Kisses, though quite within the

RICH INSANE CARED FOR FREE
Head of MassilIon, o., Asylum Holds
that Their Estates Should be
Made to Maintain Them.

Massillon, O.-The state will levy
on the estates of insane inmates
of Ohio asylums for the cost
of caring for them, in cases where
they have property. if the next legis-
lature enacts bill to be drafted by
DR.. H. c. Eyman, superintendent of
the Massillon state hospital. DR.. Ey-
man says the state is caring without
charge for insane patients who have
large estates out of which their main
tenance should be paid. He cites
cases of inmates worth many thou
sands of dollars for whom the state is
not paid for either their board, nurs-
ing or clothes.
He says that in one institution there
is the son of millionaire who con-
tends that his heir is entirely inca
pacitated and useless to society, and
for that reason the state should main
tain him. "At least $3.50 year, the
per capita cost for keeping patients
in the Massillon hospital, should be
charged against the estates of these
men," DR.. Eyman contends. This
would tighten the taxpayers burden.
Such law is in effect in Michigan.

palate ian essential in food for the

being softened with milk or cream
for babies or the aged when deficiency
of teeth renders mastication impos=

liquid diet find 'Grape-Nuts and alba.
men water very nourishing and re-
freshing.'
This recipe is my own idea and is
made as follows Soak a teaspoonful
of Grape-Nuts in glass of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white of an egg and spoonful
of fruit juice for fiavouring. This af-
fords great deal Of nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can assim-
ilate without any distress.
my husband is a physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders 1t
many times for his patients.
Personally regard a dish of Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or
sick"
In any case of stomach trouble, nerv-

leaves the west portal Of the tunnel
it is conducted through 12 miles Of
