A FOOD CONVERT
Good Food the True Road to Health.

The pernicious habit some persons
still have Of relying on nauseous drugs
to relieve stomach trouble keeps up
the patent medicine business and helps
keep up the army Of dyspeptics.
Observation-Disclosures - is caused
by what is put into the stomach in the
way Of improper food, the kind that
so taxes the strength Of tho digestive
organs they are actually crippled.
When this state is reached, to resort
to tonics is like whipping a tired
horse with a big load. Every addi-
tional effort he makes under the lash
diminishe5 his power to move the
load.
Try helping the stomach by leaving
of heavy, greasy, indigestible food
and take on Grape-Nuts-light, easily
digested, full Of strength for nerves
and brain, in every grain of It. There's
no waste Of time nor energy when
Grape-Nuts Is the food.
Il am an enthusiastic user Of Crane.
Nuts and consider it an ideal food"
writes a Maine man:
Il had nervous dyspepsia and was
all run down and my food seemed to
DO me but little good. From reading
an advertisement l tried Crape-Nuts
food, and, after a few weeks steady
use Of it, felt greatly improved.
Am much stronger, not nervous
now, and can do more work without
feeling SO tired, and am better every
way.
Il relish Grape-Nuts best with cream
and use four heaping teaspoonfuls an
the cereal part Of meal. | am sure
there are thousands OF persons with
stomach trouble who would be bene-
fitted by using Grape-Nuts." Name Civ.

"A great deal Of decorous formality
in eating makes for bad digestion. Eat
with fingers like a healthy savage and
you will digest your food like the saw
age-at any rate for time, until the
novelty has woPL OFF.
Probably afts@ the novelty wears
off the good effect will not be so mark
ed, but to return to dainty feeding
would then have Che same effect as
the other method had.
THE more like an animal you eat
the more like an animal will your
alimentary system behave itself and
the better it will be for your general
health.
IF a man takes his meat in his fin
gers he can pick it with more relish"

whose instincts are often very sound,
love to eat their food held in theiz

ELECTRIC LIGHT IN DENMARK
Every Town In That Country Of over
5000 Population Has
Public Service.

According 10 recent information
about the progress OF electric light
and power Industries IN Denmark, Il
appears that all the towns Of 5000
inhabitants and over are now provid-
ed with public electric service, says
the Scientific American. As 10 towns
having between 5000 and 5000 inhab-
ltants, there are only three IN which
electric mains are not installed. SO
that It will be seen that Denmark Is
one Of tho most progressive countries
In this respect The largest sized cleo
trio stations are 10 be found at Co
penhagen and at present there are
three large plants In operation giving
total OF $1,000 horse power Cur
rent Is supplied for the city mains.
as well as for the tramway lines. As
regards the Danish stations IN small
towns, I'm general each town has its
own plant, and there Is but one ex-
ample Of an interCommunal system.
This is at Skovshoved, near Copenha-
gen, and the central station extends
It's power lines over all the suburban
regions, also supplying the tramways
Of Hoilerup and Klampenburg. In
most Of the town electric stations the
Diesel heavy oil engine is used.
