BUSINESS WOMEN
u Lunch Fit for a King.

An active and successful young
lady tells her food experience:
Some years ago / suffered from
nervous prostration. induced by con-
tinuous brain strain and improper
food, added to a great grief.
II vas ordered to give up my work,
as there was great danger Of my mind
failing me altogether. My stomach
was in bad condition nervous dyspep-
STA. l think now and when Grape
Nuts food was recommended to me, l
hae no faith in it. However, l tried
1t, and soon there was a marked i'm
provement in my condition.
II had been troubled with faint
spells, and had used a stimulant to
revive me. I found that by eating
Grape-Nuts at such times / was re-
lieved and suffered no bad effects.
which was a great gain. AS to my
other troubles-nervous prostration,
dyspepsia, etc.-on the Grspe-Nuts diet
they loon disappeared.
II wish especially to call the atten.
ton OF office girls to the great benefit
! derived from the use of C,rape-Nuts
ms a noon luncheon. I was thoroughly
tired Of cheap restaurants and ordin.
airy lunches, and so made the expert.
ment OF taking a package of Grape
Nuts food with me, and then slipping
out at noon and getting a nickel's
worth of sweet cream to add to it.
Il found that this simple dish. fin.
ished off with an apple, peach, range
or a bunch Of grapes made a lunch At
for a king, and II that agreed with
me perfectly.
Il throve so on my Grape-Nuts diet
that l did not have to give up my work
at all. and in the two years have had
only four lost days charged up against
me.

do dislike a man who persists in talk

do want to be talking of ourselves. That
we should wish to is a part of human
nature. But since we are in the habit
of controlling that desire and listening
to others some of the time we think we
have a right to expect a like self re-
straint and forbearance from others

from whom we do not receive it.

A merry war is waged between large
and small hats, and apparently. the
latter will be the victor. for the great
majority have small brims, and it is
by the brim that a hat is judged, large
or small. In height, at least, they are
enormous-veritable towers, some lean
ing one way and some another, while
others are upright. Then there are
pozes which are entirely different in
every particular. They are quite flat
and jut out to a distance in the back
These are not heavily trimmed, but all
other hats are loaded with ornament.
There is not such variety of trim
ming as was used formerly, but what is
used. is used without stint. Everything
IS large-wings, bows, feathers, orna-
ments, irrespective of the size of the
hats on which it appears. Any con-
trivance to accentuate height is re-
sorted to. Naturally the more con-
sentative are going to want modifica-
tons of this mode, but then, why

ADJUSTABLE TUNlC IS HANDY
Affords Opportunity for Change and
Keeps Fresh If Laid Away In
Tissue Paper.

Adjustable tunics of very shadowy
and filmy white lace are part OF the
winter wardrobe OF nearly every
woman who can afford them Compile
mentary TO them is a collection OF
princess or Empire slips, in various
colors of satin or crepe. The tunics
are unlined below the waistline. and
the upper part has lining OF white H.
fusion net, which, while very strong,
is almost invisible even at close range.
With these two sets of tunics and
foundations very elaborate gowns can
be evolved, all that is needed to COM
plete each costume being girdle and
the ubiquitous cluster Of artificial now
ers to match the underpart.
This separation of tunic and founda-
,ion, besides affording opportunity for
variety, has other advantages as well.
The tunic can be cleaned and pressed
when necessary. and can be laid away
properly on a shelf, with folds of tbs.
sue paper between. after each wear

soon become stringy and lose all the
effectiveness of their pattern when
hung up. When laid away with tissue
paper they keep fresh much longer, q
