Food Did 1t

After using laxative and cathartic
medicines from childhood a case of
chronic constipation yielded to the
scientific food, Grape-Nuts, in few
days.
From early childhood l suffered
with such terrible constipation that I
had to use laxatives continuously go
ing from one drug store to another
and suffering more or less all the
time
"A prominent physician whom l
consulted told me the muscles of the
digestive organs were weakened and
could not perform their work without
help of some kind, so / have tried at
different times about every laxative
and cathartic known, but found no
help that was at all permanent l
had finally become discouraged and
had given my case up as hopeless
when l began to use the pre-digested
food, Grape-Nuts.
Although I had not expected this
food to help my trouble, TO my great
surprise Grape-Nuts digested easily
from the first and in a few days |
was convinced that this was just what
my system needed.
"The bowels performed their func-
tions regularly and am now com
pletely and permanently cured of this
awful trobule.

ELECTRICITY IN
REACH OF ALL
Purses
LIGHT AND POWER COMPANY AN
NoUNcES REDUCTION IN
CONSUMERS RATES

AS the result of radical change
in the price schedules of the Las We
gas Light and Power company, an
Inounced this morning by Manager w.
P. Southard, Las Vegans are enabled
to utilize electricity layishly and not
be bothered by the thought of a big
bin on the first of the month. Mr.
Southard told a representative of The
Optic that he had been authorized bv
the Federal Light and Power com
pany of New York, owner of the Las
Vegas corporation. to announce the
following rates, which went into eff
feet on October /
For first 80 hours uhe per month,
10 cents per kilowaGt hour
For second 30 hours use, per month,
10 cents per kilowatt hour.
For all over go hours use, per month
5 cents per kilowatt hour.
In making computations, the com
pany uses as a basis 60 per cent Of
the connected load. To the uninitiat-
ed it may be explained that the con-
nected load is the total wattage of the
lamps. motors and other connections
belonging to each customer. Thus, il
ono had II connections, each of 25
watts, his connected load would be
425 watts.
BUSINESS houses and private resi-
dences will be placed upon the same
basis. and each customer will pay
minimum of 81 per month. A charge
of 81 will be made for connecting all
services except the initial installation.
All persons not paying their bills be-
fore the eleventh day of each month
will be charged penalty of five per
cent.
The average consumer of electricity
will effect a saving of about 20 per
cent as the result of the new rate,
while the heavy user Of electricity
will find his current costing him con-
siderably less than under the present
schedule. Some of the heavier con-
sumers will save about 40 per cent
It is the belief of the Federal COM
pany that the new rate will cause
larger use of electricity in Las Vegas
customers finding it to advantage to
use more current when it can be OBJ
tained at so reasonable figure. Man
age1 Southard says he expects the
use of electric heating and cooking ap-
paratus to increase materially, while
manufacturing plants and other In
dustries will use electricity exclusively
instead of steam or gasoline engines.
incidentally the use of electric auto
mobiles will become more general
! here.
