Why Graham Crackers are HealthfuI.

Graham flour is the whole kernel of
the wheat, ground without boiling, or,
i'm other words, without being sifted
through boiling cloths.
Graham crackers are the most dell
ciOus food made from this flour, and
are especially desirable for persons OF
sedentary habits or occupation, be-
cause their stimulating effect mate
rally helps the digestion.
The Graham Crackers backed by the
National Biscuit Company are differ
ent in flavor and better than any Of
the old fashioned kinds. They are
made scientifically by perfected pro-
cesses, which preserves the natural
sweetness and goodness Of the wheat,
and gives them q delicious nuuty
flavor entirely lacking in the Graham
Crackers made in the old crude way.
They are packed by the National Bis
cult Company in moisture and dust
proof packages, and are consequently
not only crisp, fresh and clean, but
have lost none Of their original flavor.
To get them, simply ask anywhere for
package of Rcd Label Graham
Crackers made by the National Biscuit
Company.

cident saturday morning. The man
who had charge of the animal noticed
on going into the stable in the early

with blood and on making an eXatn-
ination found that the animal was
bleeding profuscly from the mouth,
and such was the flow of blood that
DR.. Blakeley was sent for. The vet
Urinary made an examination of the
horses mouth and feeling something
sharp around the roots of the anlmais
tongue pulled it out and found it to
be q needle. The needle, which was
supposed to have been taken with

the horses mouth and thus caused the
hemorrhage. The horse was weak
from the loss Of blood but will prob
ably be all right in a day or two.
