The Tango in Church.

Mother, like countless other moth
ers, had been doing much tangoing
and hesitating of late. She had taken
dancing lessons. She practiced the
various steps at home with father. Lit
tie Frances had heard much of the
lingo that goes with the tango, and the
hesitation. She knew all of the
phrases.
A few days ago Frances went to
church with her mother. Frances had
not learned all of the ceremonials of
this church for, after the mother knelt
outside the pew, Frances looked up at
her and whispered:
Mother, what did you do the dip
for?"-Indianapolis News.

PRIZE FOOD.
PalatabIe, Economical, NourishIng.

A Nebr. woman has outlined the
prize food in few words, and that
from personal experience. She
writes:
AFTER our long experience with
Grape-Nuts, cannot say enough in
its favor. We have used this food al
most continually for seven years.
1--WE sometimes tried other adver-
tised breakfast foods but we invariably
returned to Grape-Nuts as the most
palatable. economical and nourishing
Of all.
when I quit tea and coffee and
began to use Postum and Grape-Nuts,
was almost nervous wreck. / was
80 irritable I could not sleep nights,
had no interest in life.
After using Grape-Nuts a short
time began to improve and all these
ailments have disappeared and now l
am well woman. My two children
have been almost raised on Grape
Nuts, which they eat three times a
day.
They are pictures of health and
have never had the least symptom OF
stomach trouble. even through the
most severe siege of whooping cough
they could retain Grape-Nuts when all
else failed.
"Grape-Nuts food has saved doctor
bills, and has been, therefore, most
economical food for u.s."

There is a peculiar sense OF relief
in feeling a solid deck beneath ones

LIfeboat With Human Motor.

A lifeboat driven by propeller
which is worked by the crew, the in
vention of Mr.. Winner, was tried lately
in England. Four handles are pro
vided, connected together in such a
way that a crew of eight people can
work the propeller, and crews of men
and women were tried with good re-
suits. The lifeboat was loaded up tc
its full capacity-39 people, or the
equivalent weight-and a speed of be.
tween two and three miles an hour
was reached. The boat also has a re-
verse motion. In bad weather 1t Ia

$80,500. The total appropriation is
somewhat larger than that of the cur
