SA s HOME IS
WOMAN'S SPHERE
Ex-PreSident Of Harvard Be-
IieVeS She Can Get EduCa-
ton There

CAMBRIDGE, Dec. S-Charles w.
Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard
University, believes that home-making
should be the crowning desire of wo-
man. In an interview he declared
that for the normal woman tho real
intellectual existence was TO be found
in tho exercises of her mind upon the
problems presented by home-making
companionship with her husband and
the vital problems Of the rearing Of
children.
'There is a common idea" said Dr.
Eliot. that 60 procure for herself an
intellectual life, as distinguished from
a life of sentimental or mechanical
routine, woman needs to have some
occupation similar to those of men
that is. she needs 10 keep a shop. carry
on business, have some trade or pro-
fession, be skillful in some art which
has a commercial use or be a profess
sional artist or writer. Tho common
life of woman is bearing on rearing
children and making a home for a
family is not thought Of as affording
the wife and mother the means and
opportunity for an intellectual develop
ment
ct do not think this is rational
view. II does not conform to the real
experience of n woman of good parts
who marries at "A or thereabouts and
brings up a family Of nve or six chill
dren.
There is 10 question that a woman
who does not pursue the natural and
common vocation of women may enjoy
an intellectual life IN employments
similar TO those which procure for men
largo and enjoyable intellectual de-
velopment MANY such exceptional
women can follow with satisfaction
the ordinary professions for men, keep
shops, carry on business, labor for
churches. schools and charitable socic-
ties. and take an active part in the
various social movements which are
Dhrthered by public discussion and tho
active stimulation Of public opinion
but these exceptional women WILL as a
| rule. contribute far less to the real
progress and development of man than
the normal women whose intellectual
opportunities they are apt TO under
rate.
"rhe normal girl. who learns to read,
write and cipher at school and ac-
quires there a little knowledge Of his
tory and literature and taste for read
ing, finds her means of intellectual de-
velopment outside of the schoolroom in
her practice Of the household arts in
her study of clothes for herself and
her family, in her enforced careful ex-
penditure OF money, i'm reading. and in
her daily intercourse with father and
mother, brothers and sisters, COM
panions and acquaintances.
In imparting training TO tho children
tho mother herself practices keen OBJ
servation, the comparative study Of her
different children, patience, and gentle
decisiveness, which is quite as much
an intellectual as a moral trait The
mother Of several children--four fve
or six-has better opportunities Of de-
veloping her own intellectual life than
the mother OF one child or two children,
because in "A large family there are al
ways differences of disposition and ca
I pacity among the children, and the
| children react on each other and on
! their mother in more interesting
ways"

pretty girls, who operate the music apparatus
as they work.
And then there is the electric girl, who
gives a shock every time you shake hands

And there, as big as life, is Teddy in

and then, 10! the seat suddenly becomes a

A falling statue, with a chair a safe distance
away, is another scare-producing stunt to try

while you are seated in the chair.
Possibly the best fun in one park is the
stunt of walking the spar, which is 25 feet

releases a huge jumping-jack six feet tall.

ORIGIN
OF a Famous Human Food.

The story of the great discoveries
or inventions is always of interest.
An active brain worker who found
himself 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
rious foods and their effects upon the
human system. In other words, be-
fore he could carry out his plans he
had to find a food that would carry
him along and renew his physical and
mental strength.
He knew that a food which was a
brain and nerve builder (rather than
a mere fat maker) vas 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 Albumen
and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solve
the problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts, the now famous
food. 1t contains the brain and nerve
building food elements in condition
for easy digestion.
The result of eating Grape-Nuts
daily is easily cen in a marked sturdi-
ness and marked activity of the brain
and v system, making it a
pleasure for one to carry on the daily
duties without fatigue or exhaustion.
Grape-Nuts food is in no sense a
stimulant but is simply food which
renews and replaces the daily waste
of brain and nerves.
Its favour is charming and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory it is served instantly with
cream.
The signature of the brain worker
| spoken of, G.. w. Post, is to be seen on
| each genuine package of Grape-Nuts.
