Gently to hamlet in Berks county,
Pennsylvania, in the interest OF a
large coal corporation, and now he is

He was driving along a country road

MOTHER AND CHILD
Both Fully Nourished on Grape-Nuts.

The value of this famous food is
what might be expected from it's chem
.cal analysis.
Grape-Nuts food is made of whole
wheat and barley, is thoroughly baked
for many hours and contains all the
wholesome ingredients in these ce-
reals.
1t contains also the phosphate of
potash grown in the grains, which Ma
ture uses to build up brain and nerve
cells.
Young children require proportion
ately more of this element because the
brain and nervous system of the child
grows so rapidly.
A Va. mother found the value of
Grape-Nuts in not only building up her
own strength but in nourishing her
baby at the same time. She writes:
After my baby came I did not re-
cover health and strength, and the
doctor said l could not nurse the baby
as l did not have nourishment for her,
besides 1 was too weak.
HE said I might try a change of
diet and see what that would do, and
recommended Grape-Nuts food. I
bought a pkg. and used it regularly.
A marked change came over both
baby and l.

Is in fine condition, l am nursing her

A SIMPLE SAFEGUARD IN BUYING
PAINT.

Everybody should know how simple
and easy 1t is to avoid all uncertainty
in buying paint materials. There are
many so-cailed white leads on the
market, which contain chalk, zinc,
barytes, and other cheap adulterants.
Unless the property owner takes ad-
vantage of the simple means of pro
lection afforded him by reliable white
lead manufacturers, he runs great risk
of getting an inferior and adulterated
white lead.
1t is to protect the paint buyer
against fraud and adulteration that
National Lead Company, the largest
makers of genuine Pure White Lead
place their famous Dutch Boy Paint
err trademark on every keg of their
product, an absolute guarantee of it's
purity and quality. Anyone who wants
to make a practical test of white lead,
and who wants a valuable free book
about painting, should address Ma
tional Lead Company, Woodbridge
Bldg, New York, and ask for test
equipment.

Peonles as a Medicine.

Peonies were originally esteemed
less for beauty Of bloom than for value
as a medicine. In recognition of its
curative virtues, the peony was named
after Paeon, the physician of the
gods. An old writer says: about an
infants neck hang peonie. 1t cures
Alcydes cruell maladie." Nor did the
use Of the plant stop there, for peony
water was esteemed and drank in by
gone times. though whether as medi-
cine or merely as a refreshing tenn
perance beverage is more than modern
writer's can say.
