Chicago. From there Northcliffe will
go to Newfoundland, where he has
recently purchased large tracts of tim

pulp paper. The paper trust and the
natural shortage of paper drove the
publisher to adopt the policy of home
manufacture.

city.
The Northcliffe party arrived with
the second section of the California

the London Times, is, like the other
members of the party, making his first
visit to California. He will separate
from the party tomorrow and continue

I'VE followed the tariff making in

editor, after he had deprecated the
small amount of space which he con-

significant European news. THE Times
had a special writer on the subject,
Robert Porter, former secretary to
President Mckinley. and we received
daily Geographic reports and finally
published a special edition of "a pages
concerning the tariff. We consider
that In some things the tariff is lower,
but we feel that there is great oppor-

Or a Famous Human Food.

The story Of the great discoveries
or inventions is always of interest
An active brain worker who found
himseh hampered by lack of bodily
strength and vigor and could not carry
out the plans and enterprises he knew
how to conduct, was led to study va.
rlous foods and their effects upon the
human system. In other words he.
fore he could carry out his plans he
mad to find food that would carry
MIN along and renew his physical and
mental strength.
He knew that a food which was q
brain and nerve builder (rather than
mere fat maker) was universally
needed. He knew that meat with the
average man does not accomplish the
desired results. He knew that the
SOFT gray substance in brain and
nerve centers is made from Albumer
and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solve
the problem.

food. 1t contains the brain and nerve

for easy digestion.
The result of eating Grape-Nuts
daily is easily seen in a marked sturdi.
ness and marked activity OF the brain
and nervous system, making IL
pleasure for one to carry on the daily
duties without fatigue or exhaustion
Grape-Nuts food is in no sense
stimulant but ia simply food which
renews and replaces the daily waste
of brain and nerves.
