Her Memory All Right.

Mrs. Geddes had a new maid, ant
she found it necessary to repeat her
instructions several times before Nora
obeyed them. The mistress had told
her repeatedly about the fnger-bowls.
and one day, when there were guests
they were again forgotten.
"Now, Nora" said Mrs. Geddes, ex'
tremely exercised over the omission,
this is the sixth time I've had to tell
you about the fnger-bowls. Didn't
the woman you last worked for have
them on the table?"

The Bridal Irousseau.

The old idea of providing brides
with a score or more of gowns, wraps
and hats has quite gone by. Even the
fashionable trousseau of today con
tains nc more than a dozen gowns, if
as many. Styles change SO fast that
by fall the gowns for the June we'd
ding, necessarily made some weeks be-
fore the ceremony, begin to look odd.
Some authority has declared that the
best dressed woman in Paris buys no
more than three new toilets each year,
but the opinion may be ventured that
she is altering her last years supply
most Of the time. The vast assert
ments of lingerie have also dwindled.
Nobody provides such a multitudinous
wedding outfit nowadays as used to be
required.-Leslie's.

SICK DOCTOR
Proper Food Put Him Right.

The food experience of a physician
from sickness and when needing nour-
ishment the worst way, is valuable:
IAN attack of grip, SO severe it came
near making an end of me, left my
stomach in such condition I could not
retain any ordinary food. knew Of
course that l must have food nourish-
ment or I could never ecover.
II began to take four teaspoonfuls
of Grape-Nuts and cream three times
a day and for 2 weeks this was almost
my only food. 1t tasted so delicious
that l enjoyed it immensely and my
stomach handled it perfectly from the
first mouthful. 1t was SO no%urishing
I was quickly built back to normal
health and strength.
"Grape-Nuts is Of great value as food
to sustain life during serious attacks
in which the stomach is so 6eranged
1t cannot digest and assimilate other
foods.
II am convinced that were Grape
Nuts more widely ur by physicians,
1t would save many lives that are 9th
erwise lost from lack of nourishment.'

AFTER HALF-CENTURY MARK
No Real Reason Why Man Of That
Age Should Not BE Capable of
Good Work.

Speaking Of the age of efficiency,
a Toledo gentleman locates it be-
yond the half-century mark. He calls
our attention to the fact that Column
bus was fifty-six when he discovered
America, that Darwin, Kant, Spencer,
Wagner, Haydn and others did their
greatest and best work when far past
the fifty mark, and that some have
persisted in great accomplishment un-
til seventy or more years Of age. This
argument won't help the man who is
aged and broken and tottering at fifty,
will it? But it will hearten the man
Of forty or more who has been care
full Of his resources, to think that
to him achievement still is a POSSIBLE
ity-and it may find him the opportu-
nifty to achieve by convincing some
master of opportunity that years do
not always spell senility or loss of
virility. The young man may reflect
that he has the opportunity to run a
long race-and he may catch sight of
the fact that the man Of fifty is not
necessarily back number" merely
because of his half-century.

STATE militia
needs 1000 MEN
LACKS THAT NUMBER OF FULL
QUOTA REQUIRED BY WAR
DEPARTMENT.
2,750 ENLISTED AT PRESENT
Adjutant-GeneraI vandercook Re-
ceives Orders of Department
Providing for Mastering
in Case of War.

Lansing, Mich.-If the Michigan
National guard should be called to
duty in the Mexican trouble zone, it
will be necessary to secure practical
ly 5000 recruits in order to come up
to the full quota as demanded by the
war department.
Adjutant- General Vandercook Sat
urday morning received the orders of
the war department providing for
mastering the state troops into the
federal service providing such a move
is decided upon. Under the regula-
tions of the war department the Mich
igan troops are to consist Of >6,632
men. At present, in round numbers,
the men under enlistment number
about 2,750. This is not making al
lowance for Withdrawals of men of
family in case the troops are called
out and it is figured that 1t will be
necessary to enlist between 5000 and
1000 men, all told.
In case the troops are called out,
those already enlisted will go for
ward and more than likely a detail
will stay at company stations to make
the required new enlistments and at
the same time prepare and equip the
men for field duty
The adjutant-general received also
all of the blanks necessary for
mastering the troops into the govern
ment service, and the stuff fills his
office. There is no indication in the
move, however, that any orders are
coming soon.
