he found that every button on his best
coat had been cut off and then he re-
membered that one of his fair guests
has been rather importunate on the
souvenir question. He got her alone
after luncheon and accused her of the
theft and after some prevarication she
confessed that the buttons were in her
ccrsage. With some firmness the lieu
tenant led the culprit to his cabin.

MEAT OR CEREALS.
A Question of Interest to All Care
full Persons.

Arguments on food are interesting.
Many persons adopt vegetarian diet
on the ground that they do not like to
feel that life has been taken to feed
them. nor do they fancy the thought
of eating dead meat.
On the other hand, too great con-
sumption of partly cooked, starchy
oats and wheat or white bread. pastry,
ETC.. produces serious bowel troubles,
because the bowel digestive organs
(where starch is digested), are over
taxed and the food ferments, produc-
ing gas. and microbes generate in the
decayed food. frequently bringing on
peritonitis and appendicitis.
Starchy food is absolutely essential
to the human body Its best form is
shown In the food "Grape.Nuts." where
the starch is changed into a form of
sugar during the process of its manu-
facture. In this way. the required
food is presented to the system in a
pre-digested form and is Immediately
made into blood and tissue. without
taxing the digestive organs.
A remarkable result in nourishment
is obtained; the person using Grape
Nuts gains quickly in physical and
mental strength. Why In mental?
Because the food contains delicate
particles OF Phosphate of Potash OBJ
tanned from the grains, and this unites
with the albumen OF all food and the
is what nature uses to re-
build worn out cells in the brain.
This Is a scientific fact that can be
easily proven by ten days use OF

pear that this company is working
nearly up to the limit The New
York Life gained such Roadway be-
fore the law was passed and suffered
so little, comparatively, from the Arm
strong investigation, that the question
with Its management has been how to
keep business Down to the limit, rath-
err than how to reach it. No other
company is writing nearly as much
as the law allows. The New York
Life has evidently become a pre-
ferred company.
The company's payments TO policy
holders during the six months end
ing June 80 were $21 .660,761. 1t is
interesting to note that this amount
was almost equally divided between
payments under policies maturing by
death and payments made to living
policy holders. Thus, while death
claims were s11.1S0,626, the amount
paid for matured endowments, annu-
tiles, trust fund installments, for pur-
chased policies and for dividends was

TIMELY TIPS TO RHEUMATICs.
Medical Expert Gives Simple Direc
lions for the Cure of Rhenma-
tism, Kidney and Bladder
Troubles.

The well-known physician, DR..
George Edmund Flood, states that
rheumatism and the more frequent
forms of Kidney and Bladder troubles
are largely due to errors in diet and
the general mode of life.
DR.. Flood cautions all who have
Rheumatism or Kidney and Bladder
ailments to be modsrate in the con-
sumption Of heavy. rich foods. A
good diet will be found in soups,
broths, fresh milk and plenty of
water. "You should" says DR.. Flood,
take plenty of time to eat and i'm
+mediateIy cease eating when your
stomach tells you that you have had
enough, even though your palate may
still ask for more If your work is
combining a moderate amount of ex'
ercise. taken each day in the open
air. will be Of great benefit"
Dr. Flood wishes it understood
however, that careful diet will not
alone suffice to cure these ailments,
although 1t proves of invaluable as
slstance. DR.. Flood has achieved
great success in his practice in the
treatment of Rheumatism. Kidney
and Bladder troubles, and for the
benefit OF our readers he has consent
ed to our reproduction in this column
of the complete prescription which
contributed so greatly to his success.
DR.. Flood says that this prescription
is the most certain cure for the dis
eases which we have mentioned that
he has ever come across in many
years of busy practice.
Here is the prescriptions:
