Bert Dole. who has been bOok-keep-
er in the Bank OF Belaire for year or
more, has resigned his position TO ac-
cept a similar one in the bank at East
Jordan, where more Of the ~ rk will
fall upon his shoulders and the Oppor-
tunities for advancement are much
greater in consequence. Sickles, Tif-
fany & Co., his employers in the hank
at this place, unhesil atingly recon-
mended Mr.. Dole for the position in
the East Jordan bank. He goes To
East Jordan today to enter upon his
duties B,rt Dole has lived all his
life in BelIaire, has grown up ough
the schools and gone to Albion college

reports as To ability and character
whether from the ball ground, the
school rnom, or the bank into which
he entered upon returning from col.

from his business connections at East

missed in musical AID society circles

'0 AND HIS MOTOR CAR.
& Of Spain Badly Afflicted With
the Craze.

Jerome Hart tells of the enthusiasm
Shown by King Alphonso of Spain for
the automobile: He is affected with
an acute case of motOrmania. He
spends most of his time, both at Ma
grid and at San Sebastian, in wildly
careerlng across the country in motor
cars. He owns several high-power
French automobiles, and when in
them, like Jehu the son of Nimshi,
he driveth fast and furiously. In fact
so reckless is his driving, SO numerous
are his accidents, that the queen moth,
er recently became alarmed and urged
him to abandon his dangerous sport.
Failing in this, she got a member of
the cOrtes to father a law imposing
limitations on the kings speed. This
did not mean limitations as to speed
on the kings highway-it meant limi-
tations on the speed of the king on the
kings highway. But this projected
law aroused the Indignation of some
courtly legislators in the cortes, and
they opposed it bitterly. The king,
tley said, is above the law, therefore,
to pass laws leveled at the king would
be against the law. Before this puzzle
the perplexed cOrtes recoiled and the
law was not passed.
The young king only recently sue
ceeded in SO far overcoming the queen.
mothers repugnance to motor cars
that he persuaded her to accompany
him in little drive. 1t was unfortu.
rate that on her first experiment with
him as mOtOriSt the king should
have had one of his frequent mishaps.
But he did. He came a cropper, and
1t was a royal cropper.
His enormous machine going at
high speed, skidded and capsized, hurl.
ing its royal freight some distance
into a ditch. The queen-mother was
badly scared, her royal feathers and
royal temper were much rumpled but
she was unhurt."

GREAT CHANGE
From Change In Food,

The brain depends much more OF
the stomach than we are apt to sup
pose until we take thought in the mat
ter. Feed the stomach on proper foot
easy to digest and containing the
proper amount Of phosphates and the
healthy brain will respond to all de-
mands. A. notable housewife in Buff
falo writes:
THE doctor diagnosed my trouble
as a nervous affection Of the stom.
ach.' was actually so nervous that
l could not sit still for Ave minutes
to read the newspaper, and to attend
to my household duties was simply
impossible. i doctored all the time
with remedies, but medicine did no
good.

of diet, and l tried many kinds of
cereal foods. but none of them agreed
with me. was almost discouraged,
and when tried Grape-Nuts did so
with many misgivings-I had no faith
that 1t would succeed where every.
thing else had failed.
But 1t did succeed, and you don't
know how glad am that tried it.

mind Is SO clear that my household

There's a reason.
Now why was this great change
made in this woman?
The stomach and the brain had not
een supplied with the right kind of
God to rebuild and strengthen the
erve centers in these organs. It is
bsolute folly to try to do this with
ledicine. There is but one sure way
nd that is to quit the old food that
