oh. Learned Judue,

A California judge decided that
there is no judicial authority to keep
a man from making love to his wife.
although it could stop his beating her.
The remarkable cause of this remark
able decision was that woman in
Los Angeles had applied for an injunc-
ton to restrain her husband frclr in
sisting on being attentive to her. This
Judge was not a Solomon, but he real
lied that only Solomon could be
trusted to rule upon the whims and
Inconsistencies of womankind.

FROM THE EDITOR.
He Forgot That He Had a Stomach


Talking of food, there is probably
no professional man subjected to q
greater, more wearing mental strain
than the responsible editor Of a
modern newspaper.
TO keep his mental faculties con-
stantly in good working order, the
editor must keep his physical powers
up to the highest rate of efficiency.
Nothing will so quickly upset the
whole system as badly selected food
and disordered stomach. 1t there
fore follows that he should have
right food, which can be readily as
simulated, and which furnishes true
brain nourishment.
'AIy personal experience in the use
of Grape-Nuts and Postum" writes
a Philadelphia editor, $50 exactly
agrees with your advertised claim as
to their merits that any further ex-
position in that direction would seem
to be superf1uous They have bene-
flied me so much, however, during
the five years that have used them
that 1 do not feel justified in with
holding my testimony.
General high living with all
that the expression implies as to a
generous table, brought about indi-
gestion, in my case, with restless
ness at night and lassitude in the
morning, accompanied by various
pains and distressing sensations
during working hours.
''The doctor diagnosed the condi-'
ton as 'catarrh of the stomach and
prescribed various medicines, which
did me no good. I finally threw
physics to the dogs gave up tea
and coffee and heavy meat dishes,
and adopted Grape-Nuts and Postum
as the chief articles Of my diet.
"I can conscientiously say, and
wish to say it with all the emphasis
possible to the English language,
that they have benefited me as med
icines never did, and more than any
other food that ever came, on my
table.
"My experience is that the Grape
Nuts food has steadied and strength
ened both brain and nerves to most
positive degree. How it does it I
cannot say, but J know that after
breakfasting on Grape-Nuts food one
actually forgets he has a stomach,
let alone stomach trouble 1t is, in
my opinion, the most beneficial as
well as the most economical food on
the market, and has absolutely no
rival" Name given by Postum Co.,
