The Gar and the Kaiser.

The last time the car and the kai-

had a fleet. AS their boats drew
away from each other the kaiser, from
the Hohenzollern, selnaphoned to the
czar, The admiral of the Atlantic
salutes the admira lot the Pacic." The
reply required tact. The car did not
want to offend the British by express
ing his belief that the kaiser was
right, neither did he wish to show
discourtesy to the latter by making
no reply. So he quietly rebuffed him
by signaling farewell" and steaming
away

To-day's Labor Saving Appliances.

Twenty or thirty years ago grain
was nearly all sown by hand, and it
was one of the honors bestowed on
an old laborer to give him this task.
To-day this is done automatically by
a machine, and there are machines
for laying on the manure and doing
the work preparatory to sowing. So
with grubbing, hoeing and cleaning
the lands-it is all done by improved
appliances.

could not eat ordinary foods. The
mother says in telling Of the case:
''It was all two doctors could do to
save him as it burnt his throat and
stomach so bad that for two months
after he took the poison nothing
would lay on his stomach. Finally l
took him into the country and tried
new milk and that was no better for
him. His Grandma finally suggested
Grape-Nuts and l am thankful l adopt

better right away and would not eat
anything else. He commenced to get
feshy and his cheeks like red roses
and now he is entirely well.
Il took him to Matamoras on a visit
and every place we went to stay to
eat he called for Grape-Nuts and |
would have TO explain how he came
to call for it as it was his main food
