ROBBERY IN PARIS CAFES.
No Prices on Bills of Fare, and Walters
impose on Guests.

IT tell YOU said the returned Euro
pean traveller, taking up the bill OF
fare, its a good deal of relief 10 get
TO a place where one can know the
exact cost OF things to eat and drink.
When on the other side I narrowly es-
capped nervous prostration because OF
the latitude in the prices of items on
the menu Paris Is about the worst Of
fender among European cities in this
respect In restaurant after restaurant
there prices are omitted from the bill
of fare simply TO give an opportunity
TO rife the pockets OF the unwary.
Take my advice and have as close an
approach to an ironclad agreement as
possible with your garcon regarding
the 'demnition total' Of your meal be-
fore giving your order. If you don't,
there's trouble and pecuniary loss
ahead. The waiter. with the conniy-
ance of the proprietor of the cafe,
will do all he can TO impose upon you.

American woman gave n small lunch

dozen friends She had no intention
of making it an elaborate affair. She
knew French ways and had a careful
estimate made of the cost of the repast
ordered. After the second course she
noticed that the walters were pressing
upon her guests delicacies for which
she had not stipulated. and she OBJ
served too. that a point was made of
asking each person If she would have
some of this. that or the other thing.
OF course the viands were accepted.

FACTS ABOUT FLOUR
Made White by Leaving out the Part
Which Helps Digest.

Modern methods of milling separate
the parts of the wheat berry that con-
tain the diastatic element, and furnish
only the white flour made up almost
entirely of starch.
One of the principal elements need
ed to digest this starch has been left
out in the process, and therefore the
person who eats much white bread is
almost sure to have intestinal troubles
for the starch does not digest properly
and must, of niece ssity. decay and
cause all sorts of trouble.
Grape-Nuts food, on the contrary. is
made up of the entire wheat and bar
ley. and the processes of digestion as
shown in the human body, are fol-
lowed as exactly as possible. in a me-
chanical way, by the use of moisture,
time and warmth. No chemicals or
other ingredients are used, but sim
pie methods scientifically arranged.
In this way the search of the grain
is transformed into grape-sugar, and
the Grape-Nuts food, which appears in
a granular form, shows on the outside
of the little granules, glittering specks
of this grape-sugar which is not put

into grape-sugar which works out to
the surface, very much as the sap of

A handful of Grape-Nuts held to the
