BUSINESS WOMEN
A. Lunch Fit for a Kino.

An active and successful young
lady tells her food experience:
Some years ago I suffered from
nervous prostration, induced by con-
tinuous brain strain and improper
food, added to a great grief.
Il was 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, I
had no faith in it. However, I tried
1t, and soon there was a marked i'm
provement in my condition.
Il had been troubled with faint
spells, and had used a stimulant to
revive me. I found that by eating
Grape-Nuts at such times I was re-
lieved and suffered no bad effects,
which was a great gain. AS to my
other troubles-nervous p~rostration,
dyspepsia, etc.-on the Grape-Nuts diet
they soon disappeared.
II wish especially to call the atten-
ton of Office girls to the great benefit
l derived from the use o. Grape-Nuts
as a moo luncheon. l 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, orange,
or a bunch of grapes made a lunch fit
for a king, and one that agreed with
me perfectly.
Il throEe so on my Grape-Nuts diet
that I 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.

many of his experiments at home,

He burned incense, which made her

noises proceeding from the kitchen
that she arose, tip-toed to the door and
peeped in. What was her horror at
finding her husband dressed in red
to represent Satanic Majesty, burn
ing red fire and s~creeching like a
fiend. When he caught sight of the
frightened face of his wife he start

house, and each time he caught her

on another occasion, erected a throne
in the bedroom, and, dressed as the
devil. he seated himself upon it and
made her bow down and worship him.

She Wouldn't Say "Obey.

IT HE other day a divorce was
Il granted in Pittsburg that ended
a marriage of 80 years, during all of
which time the man and woman had
been separated on account of a stub
born whim of the bride. When Mary
Terrence and John Speer were mar
ried Mary corrected the minister and
declared that she was not willing to
include the word "obey'' in the mar
riage service. After the ceremony
the pair proceeded to their home, and
there the bridegroom began to reason
the matter out. Then Mrs. Speer
said she considered the word "obey"
foolish, as she had no intention of do
ing any such thing. The bridegroom
asserted his right to be considered the
head of the house, and in short a fine,
lively quarrel started on the question
of who should wear the trousers. FL
nally the newly made husband seized
his hat and said angrily that he would
never return to his home until his
wife signifed her willingness to sub
nit. AS time went on the resolution
of both hardened, and the marriage
halted where it began at the word
"obey" in the marriage service.
