TROUBLE IN DINING ROOM
Little Mixup Between Ladies Accepted
Philosophically by the TorPdville
Landlord.

AT one time yesterday it looked
like we was going to have a little
trouble here in the dining room, but 1t
didn't come to nothin' much" related
the landlord of the Torpidville tavern.
Maxine and Sylphie, the young Ia
dies that are waitin table, got to squab-
blia' about pint of etiquette, or the
merits Of their respective fellers, or
something that-a-way, as ladies Is
everlastin'ly doin' and Sylphie, reck-
on it was, told Maxine, or mebby Max
Inc told Sylphie-anyhow, one told the
other that she wasn't no better than
she ort to be. And Maxine, or
Sylphie, whichever it was, got sorter
fussy about it, and answered that she
was too, and she didn't care who knew
IT, And then they kind O. tied in on
each other and went round and round
as it were, and it took 'em quite a
while after it was over to wash the
ketchup and broken glass out of their
Golfers. as they call their hair. But
that's all it amounted to, and there's
no use in firm 'em, for ladies will be
ladies and there ain't no help for it."

"A composer must hearken to the

NEVER TIRES
OF the Food That Restored Her to
Health.

Something was making me i'll and
Colo. young lady: For two years I
was thin and sickly, suffering from in
digestion and intlammatory rheuma-
tism.
Il had tried different kinds Of diet,
and many of the remedies recommend
ed, but got no better.
Finally, Mother suggested that
try Grapefruit and | began at once,
eating it with n little cream or milk.
A change for the better began at once.
To-day l am well and am gaining
weight and strength all the time. I've
gained 10 lbs. in the last five weeks
and do not suffer any more from in
digestion, and the rheumatism is all
gone
Il know 1t Is to Grape-Nuts alone
that | owe my restored health. | still
eat the food twice a day and never
tire OF It." Name given by Postum
Co, Battle Creek, Mich
The favour of Grape-Nuts Is peculiar
to itself. 1t is neutral, not too sweet
ana mas an agreeable, healthful quality
that never grows tiresome.
One Of the sources of rheumatism Is
from overlooking the system with
acid material, the result of imperfect
digestion and assimilation.
AS soon as improper food is aban-
doned and Grape-Nuts is taken regu-
larly, digestion is made strong, the
organs do their work OF building up
good red blood cells and OF carrying
away the excess of disease-making
material from the system.
The result Ia certain and steady

activity. There's reason" Read

thought and word of this boy marked

When she came on the last day

looked at her little, bent figure and
suddenly looked at each other and
then broke the prison rules. They
pushed back the screen. opened the
door of his cell brought a chair for
his mother and chair for him and
jeopardized their Jobs completely by
looking hard away in the last minute
of the parting. But they could not
help hearing him tensely swearing to

perhaps, the best thing he ever did in
his wrecked life. 1t was jockeying
with his soul. but it was unqucsuon-
ably brave.
Tragedy Of Fcrraro's Mother.
Nobody remembers now the crime
of Ferraro that put him in the death
house. 1t was very brutal and stupid,
a murder in the dregs. The man
had the frame of an OK and the mind
of Il bad child. But the vigil that his
homely, lowly mother kept outside the
prison walls isn't forgotten, nor how
she came to the village OF Ossining
and sold newspapers, chewing gum
and shoelaces so that she might pay
for bed and food there in the last
week of his life, Twice she was per
mt tod tn u In,
three feet away from his cell door
barred her from more than touching
the tips Of his shaking fingers each
timo they met. She said nothing to
him directly She simply looked at
him with straining eyes while she
kissed the cross of her rosary. But
on the last night of his life she didn't
sleep. From the fall of darkness she
haunted the road directly outside the
prison walls. Somehow she had
heard of the significance of the dim
ming of the lights at dawn. When
she saw il she fell on her knees in the
dust of the road.
The vigils of all the women who
have come near the death-house have
not, however, ended in a stare into
black despair There was Eddie
Wises mother, who was herself ad
mitted to stammer to him wildly that
his sentence had been commuted by
the governor. And there was fine old
Mrs. Molneux who for more than two
years lived in sight OF the prison
where her son Roland was Gagged.
jealousy guarding every little extra
privilege that could be begged of the
warden in the matter of the frequency
OF her visits and the length Of time
they might endure. She even wheed-
led the warden into permitting ice
cream that his own keepers should
purchase to be given her son, with
share for all the other men around
him. To this day Molineux. since
retired and acquitted has not forgot
ten how delicious that ice cream
tasted in the hot. fetid air of the death
house. Even now every little while
he sends to the warden n check with
request that the men confined
where he was once be allowed this
