ed me to serve ten long years as a
miserable dyspeptic, is rather humil-

length of time and had become a
shadow of my natural self. was
taking medicine all the time and diet
ing the best knew how.
Zone day ! heard of Grape-Nuts
food, in which the starch was predi-
gested by natural processes and that
the food rebuilt the brain and nerve
centers. 1 knew that If my nervous
system could be made strong and
perfect, 1 could digest food all right,
so I started in on Grape-Nuts, with
very little confidence, for 1 had been
disheartened for long time.
ITO my surprise and delight,
found I was improving after living
on Grape-Nuts a little while, and in
three months I had gained IL pounds
and was feeling like a new person.
For the past two years have not had
the slightest symptom of indigestion
and am now perfectly well.
"I made discovery that will be of
Importance to many mothers. When
my infant was two months old it was
being fed on the bottle and was not
doing we'll. I began to feed Grape
Nuts-at first, only the water poured
over-later on, the softened food.
The child began to improve rapidly
and is now a year old and very fat
and healthy and has never been sick.

there is something in Grape-Nuts

Last Years Forest Fires.

Fire played less havoc in the wood
lands of the national forest states last
year than it did in 1908, although the
number of fires were 40 greater. The
department OF agriculture has just
completed the statistics. The protec-
tive value OF the work Of the depart
ment is shown In that Cd almost so
per cent of the fires were extinguIshed
before as much as five acres had been
damaged; CD less than one and one
half acres to the square miles of ma
tional forest land was burned over;
go and the amount of damage done to
the burned over area averaged but
$1.26 per acre.
For the IL months ended Dec 81
last there were 3,13S fires ON the for
ests, 1856 caused by locomotives, 431
by campers, 294 by lightning, 1S1 by
brush burning, 81 by incendiaries, SO
by sawmills and donkey engines, 1873
by miscellaneous and 75S by unknown
agencies. The area burned over was
in round figures 100000 acres, OF which
about $4,000 were private lands in ma
tional forests, as against some 100000
acres in 1908. Some ITO, 600, 900 board
SS, 000, 900 feet was privately owned,
as against 230.000,000 in the previous
year. The loss in value of timber de
stroyed was less than 100000 of
which close to $4,000 was privately
owned The loss of the year before
was about $450,0O0. Damage done to
reproduction and forage shows a re-
markable decrease, less than $3.50, 900
being the record for 1909 and over
500, 600 that for 1908.
The largest number of fires occurred
in Idaho, 991; but the great increase
over 1908 in that state, namely, 573,
Cour d'Alene, which were extinguished
without material damage. Locomotive
sparks were accountable for Gil of the
blazes in this forest last year. The ex-
PLANTATION of the increase in the total
for all forests is to be found in this
Cour d'AIene increase
The report Of the forester for 1909
said of the fire record of 1905: THAT
year was one of prolonged drought
during the summer and fall and of
forest fires throughout the
country. The national forests suffered
little About 1872
191 900 board feet of timber. or 0.06
per cent of the stand, was destroyed.
A total of 2.72S fires was re-
ported, of which 2,0S9 were small fires
confined as rule to an area of five
acres or less. The cost of fire fighting,
exclusive of the salaries of forest OFF,
GERS. was $73,2s3.33. This sum, added
TO the proportion of the total salaries
of rangers and guards properly charge
able to patrol and fire fighting, was
less than 1-20th of 1 per cent of the
value Of the timber protected, esti-
mated at an average stumpage value
of 81 per 1000

In proportion to population the
United States has twice as many doc
tors as England, four times as many
as France and five times as many as
Germany. The supply in this country
is much greater than the demand, one
reason being that it is much easier
to become physician here than in
any Of the other countries named. The
problem of how to secure enough Ia
Dor for the farm would be simpliffed
by keeping on the farm many of the
young men who go to medical school.

superficial and prejudiced and those
who are painfully seeking the joke
that the laugh comes in. It is of
