Il was raised in the South, where
hot biscuits, griddle-cakes, pies and

meal, and by the time I located in

from Indigestion and its attendant
ills-distress and pains after meals,
an almost constant headache, dull,
heavy sleepiness by day and sleep
lessness at night, loss of flesh, impair

Il was rapidly becoming incapaci-

friend suggested change in my diet,
the abandonment of heavy, rich stuff
and the use of Grape-Nuts food. l fol-
lowed the good advice and shall al
ways be thankful that | did so.
Whatever may be the experience
of others. the beneficial effects of the
change were apparent in my case al
most Immediately. My stomach,
which had rejected other food for so
long, took to Grape-Nuts most kindly;

gone, began to sleep BEAUTIFULLY and

DANGERS OF FOOTBALL.
1t Can Only Be Properly Played BY
Gentlemen.

Football has always been gentle
tleman can be trusted to play the game
honorably and fairly and with due re-
gard for the rights of his opponents
The spirit of the "slugger," in football,
is the spirit of the thug and the as
sassin, and it is just as criminal to
kick an opposing player in the back.
or jump on his body, or foul him IN
someother way, for the purpose of
winning the game or retaliating for
some unintentional injury, as it would
be to sandbag him in an alley to get
his watch and pure or to avenge an
injury.
The number of accidental injuries in
football is not large enough to warrant
giving up a game that possesses most
valuable training features, which are
not possessed by any other game. But
the number of injuries that arise from
malice, or passion, or brutal indiffer-
ence to the rights of other players and
the courtesies of the game, is sufficient
to warrant the demand that the game
shall be played better, or not at all.
No game can be "just as good as
football" unless it makes the demands
upon self-control. courage. strength
and endurance that football makes
Football is game that should be
played by gentlemen. or it should not
be played at all No boy has learned

he has learned self control

Fine Paris Square
Place de la Concorde Rightly Called
Most Splendid in All Earths Cities
Especial correspundence.)

The first distinguishing feature OF
Paris to impress Itself on a majority
OF the thousands of travellers from
every land who annually visit that
peerless city. doubtless is the Place
de la Concorde. Not only is 1t the
largest square in the city, but the
finest in the world. Its location. its
spaciousness, and the harmony of
the architecture in the buildings near
it, make it at once grand. beautiful
and restful.
The square contairt nearly twenty
acres of space, not counting the
grounds of avenues. gardens and ap-
rroaches about it. From its center
may be had an urban view unparal-
leled in extent and beauty. On the
north the vista OF a splendid CONNER
cial street ends at the noble Grecian
portico of the church of the Mede-
laine. Side by side are seen twin
palaces housing governmental depart
ments. Eastward are the famed gar
dens of the Tuileries palace, ending,
half mile away, at the palace of the
Louvre, which survived intact when
all but a fragment of the Tuileries
crumbled before the incendiary
torches of the Commune.
Past the south side of the great
square flows the river Seine, spanned
at this point by handsome masonry
bridge, at the far end of which is
the building of the legislative assem-
bly,, shown near the center of this
view. In the distance. to the right,
is seen the dome of the Invalldes,
under which is the tomb of Napoleon.
Westward stretches the famous ave-
uuo of the Elysian Fields-the
Champs Elysees-the finest of its
kind. crowned, a mile and half off,
at the summit of slight hill, by Ma.
poleon's majestic Arch of Triumph
Famous City Monuments.

the square are monuments to the

Nowhere in Paris is there a better
place to study the life of the streets
than in the Place de la Concorde
Here one sees "all Paris" that
strange unit which embraces every
element in its social fabric. Through
the square pass prince and pauper.
