Retort Practical,

A too convivially inclined young
clubman was introduced at a recep-
ton last week to clever society
woman whom he understood, in some
hazy fashion, to be great artist. She
was not an artist, nor had she ever
made any attempt to be. But the
young man, whose wits were apt to go
wool gathering at times, thought she
was. And he was very anxious to
make a sufficiently pretty speech to
her
He murmured the usual convention
alities when he was presented, and
you paint, don't you? So many peo-
pie have told me about It," he said
overwhelmingly.
The young woman stared at him,
looked him severely in the eyes, let
her glance fall on every feature of
his perplexed face, glared her ind1g-
nation. and then she spoke:

WAR VETERANS ,

REUNION OF @. A, r. AN
LIED SOCIETIES FOE
ANNUAL SESSION.
ORDERS HAVE BIG GROWTH
While Ranks of Old Soldiers Show
That They are Growing Thnne
Related Organizations Increase IN
Numbers.

Green Bay.-The annual convCca-
ton of the state G.. A. r. met in this
city.
Up to within five years ago the
department encampment, the legis-
lative body of the Grand Army, was
regarded as the important annual
business event, but now. and prob
ably during the balance of the or
der's existence, 1t will be more of a
state reunion of the veterans than
otherwise.
The business sessions are noted
for their harmony and oneness Of
purpose. The ties of comradeship
have become so strong and the de-
sire to make it pleasant one for tie
other, and to possess the good will
of the public, renders it next to inn
possible to introduce and carry on
heated discussions, no matter what
comes up.
The public should not be surprised
| that these modern enCampmentS are
more largely attended than encamp-
ments were a quarter Of a century
ago. Not as many of the soldiers
attend as in the long past, but the
kindred societies, the WOman's Re-
lief corps, the Grand Army's auxil-
larry, the Sons of Veterans, Daugh-
ters of Veterans, Ladies Of the Grand
Army and Daughters of the Grand
Army, the latter a recently per-
feCted organization, are more and
more in evidence as the years come
and go.
The Womans Relief corps has a
larger membership in Wisconsin
than the Grand Army, and is stead
lily and rapidly growing. For more
than a quarter of a century it has
been the strong right arm of the
soldier organizations.
The other woman's society, known
as the Ladies of the g. A. R., COM
posed only of the relatives of SOL
diers, hold their convention lat the
same time.
The coming of all of these So
cieties 20 a city the size of Green
Bay 5,000-means more or less
crowding, but this old city, noted
200 years for it's hospitality, was
prepared to make the stay of two
days memorable in soldier annals
and to send the thousands back to
their homes singing the praises of
the city and our people.

BUSINESS WOMEN
- Lunch Fit for a kinq.

An active and successful young
lady tells her food experience:
Some years ago / suffered from

proTement in my condition.

spells, and had used a stimulant to
revive me. 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
dyspepsia, etc.-on the Grape-Nuts diet
they soon disappeared.
Il wish especially to call the atten-
ton of office girls to the great benefit
/ derived from the use of Grape-Nuts
as a noon 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 nickePs
worth of sweet cream to add to it.
