APPENDICITIS.
Not at All Necessary TO Operate In
Many Cases.

Automobiles and Appendicitis scare
some people before they are hit.
Appendicitis is often caused by too
much starch in the bowels. Starch is
hard to digest and clogs up the diges-
tive machinery-also tends to form
cakes in the cecum. CHATS the blind
pouch at entrance to the appendix.)
A N. H. girl had appendicitis, but
lived on milk for awhile-then Grape
Nuts and got well without an opera
ton.
She says: Five years ago while at
school, l suffered terribly with consti-
patton and Indigestion" (Too much
starch, white bread, potatoes, ETC..
which she did not digest)
"Soon after left school had an at
tack of appendicitis and for thirteen
weeks lived on milk and water. When
I recovered enough to eat solid food
there was nothing that would agree
with me, until q friend recommended
Grape-Nuts.
when began to eat Grape-Nuts /
weighed 9S lbs, but soon grew to lis
lbs. The distress after eating left me
entirely and now am like q new per
SON."
"a little Grape-Nuts dissolved in hot
water or milk would have been much
better for this case than milk alone,
for the starchy part of the wheat and
barley Is changed into form of d.
gestable sugar in making Grape-Nuts.)

For Summer Comfort.

Nothing wears and stands frequent
washing and hard usage in summer
pillow covers for hammocks, living
rooms and verandas like natural col
ored linen.
For hard-wear summer hangings
cream colored seersucker finished with
cotton fringe is ideal, for it issues
from the laundry numberless times
without sign of wear, and it is al
ways clean and cool-looking.

An entree new to some of the
guests at a recent luncheon was
green peppers stuffed with creamed
chicken with which a little parmesan
cheese had been mixed. The tops
were covered with buttered crumbs,
and they were baked for about half
an hour. In baking any such prep
aration, the dish containing it should
be covered, excepting for the last few
minutes that it is in the oven, when
the top should be allowed to brown.

"Are you aware that an attempt is

MRS HENRY LEE

Owing to modern methods of living
not one woman in a thousand APP
proaches this perfectly natural change
without experiencing a train of very
annoying and sometimes p ainful
symptoms.
This is the most critical period of
her whole existence and every woman
who neglects the care of her health
at this time invites disease and pain.
When her system is in deranged
condition or she is predisposed to
apoplexy or congestion of any organ,
the tendency is at this D r d
likely to become active and with q
host of nervous irritations make life a
burden. At this time also cancers
and tumors are more liable to form
and begin their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as sense
of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches,
backaches, melancholia, dread of Inn
pending evil, palpitatiOn of the heart
Irregularities, constipation and dizzi
ness are promptly needed by intel
Hgent women who are approaching
the period of life when this greai
change may be expected.

Thus they will consume slo-'y like
