Il am literary man whose nervous energy is a great pael of my stock ill trade. and ordinarily have little pa tience with breaktasl foods and the extr&yaSant claims made of them. But cannot withhold my acknowledge ment of the debt tha l owe To Grape Nuts food.
 T discovered long ago that the very bulkiness of the ordinary diet was not calculated to give one a clear head, the power of sustained. accurate thinking. 1 always fell heavy and sluggish in mind as well as body after eating the ordinary meal. which diverted the blood from the brain to the digestive apparatus.
 T tried foods easy of digestion. but found them usually cefeient in nutri- ment. eXperimcnted with many breakfast foods and they, too. proved unsatisfactory, till l reached Grape Nuts And then tfe problem was solved
 Grape Nuts agreed with me perfect ly from the beginning, satisfying my hunger and supplying the nutrimen' that so many other prepared foods lack.
 "I had not been using it very Ions before l found that l was turning ou an unusual quantity and quality o work. Continued use has demon stra,ed to my entire satisfaction tha Grape-Nuts food contains all the ele ments needed by the brain and nerv ous system of the hard working publi' writer" Name given by Postum Co. 1 Battle Greek.

The longest fence in the world
is probably that which has been
erected by a well known American
cattle company along the Mexican
border. It is seventy-fve miles in
length, and separates exactly for
its entire distance the two republics
of North America. The fence was
built to keep the cattle from run
ming across the border and falling
an easy prey to the Mexican cow
punchers. Although it cost a
great deal of money, it is estimated
that cattle enough will be saved in
one year to more than pay for
