 Many mothers instead of destroying the children's stonacfs with candy and cake give the youngsters a hand ful of Grape-Nuts when they are beg ging for something in the way of sweets. The result is soon shown in greatly increa sed health, strength and mental activity.

CHRISTMAS GIFTS THAT
 THE JASON CARRIED
Toys and Candy Distributed to French
 and Belgian Children.

Details of the presentation of the Christmas gifts sent by American school children to the children of France and Belgium by way oi the Christmas ship Jason, to which many Eastern Connecticut organizations contributed, are contained in a cable to the state department at Washing ton from Ambassador Sharp at Paris. Tho presentation took place last Sun day. His cable dated Monday follows:
 '': Yesterday afternoon in the grand salon of the municipal building, the Hotel de Vile, the distribution of presents was made to more than 5000 French and Belgian refugee children, many of whose fathers have fallen in the war Many of the mothers were present The presents were the Christmas gifts brought out by the Jason from the school children of the United States and consisted of a great variety oi toys. 4 number of the pack ages were accompanied by written messages conveying the good wishes of the children who sent them and were expressed in g. most feeling man ner.
 Every effort was madme by the Paris officials to make the occa sion one that should fitingly attest the deep feeling of gratitude of the French people to givers. For this purpose the rooms of the beautiful building were thrown open to the pub lie and sentimental compliment was expressed to America in the selec- ton of F1'anklin's birthday as the date for the ceremony.
 Madame Poincare sraciously lent her presence to the occasion and dis trIbuted many of the presents to the unfortunate children. In addition to ! the toys a large number of boxes of chocolates were given by chaiital1,, French people,

TELLS HOW TO
CAN SWEET CORN

Department of Home Economics
of University of Missouri
Gives Directions for House.
wives.
Now when good sweet corn is
so easily procured is the time for
the housewife to can some for
use next winter. When the corn
selected is young and tender and
it is canned soon after gatheing,
the product is far superior to
the commercially canned corn.
Those who have tried home
canned corn one year do not
have to be urged to try it again.
According to the department
Of home economics of the Uni
versity of Missouri at Colum-
bia, corn is more difficult to can
than fruits and most other veg
etables. This is because the
corn forms such a compact mass
that it is hard to heat through,
and because it is more difficult
to kill the Heterogeneous
which cause it to spoil.
To can corn, boil it in sailed
water, just as if you were going
to serve it, from 10 to Is min
utes. Cut it from the cob and
pack it in quart jars. Add
enough boiling water to COM
pletely cover and a rounding
teaspoon of salt to each quart.
Put on the covers of the Jars
loosely and place the jars on a
rack OF some KIND IN a boiler.
Put in enough clean water to
completely cover and boil four
hours, counting from the time
when the water commences to
boil. When the time is up, re-
move the jars from the water
and tighten the lids while the
jars are still hot. This is more
easily done with a spring seal
than with a screw neck jar.
The department of home
economics of the University of
Missouri at Columbia will be
glad to send a bulletin in can
ming to anyone who will write
for it.

WHAT'S THE REASON?
Many Lexington People in Poor
Health Without Knowing
the Cause.

There are scores of people who
drag out a miserable existence
without realizing the cause of
their suffering. Day after day
they are racked with backache
and headache; suffer from ner-
vousness, dizziness, weakness.
languor and depression. Perhaps
the kidneys have fallen behind
in their work of fltering the
blood and that may be the root
of the trouble. Look to your
kidneys-assist them in their
work-give them the help they
need. You can use no more
highly recommended remedy
than Doan's Kidney Pills.
Below is grateful testimony
from a sufferer in this locality.
Mrs. c. E. Walton, Box 1872
Wellington, Mo-, says: zone of
my family had severe attacks of
lumbago and for weeks at a
time was confined to bed. Dur
ing these spells, the patients
back panied severely and the
kidney secretions were unnat-
ural. Two boxes of Doan's Kid
ney Pills made a lasting cure.D
