A Proper Distinction.

Here is a story that the Rev. Mox-
ON of Springfield tells of John Fiske,
which illustrates his frankness:
1t seems that one day his wife had
to report to him that their son had
been guilty of calling Mrs. Jones. a
neighbor. fool and Mr.. Jones a much
worse fool.
Prof. Fiske sent for the youngster,
and when he appeared in the library
said to him sternly: my son. is It
true that you said Mrs. Jones was a
fool?"
Hanging his head the boy replied:
"Yes, father. l did"
And did you call Mr.. Jones worse
fool?"
yes, father"
After a moments reflection the fam
Gus historian said slowly: We'll, my
son. that is just about the distinction
should make. Boston Record.

IN TIE JUNGLE

An Englishwoman travelling with her
husband in India passed an entire
night in the top of tall tree. waiting
for her husband to get shot at a pan
ther. She describes the experience in
the Pail Mall Gazette:
Toward 1 O'Clock we were certainly
getting drowsy. when we were both
startled out of our sleep by hearing tile
most fearful snarls and yel.s coming
from just below our tree. My husband
was peerlng out in an instant but only
Just in time TO see two large animals.
fighting hard. disappear into the
shadows of the trees. In the difficult
light of the moon we had not time to
see for certain what animals they
were. but 1t looked and sounded like a
panther driving off pig.
Whether what l had seen was the
panther or not l do not know, but
dark shadow passed beneath us. and
there, right opposite us on the bank,
with his white chest cleaning in the
moonlight, sat large panther.
my husband got his rife into posi-
ton and fired, and the panther rolled
over with a growl. In minute, with
another low growl, he rolled over again
into clump of tall grasses just at the
bottom of the bank. and remained quite
still. He was completed hidden from
us, and we could only watch the place
and wait Hardly had we got settled
when cracking came on the dry
leaves under the tree. and hyena ap-
peared- He stopped a few yards from
the clump of grass in which the pan
ther lay. and began baying. If 1t was
intended as challenge it had the de-
sired result. for in minute we heard
savage growl come from the long
grass, and quicker than my eye could
follow in the uncertain light the pan
ther had sprung out upon the hyena.
And now how can l describe that
awful tussle? Snarls. howls and fierce
growls all horribly mixed as those two
fearful animals fought. The panther,
we could see, was severely wounded:
in fact, one shoulder appeared quite
useless, and soon it seemed probable
that the hyena would get the best of it.
when suddenly the two animals parted
few yards, and lay gasping and pant
ing on the ground.
my husband awaited himself of this
chance of a shot. and with the report
that rang out like cannon the hyena
bolted and the panther rolled over on
his side. Being now certain that he
would never move again, my husband
called to me to come down, but this
was no very easy matter, as somehow
my knees felt most curiously feeble.

FROM SAME BOX
Where tho Foods Come From.

Look here. waiter, honest now.
don't you dip every one of these faxed
breakfast foods out of the same box?"
well. yes. boss, we duz, all 'cept
Grape-Nuts, cause that don't look like
the others and people know 'zackly
what Grape-Nuts looks like. But
there's bout a dozen different ones
named on the bill of fare and they are
all thin rolled flakes SO 1t don't make
any difference which one a man calls
for, we just take out the order from
one box"
This talk led to an investigation.
Dozens of factories sprung up about
three years ago, making various kinds
of breakfast foods. seeking to take the
business of the original prepared
breakfast food-Grape-Nuts. These
concerns after a precarious existence,
nearly all failed. leaving thousands of
boxes of their foods in mills and ware
houses. These were in several In
stances bought up for song by spec
ulators and sold out to grocers and
hotels for little or nothing. The proc
ess OF working of this old stock has
Dtcu SlOW. Out Will DEC luC haAhND
on menus OF faxed foods that went
out of business year and half or
two years ago. In few cases where
the abandoned factories have been
bought up. there is an effort to resus-
citate the defunct, and by copying the
style OF advertising of Grape-Nuts,
seek to influence people to purchase.
But the public has been educated to
the fact that all these thin faxed
foods are simply soaked wheat or oats
rolled thin and dried out and packed.
They are not prepared like Grape
Nuts, In which the thorough baking
and other operations which turn the
starch part of the wheat and barley
into sugar, occupy many hours and re-
suit In a food SO digestible that small
infants thrive on It, while 1t also con-
tains the selected elements OF Phos-
phate OF Potash and Albumen that
unite in the body to produce the soft
gray substance In brain and nerve
centers. There's a reason for Grape
Nuts, and there have been many imi-
tations, a few OF the article itself, but
many more OF the kind and character
Of the advertising. Imitators are al
ways counterfeiters and their printed
and written statements cannot be ex-
pected to be different than their
goods.
