Ina is Fond of White Violet.

Queen Mary is not lover OF per

Queen Alexandra very fond Of per

to the "Ess Bouquet" which has
been in use by the royal family OF
England since 1922 This perfume Is
composed of amber mixed with the

orange flowers and lavender.
On the other hand the Czarina Is
passionately fond of perfume. Her
apartments in the royal palace are
daily sprayed with essences of lilac,

Tribute to Painters Skill.

One of the still life paintings by
Jan van Huysen in the museum at
The Hague was recently injured, but
1t is believed the perpetrator was
neither vandal nor thief.
The picture represents basket. of
fruit on which number of insects

pie, which is the centerpiece in the
cluster of fruit, is large fly, painted
so true to nature, so say the officials
of the gallery. that the canvas was
injured by some one who endeavored
to "shoo" it and brought his cane or
hand too close to the canvas. "A
tribute to the painters genius" says
the letter recording the fact, "for which

EAGER TO WORK,
Health Reganed by Right Food.

The average healthy man or woman
is usually eager to be busy at some
useful task or employment.
But let dyspepsia or indigestion get
hold of one, and all endeavor becomes
burden.
"A year ago, after recovering from
an operation" writes a Michigan lady,
my stomach and nerves began to give
me much trouble.

headache. Walking across the room
was an effort and prescribed exercise

Il had seen Grape-Nuts advertised,
but did not believe what l read at the
