MOTHER AND CHILD
Goth Fully NOurished on Grape Nuts.

The value OF this famous food Is
shown in many ways, in addition to
what might be expected from It's
chemical 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 cereals.
1t contains also the phosphate OF
potash grown in the grains, which
Nature 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.
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 ] did not re-
cover health and strength, and the
doctor said / could not nurse the baby
as I did not have nourishment for
her, besides ] was too weak.
He said / might try a change of
diet and see what that would do. and
recommended C lpe-Nuts food. 1

A marked change came over both

Railroad stock which the late
Mr.. -, your father, gave you on
your wedding day; also regarding
the mortgages and bank stocks which
were given you by your husband some
years ago. We wish to have an &C
counting of taxes, and must ask you
to give this your immediate atten-
ton"
The rich women of Pittsburg never
stopped to ask questions. They simp-
ly few to the offices of the assessors
to settle.
They did not know what might hap
pen later If the assessors could get
their maiden names and their family
history so readily, and they decided
to get their long held stock placed
on the books and pay their taxes.
Some of the women almost tainted
when told that their maiden names
came from the blue book. The as
SCISSORS sent out 1000 of these letters
and have been forced to put on ex-
ira clerks to handle the business that
is coming in.
The Pennsylvania Railroad, which
had $4,000 holders of stock, is a
favorite for the rich Pittsburg wo-
men. The railroad some time ago re-
fused to permit the city assessors to
copy names from it's books, as did
many banks. and there was no way
to get at the fair holders of this
property. Mortgages held on prop
critics outside the State of Pennsyl-
vania was also safe from taxation in
Pittsburg as long as the owners could
keep the knowledge of their owner
ship from the assessors
According to an employe of the
city there is great fear on the part
IF nf
may be arrested for perjury, since
they recently took oath as to all their
taxable possessions and did not in
clude taxable railroad stocks and
bonds worth thousands of dollars,
but when the blue book was rung in
on them, they uncovered the hidden
store Of bonds.

"My brother had eczema three different
summers. Each summer it came out be-

and he said his suffering was terrible.
When it came on the third summer, he
bought box of Cuticura Ointment and
gave it faithful trial. Soon he began to
feel better and he cured himself entirely
of eczema with Cuticura. A lady in In
diana heard of how my daughter, Mrs.
Miller, had cured her little son of terrible
eczema by the Cuticura Remedies. This
lady's little one had the eczema so badly
that they thought they would lose it. She
used Cuticura Remedies and they cured her
