MEMORY mENoINe.
What Food Alone Can Do for the
Memory.

The influence of food upon the brain
and memory Is so little understood
that people are inclined to marvel at
it
Take a person who has been living
on improperly selected food and put
him upon a scientific diet in which
the food Grape-Nuts is largely used
and the increase Of mental power that
follows is truly remarkable.
a Canadian who was sent TO Colo
RADIO for his health illustrates this
point in most convincing manner:
One year ago l came from Canada
a nervous wreck, so my physician
said, and reduced in weight to al
most a skeleton and my memory was
so poor that conversations had to be
repeated that had taken place only
few hours before. / was unable
to rest day Or night for my nervous
system was shattered.
The change of climate helped me
little but it was soon seen that
this was not all that l needed. ! re-
CURED the proper selection OF food
although l did not realize it until
a friend recommended Grape-Nuts 10
me and l gave this food a thorough
trial Then | knew what the right
food could do and | began to change
in my feelings and bodily condition.
This kept up until now after six
months use of Grape-Nuts all my ner
yOus trouble has entirely disappear
ed, l have gained in flesh all that
/ had lost and what is more wonder
tul to me than anything else my
memory is as good as it ever was.
''GTape-Nuts has remade me all
over, mind and body, when / never
expected to be well and happy again
There's d Reason"
Look for the famous little book
The Road to MELVILLE" in pkgs
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest.

POWDER BETTER THAN SOAP.

Soap in powder form is the modern

Cold Dust. one Of the first and the best

Fire and Water Sale.

Rarely, if ever, has st. Johnsbury seen
such a crowd of shoppers, practically all
women, as turned out on Thursday
morning to attend James Ritchie's fire
and water sale at Stanley opera house.
The crowd was not at it's worst when
the doors opened at half past eight but
goodly number came in on the train from
the east and still more on the mail from
the north, and before nine o'clock the
doors had to be closed and new corners
admitted only when others lett. 1t was
a Jolly crowd however that lined up,
reaching out into Central street, and
there was no pushing or attempting to
get into another's place. Everyone was
happy and waited patiently for her
chance.
Within the hall confusion reigned and
a force of so clerks found it utterly i'm
possible to satisfy the requirements of
their customers. When the train from
the south came in another crowd poured
into the hall One extra car was attach
ed to the train south and two to the
train north and all the passengers were
shopping-intent. Mr.. Richie was well
satisfied with the first days sales but
regrets that there was not double the
number of clerks on hand.
All the other stores in town benefited
by the sale and all the merchants report
an almost unprecedented sale of goods on
that day. The sale will be continued
until further notice.

State Industrial School.
Boys and Girls Receive Good Training
There.-Diphtheria Under Control.

Judge J. E. Weeks, member OF the
state board OF penal institutions, states
that there have been about 60 cases OF
diphtheria this fall at the State Indus
trial school at Vergennes. A strict
quarantine has been maintained and it
is thought that the epidemic is now COM
pletely under control. None OF the cases
have been fatal.
There are now 100 children at the
institution, 40 of whom are girls. They
are all compelled to attend school
through the eighth grade but some are
more ambitious and do not drop their
studies at that stage. There are now
seven members of the institution in the
Vergennes high school. Their tuition is
paid by the state, but Judge Weeks is OF
the opinion that this expense should be
borne by the towns from which the
children are committed.
Upon leaving school manual instruc-
ton is provided in butter making, milk
testing, printing and shoemaking.
Carpentry and plumbing will be taken up
soon. All the shoes for the boys at the
school are made on the grounds.
The farm work is also carried on by
the boys and excellent crops nave
been harvested this year, including IT'S
tons of hay, 525 bushels of potatoes,
525 bushels of oats, 1900 bushels OF
beets, 1000 head of cabbage, 100 bushels
of onions, 60 bushels of beans and loo
bushels of corn besides large amount
cut up for ensilage
Judge Weeks says that the school is
becoming almost too popular. Most OF
the boys are happy and contented there;
Recently girl was given three weeks
vacation to visit her mother. She return
ed in two weeks, preferring the associa-
tions of the school to those of her home
The children are more like one big con,
tented family than inmates of penal
institution, and probably 70 per cent. OF
them do not know what it is to be con-
fined behind barred doors.
An honor list is kept and when a boy
or girl have stayed at the school long
enough to prove themselves worthy OF
confidence they are often hired out to
parties known to be trustworthy ano
ofkindly disposition. Their wages are
deposited in savings bank and return
ed to them when their period OF service
expires.

FRAGRANCE of Hav,

The agreeable odor Of freshly cut hay
is impaired to it by certain plants Of
the family Of the labiates, such as the
salad burnet, woodruff, sweet trefoil,
etc, but in particular by the so called
spring grass or vernal grass (Anthox-
Rntum odoratum). This latter is a very
precocious gramina that hourishes as
early as the end Of April or the be-
ginning Of May. 1t grows in low and
thick tufts and thrives chiefly in fresh
and shaded ground.
Now, should you ask us whence this
odor of the spring grass which to hay
imparts its fragrance, it is due to the
aromatic principle called coumarin by
the chemists. This substance Is also
extracted from the above mentioned
plants in which 1t appears In appre-
ciable quantities and used in the man
ufacture Of perfumes as we'll as In
medicines in the form of sedative and
carminative pastes and sirups against
bronchitis, whooping cough, etc.
