THE "INVENTION"
Grandma Found it Convenient

1t is remarkable what a change can
be made in a family by Slmplpe re-
arrangement of food.
A Chicago mother says: Much to
my surprise yesterday morning |
found the enclosed letter on my desk,
written by my seven year old daugh-
ter without any suggestion from a
soul, and the little letter induced me to
write something of our experiences.
First my son who was very small
and weak was sent out to visit one
of my sistres, and she induced him to
start in on Grape Nuts and cream in
place of the ordinary food used.
When the boy came back after an
absence of about six months we could
hardly believe our eyes. He had grown
over three inches in height and was
an entirely different fellow in every
way, always ready for any athltic
sport proposed and on the keen go all
of the time, while before he only want
ed to sit or lie down, and suffered
greatly from headaches and general
prostration
So we put our little girl on Grape
Nuts and she grew we'll and healthy
and rosy in short time.
Then Mother, who is so years old,
began using Grape-NutS and would
frequently put the food into soup or
with all egg lIllO d DOWl anu pOul
broth over it.
She had formerly been troubled
with her stomach, suffering great pain
at times; now she says the invention
has cured her and she uses Grape
Nuts in a variety of ways-puddings
dressing for chickens or turkeys gridle
cakes and all sorts of nice things.
The boy has been using Grape-Nuts
now for about two years and has
grown something oevr seven inches
and gained about thirty-five pounds
and is still improving"
The little girls letter is too long to
reproduce, but it is written in a
very cunning style and tells her own
story of how she got over being sick
and was able to go to school again
making four grades in a short time
and how we'll and healthy she felt
and how much she loved the Grape
Nuts
She heard her Mother tell heI
Auntie that "Grape-Nuts was God
send" SO she thought God made
Grape Nuts, until She got hold of the
little recipe book one day, which She
found in the package. and the folks
explained to her that it was made by
some men in Battle Creek. Name
given by Postum Co, Battle Creek
Mich. Look in pkg. for the little
book, "The Road to Wellville.

Twelve years. At this session, the

the secretary to east the vote. as mere
;cfcre. and trcrcfec., changes in the
officers are not unlikely.
the year has been a great one for
the denomination in the State both IN
increase in membership of the
churches and in collections.
During the year past the additions
to the denomination have numbered
10000 people. of whom LOO came
from the mission field There are in
the State 1900 Baptist churches and
100000 white Baptists in the denoml-
nation.
The State Board of Missions, which
met on Friday showed that the CO..
lections had been the most gratifying
in the history of the church. the total
collections amounting to $111,0O0. an
advance of $4,000 over the previous
year. OF this sum $28,000 was for
State Missions. against $4,000 last
wear. For Foreign Missions $4,000
was collected against $4,000 in 1903.
for Home Missions $4,000 againGt
$1,000. There was raised for the
Baptist University $4,000; for the
Orphanage $4,000; for Wake Forest
College. $1,000; for ministerial educa
ton $4,000; and for ministerial rellef
$1,000.

ings and improvements at cost OF

at Wake Forest. a biological laboras
tory and an infrmary. the finishing OF
two buildings at the Orphanage. many
improvements at ChoWan Institute,
and the rebuilding of the oxford SENT
nary. In addition the denomination
has equipped during the year the nine
mission schools.
Questions to arise during the con-
vention are action on communlca-
ton or divorce from Bishop Strange
of the Episcopal convention; mission
work among the negroes; and the elec-
ton Of an assistant corresponding sec
retary to fill the place made vacant
by the resignation of Mr.. A. G. Brown
During the convention there will be
services at the handsome
new Second Baptist chruch of Eliza

JUNIORS WIN CUP
AT A. & M. They Defeat
Freshmen by 6 to 8.
A FerCelY Fought Battle on the Grid
iron With Good Playing on Both
Sides and With One Nose
Broken.

The A. and NJ. College Junior foot
ball team won the game yesterday
from the Freshmen, this deciding the
class championship. The Juniors
have defeated every other class team
in the college and had not even been
scored against until yesterday.
The game yesterday afternoon was
a good one from start to finish. Every
one was surprised to see the Fresh
men put up such a strong game.
After the first fifteen minutes of the
game they outplayed the Juniors at
every point. They were much light
er than the Juniors, but what they
lacked in weight they made up in
quickness. They would line up and
start their plays off with such a sur
prising quickness, that all of the
Junior rooters on the side lines stood
as if dumbfoRnded, and could not
utter one word Porter. their quarter
back, soon found the weak spots in
the Junior line, and hammered them
to perfection.
The Juniors also played a good
game, but We're seriously crippled III
the first half by the loss of their full
back, Etheridge, who had TO be taken
out on account of broken nose.
Etheridge made the touch down for
the Juniors during the first part of
the game, by a series of off tackle
plays and Asbury kicked goal. Gay
lord made a pretty end run of twenty
yards for the Freshmen, during the
second half, for touch down.
Major failed to kick goal.
During the rest of the game, up
until four minutes before time was
called, the ball was kept near the
centre of the field. and neither side
could gain any ground. But during
the last four minutes the Freshmen
took the ball, and by steady line
buCking and long end runs advanced
it TO the Juniors four yard line.
where time was called Pepper
Etheridge and Brock, Oden and AS
bury, played star ball for the Juniors
while Paisant. Eskridge, Porter and
GAYLORD were stars for the Freshment
The class games this year have
been a great success, and much foot
ball material has been developed by
them. he faculty cup will be pre-
sented to the Junior class, Monday
night, at a mass meeting of the stud
ent body in Pullen Auditorium.
