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 .
modern newspaper.
To keep his mental faculties con-
etantly in good working order. the
editor must keep his physical powers
up to the highest rate Of efficiency.
Nothing will so quickly upset tho
whole system as badly selected food
and a disordered stomach. 1t there
fore follows that he should have
right food, which can be readily as
brain nourishment.

Of Grape-Nuts and Postum" writes

This is story Of successful man
from a rural district who attains to n
seat in the House of Representatives
and 1t tells how he gets on socially,
politically, and commercially. The man
is Representative Braisted. He is the
inventor of table relish, and is i'm
mensely proud to see that it is on the
bill of fare Of the hotel that he is stay
ing at when he brings his wife and
daughter to the National capital They
are all very proud of his success in
pushing this table relish, and are not
in the least ashamed to be speaking
of it openly as the great thing that has
made them prominent and successful
The mazes Of Washington society are
fairly traced herein, aud the way in
which the exclusive set are able TO keep
exclusive is fairly indicated. The sort
Of representative family which is de-
scribed here is never for one moment
considered as eligible to that class. The
story is diverting enough at times, and
at times it is rather pathetic to see
the way that the uninitiated are i'm
posed upon socially in a manner utter
iy brazen, but Of which they are all
unconscious The story is told most en-
tertaingly, and the author has again
reached a fine artistic success in the
telling.
