T really feel that it is hardly pos sible to say to much in favor of Grape Nuts as health food" writes Ia Chicago lady.
 For or 10 years l had suffered from indigestion and chronic consti- patton, caused by the continued use of coffee and rich, heavy foods. My ailments made my life so wretched that I was eager to try anything that held out a promise of help. And that is how I happened to buy a package of Grape Nuts food last spring.
 That ended my experiments. For in Grape-Nuts found exactly what I wanted and needed. From the day provement and in a very few weeks found my health was being re- stored.
 My digestive apparatus now works perfectly and chronic constipation has been entirely relieved. I have gained in weight materially, and life is q very pleasant thing to me so long as use Grape-Nuts once or twice day. I have found by ex- pertinent that if I leave it off for a few days my health suffers.
 "A physician in our town has great success in treating stomach troubles, and the secret of it is that he puts his patient on Grape-Nuts food-it always brings back the power of di gestion."

NEW YORK. June 22-The most important development of the day was the announcement toward the close of arrangements being completed for the placing of the French loan in this country backed by the Rothschilds. AL though definite details were lacking the news was of sufficient interest to bring a general recovery in quoted val ues from the early irregularity leaving a number of net gains.

Weather Bureau Says Eas- ter Emery Will Not Sui fer from Unusual Storm of Yesterday on the At lantic Seaboard
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArCH1

WASHINGTON, April g. - The weather bureau promised tonight re- lief for tomorrows Easter filery from the unusual storm which held the entire Atlantic seaboard in a wintry grip for A hours. Fair weather in the South and Central At lantic states and clearing weather in Eastern New York and New Eng land was the forecast after a day of snow, rain and wind.
 Weather bureau officials said that while the Easter snow storm was not unprecedented, so general a fall of snow Tn April was unusual. The dis turbance placed the entire Atlantic coast from Northern Florida to Maine in winter habit, and brought with it winds that at times approached cy- clone velocity About nineteen inches of snow were reported at Philadel- phia, breaking all records in the his tory of the weather bureau there.
 The foreCaster predicted tonight that the storm would be entirely passed in the South and Central At l&ntic states by tomorrow, but said that blustry winds and the after ei- fects of the disturbance would put a damper on Easter parades in New York and New England.

A little more than a year ago the city of Phoenix shed it's antiquated hobble skirts and put on the up-to- date garments of progress. The tax payers fondly dreamed and hoped that they were coming into their own and now would get some real bene- ficial return for the vast sums of money they are called upon to con- tribute every year and have been so contributing for a quarter of a cen tury, aside from the graft and politi- cal machinery which has cursed the city for years. Vain hope, ''The last condition is worse than the first" Today we are asked to take our charter to pieces by removing the keystone No army ever fought a successful battle with two leaders of equal authority and rank.
