THE DOCTORS WIFE
Agrees With Him About Food.

A trained nurse says: "In the prac-
tice OF my profession have found SO
many points in favor OF Grape-Nuts
food that I unhesitatingly recommend
1t to all my patients.
1T is delicate and pleasing to the
palate Ian essential in food for the
sick) and can be adapted to all ages,
being softened with milk or cream for
babies or the aged when deficiency OF
teeth renders mGstication impossible.
For fever patients or those on liquid
diet I find Grape-Nuts and albumen
water very nourishing and refreshing.
This recipe is my own idea and is
made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful
Of Grape-Nuts in glass Of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white Of an egg and a spoonful
Of fruit juice for davouring. This af-
fords a great deal Of nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can asslmI.
late without any distress.
my husband is physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders It
many times for his patients.
Personally regard a dish OF Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or
sick"
In stomach trouble. nervous prostra-
tion, ETC., Today trial OF Grape.Nuts
will usually work wonders toward
nourishing and rebuilding and in this
way end the trouble. Name given by

MOTHBALLS A WAR LUXURY
Price Of Pungent Marbles Has Been
ouadrupled since Hostillties
Began.

The war has affected various
household and commercial necessi.
ties in the past nine months, but who
for an instant thought that the com.
mon mothball would become a lux.
ury? Such is the case, however, and
the housewife is just beginning to
realize that there is not only a dearth
in the supply, but that they have in
creased almost four times in price.

cleaning period and packing away Of
the winter furs and garments she
is learning it to her dismay. To the
pawnbroker and storage house pro-
prietor this is also unwelcome news.
Before the war mothballs were as
cheap as clothespins. Then it was
that Mrs. Homebody could run
around to the corner drug store
about this time of the year and buy
six pounds for a quarter. Now that
amount will buy her but a little
more than a pound Of the pungent
crystallized balls.
All this, wholesale dealers in
pharmacists supplies say, is due to
the war, and they explain it in this
manner: Before the war England
sent to this country most of the
naphthalene, of which mothballs are
made. Since last August not a ship
ment has been made.

POET OF NEW ENGLAND
Robert Frost 10 Called by the Critics
a Star Of Exceptional
Magnitude.

A poet star of exceptional magni-
tude has risen for New England,
says the American Review of Re-
views. Yet it was in old England
that it emerged from a misty hori-
zon, there to be recognized for what
1t was. The book which has brought
to its author this measure of fame
bears the title, as felicitous as sig
niicant, "North of Boston"
The poet is Robert Frost, born in
San Francisco of a New England fa-
Their and a Scotch mother, March
&c, 1875. The elder Frost was then
a newspaper editor in the Pacific
metropolis and was prominent in
local politics. He went thither from
Lawrence, in Massachusetts he died
when the boy was eleven years old.
and the family returned to their old
home.
His secondary schooling over, Rob-
ert Frost went to Dartmouth college
for a while. Not finding what he
felt he wanted, he turned to Har-
ward, there to be no better satisfied.
This breaking away from educational
opportunity made the impression
among family connections of ne'er-
do-well inclinations, correspondingly
impairing material prospects that
otherwise would have been bright for
him. But his was one of the ma
lures that must grow in their own
way if they are not to break. His
studies away from academic bonds
appear to have given him as much
as he had gathered within. Alto
gether, he managed to assimilate
what he needed. His bent was
toward psychology, and its fruit is
discernible in his poetry.
