WHY CELEBRITIES ARE FEW
Their Absence Permits the Imitation
swells to Shake Hands In
Sane Manner.

Even If I didn't read the newspa-
pers would know that there are not
many strange celebrities in town
now" said the young man with strong
social instincts.
Il could tell by the way the imita-
ton swells shake hands. Everybody
shakes hands now in safe and sane
manner Not for weeks have my fin
gers been tweaked in freakish fashion.
That is because the shakers have met
no one to set bad example.
"Peculiarities In handshake are
more contagious than fads in accent or
clothes. Nearly every person of i'm.
portance has his own way of grasping
another's hand, and the small fry who
ape their big brothers in everything
else mighty soon copy that shake. In
the busy social season when the big
guns come and go pretty frequently
the person Of initiative habits will
shake hands in dozen different ways
In as many weeks"

With a Stitch in Time.

To know of and use a food that will
feed and restore brain and nerves be-
fore slight nervous troubles end in
complete nervous prostration or BRAIN
fag is wise, for unless proper food is
supplied daily it is unreasonable to
expect the nervous system to answer
the demands made upon 1t.
There is food, Grape-Nuts, for the
particular purpose of restoring weak

and strength.
A business man, Of Baltimore, who
made the trial says
Two years ago my health had be-
come so seriously impaired it was i'm
possible for me to attend to business.
At the least exertion my nerves would
give way and the condition Of my sys-
tenn allowed me little or no rest or
sleep at night. Stomach trouble soon
followed and could take no solid
food. l tried the best tonics and med
icines but they all failed.
Finally Grape-Nuts food was rec
commended and after using 1t for 10
days | began to feel it's good results

Graft Of Three Elements.

The Curtiss hydro-aeroplane used
by Robinson is hybrid craft that
travels on land or water or in the
air. 1t runs along the ground at a
speed of 35 miles an hours, skins over
the surface of the water as fast as
the swiftest motor boat and flies
through the air at a speed of mile
minute.
Robinson, after his start from a
lake at Minneapolis, probably will
make most of his stops on the surface
of the water However he will alignt
on land at night and at points where
he intends making stops Of any
length.
The exhibition at St Louis on Oct.
q and will have no connection with
the fight down the Mississippi valley.
Robinson will use the same type of
machine, however, and will give ex-
hibitions on the river front. He will
send his craft from here to Minneap-
oils and then overhaul it carefully for
the long trip down the river.

Has Been Flying a Year.

Robinson has rapidly forged to the
front as an aviator in the last year.
He first broke into the flying game
when he exhibited incompetence OF
his own construction at the Centen-
NAL Week areo meet in ST. Louis.
Prior to his entry into the field of
aviation he had been motorcycle
racer and was the first man to loop
the loop on bicycle. Robinson had
no great amount of success flying his
own machine, and when the craft was
demolished by storm, he took a
position with the Curtiss team, where
he quickly gained name for daring
and skillful flying.
When Curtiss perfected the hydro
aeroplane, he chose Robinson to
demonstrate it, and the machine was
the sensation of the Chicago aero
plane meet recently.
A race between the fastest motor
boat on the Mississippi river and
Robinson's hybrid machine will be a
feature of his flight down the Mis-
sissippi.
