Fail to Select Food Nature Demands
to Ward Off Ailments.

A Ky. lady, speaking about food,
says: ." was accustomed to eating
all kinds of ordinary food until, for
some reason, indigestion and nervous
prostration set in.
after l had run down seriously my
attention was called to the necessity
of some change in my diet, and I dis
continued my ordinary breakfast and
began using Grape-Nuts with a good
quantity of rich can
'In a few days my condition
changed in a remarkable way, and I
began to have a strength that had
never been possessed of before, a
vigor of body and a poise of mind
that amazed me. 1t vas entirely new
in my experience.
"My former attacks of indigestion
had been accompanied by heat flashes,
and many times my condition was dis
tressing, with blind spells Of dizziness,
rush of blood to the head and neural
gic pains in the chest.
"Since using Grape-Nuts alone for
breakfast l have been free from these
troubles, except at times when / have
INDUCED in rich, greasy foods in
quantity, then | would be warned by
a pain under the left shoulder blade,
and unless l needed the warning the
old trouble would come back, but
when l finally got to know where
these troubles originated I returned
to my Grape-Nuts and cream and the
pain and disturbance left very quickly.
Il am now in prime health as a re-
suit of my use of Grape-Nuts." Name

cine made me sicker. l couldn't taxi 1t
and l kept growing worse until a friend
advised me to take DR.. Williams Pink

"Cut out hot cream of tartar bis
cult used to be a common, everyday
remark among physicians when dis
cussing items of diet for their pa
tients. But alum baking powder bis
cults are never mentioned in this re-

who to-day continue to use the old

Swords Into a kIoW.

During the centennial celebration in
the Universal Peace union assembled
to celebrate the tenth anniversary Of
the foundation of the order.
A number Of officers and descend
ants of officers gave their swords to
be made into a pillow as a symbol Of
peace. The weapons were afterward
fashioned into a homely agricultural
implement, which, however, instead Of
being a plow, took the shape of the
ordinary field cultivator.
This %cultivator may now be seer in
the hall at Geneva, Switzerland. Over
it is an inscription giving the history
of the implement.

Harry Cline of Philadelphia Is gener-

that he Is not familiar with.
Charles Peterson. the St. Louis entry Is
regarded as a dangerous competitor West

other players surprise when he gets to
work.
Two OF the read old-timers who will COM
pete In the tournament are Edward Nc
