What About Brain FOOd?I
This Question Came Up in the Recent
Trial for Libel.

law of affinity. all things needed to manufac-
ture the elixir of nfe." ~
Further on he says: "Ths beginning and end
of the matter is to supply the lacking princi-
pie, and in molecular form, exactly as nature
furnishes it in vegetables, fruits and grain.
To supply defciencies-this is the only law of
cure"
The natural conclusion il that If Phosphate
Of Potash is the needed mineral element in
brain and you use food which does not contain
it, you have brain flag because its daily loss is
not supplied.
On the contrary, II you eat food known to
be rich in this element, you place before the
life forces that which nature demands for
brain-building.
In tie trial a sneer was uttered because Mr..
Post announced that he had made years of re-
search in this country and some clinics of
Europe, regarding the effect Of the mind on
digestion of food.
But we must be patient with those who
sneer at facts they know nothing about.
Mind does not work well on a brain that is
broken down by lack of nourishment.
A peaceful and evenly poised mind is neces-
sary to good digestion.
b Worry, anxiety, fear, hate, &C., &c, directly
interfere with or stop the flow of Ptyalin, the
digestive juice of the mouth, and also inter-
fere with the flow OF the digestive juices of
stomach and pancreas.
Therefore, the mental state Of the individual
has much to do (more than suspected) with
digestion.

Had Money In lumps.

Charles II. Rosenberg of Bavaria
had Jumps on his shoulders, elbows,
and hips when he arrived here from
Hamburg on the Kaiserin Auguste Vic
toria. In fact, there "a a series of
smaller Jumps along his spine, much
like a mountain range, as it is present
ed on a bas-relief map.
The Jumps were about the size of
good Oregon apples, and as Rosen-
berg passed before the immigration
doctor for observation, the doctor said
softly to himself, See that lump"
Then he asked Mr.. Rosenberg to step
aside.
You seem like a healthy man.
said the doctor, but / cannot pass you

Taking off his coat he broke open a
sample lump and showed that it con

He informed the doctor that he had
$11, 900 in all, with which he was go

A weekly printed some criticisms OF the
claims made for our foods. 1t evidently did
not fancy our reply printed In various news
papers, and brought suit for libel. At the trial
some interesting facts came out.
Some Of the chemical and medical experts
differed widely.
The following facts. however, were quite
clearly established:
Analysis of brain by an unquestionable au-
thority, Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts,
Phosphoric Acid and Potash combined (Phos-
phate of Potash, POI per cent of the total,

This is over one-half.
Beaunis, another authority, shows "Phos-

Analysis Of Grape-Nuts shows Potassium
and Phosphorus, (Which join and make Phos-

one-half of all the mineral salts in the food.
DIR. Geo. w. Carey, an authority on the con-
~stituent elements of the body, says: The
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic c~ell-salt, Potassium Phosphate
phosphate of Potash). This salt unites with
albumen and by the addition of oxygen creates
nerve fluid or the gray matter of the brain.
OF course, there is a trace of other salts and
other organic matter in nerve fluid, but Potas-

Mosiem Traditions.

Ramadan is the month exalted by
Moslems above all others. In that
month the Koran-according to Mos
lem tradition-was brought down by
Gabriel from heaven and delivered to
men in small sections. In that month,
Mohammed was accustomed to retire
from Mecca to the cave of Hira. for
prayer and meditation. In that month
Abraham, Moses and other prophets
received their divine revelations. In
that month the doors Of heaven are
always open, the passages to hell are
shut, and the devils are chained" So
run the traditions.-The Christian

The League Of Politeness.

The League of P%oliteness has been
formed in Berlin. 1t aims at inculcat
ing better manners among the people
of Berlin. 1t was founded upon the
initiative OF Fraulein Cecelie Meyer,
who was inspired by an existing or
g%anization in Rome. In Difference to
the parent organization the Berlin
league has chosen the Italian motto,
PRO gentilezza." This will be en-
blazoned Upon an attractive little
medal worn where Germans are ac-
customed to wear the insignia Of or
ders. The idea is that a GLANCE at
the "talisman" will annihilate any in
clination to indulge in bad temper or
~discourteous language. ANY polite
person is eligible for membership.
