CHANGED HUSBAND.
Wife Made Wise Change in Food.

Change of diet is the only way to
really cure stomach and bowel trouble.
A woman says:
my husband had dyspepsia when we
were married and had suffered from it
for several years. 1t was almost inn
possible to find anything he could eat
without bad results.
"a thought this was largely due to
the use Of coffee, and persuaded him to
discontinue it. He did so, and began to
drink Postum Food Coffee. The change
did him good from the beginning, his
digestion improved; he suffered much
less from his nervousness, and when
he added Grape-Nuts food to his diet
he was soon entirely cured.
"My friend, Mrs - ---, Of Vicbs-
burg (Iny former home), had become
nervous wreck also from dyspepsia.
Medicines had no effect, neither did
travel help her. On my last visit home,
some months ago, persuaded her to
use Grape-Nuts food. She was in de-
SPAR, and consented. She stuck to it
until it restored her health so com
pletely that she is now the most enthu-
siastic friend of Grape-Nuts that /
ever knew. She eats 1t with cream or
dry, just as it comes from the package
keeps it In her room and eats 1t when
ever she feels like 1t.
II began eating Grape-Nuts food my
self when my baby was two months
old, and / don't know what / should
have done without it. My appetite was
gone, was weak and nervous and af-
forded but very little nourishment for
the child The Grape-Nuts food, Of
which soon grew very fond, speedily
set all this right again, and the baby
grew healthful rosy and beautiful as a
mother could wish He is two years
old now and eats Grape-Nuts food him
self. 1 wish every tired young mother
knew Of the good that Grape-Nuts
would do her"

The Smell Of cities.

long undeserved. for smells other
than that Of it's famous water" and
it has been said that in years Of old

Great Falr IS Predicted.

Captain Dudley M. Hughes, presi-
dent of the Georgia State Agricultural
Society, declares that the state fair
to be held in Atlanta from October
8 to rs will be the finest ever given
by the society. He says that the sum
of S44,500 offered to the society by
Atlanta for the fair is the largest ever
offered by any other Georgia city, the
nearest approach being the sum Of
$4,000.
Captain Hughes says that the fair
will be complete in every detail, and
altogether a credit to the south, the
state and Atlanta.
with a few exceptions practically
every county in the state will have
exhibits" said Captain Hughes.
These exhibits will be fine and com
plete in every detail. They will show
what the state is doing in the raising
of cattle, in the industries such as
manufacturing, in farm work, and, in
fact. in every branch of enterprise"
Captain Hughes seemed greatly
pleased that the fair would be helO
in Georgia's capital, and he declared
that Atlanta was the ideal city to
support such an exposition. He added
that he had been given cooperation
by the people of the state that was
extremely gratifying.
