Increased by Proper Feeding.

A lady writer who not only has done
good literary work. but reared a
family, found IN Grape-Nuts the ideal
food for brain work and to develop
healthy children. She writes
Il am an enthusiastic proclaimer Of
Grape-Nuts as a regular diet. | for

and for years while nursing my four
children. had insufficient nourishment
for them.
Unable to eat breakfast felt faint
later. and would go to the pantry and
eat cold chops. sausage. cookies. dough-
nuts or anything l happened to find.
Being a writer, at times my head felt
heavy and my brain asleep.
When l read of Grape-Nuts l began
eating it every morning. also gave It
to the children. including. my 10
months old baby, who soon grew as
fat as little pig, good natured and
contented.
Within a week | had plenty OF
breast milk. and felt stronger within
two weeks. I wrote evenings and
feeling the need Of sustained brain
power. began eating a small saucer of
Grape-Nuts with milk instead Of my
usual indigestible hot pudding. pie, or
cake for dessert at night
"Grape-Nuts did wonders for me
and learned to like it, did not mind

MEATS THAT REQUIRE CARE.
Care Needed in the Preparation %
Lamb ard Mutton.

An experienced housewife declares
that both lamb and mutton should be
more carefully prepared than the 9TH
er meats. First. the loose fat which
comes wrapped around such a roast
should be removed. washed carefully
in salty water and set 20 work in a
dish OF cold water into which a very
little bicsrbOnate Of soda has been put.
Then the roast proper instead OF
being washed or wiped. as usual.
should be thoroughly scraped with
a sharp knife until every bit of skin
has been removed. without. however.
cutting away any Of the fat. and next
the meat should be freely rubbed with
salt After this. the loose fat. which
has meanwhile been soaking. should
be wiped quite dry and fastened
around the roast with long skevers.
Finally. this outer layer should be
rubbed over with salt and at last the
roast Of lamb or mutton is ready for
the pan.

mitted to remain open until l o'clock

the biggest harvest.
The contract for the pyrotechnical
