CHANGE IN FOOD


It is worth knowing that a change
in food can cur dyspepsia, Il deem
It my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me of indigestion.
Il had been troubled with it for
years, until last year my doctor rec
commended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. l followed instruc-
tions and now l am entirely we'll.
The whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
nre welcome to use this testimonial as
you see 1T"
The reason this lady was helped by
the use Of Grape-Nuts food, is that 1t
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stomach
as the food she had been using; 1t also
contains the elements required for
building up the nervous system. II
that part of the human body is in per-
feet working order, there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-
sents the steam that drives the en-
CINE.
When the nervous system is run
down, the machinery Of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children as well as
adults. II is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

Eczema appeared when our baby
was three months old. We applied to
several doctors and hospitals, each of
which gave us something different

we have used nothing but Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and now

For the last IS months the car has
been virtually a prisoner in one of
his own palaces and in the intervals
of state work he has solaced himself
with composing music and writing
verse. His poetry is melodious and
carefully polished and his music is
melancholy and inspired by a spirit Of
fatalism. Some three years ago some
of the czar's poems were published
under the pseudonym of Olaf, with
music by his cousin, the Grand Duke
O'Assia, but he has himself set some
of his verses to music with a consider
able amount of taste and a real knowI-
edge Of harmony. Nicholas II. has a
fine collection of v%iolins, of which he
is very proud.

II Is the business of the kidneys to

times when they need a little assistance.

Common Ailments
Loss of appetite, coated tongue, bad
taste in the mouth, heavy dull headache,
and a dull, sluggish feeling-these are
the symptoms of stomach trouble. They
indicate that the stomach is on a strikes
that it is no longer furnishing to the
blood the full quota of nourishment that
the body demands, hence every organ
suffers.
There are two methods Of treatment,
the old one by which the stomach is
humored by the use of predigested foods
and artificial ferments, and the new one
by which the stomach is toned up to do
the work which nature intended OF 1t,

These wonderful pills are useful in p

The great value of DR.. Williams Pinh
Pills lies in the fact that they actually
make new blood and this carries health

body. The stomach is toned up, the
nerves are strengthened, every organ Il
