If sickness, if a certain hidden nerve
goes wrong, then the organ that this
nerve controls will also surely fail. It
may be a Stomach nerve, or it may
have given strength and support to the
Heart or Kidneys. 1t was DIR. Shoop
that first pointed to this vital truth.
DR.. Shoop's Restorative was not made
to dose the Stomach nor to temporarily
stimulate the Heart or Kidneys. That
old-fashioned method is all wrong.
DR.. Shops Restorative goes directly
to these failing inside nerves. The re.
markable success of this prescription
demonstrates the wisdom of treating the
actual cause of these failing organs.
And it is indeed easy to prove. A
simple five or ten days test will surely
tell. Try it once and see! Sold by

Ito Cook Cereals Perfectly.

To cook oatmeal or any kind of cerea
as thoroughly as it needs to be cooked
requires more time than can usually be
given in our hurried breakfast getting
and not all Of US are blessed, as yet, with
fireless cooker to do the work over
night.
So the best substitute is to put the
cereal on the stove at supper time, let II
come to a good boil, then turn the fire
out and leave 1t in that same spot unit
breakfast time without lifting the lid
The heat already generated will finist
cooking the grains so that all that need:
to be done in the morning is to stir il
from the bottom, add little water
possibly, and reheat for serving.
OF course the vessel must be of crock
cry, enamel lin which there are nc
breaks) or aluminium, for the food to bt
left in it 80 long, and the lid must be al
tight as possible, to retain the steam
which does 80 much of the work. Blu
this method is great time and gai
saver, and the cereal is much more di
gestible than when cooked by quick
boiling. 1t is the freless cooker ides
applied to common utensils.
