THE DOCTORS WIFE
Agrees With Him About Food.


A trained nurse says: "In the prac-
tice Of my profession I have found so
many points in favor of Grape-Nuts
food that / unhesitatingly recommend
II to all my patients.
1T is delicate and pleasing to the
palate ian essential in food for the
sick ,and a be adapted to all ages,
being softened with milk or cream for
babies or the aged when deficiency Of
teeth renders mastication impossible.
For fever patients or those on liquid
diet ! find Grape-Nuts and albumen
water very nourishing and refreshing.
This recipe is my own idea and Is
made as follows: Soak a %teasDoOnful
Of Grape-Nuts in a glass Of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white Of an egg and a spoonful
of fruit juice for havouring. This af-
fords a great deal Of nourishment that
even the weakest stomach car assiml-
late without any distress.
"My husband Is a physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders It
many times for his patients.
Personally l regard a dish Of Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or
sick.'N
In stomach trouble, nervous prostra-
ton, etc. a Today trial Of Grape-Nuts
will usually work wonders toward
nourishing and rebuilding and in THO
way end the trouble. Name given BY

Santa Fe,-An opinion handed down
by the State Supreme Court lean
that county officers must go payless
unless the Legislature passes a salary
bill. Commissioners in nearly every
county have allowed officers advance
money against the time when a salary
bill would be enacted. The opinion
was given in the case Of the State ex

Montoya Of Socorro. The Socorro
county commissioners allowed As
SCISSOR Baca $1,000 for deputy hire, but
Treasurer Montoya refused to pay the
warrants. Passing through intricate
legal procedure, the case finally
reached the Supreme Court, which
supported Montoya. Under the opin-
ion. county officers must pay deputies
out OF their own pockets. County Of
