TAKE THEM OUT

When a student begins to break
down from lack of the right kind of
food. there are only two things to do;
either take him out of school or feed
him properly on food that will rebuild
the brain and nerve cells. That food
is Grape-Nuts.

a bad condition from overstudy, but
Mother having heard about Grape
Nuts food began to feed me on it. IL

other food, and the results were mar

disappeared, and found l could study
for a long period without feeling the
effects of it.
MY face was pale and thin, but is
now round and has considerable color
After l had been using Grape-Nuts for
about two months l felt like new
how altogether. I have gained greatly
in strength as we'll as flesh, and it is
a pleasure to study now that am
not bothered with my head. l passed
all of my examinations with reason

Father and mother have both been

A Necklace Which Brings III Luck.

An eerie story is told about a neck
lace which formerly belonged to the
Maharannee of Cooch Behar, India,
and which is supposed to bring bad
fortune to every one connected with
Il.
The history of the necklace
pearls and turquoises, which are not
usually considered to be unlucky
stones-is certainly peculiar While
it was in the Mahrannee's possession
she was robbed of a quantity of valu-
able jewelry, and the Mararajah lost
some of his best racing ponies by
death and breakdowns. The advice of
a pundit was sought. He prescribed
a change of ownership and voyage
across the sea in order to break the
spell, and the necklace was according
ly given to a lady in England. says
Woman's Life.
AS a result the Maharajah has be-
gun to win races again and the Ma
harannee has recovered the stolen
property, but the story goes that the
present owner of the necklace has
been the victim of persistent i'll for
tune from the day that it came into
her possession.

Trouble Promptly.

There is so much Rheumatism every
where that the following advice by an
eminent authority, who writes for read
ers of large Eastern daily paper, will
be highly appreciated by those who
suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy one
half ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one ounce Compound Kargon, three

rilla. Shake these well in bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and at bedtime; also drink plenty

result.
This simple recipe is said to strength
en- and cleanse the eliminative tissues
of the Kidneys SO that they can filter
and strain from the blood and system
the poisons, acids and waste matter
which cause not only Rheumatism, but
numerous other diseases. Every man
or woman here who feels that their
kidneys are not healthy and active, OF
who suffers from any urinary trouble
whatever, should not hesitate to make
up this MIXTURE, as it is certain to dc
much good. and may save you from
much misery and suffering after while

and then Kramer came east to claim
his bride. The marriage was cele-

BIRDS TRAVEL ALONG ROUTES.
All Have Not Same Representations
Great Distance.

The routes by which birds pass to
and from one country to another in
spring and autumn are regularly fol-
lowed. One great thoroughfare, of
course, is in the spring from south to
north, and conversely in the autumn
from north to south; another is south
east to northwest; third southwest
to northeast, with the return into the
same starting points, says the Scot
man.
The great southern wintering region
is south of the north of Africa and
extends to far beyond the equator,
and from it, under the breeding in
stinct in spring, birds hurry away to
dispense themselves over the wide
spreading palaearctic OF northern
lands, which extend as far, in the
case of some species, as a long way
within the arctic circle. South of the
equator during the northern winter
the migrants fly toward the south pole
to breed. The seasonal range limit
of some of the northern breeding
birds is enormous-several extending
from Patagonia to Greenland.
All migratory birds have not the
same range; some fly longer, some
shorter, distances. The best known
of all the birds of passage, the swal-
low has one of the longest ranges
from 1000 to 10000 miles. In this
extended range are also included such
birds as the gray plover, the knot, the
pectoral and curlew sandpipers and
the Asiatic golden plover.
The longer range-from 5000 to
1000 miles-includes such well-known
birds as the cuckoo, the corncrake
the sedge warbler, the greenshank;
the moderate range-from 5000 tc
5000 miles-embraces the turtle dove
the crane, lapwing, mallard and jach
snipe; the third range-from 1000 tt
1000 miles-such birds as the WOOD
chat shrike, the stone curlew, the
woodcock and black Tern and in wha
is called the restricted area-with ;
mileage of 1000 miles downward
there are the waxwings, several gull
and the elder duck.

Geese on a cider Spree.

Martin Beck, a farmer on the Cone
WACO hills, is Inundated to admit
that three of his geese went on a
disgraceful spree after having eaten
some pulp from cider mill.
Some time after the eating Of the
pulp, the peculiar action of the fowls
attracted the attention of the farmer.
They swayed from side to side and
cackled hoarsely. Finally one by one
they fell limp and apparently dead.
Mrs. Beck carried the fowls into the
house, with the intention of plucking
them, when they revived.
Since then the geese have kept
away from the cider mill, and have
tried to prevent other geese from go
ing near it-Philadelphia North

TRAVELLING BY ELEPHANT.
Uncomfortable Howdah-Fordino Rlv.
ers and Passing Through Forests.

There We're two elephants ar our
ulsposal and myself and the interpre.
ger rode the first, each occupying half
OF the howdah. The howdah has a |
peculiar and Objectionable habit of
nearly succeeding in cutting your legs
IN TWO. II you hang your legs outstoe
you may pad the edge as much as
you like, but if you are new to the
game you will wake in about half an
hour from an uneasy doze with the
palhiul conviction that the lower
halYes OF your legs have dropped off

from which you can view the outside

W which suggests that they have been
Irayed through to the last shred. Alb.
normal efforts allow you to drag them
safely inside and you think it will be
better in future to keep them there.
The elephant is almost as fine a We
hlcle to see the surrounding country
from as London bus, and there is a
considerable element of excitement in
his progression. The elephant | rode
had a fatal habit when it came to
river bank or bit Of rough ground of
looking around and picking out what
seemed the worst bit he could see.
Down one side of a river it seemed
as II he was engaged in trying to
stand on his head and / could look
out of the howdah, although I was w..
ing therein, and observe the fishes
darting over the stones in the water
just under my lords noble forehead.
More than once on these journeys the
beast would patiently SLOUGH through
the trees and bushes off the track in
search Of something edible quite re.
garless of the fact that the branches
threatened to sweep howdah and
everything else over the stern.
But quite one of the most peculiar
sensations was when they took it
into their heads to have scratch
against the telegraph poles. It would
be wonderful line which could with.
stand the solid work the elephant ex
poets its posts to carry out and when
the number two beast leaned too hard
and the post snapped | could almost
see the mild and somewhat indignant
surprise reflected from one intelligent
face to the other-Singapore Free
