being softened with milk or cream
for babies or the aged when deficiency
Of teeth renders mastication impos-
sible. For fever patients or those on
liquid diet find 'Grape-Nuts and albu-
mep water very nourishing and re.
freshing.' %,-
This recipe is my own idea and is
made as follows: Soak q .teaspoonful
Of Grape-Nuts in glass Of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white OF an egg and spoonful
OF fruit Juice for havouring. This af-
fords great deal of nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can assim-
ilate without any distress.
MY husband is . physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders 1t
many times for his patients.
Personally regard dish Of Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or
sick"
In any case Of stomach trouble. ncrv-
Gus prostration or brain fag. 10 day

toward nourishing and rebuilding and
in this way ending the trouble.

SALOONS OPEN ON SUNDAY.

Thirsty Ones.

FLINT. Mich, May 3.-The saloons
of Flint did a rushing business yester-
day but no heavy stuff" tickled the
palates OF the thirsty. Ginger ale,
coca cola, root beer, pop. lemonade,
lemon sour and other soft drinks were
dished out with lavish hand, and
while these beverages were pretty thin
for some OF the customers whose faces
told sad story as they drank, they
proved very good substitutes for the
real stuff.
The sight was a strange one. II has
been half a century or more since
Flint people have seen their saloons
so wide open on Sunday. IL was surely
a peculiar thing for the townspeople.
