Some Instructor was it merely a de-

to Marcia Lawrence-that 1t was she
who had left it here-that the tears
which dampened it were her tears,
tears of bitter, bitter sorrow for dead
hopes and a future which had changed
from gold to gray. She had stolen into
the library for a moments peace, that
she might face her sorrow and decide
what she must do. She had left it

FALSE HUNGER
A Symptom of Stomach Trouble Cor
rected by Good Food.

There is, with some forms of stom.
ach trouble, an abnormal craving for
food which is frequently mistaken for
a good appetite" A lady teacher
writes from Carthage, Mo-, to ex.
plain how with good food she dealt
with this sort of hurtful hunger.
Il have taught school for fifteen
years, and up to nine years ago had
good, average health. Nine years ago,
however, my health began to fail,
and continued to grow worse steadily,
in spite Of doctors prescriptions, and
everything l could do. During all this
time my appetite continued good, only
the more I ate the more l wanted I'd
eat-I was always hungry.
The first symptoms Of my break
down were a distressing nervousness
and a loss of flesh. The nervousness
grew SO bad that finally it amounted to
actual prostration. Then came stom
ach troubles, which were very painful;
constipation which brought on piles,
dyspepsia n severe nervous head,
aches.
The doctors seemed powerless to
help me, said l was overworked, and
at last urged me to give up teach
ing, if I wished to save my life.
But this I could not do. I kept on
at it as well as I could, each day grow.
ing more wretched, my willpower
alone keeping me up, till at last a
good angel suggested that l try a diet
Of Grape-Nuts food, and from that
day to this I have found 1t delicious
always appetizing and satisfying.
Il owe my restoration to health to
Grape-Nuts. My weight has returned
and for more than two years I have
been free from the nervousness, COP.

ailments that used to punish me SO
