Where She Should Live.

father Of his daughter who wanted her
to make match with a young man
whose only qualification was the pos
session of goodly fortune-"what

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trou.
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because Of its great
er strength than other makes.

OF SUCH STUFF ARE DREAMS.
Little Virginia Imagined She Had
"Eated Herself"

Little Virginia, three years old,
brought her mother to her nursery a
few nights ago with heartbroken
walls.
What is the matter, dearie? Why
are you screaming so?"
Mamma, am l all here?"
Certainly you are all here, right in
your bed"
But, mamma, feel Of me, see IL I'm
all here. Are my feet here and the
top Of my head, both?"
Certainly, Virginia, every bit Of

RAILROAD MAN
Didn't Like Being Starved.

A man running on a railroad has to
be In good condition all the time or he
is liable to do harm to himself and
others.
A clear head is necessary to run a
locomotive or conduct train. Even
railroad mans appetite and diges-
tion are matters of Importance, as the
clear brain and steady hand result
from the healthy appetite followed by
the proper digestion of food.
For the past five years" writes a
railroader, Il have been constantly
troubled with indigestion. Every doe
tor l consulted seemed to want to
starve me to death. First was diet
ed on warm water and toast until !
was almost starved; then, when they
would let me eat, the indigestion
would be right back again.
"Only temporary relief came from
remedies, and | tried about all Of them
/ saw advertised. About three months
ago friend advised me to try Grape
Nuts food. The very first day / no
ticed that my appetite was satisfied,
which had not been the case before,
that can remember.
I'm a week, ] believe, I.had more
energy than ever before in my life. /
have gained seven pounds and have
not had a touch Of indigestion since

UnIversa, Lanouaue.

He spoke his love in German--she
answered not word. In French he
tried to WOO her--the maiden never
heard. He tried his luck in English,
in Irish--all in vain; In Greek, Turkish
and Latin, and in the tongue Of Spain.
And then an inspiration came to the
anguished youth. "The universal
language" he cried, I'll try, for.
sooth!" He kissed the demure maiden
and pressed her to his breast; she
understood that language, and-well,
you know the rest.

use Starch that does not stick to the
