TALES OFT REPEATED
No Story Is New-AlI Have Been Told
in Every Land and in Every
Cline.

The Troy IN W Times: How stor-
les wander up and down the centuries
from country to country, and, though
they may be repeated with something
Of local color, remain essentially the
same, is theme on which The Boston
Herald dilates, giving these instances:
A rustic In Thomas Hardy's Far From
the Madding Crowd" is lost and he
rushes about shouting his name and
adding Lost man! Lost mani" This
story was told .. a viIlager in Chelsea,
VT, years before Hardy was born. A
friend writes to us from Lucerne, Swift
zerland,, about an American woman
shopping In Lausanne and asking for a
certain kind Of cloth at one of the dry
goods shops. The girl behind the coun-
ter told her they did not keep 1T. The
American was surprised, for she had
bought that kind Of cloth at that very
shop the year before. A floor walker
was summoned, and he said: Eyes. /
know we used to keep 1t, but there was
so much demand for 1t that we had to
give IT up Long ago the story was
told Of a Cape Cod storekeeper who
did not order a fresh supply Of certain
SuouS because In6y were so much in
demand that he was bothered all the
time by having to run to the shelf"
And this simple tale is told in the dis
trict Of Maine and In western Massa-
No doubt it is told wherever
there is village store The Herald
adds another story from the same
sources: This American was in Vienna
about the middle of December and be-
thought him of pocket diary for the
following year. He went to one of the
chief stationers, but all the diaries gave
only the days of the week, or else only
the days of the month, not both "On
my telling him that was looking for
diary that gave both the days of the
week and the days of the month, he ex-
claimed: But that sort of diary would
be ridiculous; it would be good for only
one particular year!' / admitted this
but still insisted that that was the kind
wanted. To which he replied: oh. I
couldn't keep a diary like that; what
should do with those that were left on
ruy hands at the end Of the year?'"

MISCHIEF MAKER
A Surprise In Brooklyn.

An adults food that can save q
baby proves itself to be nourishing and
easily digested and good for big and
little folks. A Brooklyn man says:
When baby was about eleven
months old he began to grow thin and
pale. This was, at first, attributed to
the heat and the fact that his teeth
were coming. but, in reality, the poor
little thing was starving, his mother
milk not being sufficient nourishment
"One day after he had cried bitterly
for an hour. suggested that my wife
try him on Grape-Nuts. She soaked
two teaspoonfuls in a saucer with a
little sugar and warm milk. This baby
ate so ravenously that she fixed a sec
ond which he likewise finished.
1T was not many days before he for
got all about being nursed. and has
since lived almost exclusively on
Grape-Nuts. Today the boy is strong
and robust. and as cute a mischief
maker as a thirteen months old baby
is expected to be.
I'VE have put before him other
foods. but he will have none OF them,
evidently preferring to stick to that
which did him so much good-his old
friend Grape-Nuts.
