CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders In Health.

It is worth knowing that, change
In food can cure dyspepsia. II deem
1t my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me of indigestion.
II had been troubled with it for
years, until last year my doctor recon-
mended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. / followed instruc-
tons and now ! am entirely we'll.
"The whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial
as you see fit."
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food, is that it
Is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stom-
ach as the food she had been using;
1t also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system.
If that part Of the human body is in
perfect working order, there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-
sents the steam that drives the engine
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. 1t is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

The New Baby.

A young woman Of religious turn
Of mind wished to announce to a
friend the birth of her fl1st-born child.
She sent the following telegram:
Isaiah, &c." which, being interpreted,
read, For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given"
The friend, more literal and less
familiar with the prophets, read the
message, and said to her husband.
Margaret has a boy, but why on earth
did she name him Isaiah? He must
be healthy chap, though, for he

and a half in size looks like a mighty
small affair to pay 50 much money for,
and If a man comes in expecting to pay

and not buy at all il the salesman shows
him something little larger for 500.
The salesman if he knows his business.
will find to certainty just how much a
customer is willing to pay before he
shows him anything.
Then it's better not to show colored
stone, such as a ruby or an emerald or a
blush diamond in connection with other
diamonds. If you show some customers
a colored stone and then put it away and
show him a good white diamond he will
declare that the diamond Is off color. 1t

TALK ON ARGENTINA.
Commissioner Nelson Speaks Before
the University Club.

the university CluD.
The University Club was entertained
last evening by Senior Don Ernesto Mel
son, special commissioner of education
for the rgentine Republic, with an in
formal talk about Argentine and it's chief
city, Buenos Aires.
1t was expected that Senior Don Epi-
fanio Portela, the Argentine minister,
would be present and deliver an address
upon the American fleet and the Straits of
Magellan. but. owing to the minister's in
ability to be present Senior Nelson kind
ly consented to take his place.
Senior Nelson said that the commerce of
Buenos Aires was exceeded by that of
New York only in this hemisphere. Seven
hundred millions of dollars Of foreign
trade, chiefly in grain, wool and meat,
passed her harbor last year. While wool
is the chief staple. wheat is rapidly sur
passing it, the wheat crop of the past
year amounting to 16O.OO0O0O bushels.
The climate. he said. is more equable than
ours. and they have their warm weather
when ours Is cold; consequently their
Christmas celebration partakes more of
the nature of our Fourth of July
While New York city has thirteen for
eigners to every one hundred of it's popu-
lation, Buenos Aires has double that num-
Der, Italians predominating, mostly Vene-
tan, Genoese and Piedmontese. their In
fux being at the rate of quarter of a
million q year.
Whole Spanish villages, too, he said
migrate to Argentina, and under their
local priest continue their identity in in
dividual colonies, especially the Cata-
lonians, who are called the Yankees of
SPAIN"
Education in Buenos Aires, from the
kindergarten to the university. is free. but
higher education is under federal super
vision.
There are more physicians in Buenos
Aires than the sick people can take care
Of. AS consequence hygienic precau-
tons are more thorough and the death
rate exceedingly low.
