PLAIN TALK
Food for Thought There. Too.

Having found out for myself the
food that enables me to get the most
pleasure out of life consider it a duty
to tell someone else my experience"
says a Mass. woman.
Born with a weak and sensitive
stomach 1 suffered long with indiges-
ton and the many ills arising from it,
general constipation, weakness of the
bowels together with catarrhal inf1am-
nation and rheumatism of every form
and fashion with a tremendous amount
of suffering. / had what is known as
deposits of brick dust and uric acid,
with almost every other impurity of
the blood which such a condition can
produce.
Coming to the conclusion that I
must eat to live and not live to eat
began looking about to find the best
way and among the many foods tested
was Grape-Nuts. 1 did not use it as a
general food or exclusively but simply
ate it once a day either at morning or
night on an empty stomach and soft
ened in warm cream or milk with a
little sugar, bread or butter or cooked
or raw fruit. Up to this time 1 had
tried every known remedy for conSti-
patton and had to rely on the medi-
cines, although 1 continually got worse
instead of better; within a short time
the Grape-Nuts food (Which always
digested) had toned up my whole sys-
tenn and digestive organs in particular
until every bit of constipation and
bowel trouble disappeared and babe
good bye to all the cathartics.
Now after using Grape-NutS two
years I still think it delicious. My
rheumatism is all gone, also the con-
stipation, something had never even
hoped for, never have headache
nowadays, my eyesight and hearing
are excellent for one of my age, but
had given me much trouble while I
suffered from constipation. I am now
past so years of age but walk out and
enjoy it. Feel strong and well and I
know the Grape-Nuts has given added
vigor to my brain, too. 1t would be
very gratifying to me to know that my
letter had helped show others the way
to a proper diet that has cured my
stomach and bowel trouble" Name

ROWETT ON NEW TASK.
State Accountant Checking Up Barber
Board.

Governor Bailey has started State
Accountant Rowett at work checking
up the barber board The affairs of
the barber board seem to be in a
has been after the board for some
time, and the members of the board
have confessed that they are unable
20 Straighten matters out Each mem
Der seems to think that the other two
members have collected more fees
than they are entitled to, and it Will
take the accountants investigation to
md out how matters stand
The members of the BARRIERS board
are J. d. Stevens of Leavenworth, w.
l. Akers of Wichita, and d. NJ. Mitch
ell OF Argentine. Stevens is president,
Akers is secretary, and Mitchell is
treasurer.
Under the law, which was passed
by the last legislature, all BARRIERS in
towns of 5000 population and over
must pass an examination and secure
a license from the board. The mem
bers OF the board receive SO per day
and their expenses in making the ex-
aminations.
The members of the board are said
TO have divided up the work of issuing
the licenses this year and each one
has kept what he has collected-at
least this seems to be the case, and
they have made no report That is
why the state accountant will go over
their books and find out how much
each has received, and if anything is
coming to the state after paying their
per diem and expenses
Governor Bailey, who has been try
ing to get the board to straighten out
its affairs for some time, thinks it is
simply a case of bad bookkeeping. He
thinks the members of the board are
probably good BARRIERS but poor book
keepers
The Wichita Beacon publishes a
statement that Secretary Akers, who
had been employed in a barber shop
In that city, left two months ago for
the worlds fair and has not yet re-
turned. nor is it known when he will
be back.
The barber law was supposed to
be in the interests of hygiene and
cleanliness in barber shops The bar
bers themselves were very anxious
for It and have been working for such
g law for several legislatures past, and
finally got it at the last session.
Some shops, soon after the law went
into effect, raised the price of shaves
10 5 cents, but not all of them did
so. The law does not seem to have
been a very great success thus far
