BOY HAS SIXTH ENSE
Norwegian Lad Can Find Missing
People Through Mysterious Power.

Norwegian Lad Can Find Missing
People Through Mysterious Power.
A mysterious sixth sense which en-
ables him to find missing persons is
the power which is making John Floet-
tum, the 1~4-year-old son Of a small
farmer. an object Of curiosity and awe
throughout Norway.
One of his most remarkable successes
Is recorded by the Aftenposten to nave
Just taken place. A wealthy farmer
Of Glommen left home and could not
be found A search party Of seventy
men organized by the family secured
the surrounding country without find
ing any trace of the farmer. Then it
was decided to appeal to young Floet-
tum.
The youth was shown a photograph
Of b missing man. and Immediately
proceeded to draw a rough plan, indi-
eating a route through the district,
which he stated the farmer had taken.
Scores of the villagers then set out
and followed the plan, at the end of
WHICH, near q narrow river, the MISS
Ing mans handkerchief was found, but
no trace Of the man himself was visi-
bic.
On the following day the boy led
the search party. He entered a boat,
which was sailed along the river ac-
cording to his orders. He sat In the
stern with a vacant stare. apparently
oblivious. to his surroundings.
Suddenly he sprang to his feet, cry
ing: Here he lies"
The water was dragged and the body
or the missing man was found.
The boy is credited with dozens of
similar remarkable feats. and crowds
OF people are travelling from all parts
OF the country to see him.

sweet, crisp lettuce that you may eat

full Of lettuce seeds that have been
soaked overnight in alcohol, and 1 plant
them In a box containing three inches
OF loan and ~quicklime. 1 water this
soil, and In ten minutes the seeds
burst. In twenty minutes two tiny
leaves push through the earth. The
leaves grow and multiply. In an hour
they are as big as half dollars. Then
you may pluck and eat them. They
are delicious fairy salad.
Sometimes, when 1 give a dinner
party, / have one Of these little pre-
pared lettuce beds in the center of the
table. The guests see the lettuce grow,
and when the time comes for the salad
course, there is their salad blooming
before them, all ready for them to
pluck."-Chicago Inter Ocean

Plaited walking skirt.

The Climbing Rose.

The rose is not a natural climber 1t
can ramble over low shrubs, large
powders and such things, but when
grown about a veranda pillar it must
be artilcially supported by tying up
occasionally as it grows. This is more
satisfactory than ignoring it until the
end of the growing season. 1t is then
a hard job to straighten out the badly
tangled or twisted shoots, and the wind
is likely to break them when they are
very long.
Never let one shoot grow upright for
too long a period or get very far ahead
of the others. advises a writer in the
Garden Mazagine. If you do, the
strongest or leading shoot will receive
the greatest quantity OF the sap and
the plant, by throwing Its strength to
the top, will soon become nude at the
base.

One of the greatest triumphs of
Lydia E. Pinkhaln's Vegetable Com
pound is the ~conquering of woman'S
dread enemy Tumor,
The growth of a tumor is so in
sidious that frequently its presence
is wholly u~nsuspected until it is well
advanced.
So called wandering pains" may
come from its early stages OF the
presence of danger may be made
manifest by excessive monthly periods
accompanied by unusual pain, from
the abdomen through the groin and
thigh.
If you have mysterious pains, if
there are indications of inflammation
or displacements, secure a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from native roots and

PUTS THE N g IN.

The Kind of Food Used by Athletes.
A former college athlete, one of the
long distance runners, began to lose his
power Of endurance. His experience
with a change in food is interesting.
"While l was in training on the
track athletic team, my daily joys be-
came a task, until after / was put on
Grape-Nuts food for two meals q day.
After using the Food for two weeks 1
felt like a new man. My digestion was
perfect, nerves steady and L was full
of energy.
II trained for the mile and the half
mile uns (those events which require
so much endurance) and then the long
daily joys which before had been
such a task, were clipped off with ease
l won both events.

feet condition and gave me my gin
GER Not only was my physical condi-
ton made perfect, and my weight in
creased, but my mind was i clear
and vigorous so that I could get out
my studies in about half the time for
merly required. Now most all of the
University men use Grape-Nuts, for
they have learned its value, but l think
my testimony will not be amiss and
may perhaps help some one TO learn
how the best results can be obtained"
There's a reason for the effect of
Grape-Nuts food on the human body
and brain. The certain elements in
wheat and barley are selected with
special reference to their power for re-
building the brain and nerve centers.
The product is then carefully and Sci
entifically prepared so as TO make IL
easy of digestion. The physical and
mental results are so apparent after
two or three weeks use as to produce
a profound impression. Read The
