How to Clean Brass.

First clean the brass in the ordinary
way either with one of the ready made
polishes, or with paraffin and finely
powdered bathbrick mixed TO a rather
soft consistency. Polish with dry. fine.
ly powdered bathbrick. then rub
quickly over with a little petrol. and
afterward polish with dry whitening
and leather. using brush for any
parts into which the leather will not
go.
BE sure that all stains are removed
before you begin polishing. Stains OF
long standing. that bought ready y.made
polishes will not move. will always
yield to a vigorous treatment with
bathbrick and parafIin: in fact, this.
applied with rather stiff nailbrush.
is what dealers use to clean old brass
that has become absolutely black
through lying by.

way to keep these articles. and yet not
have them litter the pantry shelves.

large wooden boxes from the grocer

require washing or dusting. Sucii

CHANCE IN FOOD
Works Wonders In Health.

II is worth knowing that change
In food can euro dyspepsia. Il deem
II my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me Of Indigestion.
II had been troubled with II for
years. until last year my doctor rec
ommended Grapc.Nuts food to be used
every morning. followed instruc.
tons and now am entirely well.
The whole family like Grape. Nuts.
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial a.
you see fit."
The reason this lady was helped BY
the use Of Grape-Nuts food, is that Il
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stomach
as the food she had been using: It 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 tho en-.
gine.
When the nervous system Is run
down, the machinery OF the body
works badly. Grape.Nuts food can be
used by small children as we'll as
adults. It is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.
