Hairs of Eock Plants.

In q certain issue of the English

short paper on the hairs of rock
plants, by K. e. Styan. The glandular
hairs of the Saxifrage are described.
The three types of hairs dealt with
are the silky or woolly hairs of the

hairs which form a felted covering to
many leaves, as in Aubretias and Alys-

occur alone or in conjunction with
one of the other types. The hairs are
mainly protective against atmospheric
conditions, but the glandular hairs
may in some cases serve to attract in

PUZZLED
Hard, Sometimes, to Raise Children

Children's taste is ofttimes more
accurate, in selecting the right kind Of
food to fit the body, than that of adults.
Nature works more accurately through
the children.
A Brooklyn lady says: "Our little boy
had long been troubled with weak
digestion. We could never persuade
him to take more than one taste of
any kind of cereal food. He was a
weak little chap and we were puzzled
to know what to feed, him on.
"One lucky day we tried Grape-Nuts.
Well, you never saw a child eat with
such a relish, and 1t did me good to
see him. From that day on It seemed
as though we could almost see him
grow. He would eat Grape-Nuts for
breakfast and supper, and / think he
would have liked the food for dinner.
"The difference in his appearance
Is something wonderful.
my husband had never fancied
cereal foods of any kind. but he be-
came very fond Of Grape-Nuts and has
been much improved in health since
using II.
I'VE are nov a healthy family and
naturally believe in Grape-Nuts.
"a friend has two children who were
formerly afflicted with ricketts,. l was
satisfied that the disease was caused
by lack of proper n~ourishment. The
children showed 1t. So l urged her
to use Grape-Nuts as an experiment
and the result was almost magical.
They continued the food and to-
day both children are as we'll and
strong as any children in this city.
and, OF course. my friend Is a frm be-
lever In Grape-Nuts, for she has the
evidence before her eyes every day"

fused to venture on the ice, and started off
around the shore. He had gone but a
short distance when he heard Young's
cries for help, and hurried back to him.
He succeeded in reaching him with poles,
but Young was too exhausted to help him

covered late in the evening.
Young was a son OF Mrs. s. A. Orcutt,
