SENSE ABOUT FOOD
Facts About Food Worth Knowing,

It is serious question sometimes
to know just what to eat when q per-
sons stomach Is out Of order, and
most foods cause trouble.
Grape-Nuts food can be taken at
any time with the certainty that it
will digest. Actual experience, of peo-
pie is valuable 70 aay one interested
In foods.
A Tcrre IIautc woman writes: II
had suffered with indigestion for
about four years, ever since at attack
of typhoid fever. and at times could
cat nothing but the very lightest food
and then suffer such agony with my
stomach I would wish I never had to
eat anything.
II was urged to try Grape-Nuts,
and since using It I do not have to
starve myself any more, but can eat
1t at any time and feel nourished and
satisfied: dyspepsia is a thing Of the
past. and am now strong and well.
my husband also had an exper-
ience with Grape-Nuts. He was very
weak and sickly in the spring. Could
not attend 10 his work. He was nut
under the doctors care; hut medicine
did not seem to do him any good un-
til he began to leave off ordinary food
and use GrapeNuts. 1t was positive
ly surprising to see the change in
him. He grew better right of, md
naturally he has none but words of
praise for Grape-Nuts.
Our boy thinks he cannot eat q
meal without Grape-Nuts. and he
learns so fast at school that his teach
er and other scholars comment on It.

It contains the phosphate of potash

1t is pity that people do not know
what to feed their children. There are
many mothers who give their young
sters almost any kind of food. and
when they become sick begin to pour
the medicine down them. The real
way is to stick to proper food and be
healthy and get along without medi-

Social Relationship.
VERY few American women know
French or other foreign languages. l
did not meet any women who were
judges of art or literature, on any
who knew how to paint or draw. An
other thing that struck me was the
mixture OF Puritanism and freedom in
social relationship. The relations ex-
lsting between young men and women
would give rise to all sorts of scandal
Gus results in Europe. There we find
nothing of the sort-partly, perhaps,
owing to the American woman's cold
temperament, partly to public opinion.
which puts all the blame on the man.
"One result of their democracy is
their respect for labor. There, where
every kind of work is equally re-
spected and held sacred, workers are
not divided into higher and lower
classes of the community. We Eu-
ropeans have not the least idea 81
the extent to which labor is respected
in America, and in this respect Amer
lea stands immeasurably higher than
any European nation. To be frank, a
man in Europe who goes in for manual
labor is looked down upon by those
who do not work; he loses his caste,
they exclude him from the class he
once belonged to-if he comes from
what We call the upper classes There
is none of that in America. There
classes, according to our ideas, do
not exist-only different kinds of bust
nesses' exist, and the gentleman who
makes boots is as much respected as
the gentleman who earns his living as
a lawyer, and this for the simple and
mistaken reason that public opinion
makes not the slightest difference be-
tween a respectable bootmaker and
respectable lawyer.
"And herein you will find the key to
American democracy. In general,
though I did not shut my eyes to the
Americans bad qualities, / must say
that the more I studied them the more

Widespread American Culture.
"But in America, whereas, perhaps,
general science and culture do not
reach such height in individuals or
in one particular class as here in Eu-
rope, to make up for it this culture is
far more widespread-nay, there is no
comparison between the universally

much does it exceed ours. And this is
what is called American democracy.

then we ought to cast it away and re-

that widespread civilization does con-

only affirm that, taking one country

that America the democratic is near

Of all human truths we may take this
one as the least doubtful, that the de-

anybody doubts this he has only to
take statistics of crime from the first
nation that falls to his hand and he
will see the difference between the
number of criminals who are quite H.
literate, those partly educated and
those highly instructed. And if this
be so it is perfectly clear that, since
