SNOW REALLY A BLESSING
Denver Newspaper Rejoices at the Re-
markable Fall of "the Beautiful"
Throughout the State.

1t. has been said before. Let it be
said again. The snow that you swept
from your walks, that sifted down
your collars, that got into your hair,
your eyes, your tempers, is worth a
million dollars to the agriculturists of
Colorado. To the dry farmer who
plows it into his soil it will bring re-
wards i'll a next years bank account.
Lying in the mountains it will flow
down the bitches to the irrigationists
next season. On ranch, in orchard
and truck garden it means moisture
and money. To the city it means
health that always comes from sea
sonable weather. Wade through. it
with smile on your lips, shovel it
with song in your heart, roll it into
balls and throw at your neighbor with
laugh and CHEEKY word. 1t spells
temporary inconvenience and future
prosperity-and white Christmas for
the public tree that brought all Den
ver-all Colorado-rinto that new, bet
ter, greater, get-together bond OF
friendship and work-Denver Times

SKIN CLEARED.
BY Simple Change in Food.

It has been said by q physician that
most diseases are the result of indi.
gestion.
There's undoubtedly much truth in
the statement, even to the cause OF
many unsightly eruptions, which many
suppose can be removed by applying
some remedy on the outside.
By changing her food a Kan. girl
was relieved of an eczema which was
a great annoyance to her. She writes:
For five months was suffering
with an eruption on my face and
hands which our doctor called eczema
and which caused me a great deal of
inconvenience. The suffering was al
most unbearable
"The medicine l took only gave me
temporary relief. One day happened
to read somewhere that eczema was
caused by indigestion. Then I read
that many persons had been relieved
of Indigestion by eating Grape-Nuts.
i decided to try it. liked the
taste OF the food and was particularly
pleased to notice that my digestion
was improving and that the eruption
was disappearing as if by magic. i
had at last found. in this great food,
something that reached my trouble.

MEANINGS CHANGED BY TINE
Study Of Word Building Through Gen.
turtles Brings Out Many Most
Interesting Points.

Word building is as much piece
of carpentry as is house building
Only it takes longer. Sometimes a
century or more. And by that time
the words first meaning is usually
changed.
For example, the old word for
"neighbor'' was "sib.' Ones good
neighbor was known as ones good
sib.p This became shortened to god
sib,'' and later to gossip" Then the
words whole meaning changed and
gossip no longer meant good neigh
Dor, but applied to the sort Of talk
exchanged between good neighboss.

old word for farmer was Door.

one was known as the "nighhor,' and
this phrase. in course of time, was
twisted to ''neighbor.'
You've heard the proverb: Little
pitchers have big ears Well, it
doesn't refer to the utensil that holds
water or goes to the corner side door.
Pitcher" was slang term with some
such meaning as our word chap or
fellow" Thus, Little fellows have
big ears is more sensible rendering
of the proverb.

You know what Mr. Rawn did when
he wished to change-he put away
what he had, and reached out for that
which he had not. For my own part,
I don't see how any woman could be
happy with him He ruined the life
OF one woman, his wife; of another,
his daughter. Now. you tell me he
hasn't made an absolutely happy life
for yet another woman-yourself. Oh
