HOW MANY OF US
Fail to Select Food Nature Demands
to Ward Off Ailments?

A Ky. lady, speaking about food,
says: Il vas accustomed to eating
all kinds of ordinary food until, for
some reason, indigestion and nervous
p~rostration set in.
AFTER l had run down seriously
my attention was called to the neces-
s1ty of some change in my diet, and
l discontinued my ordinary breakfast
n began using Grape-Nuts with a
good quantity of rich cream.
In a few days my condition
changed in a remarkable way, and /
began to have a strength that I had
never been possessed Of before, a
vigor of body and a poise of mind that
amazed me. 1t was entirely new in
my experience.
MY former attacks Of Indigestion
had been accompanied by heat flashes,
and many times my condition was dis
tressing with blind spells of dizziness,
rush Of blood to the head and neural
gic pains in the chest.
"Since using Grape-Nuts alone for
breakfast l have been free from these
troubles, except at times when l have
INDUCED in rich, greasy foods in guam
tfty, then I would be warned by a
pain under the left shoulder blade, and
unless I needed the warning the old
trouble would come back, but when I
finally got to know where these trou-
bles originated / returned to my Grape
Nuts and cream and the pain and dis
furbance left very quickly.
I am now in prime health as a
result of my use Of Grape-Nuts." Name
given by Postum Co., Battle Greek,
Mich.
There's a reason" and 1t is ex-
planned in the little book, "The Road
to Wellville," in pkgs.

mono over the unfinished frock she
had contrived-the short coat, which
would be new and jaunty by and by,
hung raw and limp over the back
OF a chair at her side. All about was
the litter and disorder inevitable to
close contriving. Rose stood gazing
at her sister-both were too intent, to
note the opening door. Suddenly Al
1son's hand fell-she held the waist
coat away from her, saying in a
choked voice: "Rose-take it-back.

murder"
A hand fell upon Aunt Anne's
snoulder-a soft hand, heavy with
rings and only family wrinkled. It
drew her back, leaving the door a
little ajar. Very shortly the owner
OF 1t was saying. hushing Aunt
Anne's sobs the while:
TO think you wouldn't come to me.

OF you-you know your girls
feel almost as though they were mine.
But your pride has had its reward.
NOT many girls under the conditions

Dont tell her and Rose we overheard
not yet, at least. 1t would hurt
them to know we knew. But o are
going to be sensible, and let me ad-
you those delayed dividends.
Also, you are to remember, cabs are
a wicked extravaganza when one has
friends with cars, and next to nobody
to fill them"
At that Aunt Anne cried harder
ever, but after a little agreed
meekly to do as her friend babe. The
friend. Mrs. Norris Lane. a rich
widow, childless. with two adored and
adoring nephews. was unobtrusively,
the great lady Of Charlotte town.
Perhaps there was no direct Sc
quence of events-but people began
to notice early in the season that
Lane Norris and Howard Lane. the
great lady's nephews, were mighty
attentive to the Agnew girls. Rose
n Alison felt as If they had found
a fa1ry godmother-all at once.
Aunt Anne had ceased Worrying
she had only smiled mys~teriously.
and told them things were not so
as they had threatened to be.
Ihen at Christmas she surprised
each Of them with a dainty new
gown-to which Mrs. Lane had added
the other things-gloves. fan.
slippers, silk stockings, and cobweb
kerch1ef. Alison was not able to say
thank you, for the lump in her
throat. Even Rose had to turn awav
her eyes. And that night, hand in
hand, they told Aunt Anne of their
plottlng-and what had withheld
them from carrying it out. She

tears dropped upon Alison's bright

claimed.
Dare what?" Rose asked.
Alison answered with a breathless
giggle: Sacrifice our best heir

agree"
You mean the w~aistcoat!" Rose
cried, catching her breath.
Alison nodded. Rose darted awav
up the stairs, to the garnet where
the waistcoat which had come down
from a beau Of colonial times, lay,
i~nen-wrapped, in lavender. In a wink
she was back with it, unwrapping
the swathings. They fell apart, re-
vea1ing a fabric of degree. Brocade
whose satin ground, once a royal
scarlet powdered with rosebuds vel
low, white and pink, had faded to a
soft delicate Indian red. Time had
likewise improved the rose hues-
they seemed to melt one into another.

was neither frayed nor spotted and

HOUSTON MARKET REVIEW

Houston, Texas, April 2.--varied re-
ports concerning the new crops are
coming in from over South Texas. In
many portions Of the territory the
crop is peeping through the ground
while in others the growth Is back
ward, while some stations report re-
planting is in progress.
According to r. G. Dun & Co.'S
Houston office, Texas farmers this
year have ignored the New Orleans
governors conference resolutions and
have planted about the same acreage
in cotton. Reports to that office show
no appreciable decrease in the acre
age. Two reasons are given for this
situation: first, that Texas Is a nat
ural cotton growing state; and, sec
ond, that the rich season in the
ground this year has tempted many
farmers to plant staple from which
prospects are so very good with the
excellent season in the ground
General business over South Texas
is fair, but future prospects depend
much on whether the weather will con-
( inue good to permit the balance OF
crop planting. Wholesale trade is
good, the season considered, while gro
ceries are moving in large volume.
Steady building over the gulf coast
keeps steady the demand for builders
hardware. Collections are reported
better.
The Houston produce market is re
ceiving better supply Of sweet pc
tatoes, which this review called fol
last week. Prices remain firm, how
ever, for the demand is equal to the
