GREAT CHANGE
From Change in Food.

The brain depends much more on
pose until we take thought in the mat
ter. Feed the stomach on proper food
easy to digest and containing the
proper amount Of phosphates and the
healthy brain will respond to all de-
mands. A notable housewife In Buff

ach.' | was actually so nervous that

good.

cereal foods, but none of them agreed
with me. | was almost discouraged,
and when l tried Grape-Nuts / did so
with many misglvings-I had no faith

me so, never notice now, and my
mind is so clear that my household
duties are real pleasure"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich.
There's a reason.
Now why was this great change
made in this woman?
The stomach and the brain had not
been supplied with the right kind of
food to rebuild and strengthen the
nerve centers in these organs. It is
absolute folly to try to do this with
medicine. There is but one sure way
and that is to quit the old food that
has failed and take on Grape-Nuts
food which is more than half digested
in the process OF manufacture and la
rich in the phosphate of potash con-
tanned in the natural grain, which
unites with albumen and water-the
only three substances that will make
up the soft gray filling in the thou
sands of delicate nerve centres in the
brain and body. Grape Nuts food Is =
sure road back to health in all such
canes.

FAULTS OF THE MISTRESS.
Not Always as considerate az She
Might Be.


The capable mistress is generally
the most considerate, and there. is no
question but that she is the strongest
factor in the production of whatever
good service is given in the household
to-day, writes Jane Seymour Klink, ir-
the Atlantic. Nevertheless. she Is
sometimes inconsiderate, and in this
way: She can turn off work" SO
quickly herself that she often forgets
others have not the same faculty.
Girls in new place are often slow
just because they are so nervously
anxious to please. A capable, mistress,
impatient because things are not NOV.
ing so rapidly as she knows they can
move, does not always give a maid
the two weeks trial, by which she
could do herself justice. Again, the
capable mistress comes into the htch
en- to make cake. Everything Is
ready to her hand. and she whisks
up the cake in few minutes, telling
Jane to bake 1t carefully. She goes.
up stairs and contrasts her quickness
with James slowness, forgetting that
she had neither placed things in readi-
ness, nor cleared them away, neither
superintendent the baking.
