The Way It Goes.

Where the foaming breakers roar
Down beside the sandy shore,
There the sportive maiden sweet
Dips her dainty hands and feet,
Plunges In, a mermaid fair,
With the sun bleach on her hair,
Natures hue upon her skin.
For the swim she's strictly in.
In the autumn at the store
Where the busy traf11c's roar
Frets the ear. with worried mien
There the maid is daily seen
Buying drugs and lotions weird
That the freckles may be cleared
From her tanned and toughened skin,
For the social swim she's In.

McCorkill were assigned to the case.
Nearly all the goods taken were
from DIR. and Mrs. Powell's room on
! the second floor. The drawers of the

to be pitied. They are poor, veal

are really themselves objects OF char
ity, and their toll and lot are humil

are a little too sensitive about then
garb. 1t is no more sacred than the
plain homespun OF our country moth

right to initiate Them as TO dress n
the garb of a Quakeress or a Puritan

active, nervous work Of Americans
Careful investigation by experts in
food and diatetlcs has brought out tho
fact that albumcn which Is contained IN
various foods, Is acted upon by phosphate
Of potash, not such as obtained In drug
stores, but such MS is found In certain
parts Of the field grains IN most minute
particles, arranged IN Natures labora-
tory, not MANS
The part of tho grains containing phos-
phate OF potash Is used In the manufnc-
ture Of Grape-Nnts food therefore the
active, nervous, pushing brain worker can
feed tho body with food that goes
directly to tho rebuilding OF the brokcn-
down gray matter In the brain, solar
pleXus and nerve centres all over tho

who refreshcs ana rebuilds the body with
proper material OF this sort obtains n
definite result which no can feel and
