BISHOP SATTERLEE'S
VIEWS ON DIVORCE
Z -------->
Makes Statement That OF All the Social Forces Which Are
Breaking Up the Home Life, the Greatest
Is Increase of the Evil.

The Right Rev. Henry Y. Satterlee.
bishop Of Washington dictated the fol-
lowing statement on the subject of ''Di-
yorce,'' 10 the New York World:
When the Constitution of the United
States was adopted our forefathers took
1t for granted that family life would
always he In America the robust and
heaitilfuI institution that 1t had been
all through the seventeenth and eight
zenith centuries.
AT that time IN the thirteen States
divorce was practically unknown, and z
dominant characteristic OF the American
people was the love of home and the
sturdy strength of the home bond IN
other countries the unit was the indi-
viduai; in America the unit of cfviliza-
ton was the American home
In 0lden Days.
This Anglo-Saxou characteristic
shines out transparently in all American
lterature-zin the poems written. In the
speeches of politicians. in the Fourth
of July orations. and the reason that
John Howard Payne's poem. Home,
Sweet Home" became so celebrated
throughout the length and breadth OF
the land was notion account of its poetic
merit, but because it struck chord
which vibrated in every place over
which the Stars and Stripes waved.
Since those days a great change has
come over the spirit of the American
people. Tnsensibly. they have come TO
regard the individual, not the family. as
the unit Of civilization, and the legisIa-
ton enacted in recent years has had
more regard for the rights of the in
dividuaI than for the protection of home
life

The scene of the first act is laid in the barn of David Brewer, and truer pie ture of farm life was never presented upon the stage.

The final act is in the kitchen of David Brewers. home. The production is an out and out American production, and has all the flavor of sentiment, pathos and drollery that made the novel famous. It is staged with view of conveying as completely as possible an idea of the spirit and beauty of the story, and the dramatists has done his part we'll. :- sE& .

New Haven Theater.

All lovers of high class meledrama with elaborate stage mountings to excite the eye will enjoy this production. The |play is universally acknowledged to be the best play of its kind ever written by a playwright.
 "The Peddler" contains a story abounding in the lights and shadows of laughter and tears, full of pure senti- ment and enobling example. The plot is of absorbing interest, and holds the spectator keyed up to the highest pitch of expectancy. The play is one of the biggest box office winners of the sea- son, and after all is said and done the box office really tells the story of suc- cess or failure.

HOW FOOD WORKS.
A Sure Way Out of Bowel Troubles.

So called 'septic appendicitis" will off, ten hang on for years. This is caused by white bread, potatoes and other forms of starchy food, that the individ- ual does not properly digest, and it is useless to attempt to make a perma- nent change by any form of drug, for all drugs "wear out and in time refuse to benefit where the cause of the dis turbance is not removed. 5 .- es
 Septic appendicitis is a general term for a diseased condition of the bowels caused from undigested starch, and, as stated above. It may go on for years; yet people must have starchy food.
 It is well established fact among physicians and individuals who have made the experiment., that when bowel disturbances are shown, a change in food must be made, and that the fam ous pre-digested food-Grape e-Nuts-is the most perfect remedy, for it contains no medicine of any sort, but it is made up of the selected parts of wheat and barley i'll which the starchy part has been changed into the form of sugar that is found in the human intestines after the starchy part of the food has been perfectly digested.
 When Grape-Nuts food is used in place of bread or any of the other forms Of starch, the body is supplied with the necessary elements already in the form of this sugar CknoWn as ."Post sugar") and is therefore ready for immediate assimilation for the first act of digestion has taken place outside of the body and during the process of manufacture.
 Absolute certainty of results can be depended upon and the disease relieved by this method.
 A prominent Missouri editor tells this cheerful story:
 .sFer three years suffered from sep- tic appendicitis, with all that involves. The aid of physicians was inadequate and the difficulty of finding food that would assinilate without great annoy ance in the region of the vermiform ap- pendix was fairly insurmountable until l struck Grape7Nuts.
 "Grape-Nuts I relish and digest com- fortably. They have not only proven to be most satisfying and nutritious food, but they have actually healed my ailment. I am, to-day, after several months use of Grape-Nuts, absolutely free from any disorder whatever in perfect health--and I attribute my strength Of mind and body to Grape Nuts" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Greek, Mich. .i@4 ..: T g,
