COLLEGE GRADUATE
Found Clear Thinking Assured by
Right Food.

A college student should know that
clear thinking comes easiest from a
brain well and properly fed.
Il have now been using Grape Nuts
steadily four years and, having passed
the experimental and over-enthusiastic
stage, I feel sure of myself and have
settled down to a solid basis of fact.
This / have derived largely from that
excellent little booklet, The Road to
MELVILLE" which 1 have largely adopt
ed as my faithful guide in matters per-
tanning to eating, exercise and health
in general.
ION first reading the booklet / was
struck with its plain common sense
and, moreover, found that it was in
harmony with physiology and psychol-
ogy so far as l had learned them in nv
study of these subjects at college
For at least ten years before be-
gan to eat Grape-Nuts. 1 had been ac-
customed to eating freely of fried
meats, white bread, biscuits and what
not, with resultant headaches, some
dizziness and an appetite that was ca
PRECIOUS and uncertain. All this. too,
seemed to affect my brain and nervous
system, for, while engaged in study /
found it hard to concentrate my
thoughts.
Il couli think very well for a little
while, but soon grew restless and in
attentive. Nor can 1 emphasize too
much the change that I have brought
about by adopting rational habits in
food and exercise.
There Is now an elasticity in my
muscular system, a steadiness of nerve,
and an ability to think continuously
along a given line, that 1 prize most
highly and which / attribute to the use
of Grape Nuts food" There's a Red-
SON."

London, March 1.-THE active menace
Of socialism," with which Great Britain
is confronted. was a prominent and strik-
ing feature of Lord Roseberys presiden-
tial address before the Liberal league this
afternoon. The former premier was dis
cussing the necessity of the leagues I'M
ceasing support of "sane imperialism. -
p which category he included the main,
tenaace OF the policy of free trade. PRO

The speaker foresaw, however, a time

might lead to such enormous pressure
in the way of direct taxation as to make
the nation seek relief by shifting part
of the burden to the taxations of inn
ports. The time might come. but Lord
Rosebery said he trusted. to God it would
never, when the Liberals would be forced
to choose between allowing the Social
lists to gain the upper hand or allying
themselves with the party of protection
In order to defeat socialism. OF these
two conditions, he. for one. without hest

corruption, but socialism would mean the
end of the empire. religious faith and
freedom and property.
Socialists Got the Kernel.
In the elections of 1867. Lord Rosebery
went on TO say, the country had seen
the Liberals and Conservatives flying dt
each others threats fer the husks, and
letting socialism slip away with the ker-
mel. namely, seats inspariament, and they
had witnessed the tragedy of the Lib
erals fighting under the banner of mo
second chamber" at the very moment
when a second chamber was most neces-
sary in order TO combat socialism. For
merly Great Britain had a strong second
chamber backed by the veto of the SOW
ereign. The veto of the sovereign has
long since disappeared, said Lord Rose
berry. and now it is sought to do away
with the second chamber.
Different in United States.
Contrast this with the conditions in the

element in the constitution. Here we
have nothing but the feeble barrier OF

Il honestly say considering the men

head in this country during the last year
and which is prepared to rear itself On
