MINISTER WARNED THEM

Rear Admiral Frank Wildes, who died recently, used to be fond of telling of a great start that a Boston clergyman once gave his congregation.
