and later dropsy set in; her face AND
limbs swelled and her eyes pulled.
leading physician here at the time,
treated her without the slightest sue
cess. A sample of your Swamp-Root
having been left at the house at the
time, resolved to try it, and as It
agreed with her stomach / continued
using it with gratifying results. The
Inflammation began to subside after
she had taken the first fiftycent
bottle, and after she took two large
bottles she was pronounced cured by
the doctor and has been in good
health ever since. The doctor came
to see her every day and examined
her every second day until he pro
nounoed her kidneys in perfect condi
ton.
Now then the doctor was under the
impression that was giving my girl
his medicine, but as his medicine had
failed to do bit of good. and desir-
ing not to offend him. did not tell
him was giving her Swamp-Root and
he did not know the difference. did
not use one drop Of his medicine aft.

FRESH AT NIGHT IT One Uses the Right Kind of Food.

If by proper selection of food one can feel strong and fresh at the end of a days work, 1t is worth while to know the kind of food that will produce this result .s
 A school teacher out in Kansas says in this connection:
 At the time I commenced the use of Grape-Nuts my health was so poor that I thought I would have to give up my work altogether. I was rapidly losing in weight had little appetite. was nervous and sleepless and ex- perienced, almost constantly, feel ing of exhaustion. 1T tried various remedies without good results; then I determined to give particular attention to my food, l and have learned something of the properties of Grape-Nuts for rebuild ing body, brain, and nerves.
 Since using Grape-Nuts have made constant and rapid improve l ment in health, in spite of the fact that all this time I have been engaged in | strenuous and exacting work. 1T have gained twelve pounds in weight and have good appetite, my nerves are steady and I sleep sound I have such strength and reserve force that I feel almost as strong | and fresh at the close of days | work as at the beginning.
 Before using Grape-Nuts I was l troubled much with weak eyes bu! as my vitality increased the eyes be- came stronger. | "I never heard of another food as
 nutritious and economical as Grape. Nuts" - l There's a Reason"

ALLIES BEGIN SUBSEA
RAIDS AGAINST TURKS
Golden Horn Bridge Blown Up and
ConstantinopIe Cut Off
From Asia.

London, Aug. 4.-Great Britain and
france have started to carry the sub
marine war to Germany From the
Dardanelles to the North sea the al
lies undersea craft have opened a
campaign against the Germans and
Turks which already has cut Constan-
tinople off form ASIA thrown the city
into terror and sunk German tor
pedo-boat destroyer, a 3,O00-ton Turk
ish steamer and two Turkish trans
ports.
One French and second British
submarine, according to official an
nouncements on Monday, augmented
by press dispatches, succeeded in
forcing the Dardanelles and dashing
to Constantinople through the Sea of
Marmora. Within sight of the Turk
ish capital the submarines shelled and
blew up the Galata bridge across the
Golden Horn, connecting Constantine
pie with Asiatic Turkey, according to
dispatch to the Times from Mitylene
To add to the terror of the Turks
the British submarine then stole into
the harbor and almost under the walls
of the Top-Kaneh arsenal in Constan-
tnople, where it sent a torpedo into a
transport and sent it to the bottom.
The craft followed this by sinking an
other transport in Karabogha bay.
According to dispatches from Mu-
dros this exploit threw the entire
Turkish capital into terror.
The feat of the British submarine,
as announced by the admiralty, has
added another exploit to the annals of
warfare by bombarding shore posi-
lions with torpedoes. Turkish powder
mills and the railway of Kara Burnu,
along the Sea of Marmora, were at
tackled
Another admiralty statement says:
"a British submarine has returned
and reports the sinking of German
torpedo-boat destroyer, believed to be
of the G-196 class, on July rs, near the
German coast"
