WANTED TO SLEEP.
Curious That Tired Preacher Should
Have Such Desire.

A minister speaks of the curious eff
fect of Grape-Nuts food on him and
how 1t has relieved him.
"You will doubtless understand how
The suffering with indigestion with
which used to be troubled made nay
work an almost uncomfortable burden,
and why it was that after my Sabbath
duties had been performed, sleep was
stranger to my pillow till nearly day
light.
IT had to be very careful as to what
ate, and even with all my care ex-
perienced poignant physical distress
after meals, and my food never salts
fed me-
six months have elapsed since I be-
gan to use Grape-Nuts food, and the
benefits have derived from it are very
definite. / no longer suffer from indi-
gestion, and / began to improve from
the time GTape-Nuts appeared on our
table. I find that by eating dish of
it after my Sabbath work is done land
always do so now my nerves are
quieted and rest and refreshing sleep
are insured me. / feel that could not
possibly do without Grape-Nuts food,
now that know its value. It is inva-
riably on our table-we feel that we
need it to complete the meal-and our
children will eat Grape Nuts when
they cannot be persuaded to touch any
thing else" Name given by Postum

A member of temperance society
heard of man in the southern part

lance. "had driven him to drink" The
advocate decided to call on the inebri-
ate and his wife and to plead with him
to give up drink The evening she
called She did not find the topper at
home. but the temperance worker and
his wife talked on other topics. At
last she asked the woman If it was
true that her husband was driven to
drink.

The Student strike n Russia.


The university student In Russia,
with rare exceptions, belongs to the
liberal party. 1t seems to have be-
come tradition that the students at
titude should be strongly agains the
government. This is In large measure
explained by the fact that the student
class suffers more than any other
from the arbitrary regulations of the
police and censor. Each faculty IL
provided with its subinspector, and
his STAFF. At nrst l took these uni.
formed spies" for janitors, but after
ward learned that their duties con.
sisted simply in remembering the full
name OF each student, In getting &C.
| quainted,. as far as possible. with the
voices OF those who seemed to be the
leaders, in order to recognize them
even from behind closed doors. In
the gymnasia. corresponding to our
high and preparatory schools, the re.
gulations are even more strict than
In the universities, and there is nc
evidence Of organized protest. Like
wise, on leaving the university, the stu.
dent finds himself struggling against
The bureaucratic machine, and grad.
ually submits and accepts it as in
svitable. There is a small conserva.
tive element In the student body, but
It does not form an opposition party
and can be disregarded, since 1t ex-
! erts little or no influence on the gen
eral trend of student activities.-The

What a Diplomat is.

Referring to the recent banquet

very curious. Diploma" a doubling

ItaIu,s Industrial Advance.

Not many people in the United
States are fully aware of how rapidly
Italy is advancing in industrial impor
lance. In some way northern Italy
has in the last ten years shown as
promising development in an indus.
trial way as is to be found anywhere
in Europe. The never-failing water
supply of the snow-topped mountains
is being utilized by the electrical en-
gineers in way which promises to
convert northern Italy into great in.
dustrial state. Nowhere in Europe is
there a population better fitted to aid
in an industrial development. The
people are dexterous. quick to learn
and Industrious, and UP to the present
time the general wage scale compares
favorably with that of any competitors
which they have to meet. The result
of these favorable conditions has been.
for instance, the development of the
silk industry at rate which sounds
like statistics of American indus.

Wealthy Youth Devote Themselves t
Useful Pursuits,


"The secret of Japan's wonderful
success" said a globe trotter, lies,
perhaps, in this: Whereas, the richest
and best born and most powerful of
other nations young men give them
selves over to frivolity and idleness,
the flower of the young men of Japan
work, work, work. In the pleasure
cities of the world-at Monte Carlo,
in Paris, in Algiers, in Ostend, in
Cairo-you will find young grand
dukes from Russia, young baronets
and lords from England, all gambling
motoring, skiing, yachting, dining and
what not. But do you find among
them-I don't mean now only, but ever
have you ever seen among them any
of the young princes and earls and
millionaires of Japan? No, indeed
Those young men have been working
in our universities, working in oul
machine shops, working in our chemi
cal Notwithstanding, working.
How well this speaks for Japan's
future! What warning it is to the
rest of the nations of the world! Fol
If this noble energy continues in the
youth of Japan from the lowest tt
the highest one of two things viii
happen-either Japan will far outstriI
the other nations or else the Other
nations young men, too, from the low
est to the highest, will have to aban
don their sports and their designations
and turn themselves resolutely to la
Dor for the public good"

He Meant All Rioht,

In connection with the annual
spring exposition of the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Arts, which drew
only the other day to so successful a
close, Philadelphians are hearing a
story which is almost too good to be
true-though it arrives well vouched
for.
According to this the young and de-
cidedly pretty wife of one of the I'M
successful applicants for admission to
the gallery's walls called upon GER
tain highly talented and well known
member of the jury to plead her hus-
bands cause. She was sincere; she
was eloquent; the great mans heart
was touched-but what could he do,
for he remembered only too well the
huge and glaringly colored canvas
which had been turned down. AT
asst he said:
Madam, go back and tell your good
husband that when he will send us in
picture as small and as charming
as pretty and well painted, as you

Kings Gift a Forqery.

One OF the four pictures presented
by the Prince of Wales to the pro-
posed National Gallery for Ireland is
reported to, be forgery.
The statement Is made on the au-
thority of the Belfast correspondent
Of Lloyd's Weekly News of London.
1t will be remembered that his
Royal Highness offered the pictures
during his recent visit to Ireland, and
it is one of the landscapes, said to be
by Corot, which is now declared to be
q forgery.
Indignation has been aroused in
Glasgow by recent swindles in co.,
nection with the sale of pictures.
Many spurious works, bearing the In
ltials or signatures Of popular dead
painters, have been sold at high
prices.
Complaint Is also made Of the "fak-
