The parish church of Chertsey pos
sesses a curious anomaly, II has sew
eral pews in its gallery which are
bought and sold by auction. just like
a table or a chair, and these pews give
their owners for the time being a Legal
right to vote at parliamentary cleo
tons in the division. Moreover, the
owners of the pews have to pay the
poor rate Of G2 a year into the bar
gain-a privilege they are not SO eager
TO use as the former one. Many years
ago the church wardens OF Chertsey
were at theier wits end in order to
raise money for the restoration and
repair of the sacred edfce, and they
could find no solution to the question
until some parishloners suggested
that they should sell the gallery pews
to the highest bidder. They accepted
the idea and obtained a special act
Of parliament allowing them to do this
and also giving the privilege of a par.
liamentary vote. A pew was recently
sold at Tokenhouse Yard for $50.

Clerk Churchill smiled.
That's the first complaint of its kind
I've ever had here" he said, "There
are comparatively few cats in Denver,
but IL you would live absolutely with
out any chance of being awakened by
cats you should move mp TO Leadville,"
"T.eadville? Why?' asked Nally.
Because" replied the clerk, Lead
vile has no cats. They cannot live
there. Too much altitude, MS we say
around here
And such is the case. Leadville
probably hasn't a single cat, Cats have
been taken there many times, but they
have invariably Succumbed 10 the eff
fects of the high altitude, l.eadyille Is
II 400 feet above the sea level
The cats that have been taken TO
Leadville have all died of n form Of
pneumonia. At first they enjoy the air,
or seem TO, but they gradually become
weak and finally catch cold. Its nine
lives then avail the cat nothing. All
the lives 90 out at once.
About year ago the family OF
Henry Blaine moved from Denver to
Leadville, taking along Il cat and three
kittens. The old cat died within II
month after it reached the mining
town, but the kittens lived until they
were six months old, and then went the
way of their mother.
The little Blaines took the loss of
their kittens so much to heart that
their father brought two more from
Denver for them. These kittens lived
less than three months, The Blaines
then gave up trying to have cats as
pets.
Although Leadville has no cats, 1t
has few mice and rats, Only the most
hardy Of rodents can live there, and
then they must live under the ground

Now let all these choice specimens
take notice
We will deposit one thousand or
fifty thousand dollars to be covered by
like amount from them, or any one Of
! them, and if there was ever one ounce
Of old bread or any other ingredient
different than our selected wheat and
barley with little salt and yeast used
in the making Of Grape-Nuts, we will
lose the money.
Our pure food factories are open at
| all times to visitors, and thousands
pass through each month, inspecting
every department and every process.
Our factories are so clean that one
could, with good relish, eat meal
I from the floors.
The work people, both men and wo
men, are Of the highest grade in the
State of Michigan, and according to the
State labor reports, are the highest paid
| in the State for similar work.
Let us tell you exactly what you will
see when you inspect the manufacture
of Grape Nuts. You will find tremen-
dous elevators containing the choicest
wheat and barley possible to buy.
These grains are carried through long
conveyers to grinding mills, and there
converted into flour. Then the ma
chimes make selection of the proper
quantities of this -four in the proper
proportion and these parts are blended
into general -four which passes over
to the big dough mixing machines, there
water, salt and little yeast are added
and the dough kneaded the proper
length of time.
Remember that previous to the bar
! ley having been ground it was passed
through about one hundred hours Of
soaking in water, then placed on warm
floors and slightly sprouted, developing
the diastase in the barley, which
changes the starch in the grain into a
form Of sugar.
Now after we have passed 1t into
dough and it has been kneaded long
enough, it is moulded by machinery
into oaves about Is inches long and
or 6 inches in diameter. 1t is put into
this shape for convenience in second
cooking.
These great loaves are sliced by ma
chinery and the slices placed on wire
trays, these trays, in turn, placed on
great steel trucks, and rolled into the
secondary ovens, each perhaps IS or St
feet long. There the food is subjected
to a long, low heat and the starch
which has not been heretofore trans
formed, is turned into form Of sugar
generally known as Post Sugar. 1t car
be seen glistening on the granules OF
Grape Nuts II held toward the light
and this sugar is not poured over oil
put on the food as these prevaricatorS
ignorantly assert. On the contrary the
sugar exudes from the interior Of eacl
little granule during the process OF
manufac cure, and reminds one of the
little white particles of sugar that come
out on the end Of hickory log after
II has been sawed off and allowed tc
stand for length of time.
