RATHER A POINTED REsUkE.
Minister'S Amendment to Usual Grace
Fitted Circumstances.

A Pennsylvania divine formed one
OF a house-party in Philadelphia
where the younger son, in accordance
with what the clergyman observed to
be his constant habit, as soon as he
had seated himself at breakfast i'm
mediately possessed himself of large
slice of bread, the quality of which he
proceeded to test by liberal mouth
full.
The minister, stickler in such mat
ters of propriety, gazed blandly at
him for moment or SO; then he fold.
ed his hands and closed his eyes in
preparation for grace.
For what we are about to receive" !"
he intoned with painful emphasis.
"and for what our young friend has
already received, Lord, make us truly
thankful" Weekly.

BOTH GAINED
Man and wife Fatten on orape.Nut..

The notion that meat is necessary
for real strength and the foundation
of solid flesh is no longer as prevalent
as formerly.
Excessive meat eaters are usually
sluggish a part of the time because
they are not able to fully digest their
food, and the undigested portion is
changed into what is practically a
kind of poison that acts upon the
blood and nerves, thus getting all
through the system.
Il was heavy meat eater" writes
an Ills. man. "and up to two years
ago, was in very pooe health. suf-
fered with indigestion so that / only
weighed 95 pounds.
"Then heard about Grape-Nuts and
decided to try it. My wife laughed at
me at first but when l gained to 1875
pounds and felt 30 fine. she thought
she would eat Grape-Nuts too.
Now she is fat and well and has
gained 40 pounds. We never have in
digestion any more and seldom feel
the desire for meat. A neighbor of
ours, 6S years old, was troubled with
Indigestion for years; was a heavy
meat eater. and now since he has been
eating Grape-Nuts regularly. he says
he is well and never has indigestion.
/ could name a lot of persons who
have really been cured of indigestion
by. changing from heavy meat diet
to Grape-Nuts." There's a Reason"

Food and Air.

Food sense is still hampered with
fads. but 1t is becoming science and
a custom. No qualified authority is
ready to say that a meat diet can with
the best results be abandoned. What
the qualified men do say is that far
less nitrogenous food than is usually
consumed in America suffices for nu-
triton and is better for general
health, showing its benefit in longev-
ity Science will not say that slow
and thorough mastication will stop
disease or perfect digestion, but 1t is
peremptory in advising mastication
as thorough as the proper appetite for
food permits. Too much holding of
food in the mouth may cause dislike
or Indifference. and the proper di-
gestive action depends upon enjoy
ment Human beings can live long
time in bad atmospheric conditions,
but we know positively that oxygena-
ton of the blood is indispensable, and
that fresh air is q remedial agent of
more potency than ten years ago We
fancied.

FRIGHT sosEaED Mr.. FOUNDER.
Late Home ooer UnduIy Alarmed by
Suspicious Character.

He climbed on the car out In East
Cleveland the other night, or, to be
exact the other morning, and proceed.
ed toward his modest little home
down a pretty side street.
As soon as he reached the sidewalk
he tried to walk along the edge and
ascertain II he was still able to navi.
! gate along a straight line.
I'm tn only man that wuz in the
bunch t'night that en- walksh straight's
that" he muttered to himself, with
pardonable pride VIII en- he found that
he could move along first-rate.
| A moment later he saw a suspi-
cious-looking man following him.
THAT fellesh goin' L try t rob
muh," he muttered. He felt in his
crumpled two-dollar bill. but it was
all he had left after the evenings enter
tainment, and he didn't want to
lose 1t.
Then he reflected that probably the
stranger following him wasn't think
ing Of robbing him at all. But to
make sure that they didn't have any
trouble he crossed the street. A min
ute later he looked about. The man
behind him had crossed over. too.
Once again the man with the two
dollar bill crossed the street. He
hated to look around for a time, lest
his fears be substantiated. When he
did turn his head his pursuer was
not far behind him. He had crossed
the street again.
The man ahead clutched tightly his
two-dollar bill, dear to him because 1t
was all that remained of what had
been roll the size of blacksmiths s
forearm, and started to cross over
once more, for he happened to think
that he lived on the other side of
the street anyhow, but he hadn't
reached the middle of the street
when he looked back and noted that
his pursuer was also crossing over
He stopped right there, pulled out
his two-dollar bill and watch and held
them out toward the man behind him.
Heres all I've got, old man." says
he, now perfectly sobered by his
fright Take it, but lemme alone.
My wife's worried about me anyway,
and If go into the house with my
face bunged up I'll get thrown out"
why, you darn fool" grunted the
other man as he brushed on by, I'm
the man that goes around to turn out
the street lights" = Cleveland Plain

Prince Dabro. the young Egyptian
who has come to America to study the
Gotten industry, said in New York the
other day:

Egypt, the industry is not regulated

my son, who is now twenty-five
years of age, when four months old
began to have eczema on his face,

Peter the Great particularly delight
ed in drawing teeth, and he strictly
enjoined his servants to send for him
when anything of that sort was to be
done. One day his favorite valet de
chambre seemed very melancholy;
the czar asked him what was the mat
ter. "oh. your majesty" said the man,
my wife is suffering the greatest
agony from toothache, and she OBJ
stinately refuses to have the tooth
taken out" 'If that is ALL" said Peter,
I'VE will soon cure it; take me to her
at once" When they arrived. the wom-
an declared that she was not suffering
at all; there was nothing the matter
with her. THAT is the way she talks,
your majesty" said the valet; "she is
suffering tortures." Hold her head
and hands, said the czar; II will
have it out in a moment" And he in
stantly pulled out the indicated tooth
with great dexterity. amid profuse
thanks from the husband. What was

success and creditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup Of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but one of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any debilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
It acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as laxative, and its component

His Wife's Culinary Ability.

Some weeks ago the wife of Judge
Blank, Of Pacific avenue. lost her cook,
and since she mad no other resource
she rolled up her sleeves and for
week provided such meals as the judge
had not enjoyed since those happy
days when the Blanks did not keep

that by way of appreciative acknowl-
edgment he presented Mrs. Blank
with beautiful ermine cloak. Quite
naturally, the incident was a good

acquaintances of the Blanks and
spirit OF envious emulation was de-
veloped in certain quarters. 1t was In

there seemed every prospect OF the
class Distinguishing itself.
Things were progressing quite salts

ulating himself on the trouble he had
taken when, alas! a question was asked
which made him tremble for the repu-
tetion OF his scholars.
why does a dog hang his tongue
out OF his MOUTH" asked the inspector.
"7es, my boy?" he said to bright
looking lad who held up his hand.

She accordingly wrote on the black
