Missed Chance for Fame.

The astronomer, Lalande, narrowly
escaped being made famous by dis
coyery. He accidentally struck Ne3-
tune with his glass on May s. 11S5,
but supposed it was a star. He put ii
down in his notebook as a star and
recorded its exact situation. Two
days later he struck it once more and
made a record of it. But when he
looked over his notes he found he had
1t down as being in two different
places. and as a star cannot move in
As hours he supposed he had made
a mistake in one of his notes. If he
had used his mind lAtle less me-
chanically he easily might have been

cut Change Of Food Gave Final Relief.

Most diseases start in the aliment-
airy canal-stomach and bowels.
a great deal of our stomach and
bowel troubles come from eating too
much starchy and greasy food.
The stomach does not digest any OF
the starchy food we eat--white bread.
pastry, potatoes. oats. etc.-these
things are digested in the small intes-
tines, and If We eat too much. as most
OF us do. the organs that should d.
gest this kind of food are overcome
by excess of work, SO that fermenta-
ton. Indigestion, and a long train
of ails result.
Too much fat also is hard to digest,
and this is changed into acids. sour
stomach. belching gas. and a bloaty,
heavy feeling.
In these conditions a change from
indiSestible foods to GrapeNuts will
work wonders in not only relieving
the distress but in building up 2
strong digestion, clear brain and
steady nerves. A Wash. woman

The water for the Roman fountains
came through the mighty aqueducts
which stretched along the Campagna,
and of which ruins may to-day be seen
standing grim ana splendid against

The Emperor AgTippa alone built
700 fountains. decorating 400 OF them

There is a quaint little tale connect

rejoicing In Siena. for 1t was the first
largo conduit to be brought into the
city, and the people were wild with
Joy. So much joLity and gayety went
on over the affair that they named it
the Fonta Gaia.
Just at this time there was dug up
near the city wonderful statue ot
pagan goddess and the people raised
the statue which was ravishingly
beautiful. to stand above the fountain
That year men said the evil eye had

Forthwith they removed the beau

bore it outside the city gates. Then,
desiring to place ii where ii would ID
