Thus the increase in the case of men
IS l4A2 per cent. and that in the case of
women l6 per cent. Mr. Kure. who has
gathered these statistics, thinks that this
comparatively large ratio on the side of
women is due To the new method of edu-
cation, and to the fact that modern con-
dltlons bring women into the struggle
for livelihood side by side with men.
As 10 the time of year when suicides
are most frequent in Japan, the inter
val from April to September is indicat-
e'i, and within that period, again, the
months OF May, June and July nave the
worst record.
Hanging is the method most often re-
sorted TO. Men choose hanging and fe-
males drowning. For every sixty deaths
by hanging on the side of men there were
only thirty-one ON the side of women.
whereas for every forty-one men who de-
stroyed themselves by drowning there
were fifty-eight women.

EASY FOOD
Ready for Instant Uas without
Cooking,

Ready for Instant Uas without
Cooking.
Almost everyone likes a cereal food
OF some kind at breakfast and supper,
but the ordinary way of cooking cereals
results In pasty mass that is hard to
digest, and If not properly digested, the
raw mass goes down into the intestinal
tract where gas is generated and trou-
BILE follows.
Everyone knows that good food prop
erly digested keeps the body we'll, while
poor food or even food OF good quality
that is poorly prepared and not digest
ed, is sure to bring on some kind of
disease.
The easiest food to digest In this line
is Grape-Nuts, made from wheat and
barley, and cooked thoroughly at the
factory, some II TO 16 hours being CON
stunned in the different processes OF prep
aration. The food, therefore, is ready
for instant service and the starch hss
been changed to a form OF Sugar, so
that 1t is pre-digested and ready foC
almost immediate absorption.
A Chicago young lady writes that
she suffered for years from indigestion
and dyspepsia from the use of food that
was not suitable to her powers Of d.
gestlon. She says:
Il began using Grape-Nuts, and /
confess to having had q prejudice at
frst and was repeatedly urged before

Reports to the effect that electric lights
are detrimental to the eyesight are pro-
nounced unfounded by an electrical ex-

that the trouble arises from too direct
exposure of the eye to the light, and
that effect would be the same or worse
