WHAT THE KING EATS.
What's Fit for Him.

A Mass. lady who has been through
the mill with the trials Of the usual
housekeeper and mother relates an
interesting incident that occurred not
long ago. She says:
81 can with all truthfulness say that
Grape-Nuts is the most beneficial OF
all cereal foods in my family, young
as well as old. 1t IS food and medi-
cine both to US. A few mornings ago
at breakfast my little boy said:
Mamma, does the King eat Grape
Nuts every morningF
Il smiled and told him I did not
know, but that l thought Grape-Nuts
certainly made a delicious dish, fit for
King" (It's a fact that the King Of
England and the German Emperor
both eat Grape-Nuts.)
81 find that by the constant use Of
Grape-Nuts not only as a morning ce-
real but also in buildings, salads, ETC.,
made after the delicious recipes found
in the little book In each package It
is proving to be a great nerve food
for me besides having completely
cured long standing case Of lndlges-
ton" Name given by Postum Co.,

There is no doubt Grape-Nuts is the
most scientific food in the world.
Ten days trial Of this proper food
in place of improper food will show in
steady, stronger nerves, sharper brain
and the power to go" longer and
further and accomplish more. There's
a reason.

An economical woman has discov
cred another little way to make the
most of what she has.
White or colored kid slippers often
become shabby in appearance because
the kid has been peeled off the heels
If the slippers are otherwise in good
condition the heels can be made ia
look like new by cutting from the tor
of an old glove Of the same color 8
piece of kid large enough to stretch
and paste about the heel. The upper
edge can be securely pushed under
the sole Of the shoe and neatly
trimmed at the bottom. If not worn
until perfectly dry the result is most
satisfactory.
