WRONG BREAKFAST.
Change Gave Rugged Health.

Many persons think that for
strength, they must begin the day
with breakfast of meat and other
heavy foods. This is a mistake as
anyone can easily discover for him
self.

I used to be very heavy break

afraid to eat anything.
My wife suggested a trial of Grape
Nuts and as / had to eat something
or starve / concluded to take her
advice. She fixed me up a dish and

ity was all right, but the quantity was
too small wanted a saucerful.
But she said a small amount Of

So started in with Grape-Nuts and
cream, two soft boiled eggs and some
crisp toast for breakfast.

concluded had struck the right thing
and stuck to it. I had not only been
eating improper food, but too much.
Il was working at the carpenters
trade at that time and thought that
unless I had a hearty breakfast with
plenty Of meat, would play out be-
fore dinner. But after few days Of
my new breakfast l found I could
do more work, felt better in every

The Connoisseur.

Every Riviera visitor knew Sebas-
tan B. Schlesinger, the rich Ameri-
can composer and connoisseur. Mr..
SchlesingeT, at the end of the Riviera
season, gave dinner at his beautiful
fat on the Promenade des Anglais
in, Nice, and showed his superb col
lections, and at the same time gave
a whimsical definition of a connois-
seur. "A connoisseur, he said, while
pointing out the beautieS Of his old

Took Pleasure in Guiding Her New
Acquaintance to the Most Pic
turesque Spots.

1T, and the simple but pretty missive
she sent in reply seemed to bring back
to his longing soul solacing memory
of rambles in the sweet scented woods
the fitting of a face that was inn
pressed upon his heart of hearts like
talisman.
Then weeks of gloom, for esbia re
ceived no reply Neither did Clement
Rowe return as he had promised
Poor little spirit! She grieved to
think she was so soon forgotten Then
wonderful happening took up her at
tention. An aunt had died leaving her
twenty-five thousand dollars.
1t was all in money, Ira Dunn told
her, and he developed a sudden new
interest in his charge. He had an
ticipated the bequest for year back,
but he had never told Les 0ia of that.
Now Ira Dunn conceived a great
idea of keeping that money in the
family He had favorite nephew in
a. neighboring town. Behold, within a
at the Dunn homestead, the chosen
sutton for the hand of the pretty little
heiress!
Lesbia treated the awkward, carroty-
haired youth with kindness, as her
gentle nature impelled her. 1t hurt
her, however, when boating or driving
her surroundings would suggest those
rich, joyful days when Clement Rowe
had been by her side. The contrast
of companionship was so intense that
she would turn aside to hide the tears
of regret-of pride, too, for Lesbia felt
that Clement had unwarrantably
sighted her.
One day Abner Bowen blunderingly
proposed to Lesbia. So palpably had
the speech he made been put into his
mouth by NIra Dunn that Lesbia
laughed outright at him. In a later
spirited interview with Mr.. Dunn she
fatty rejected his candidate and the
schemer set about forming new plots
Then gradually there came to Les
bias mind an intense desire to make
of art her life endeavor She made of
her room q regular studio There was
some joy in getting into a groove of
work that was harmonious, but she
missed the expert hand that had taught
her the rudiments of profession she
was resolute to adopt as a life mis-
sion
And then one day came a remark
able discovery, that abruptly changed
all the impulses of her young life and
hurried the accomplishment of her
souls ambitions.
She was looking for an old scrap
book in the library when she came
across what appeared to be the pen
ciled draft of letter written by Mr..
Dunn. She could not take her eyes
from the sheet, as she saw that it con-
cerned Clement Rowe.
1t had apparently been written right
after Lesbia had answered the first
and only missive she had received
from the artist. 1t told Lesbia that
Clement had written manly letter to
