People can live in a temperature
which feels from ten to twenty degrees
cooler than their neighbors enjoy, by
regulating the diet.
The plan is to avoid meat entirely for
breakfast; use a goodly allowance of
fruit, either fresh or cooked. Then fol-
low with saucer containing about four
heaping teaspoonfuls of Grape Nuts,
treated with little rich cream. Add to
this about two slices of crisp toast with
a meager amount of butter, and one
cup of well-made Postum.
BY this selection of food the bodily
energy is preserved, while the hot, car
bonaceous foods have been left out.
The result is a very marked difference
in the temperature of the body, and
to this comfortable condition is added
the certainty of ease and perfect diges-
ton, for the food being partially pre-
digested is quickly assimilated by the
digestive machinery.
Experience and experiment in food.
and its application to the human body
has brought out these facts. They
can be made use Of and add materially
to the comfort of the user.

SLUMP IN THE AUTO BUSINESS
Bottom Seems to Have Dropped Out
Notwithstanding Boosting Efforts
of Manufacturers.

New York.-Indications point to the
bottom having fallen out of the auto
mobile business. The manufacturers,
it is reported in trade circles, are
making strenuous efforts to keep up
a show of continued prosperity, but
it is also said that they are not sell
ing their product, but are storing ma
chimes throughout the country at their
various agencies to prevent the pub
lie realizing the true conditions of
the market.
Several large concerns are laying
off men and giving all sorts of rea-
sons for so doing except the state
ment that they are overstocked. Two
or three of the largest factories re-
Gently closed entirely, ostensibly for
the purpose of taking inventory, but
the workmen were not given any def
mite time at which to again report for
work, and it is not expected that
these factories will again be in oper-
alton this year.
A well-known automobile agent OF
this city said yesterday that all cars
would undoubtedly be selling at from
25 per cent. to so per cent. less than
present list prices within the next
two or three months. He added:
THE trouble with the automobile
business is that the farmers and peo-
pie of the smaller cities and towns
have not taken as kindly to the idea
as was anticipated. The farmers find
that the cost of keeping them in re-
pair and operation is more than the
cost of keeping horses to perform the
same work, and while there was, for
a time. tendency among the farmers
to invest in the machines, the demand
for cars from this class of buyers has
practically stopped. and | venture to
say we viii not again sell to the farm
ers 10 any extent until prices are ma
terially reduced"

THE BEST OF ITS KIND

Is always advertised, in fact it only pays
to advertise good things. When you see
an article advertised in this paper year
after year you can be absolutely certain
that there is merit to it because the CON
tinued sale of any article depends upon
merit and to keep on advertising one
must keep on selling. All good things
have imitators, but limitations are not ad-
vertised. They have no reputation TO sus-
tain, they never expect TO have any per
manent sale and your dealer would never
sell them If he studied your interests.
Sixteen years ago Aliens Foot-Ease, the
antiseptic Powder for the feet, was first
sold, and through newspaper advertising
and through people telling each other
what a good thing 1t was for tired and
aching feet 1t has now permanent sale.
and nearly 200 so-called foot powders
have been put on the market with the
hope of profting by the reputation which
has been built up for Aliens Foot-Ease.
When you ask for an article advertised
in these papers see that you get it. Avoid
substitutes
