A REB ELLIOT
Food Demanded.

The human body will stand a lot OF
abuse, but sometime 1t will surely re.
bel and demand proper food in place
of the pasty, starchy, greasy stuffs on
which it has been made sick.
Then is the time to try Grape-Nuts,
the most scientific and perfect food in
the world.
A lady of Washington says: Three
years ago | was very Ill with catarrh
Of the stomach and was given up to
die by one doctor. ! laid in bed four
months and my stomach was so weak
that | could not keep down medicine
or hardly any kind Of food and was so
weak and emaciated after four months
Of this starvation that my daughter
could easily lift me from bed and put
me in my chair.
But weak as my stomach was, II
accepted, relished and digested Grape
Nuts without any difficulty the Hrst
time that wonderful food was tried.
Il am 10Y strong and in better
health than for a great many years
and am gradually growing still
stronger. l rely on Grape-Nuts for
much Of the nourlshment that | get.
The results have certainly been won
derful In my case and prove that no
stomach is SO weak 1t will not digest
Grape-Nuts.
MY baby got fat from feeding on
Grape-Nuts. / was afraid | would
have to stop giving the food to him,

LAUGH At 'RATTLER'
Poisonous FangS Seem Not to
Affect the Pig.
Some Of the Animals Seem Really to
Take Joy In Pursuing and Killing
the Dreaded Snake-ls Hen
Also lmmune2

There is no telling how long any
thing will live after being bitten by a
rattlesnake," said Jack Mcconnell,
who makes a business Of capturing
dealing in and exhibiting rattlers. and
who had a narrow escape ono from
dying from a rattlesnake's bite him
self.
AS In my case, anything bitten by
a rattlesnake may not die at all. but
have known a rat TO die within six
minutes after being struck in the neck
by a rattler's fangs. Then again
/ have known a rat to live "a hours
after being struck. Leaving out pigs,
| never knew an animal or bird to re-
cover after being bitten. except a ban
tam hen.
THE hen was exposed to a very
vicious rattler In a box, and he struck
her instantly. The pain seemed to en-
rage the p~ugnacious little hen, and
she pitched into that snake so lively
that he didn't have a sign OF a show
with her, and soon retreated to one
corner OF his box.
"The excited fowl, and she wasn't
much bigger than a pigeon, didn't let
up on the rattler a bit, and she GER
tainly would have killed him, but he
was a valuable specimen. and | took
the hen out Of the box, but much
against her will She scratched
around the yard for an hour or more
as II nothing out of the common had
happened to her, although she must
have had a dose of r~attlesnake poison
in her big enough to knock out a
mule, when suddenly she gave a queer
sort of a squawk and keeled over.
1--WE supposed, of course. that she
was done for and wondered how In
the world she had ever lasted so long.
But she wasn't done for. She lay
three days in a stupor, and then be-
gan to improve. In a couple Of days
more she was scratching and singing
around as lively and clipper as ever,
and doubtless all ready for another
bout with the RATHER.
pigs don't seem to mind the bite
of rattlesnakes any more than you
might mind a mosquito bite. | think
they rather enjoy getting In among
rattlers. A backwoods farmer had a
SOW once, up in the Pennsylvania rat
tlesnake belt, that was a terror after
rattlesnakes. II seemed as If she
could find the trail of a RATHER as
surely as a hound could pick up a
deer's track. And she would follow
that trail until She overhauled the
snake that left It. unless he succeeded
in getting safe among the rocks, and
that would be the last of him.
THAT sn%ake-hunting pig didn't seem
to care for any other kind Of snakes,
II she could have been taught to re.
trleve she'd have been worth a good
deal to any rattlesnake hunter. But
she wasn't on the retrieve. She was
hunting for her own accommodation.
and ate every snake she caught, all
but the heads. That was In my
snake.hunting bailiwlck, and l used
to find so many rattlesnake heads
around on her stamping ground that
! was mighty glad when | heard that
a hunter, thinking she was a wild
animal, shot her dead one day, for
she was working disastrously against
my interests"
