SURPRISED HIM
Doctors Test Of Food.

A doctor In Kansas experimental
with his boy in a test of food and
gives the particulars. He says:
Il naturally watch the effect of diff.
ferent foods on patients. My own lit.
tie son, lad of four, had been Ill
with pneumonia and during his conva.
lescence did not seem to care for any
kind of food.
II knew something of Grape-Nuts
and Its rather fascinating flavor, and
particularly of its nourishing and
nerve-building powers, SO l started the
boy on Grape-Nuts and found from
the first dish that he liked it.
His mother gave 1t to him steadily
and he began to improve at once. In
less than month he had gained
about eight pounds and soon became
so we'll and strong we had no further
anxiety about him.
IAN old patient Of mine, 70 years
old, came down with serious stomach
trouble and before | was called had
got so weak he could eat almost moth
ing, and was in serious condition.
He had tried almost every kind of
food for the sick without avail.
Il Immediately put him on Grape.
Nuts with good, rich milk and just a
little pinch Of sugar. He exclaimed
when came next day Why doctor
never ate anything so good or that
made me feel so much stronger
II am pleased to say that he got
well on Grape-Nuts, but he had to
stick to 1t for two or three weeks,
then he began to branch out little
with rice or an egg or two. He got
entirely well in spite of his almost
hopeless condition. He gained %
pounds in two months which at his
age is remarkable.

COSTLY prize OFFERED.
w. X. Kellogg Of Battle Creek, MIch-
Gives a $1,000 Trophy to Be Com.
peted for by the Farmers.

81 j
BATTLE CREEK, Mich, July 2S.--Tor
the purpose of stimulating the interest Of
the farmers of the country in the inn
provement Of the grade Of corn and in Sc
curing q greater yield, w. X. Kellogg Of
this city has offered gold and silver
trophy to be competed for at the third
annual national corn exposition to be held
at Omaha, Neb, Dec. 6 to Is of this year.
The trophy will be known as the w. X.
Kellogg National Corn Exposition trophy,
will cost $1,000, and will become the per-
sonal property Of any exhibitor winning it
twice. The trophy will be in the shape
of a massive vase, and will probably be
designed and built by either Gorham or
Tiffany.
Mr.. Kellogg has just returned from Chi
cago where he held conference with Pro-
lessor p. G. Holden Of the Iowa State Ag-
ricultural College at Ames and Stanley
Clague, head of large Chicago advertis-
ing agency. Professor Holden is known Us
the foremost authority of the country on
corn growing, and Mr.. Kellogg, who is a
large manufacturer of food products made
from corn, is keenly interested in all move
ments tending to improve the quality Of
the cereal. This year he has donated
81 900 to be divided in several prizes
among the corn growers Of Iowa, and at
Professor Holden's suggestion, he decided
to offer the Kellogg trophy to be competed
for by the corn growers Of the nation.
Corn is the greatest crop Of the coun-
try" said Mr.. Kellogg today, "and the big
ger the yield Of corn the greater the coun-
try's prosperity. Seed selection and i'm
proved methods of cultivation will not only
greatly increase the yield per acre, but will
also increase the protein in the corn and
thus enhance its nutritious qualities. If
the yield per acre, for instance, can be in
creased five bushels in the state of Ne
braska alone, it will add S25,000000 to the
wealth of the farmers of the state. The
National Corn Exposition is doing a great
glad to help the work along"

there to attend a civil reception in his
honor The Frenchman was mobbed
by the enormous crowds and the po-
lice had to come to his protection.
so eager were the enthusiasts to
greet him at close quarters
A similar ovation awaited the avla-
tor in London, his compatriots having
gathered at Victoria station in huge
numbers. With the help of the police
he finally succeeded in getting away
and reached his hotel, where he was
presented with the check at lunch
con party.
Paul Camdon, the French ambassa-
dor at London, was present and warm.
ly congratulated his compatriot. The
British army was largely represented,
and besides War Secretary Haldane
there were Colonel Capper, head Of
the aeronautic work of the army.
When NJ. Bleriot arrived, Mr.. Hal
dane was the first to felicitate him.
Speaking in French, the secretary OF
war congratulated the aviator on his
magnificent success, which, he said
would give him a place in history as
all by itself to have crossed the Eng
lish channel was an event marking a
new era. "You did 1t with wonderful
ease" added Mr.. Haldane, because
you had great courage"
M. Bleriot managed to get out a
broken accented Thank YOU" but
made no further attempt to speak in
English. Speaking his mother ton.
que, he attributed his success to an
immense amount Of preliminary work
and said he was profoundly touched
by the warmth of his welcome, which
he thought was quite we'll In proper
ton to what he had accomplished.
M. Bleriot was handed the one
thousand pounds in bank notes In a
splendid silver cup.
1t was announced at the luncheon
that the Aero club Of Great Britain
had decided to present M. Bleriot with
a gold medal similar to the one con-
ferred on Wilbur and Orville Wright,
the American aeroplanists, In London
last May.
Bleriot seems to have seized a
large part of the populace of London.
Those unable to see the flyer himself
have been besieging the store where
the compact little monoplane Is IN
stalled among other travelling re-
quisites, the machine being so small
it looks like large toy rather than
a practical flyer.
Numerous honors and medals are
awaiting NJ. Bleriot on this side of
the channel, the principal prize be.
ing a gold cup offered by Captain
Wyndham for the first flight across
the English channel.
