Led by the Nose.

An analytical chemist was retained
as a skilled witness some years ago,
where there are questions of analyt.
ical chemistry. There was one case
where a farmer had bought some ar
tificial manure and he was being
sued for the price of 1t. He resisted
payment on the ground that the ma
terial had none of the qualities of
manure at all, The expert chemist
was enc of the witnesses, and had
stated that, although the substance
had the smell, Il had none Of the
chemical qualities of anure. Under
eross.eyamination he was asked, II
thai was SO. how did he account for
hundreds of the best farmers having
taken the manure for many years.
They must have been led by the
nose" returned the witness.

Here was a woman who could, if she
wished, and had any motive for so
doing, put me in Jail under q capital

Then, too, she could say that she
had seer me, just after the wreck,

bring Alison West into the case.
1t is not surprising, then, that l ate

The day had been hot, and the first

of the palms and fans which attempted
to simulate the verdure and breezes

that he insisted on going over to join
them. But their table was full, and
somehow that kind of fun had lost its
point for me.
Not far from us a very stout, mid
dle-aged man, apoplectic with the
heat, was elephantinely jolly for the
benefit of a bored-looking girl across

table a newspaper woman ate alone,

with treating the sick, but that we

hygienic and dietetic laws.
with such a feeling as to my duty

public that in my own experience and
also from personal observation / have
found no food equal to Grape-Nuts.
and that | find there is almost no limit
to the great benefits this food will
bring when used in all cases of sick
ness and convalescence.
1T IS my experience that no physi.
cal condition forbids the use of Crane
Nuts. To persons in health there Ia
nothing so nourishing and acceptable
to the stomach. especially at break.

man system on the days work.
