AS EASY
Needs Only a Little Thinking.

Needs Only a Little Thinking.
The food of childhood often decides
whether one is to grow up we'll nour-
ished and healthy or weak and sick
ly from improper food.
It's just as easy to be one as the
other provided we get proper start.
A wise physician like the Denver
Doctor who knew about food, can &C.,
oomplish wonders provided the pa
tient is willing to help and will eat
only proper food.
Speaking Of this case the Mother
said her little four year old boy was
suffering from peculiar arrangement
of the stomach, liver and kidneys and
his feet became so swollen he couldn't
take step. 1--WE called Doctor who
said at once we must be very careful
as to his diet as improper food was
the only cause of his sickness. Sugar
especially, he forbid.
$50 the DR.. made up diet and the
principal food he prescribed was
GrapeNuts and the boy. who was very
fond of sweet things took the Grape
Nuts readily without adding any
sugar. CDR. explained that the sweet
in Grape-Nuts is not at all like cane
or beet sugar but is the natural sweet
of the grains)
I'VE saw big improvement inside a
few days and now Grape-Nuts are al
most his only food and he is once
more healthy, happy, rosy-cheekeG
youngster with every prospect to
grow up into strong healthy man."
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich.
The sweet of Grape-Nuts is the Ma
ture-sweet known as Post Sugar, not
digested in the liver like ordinary
sugar, but pre-digested. Feed the
youngsters handful Of Grape-Nuts
when Nature demands sweet and
prompts them to call for sugar.
There's q reason.

Handsome Waists of White Lace.

Very handsome autumn waists are
made of liberty satin and these waists
are not necessarily expensive. They
may be in a deep shade of oyster
white, trimmed with pale white lace,
and finished with applications of lace
of deep shade of ecru.
1t is very fashionable to make lace
waists Of half dozen shades of white
lace and to use the lace as one would
use fiounces of silk, with one founce
falling over the other.
Lace, in shade of lemon white, is
appliqued with medallions OF lace in
biue.white, while the whole is en-
brodered in stitches that are in a

into vogue-if. indeed. they can be
said ever to have gone out.
Plain shirt waists are the only kind
invored for outdoor sports.
The lace and linen suits are two

Bolera jackets of Irish lace are
worn with any handsome linen skirt.
Neckties made of rows of amber
jet, comedian or amethyst are again
worn.
Elbow sleeves. consisting OF three
puffs, each separated by fall of lace
are smart.
Many sleeves are lifted at the arm
holes to give a high, square-shoul
dered effect.
Elton coats, Russian blouses and
short sacks of black glace silk are
very smart.
