WRONG BREAKFAST
Change Gave Rugged Health

Many persons think that for
strength, they must begin the day with
a breakfast of meat and other heavy
FOODS This is mistake as anyone can
easily discover for himself.
A W. Va carpenters experience may
benefit others. He writes:
I used to be a very heavy breakfast
eater but finally indigestion caused me
such distress, I became afraid TO eat
anything.
MY wife suggested a trial Of Grape
Nuts and as I had to eat something or
starve. concluded to take her advice.
She fixed me up a dish and remarked
at the time that the quality was all
right, but the quantity was too small
I wanted a saucerful.
But she said a small amount OF
Grape-Nuts went a long way and that
I must eat it according to directions
So I started in with Grape-Nuts and
cream, 3 soft boiled eggs and some
crisp toast for breakfast.
I cut out meats and a lot OF other
stuff I had been used TO eating all my
life and was gratified to see that I
was getting better right along con-
cluded I had struck the right thing
and stuck to it. 1 had not only been
eating improper food, but TOO mueh.
Il wa working at the carpenters
trade at that time and thought that IN
less I had a hearty breakfast with
plenty of meat, I would play out be-
fore dinner. But after frw days Of
my new breakfast / found / could
DO more work. felt better IN every way,
and now I am not bothered with in
digestion"

Ferguson is talking about the Houston
club he winks his other eye at the cluD

other eve at the landlord and tells him
not TO worry. either, that this is Just to
get votes, and the landlord won't be

FerEusOn's Practices.
Continuing this theme. Col. Ball de-
clared that Ferguson had not practiced
what he is now preaching; that on MS
own farm, IN Bell county he mad used
day labor, and that his land plank was
a ''bait Of moOnshine-" He declared
that the Ferguson third and fourth
law. if enacted, could be violated in
innumerable ways; that the landlord
could require the tenant for Instance,
to buy a pair Of broken down mules az
a good price before the landlord would
rent him the land on third and fourth
basis: that ii could be evaded by hiring
day labor, "as Ferguson did in Bell
county" and in many other ways.

The strange spectacle is now seen OF
Hubbell. who fought hard prior to
statehood to keep direct primaries out
Of the constitution, insisting upon Ine
party differences being settled at the
primaries this year. On the other
hand are Kibbey and others VINO

insisting that the ticket shall be Sc
