After using laxative and cathartic

stipation yielded to the scientific food.
Grape-Nuts, in few days.
From early childhood / suffered
with such terrible constipation that l
had to use 1axatives continuously go

"A prominent physician whom con-
suited told me the muscles of the di-

work without help of some kind so

every laxative and cathartic known,

digested food, Grape-Nuts.
Although I had not expected this
food to help my trouble, to my great
surprise Grape-Nuts digested imme-
diately from the first and in a few
days I was convinced that this was
just what my system needed.

ging the gaily lighted city into utter
darkness. The pride of Paris-her
boulevarGs-took on the appearance
of country streets and their grandeur
and magnificence were made gro
tesque by hastily devised means of
lighting. After a short experience of
this inconvenience the authorities
yielded to Pataud's demands.
In June last he made another at
tempt, but the previous lesson was
still fresh in the minds of the authori-
ties and they quickly acceded to his
demands. By this time, however, many

planned to place themselves beyond
his autocratfc control. They provided
themselves with electric lighting
plants of their own, and rested con-
tent, believing that so far as they were
concerned they were safe. Nonunion
men were placed in charge of the
plants and the proprietors were in a
position to defy Pataud
Pataud was born in a small town
outside Paris in 1869. His parents
were poor and his early life was full of
privations. He had little or no school
ing and was put to work while still
young His parents selected the trade
of bricklaying for him, but he pre-
ferred electricity and entered an cleo
trical shop. While yet boy he organ
lied the employees and as their spokes-
man secured better pay and shorter
hours from their employer. News of
his success spread rapidly among the
workmen of Paris and five years ago
he was made the ruler of the electri-
clans trade union.
