REPAIRING BRAIN
a Certain Way by Food.

Every minister, lawyer, journalist,
physician, author or business man Is
forced under pressure of modern con-
ditions to the active and sometimes
overactive use of the brain.
Analysis of the excreta thrown out
by the pores shows that brain work
breaks down the phosphate of potash,
separating it from it's heavier compan-
ion, albumen, and plain common sense
teaches that this elemental principle
must be introduced into the body anew
each day, If we would replace the loss
and rebuild the brain tissue.
We know that the phosphate Of
potash, as presented in certain field
grains, has an affinity for albumen and
that is the only way gray matter in the
brain can be built. 1t will not answer
to take the crude phosphate of potash
Of the drug shop, for nature rejects it.
The elemental mineral must be pre-
sented through food directly from ma
lures laboratory.
These facts have been made use Of
in the manufacture of Grape-Nuts, and
any brain worker can prove the value
of the proper selection of food by maxi
ing free use of Grape Nuts for ten days
or two weeks. Sold by groCers every
where (and in immense Quantities).

THE FINAL WORD.

Just final word, brethren. about
the Union Labor Fair It's up to you
now. If it is a success organized labor
will be benefited beyond estimate. If
| it is a failure, it will take the unions
of this city d decade to live down the
disgrace. Failure simply means that
we are not what we claim to be- and
| the employers will have every reason
to believe that they have no reason to
be fearful of conflict if we ask for
shorter hours Or increased pay.
| Just look the situation sQuarely in
the face. Either we make good or We
stand exposed as lot of ''four-f1ush-
ers" who will lay down.
The other day the manager of the
fair was trying to interest merchant
and get him to make a display at the
fair.
| 20, you won't have any crowds" he
said, 80 why should 1 go to the ex-
pense of making an exhibit?
But we have 5000 unionists, many
of them married. and they will turn
out" said the manager.
Yes, they'll support the fair about
like they supported your labor candi-
dates last election day., the merchant
retorted.
That ended the conversation, for the
manager had nothing to say.
Now, what are you going to do about
bit? Going TO stay at home and depend
on somebody else to make the fair a
success, and then you jump in and
reap an equal share of the benefit
Or are you going to stay at home and
then, if a failure is scored, say: 20,
| knew it all the time, and I'm not to
blame"
Come to the front boys, and let us
show the dear public that our unionism
is something more than a mere card in
our pockets and a lot of hot air from
our lips.

me or walk, was his dictum-and the
people paid. But finally patience
ceased to be virtue and lot of en-
terprising business men got together,
organized the Citizens Street Railway

the people. President Scudder laughed
He had heard that sort of talk before
Suddenly the laugh died away into a
moan Material came piling in by the
train load, and the first thing Scudder
knew the Citizens Co. had a franchise,
had the material on hand and was
actually laying track. The new COM
pany was laying track, too, right into
the heart of a territory that Scudder
had long ignored. Then it dawned
upon Scudder that he wanted to build
there. to. So he began resorting to
the usual tactics of his kind. seeking
to delay if not to permanently halt the
building of the new lines He wouldnt t
build to the ball park, he wouldn't con-
tribute a cent to the support of the
game which meant hundreds of dol
