Not Afraid Of a Ghost.

In village in England. a month or
so ago a man came running into an
inn at nine o'clock AT night and cried
out that there WAS ghost In his back
yard. There were II men in the inn,
and not one of them dared TO 90 home
with the man and investigate. There
was a person who dared. however and
that was the landlords daughter. a girl
of II. Some of the men followed her
at distance. and she went into the
yard and up TO the ghost Tapping its
arms about, and disCovered-wha,?
That 1t was no more nor less than a

NO MEDICINE
But Change Of Food Gave Relief.

Many persons are learning that
drugs are not the thing to rebuild
worn out nerves, but proper food is
required.
There is certain element in the
cereals, wheat, barley, etc, which is
grown there by nature for food to brain
and nerve tissue. This is the phos-
phate Of potash, of which Grape Nuts
food contains large proportion.
In making this food all the food ele-
ments in the two cereals, wheat and
barley, are retained. That is why so
many heretofore nervous and run down
people find in Grape-Nuts true nerve
and brain food.
Il can say that Grape-Nuts food has
done much for me as a nerve renew.
err" writes a Wis. bride.
"a few years ago, before my mar
riage, I was bookkeeper in a large
firm. I became SO nervous toward the
end Of each week that it seemed I
must give up my position, which I
could not afford to do.
Mother purchased some Grape-Nuts
and we found 1t not only delicious but
l noticed from day to day that I was
improving until I finally realized I was
not nervous any more.
Il have recommended 1t to friends
as brain and nerve food, never hav
ing found its equal. owe much to
