81 Boxes of Gold
300 Boxes of Greenbacks
For the most words made
up from these letters

331 people will earn these prizes

Around the Preside or about the
ing the winter evenings the children
and grown-ups can play with their
wits and see how many words can be
made.
20 people making the greatest num-
Der of words will each receive little
box containing $1,000 gold piece.
10 people will each win one box con-
tanning $500 gold piece.
900 people will each win box con
tanning $1.00 in paper money and one
person who makes the highest number
of words over all contestants will re-
ceive box containing $4,000 in gold.
1t is really most fascinating bit of
fun to take up the list evening after
evening and see how many words can
be added.
A few rules are necessary for abso-
lutte fair play.
Any word authorized by Webster's
dictionary will be counted, but no
name of person. Both the singular
and plural can be used, as for instance
grape" and grapes"
The letters in "Y-LO-Grape-Nuts
may be repeated in the same word.
Geographical names authorized by
Webster will be counted.
Arrange the words in alphabetical
classes, all those beginning with A to-
gether and those beginning with e to
come under e, etc.
When you are writing down the
words leave some spaces in the A, E.,
and other columns, to I'll in later as
new words come to you, for they will
spring into mind every evening.
1t is almost certain that some con-
testants will tie with others. In such
cases a prize identical in value and
character with that offered in that
class shall be awarded to each Each
one will be requested to send with the
list of words plainly written letter
describing the advantages of Grape
Nuts, but the contestant is not re-
quired to purchase a pkg. These let
tiers are not to contain poetry, or fancy
fiourishes, but simple, truthful state
ments of fact. For illustration: A
person may have experienced some
incipient or chronic ails traceable to
unwise selection of food that failed to
give the body and brain the energy.
health and power desired. Seeking
better conditions change in food is
made and Grape-Nuts and cream used
in place of the former diet. Suppose
one quits the meat, fried potatoes,
starchy, sticky messes Of half-cooked
oats or wheat and cuts out the coffee.
Try, say, for breakfast a bit of fruit, a
dish of Grape-Nuts and cream, two
soft-boiled eggs, a slice of hard toast
and a cup of Postum Food Coffee.

faint away on that" but, my dear
friend, we will put dollars to your pen

A banker had a jackdaw that was
interested in croquet AS soon as the
bird heard the click of the balls he
would swoop down and watch the
g'me attentively from a hedge And
Wen the players stopped the jack

A Philadelphia elephant is fond of
cakes. Often when cake is thrown
to him 1t will lodge under the bar of
his house in such a way that neither
he nor the thrower can reach it. In
this dilemma the elephant always puts
his trunk down near the cake and
blows it out upon the floor, whence
the thrower may again heave it,

The Bethlehem Steel Co.'s Plant Badly
Damaged Last Night
Associated rrcs Dispatch by Special Wires
South Bethlehem. Pa, Feb. 26.-The
general office building and part of No 3
machine shop of the Bethlehem Steel Co.
were destroyed last night by one Of the
most disastrous fires In the history Of tho
company, entailing n loss Of several hum
drcd thousand dollars Tho fire origi-
mated in the kitchen Of the cafe, on the
second floor of the office building, and so
rapidly did il spread that the building
was soon doomed, Notwithstanding tho
heroic efforts OF 500 frcmen.
The Office building was a four-story
brick and frame structure, 200 by 90 feet
in dimensions, built nearly 10 years ago.
Two stories were added to the building
within the last few years. On tho first
floor we're located the Offices of General
Superintendent Archibald Johnston and
his assistant, NJ A. Halliday. On tho
second floor were President n. NJ Nc
llvains Offices and a cafe for officials and
employees The third floor contained a.
telephone exchange, and on the fourth
floor were large drafting rooms, in tho.
vaults OF which were kept valuable de-
signs for military equipment and other
products Of the works. The vaults,
crumbled in the blaze, and all their valu-l
able contents were destroyed
Efforts we're made early today 10 open
temporary offices in other buildings at
the works until the new office building, on
Third street, is completed.
