GOLF YARN BY LONGWORTH
And Kansas Story in Return by an
Enthusiast at the
Game.

Nicholas Longworth, of Ohio, is n
golf enthusiast who plays good game,
ana Victor Murdoch, of Kansas, a golf
enthusiast who plays a very indifrer-
ent game, when swapping stories in
the house cloakroom the other day,
says the Washington correspondent of
the Kansas City Times.
''rhe most remarkable golfer | ever
knew" said Representative Longworth.
was man out in Cincinnati, who had
a passion for the game, but who COM
rlicated that fervor with an appetite
for Scotch highballs that was the won
der of Ohio.
His theory was that there should
he a drink server on every tee, and
he worked it by means of an army of
caddies. One afternoon he came in
and announced that he had renounced
the game.
What's the matter, Jim?' said a
friend.
"'Oh,' he said, wearily, ITS no use.
Jail cat hit it: and whenever
can hit it | can't see it,
Mr.. Murdoch told this one:

district bench, is about the best golfer

on trial in which several small boys
had been subpoenaed as witnesses. Ad-

summers. Judge Dale solemniy in

ODD EATING CUSTOMS.

prazilians never eat when they
drink, nor drink when Trey eat; ani
the Tartars continually persist in pull
ing guest by the ear until he dr'nks.
Maldive islanders retire to the dark
est part of the houses and hang cur
taias about them. so that none CT
their fellowmen may see them at their
meal.
When they desire to show a mark
of great esteem. the negroes of Ardra
drink from the same cro at the same
time, and the King of Loango used
to eat and drink in two separate
houses.
The Philippine Islander will not eat
meal alone. Whenever a Filipino
finds himself without companlon
with whom to share his meal. he will
abstain from eating until he has
found one.
A strange custom prevails in KAN
chtaka, where man who wi-hss TO
entertain a guest invites him into a
temperature, and then presses him
with food until he is in state Of tor
por. Instances of men dying at these
orgies have been known.
The Tahitians, though a naturally
sociable race, dine separately. Even
the man and his wife do not eat to-
gehter. Each member of the fam ly
has his own food-basket. They take
their places about five yards apart.
and then, turning their backs to each
other, dine am'd y rrosound silence.

THE cADDY'S COMMENT.
One That Was Not Very Compliment
tary to Professional
Player.

Walter J. Travis, the golfer, set UP
his ball, and then made half do2er
swishes at the short grass with the
driver, relates the New YORK Tribune
Il am not in good FORM" he said, Il
am playing like a broker we had here
last week.
This broker played once around,
making dreadful exhibition of him
self. OF this, though, he was not
aware. He was doing pretty well for
him.
THE mans caddy was an unusually
quiet, stolid lad, a BOY with a freckled
face quite devoid of expression.
And since the caddy never once
laughed or sneered at his bad play,
the broker took fancy to him. And
he said at the end of the round, in
the hope of getting a compliment:
81 have been trave.ing for the last
six months. l am quite out OF prac-
tice. That is why | am in such bad
fern to-day
THE caddy replied, calmly:
Then ye've Played before, have

BUILDING FOOD
70 Bring the Babies Around.


When a little human machine Cor a
large one) goes wrong, nothing is so
important as the selection of food to
bring it around again.
My little baby boy fifteen months
old had pneumonia, then came brain
fever. and no sooner had he got over
these than he began to cut teeth and,
being so weak, he was frequently
thrown into convulsions," says Col
orado mother.
81 decided a change might help. so
took him to Kansas City for a visit.
When we got there he was so very
weak when he would cry he would
sink away and seemed like he would
die.
when / reached my sisters home
she said Immediately that we must
feed him Grape-Nuts and, although
had never used the food. we got some
and for a few days gave him just the
juice of Grape-Nuts and milk. He
got stronger so quickly we were soon
feeding him the GrapeNuts itself and
in a wonderfully short time he fat
tened right up and became strong and
well.
THAT showed me something worth
knowing and, when later on my girl
came, raised her on Grape-Nuts and
she is a strong healthy baby and has
been. You will see from the little
photograph I send you what strong,
chubby y6ungster the boy is now, but
he didn't look anything like that be-
fore we found this nourishing food.
Grape-Nuts nourished him back to
strength when he was so weak he
couldn't keep any other food on his
stomach" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
All children can be built to more
sturdy and healthy condition upon
Grape-Nuts and cream. The food con-
tains the elements nature demands
from which to make the soft gray
filling in the nerve centers and brain.
A well-fed brain and strong, sturdy
nerves absolutely insure healthy
body.
Look in pkgs. for the famous little
book, "The Road to Wellville."

DIETARY DICTA.

Dinner should be of a lighter nature
in summer than in winter.
A quart of wheat contains more nu-
triment than a bushel of cucumbers.
There is happy mean between eat
ing everything and being squeamish.
Two pounds Of potatoes contain as
much nutriment as 13 pounds OF
turnips.
Light soups, light desserts and light
meals should have the preference in

Vegetables and fruits are to be used
