EYE TROUBLES
Caused by Improper Food.

Most people would never think OF
connecting eye disease with the food
they eat. But when we remember
that every part of the body-every
crgan-is nourished by the blood and
the blood is made of the food we eat,
it seems reasonable to trace even eye
troubles to food.
A N. Y man had an interesting ex.
perience at one of the great hospitals
in that city that may benefit persons
who have chronic eye trouble. He
writes:
-Four years ago was stricken with
an eye trouble. After being unsuccess-
fully treated by several physicians and
occulists, | went to noted New
York hospital.
"On examination they pronounced
my case iritis inflammation of the
iris), caused by poor blood on account
of improper assimilation of food.
They had to operate on my right
eye, keeping me in dark room and
on strict diet for several weeks
When leaving, the doctor cautioned me
in regard to saving the other eye
saying that must be temperate as to
my diet and use neither tea nor cof
fee.
II told him it would be almost i'm.
possible for me to get and live on
what they had given me at the hos
Dital. He replied: 1T is not necessary
AS an official here / cannot recommend
any private brand of food or drink
AS friend advise you to try Grape
Nuts, discard all fatty, heating foods
as much as possible, especially in the
morning.
This advice l have followed, ex
cepting few times when 1 have
grown careless, but danger signals al
ways come, such as specks and blots
before my eyes and some inflamma
ton. You may be certain l go back
to what my doctor advised-Grape
Nuts" There's Reason

Keokuk theatergoers were given an
especially delightful evening at the
Grand last night, when the popular
comedy drama, THE Mummy and the
Humming Bird" was presented by q
most capable company, headed by the
talented actor, Mr.. w A. Whitecar.
The drama was certainly worthy OF
an attendance which should have tax
ed the capacity of the house, and al
though the attendance was fair, it was
not what the production was deserv-
ing of. The play tells most inter
esting and thrilling story of an episode
in the life of married couple, which
struck at the foundation stones of
that homes future. A smooth society
man, taking advantage of the hus-
bands absorption in his business af-
fairs, ingratiates himself into the
good graces of the wife, impressing
upon her the fact that her husband is
neglecting her from a lackof affec-
ton. He finally forces her into a
compromising situation. The husband
however, becoming enlightened to the
situation, and having confidence in
his wife cleverly foils the humming
bird, and there is happy culmina-
ton. There was not single weak
character in the cast. and the situa-
tions gave opportunity of exceptionl-
ly clever acting. The Mummy and
the Humming Bird" will be remem-
bered by theatergoers as one of the
most pleasing productions of the past
few seasons.
Variety is the spice of life, change
now and then is relished by the best
of men. The amusement seeking pa
tron of the Grand will have an op-
portunity on next Monday night when
the Boston Bellies make their appear
ance, of seeing an attraction that real
ly is change from anything ever seen
here before. Although this piece has
been out for a number of years, the
management has discovered the piece
is everlasting, the public clamor for it,
so this season the whole show is new
except of course the title. The inter
preting company is of unusual mag
nitude and Importance, while the sec
ondary roles are in capable keeping.
! Extraordinary care has been taken in
the selection of the chorus. Youth
and prepossessing appearance being
made essential, and every type of
feminine loneliness is introduced.
Surprises are frequent and enjoyable
through the performance and there
is commendable dash, brilliancy and
sparkle leaving only pleasant memoir
les of pretty girls. sweet singers. com
edians. dainty dancers, gorgeous cos
tunes and sumptuous scenic display.

Sometimes it is desirable to plate
large castings with copper or other
metal but it is impracticable because
of the large sized vat which would
be necessary. The new method of APP

may thus be built up to any desired

found successful in plating with sill

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.

The Massachusetts state commits
sion on industrial education, in re-
cent report, takes the position that
industrial education can not be sue
cessfully connected with schools hav-
ing general education as their main
object.
Commenting on this report, the
Boston Traveller says: I'm the coun-
tries where industrial education has
been tried, it has only been success
full when it was divorced from the
regular cultural school course The
Young Mems Christian association
industrial education courses, for ex-
are managed by men who are aiming
to make boys good carpenters or
chauffeurs or whatever they wish to
become and not trying to teach them
English, geography and arithmetic,
with a smattering of fads on the side
which is miscalled manual training,
but has no practical benefits. If the
industrial education idea which is to
give the boy or girl something that
will help them to earn living, is
worth trying out ar all, it should be
given a faIr triai, and this it can
never receive unde, the control OF
the state board of education"
Massachusetts has had larger eX-
perience in the field of industrial
education than any other state in
the union. having successfully main
tanned schools for imparting such in
struction for a great many years,
and the position taken by the com
mission will command the serious
attention of friends of such education
everywhere.
The Post has more than once ur-
ged the Importance of the largest
possible state aid to the cause of
industrial education, and in doing
so has insisted that the course of
study should be so simplifed as to
be fully adapted to the practical
purposes for which such education

dents for the learned professions.

he set out to do The vast value and
Importance of Edison's great triumph
to the great mass of small-salaried
workers in village and city can
scarcely be realized. BY using the
casts which Edison has perfected, 1t
will be possible to reduce the cost
of cement houses many times. 1t will
be possible to build houses at the
rate of 500 per room, including
foundations and every accessory. 1t
will make the cost of cement houses
so small that owners can afford to
rent ten-room houses at s. month.
And the houses will be more sani-
tary, convenient and safe than the
great majority of homes now occu-
pied by the poorer classes especially
in the great over-crowded centers.
