and had no feeling of hunger. Nor

bread would have made me sick.
Then and there / saw that Mrs.
Sharpless had done wonderful

used no other white bread in my
home.
OF course, from a scientific
standpoint, there is no way
around the value of her discovery.
And when a fact comes home to

bread has come home to ME, all
doubt is dispelled. For the first
time in years 1 have eaten white
bread with impunity, and 1t has
not troubled me in the least.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Feb. A.
Mrs. Nina Dewey of Des Moines
declares that it is because she is
trying to be a GOOD Wife and
GOOD MOTHER that she is in a
position also to be a GOOD LOB
BYIST for suffrage.
You know what woman
lobbyist is? A gayly dressed, vi
vacious, constituencies creature
who lures silly, foolish represen-
tatives and senators to their de-
struction? That's the type that
appears in the novels and on the
stage.
Well, Mrs. Dewey isn't any
thing at all like that. She's VI
vacious enough, and she wears
good clothes, well made, that fit
her nicely. But she's a REGU-
LAR WOMAN. And she has been
duly elected a LOBBYIST be-
cause her fellow workers for
woman's suffrage in Iowa know
