A FOOD CONVERT.


The pcrnicious habit some persons
still have OF relying on nauseous drugs
to relieve dyspepsia, keeps up the
pat@nt medicine business and helps
keep up the army Of dyspeptIcs.
Indigestion 49, dyspepsia lis caused
by what Is put into the stomach in
tke way OF improper food, the kind
chat so taxes the strength OF the d.
sestive organs they are actually Grip
pied.
When this state is reached, to resort
10 stimulants is like whipping Il tired
horse with big load. Every addi-
tional effort he makes under the lash
increases his loss OF power to move
the load.
Try helping the stomach by leaving
off heavy, greasy, indigestible food and
take on Grape Nuts-light, easily d.
gestAI, full of strength for nerves and
brain, in every grain of 1t. There's no
waste Of time nor energy when Grape
Nuts Is the food.
~ am an enthusiastic user OF Grape.
Nuts and consider 1t an ideal food,
writes Maine man:
81 had nervous dyspepsia and was
all run down and my food seemed to
do me but little good. From reading
an adv. / tried Grape-Nuts food, and
after a few weeks steady use OF 1t,
felt greatly improved.
Am much stronger, not nervous
now, and can do more work without
feeling SO tired, and am better every
way.
Il relish Grape-Nuts best with cream
and use four heaplng teaspoonfuls al
a meal. ! am sure there are thou

Republican Corruption.

One OF the Republican campaign

Washington with the expressed inten
ton Of making the government clerks
disgorge five per cent. of their annual
salaries As the cost of living is now

no greater pay than before the tariff
fostered trusts were created, this as
scssment for campaign purposes will.
come hard from the slender surplus
he clerks can save, after paying their
necessary expenses. The Republican
congressional campaign committee
however does not seem to care where
the money comes from so long as they
get enough OF IT, All is fish that
comes to their net. whether dollar
subscriptions, trust and corporation
contributions, and now the virtually
forced assessment of the office hold
era. What an enormous corruption
fund the Republican congressional
committee must have. But they will
need 1t all, for the rascals who sell
their votes will no doubt ask a big
price and the scoundrcls who buy
them will demand large percentage
for doing the dirty work,
Democrats should keep sharp
lookout for evidence of Republican
corruption and prosecute all who are
caught at 1t, without fear or favor.

of this year. A scientist, believing
that the fog had been caused by the
