HOW MANY OF US?
Fail to Select Food Nature Demands
to Ward Off Ailments.

A Ky. lady, speaking about food,
says: L was accustomed to eating
all kinds of ordinary food until, for
some reason, indigestion and nervous
prostration set in.
After | had run down seriously my
attention was called to the necessity
of some change in my diet. and dis
continued my ordinary breakfast and
began using Grape Nuts with a good
quantity of rich cream.
In few days my condition
changed in remarkable way, and /
began to have strength that | had
never been possessed of before. a
vigor of body and poise of mind
that amazed me. 1t was 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
gle pains in the chest.
Since using Grape-Nuts alone for
breakfast 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 | needed the warning the
old trouble would come back, but
when | 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

Nothing Succeeds Like "EGG-O-SEE."
The man who breaches the best
sermon; the man who tells the fun
niest stories; the man who keeps the
best store, or the man who makes
the best goods, soon finds that people
come to him. Merit is the best adj
vertisement in the world. People
speak well of things they know are
good. They pass the good word
along.
The best breakfast food is "EGG-O.
SEE, for it contains all the life-giv-
ing properties of natures best food,
which is Wheat.
EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt TO
the thousands of wives and mothers
who use it in their homes, for these
good women tell their neighbors about
this great food
Children and aged persons alike
are friends of EGG-O-SEE.
Merit and common sense are things
that advertise EGG-O-SEE most.
EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10-cent pack
age contains ten liberal breakfasts.
EGG-O-SEE is sold everywhere.
Grocers must keep it if they want
to keep their good customers, for good
customers insist on buying EGG-O-
SEE.
The fact that no preparation, no
cooking, is required. makes EGG-O-
SEE very popular. Open the pack
age; put in as much as you like in
a dish; pour on milk or cream and
eat. 1t is delicious. 1t is wholesome.
1t makes you strong.
A lot of interesting facts about
EGG-O-SEE have been published in

THE CORNISH TIN DEPOSITS.
Great English Industry Still Capable
of Big Production.

Though the Cornish tin deposits
have been worked from the dawn Of
history, experts hold that vast guam
titles are still to be found in this
metalliferous soil. In the past twenty
years Cornwall has been badly hit by
the development of tin mining in the
Straits Settlement The fall in the
price of the metal caused the closing
of many of the Cornish mines, and
incidentally led to the migration of
Cousin Jacky," as the Cornish miner
is known, to every quarter of the
globe. 1t seemed indeed as if mining
IN the duchy had received blow
from which it could by no possibility
recover. A few mines managed to
survive, notably Dolcoath which
earned modest profit even in the
lean years when tin varied between
ESQ and G70 per ton. With the
metal nearly treble that price, it is
not surprising that spectators and
prospectors are turning avid eyes to
this westernmost county.
The enhanced price of tin is likely
to be permanent, for it is due to
natural, not artificial, causes Tin is
the rarest of all the metals, and the
worlds consumption has now out.
grown the supply. The worlds pro.
duction has averaged, in recent years.
$4,000 tons, of which more than one
half has come from the Straits Set
Elements About $4,000 tons per an
mum come from the Dutch East In,
dies; 5000 tons from Cornwall; s..
600 tons from Australasia, and a
similar quantity from Bolivia. Tin is
scarcely found at all in Europe or in
the United States

The Ane Of cad

We are wont to speak of this era
as the age of iron" and there is no
gainsaying that, industrially speaking,
iron is precious metal"
Nevertheless, few people realize
how useful if not absolutely neces-
sary, to modern civilization, is that
other metal, lead. Soft, yielding,
pliable, it is not much like it's sister
metal, but those distinguishing quail
ties are what give it such a prominent
place in the arts and industries.
Modern plumbing, requiring many
turnings and twistings, but withal
tight joints, would be almost impos-
sible without lead pipe. The great
est ciyilizing agent in the world-the
printing arts absolutely dependent
on lead. Hand-set type, linotype
"slugs," monotype type - all are
made of compositions of which lead
is the chief component-to say moth
ing of the bearings in the presses as
well as all other kinds of machinery
in which "babbitt" metal is used.
Solder is another lead product
what field of usefulness that one
form opens up.
Then there is the most important
use of all to which lead is put-paint,
that necessary material which keeps
our houses looking pretty inside
and out-and preserves them from
decay.
How many Of us thank metallic lead
for the comforts of paint? Yet the
best house paint is nothing but me-
tallic lead corroded by acid to white
powder known as white lead" OF
course, there are many limitations of
white lead" some of which are sold
as white lead and some which are
offered by the name of ready-pre-
pared paint under the familiar pre-
tense that they are Gust as good" as
white lead. But all good paint is
made of the metal, lead, corroded and
ground to a fine white powder and
mixed with linseed oil.
White lead is also used in the coat
ing of fine oil cloths and for many
purposes besides paint.
"Red lead" is another product of
metallic lead and is what is known as
an oxide of lead, being produced by
burning the metal. Red lead is the
best paint known to preserve iron,
steel or tin, and is used largely in
painting metal structures, such as
skyscraper skeletons, mills and
bridges.
There are many other products of
the metal lead, such as litharge,
orange mineral, ETC., which are es-
sential to many of the arts in which
we never imagine that lead would be
of the least use.
Verify, we live in an age of lead
as we'll as of iron.

EDWARD AND HIS CLOTHES.

Averages Two Suits a Week, Not
Counting His Uniforms.
King Edwards tailors have a stand
ing order to provide him with about
900 suits a year, exclusive Of military
uniforms and court costumes
These suits cost between $50 and 800
each, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The King selects cloth and patterns
and is said to make his selections so
rapidly that in ten minutes he will
choose $1,000 worth Of clothes When
the King has selected a certain cloth
the tailor uses it for no other custo-
mer. His hour for a seance with the
tailor it II A. NJ, and he is said to be
a marvel of puntuality. He is also a
pretty good lightning change artist for
a mere monarch. He gets out of and
into his clothes with extreme despatch,
There is only one other man in the
world, William, the Second to None
who possesses more uniforms than
King Edward. The Kaisers outfit, is
said, includes 1000 Of them. But the
Kaiser delights in donning gorgeous
costumes
King Edwar wears them only when
the exigencies of the King business
demand that he should make a show
of himself. He is however, most par
ticular about what might be called the
official part Of his outfit.
He has an inventory made once a
month of his uniforms in stock accom-
panied by a carefully prepared of their
condition. They are never allowed to
get shabby. The slightest blemish on
uniform condemns it and 1t becomes
the perquisite of the superintendent of

Still larger.
When there are big functions on
hand the King sometimes is obliged to
make d oxen changes a day and he
never puts on fewer than three differ
ent daily.
The statement made that he never
wears the same suit twice is erroneous
He does make it rule to wear the
same suit twice on consecutive days.
As are most stout men he is hardest
on his trousers. Because he will not
tolerate the suggestion of wrinkle in
his neither garments, he rarely wears a
pair of trousers more than three or
four times. In this way he gets
through quite 100 airs in the course
of year.
He is particularly extravagant with
regard to overcoats. He INDUCES in a
great variety of headgear, and his ex-
periments in hats and caps from time
to time have resulted in popularizing
no less than seven distinct varieties.

HYsTBR1cAu SHORT LEG.


"A curious case of "hysterical short
leg"-to use a Doctors descriptive
phrase--has recently been admitted in
to special hospital in central Lon
don.
The patient, a lad of Is, appeared to
have one leg couple of inches shorter
than the other After some months
treatment on the south coast he was
brought to London orthopedic hospi-
tai Leg splints were used with the
idea of extending the limb, but when
the patient was placed under chloro-
form his leg SUDDENLY normal position
The only explanation was that the
lad. who mentally deficient, had by
contracting the muscles Of the leg,
caused the appearance of a Shortened
limb. He was removed to a hospital
which treats mental cases. In the
ward he was told to leave his bed and
run to the fireplace and back. The lad
burst into tears and declared he could
not do it. The point was insisted upon
and the patient staggered pathetically
to the fireplace and started to come
back when he fell Unfortunately, for
the short leg theory, he fell on the
wrong side, and the bogus nature OF
his alleged defect was made even more
apparent than before.
He stolidly refused tou Sc his leg
naturally, however in spite of the ex-
posure. t,+.-...-.
IA fellow of the Royal College of Sur
geons said yesterday: This assump-
ton of bodily defects is not altogether
unusual and is form of hysteria. A
contraction of the muscles and a tilt
ing of the pelvis, and the thing is
done It is due to morbid desire to
excite sympathy and attract attention,
I have known of cases where serious
wounds have been inflicted by patients
suffering from hysteria with the same
