PUZZLED
Hard, Sometimes, to Raise Children,

Childrens taste is Outlines more
accurate, in selecting the right kind Of
food to At 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 relish, and 1t did me good to
see him. From that day on II 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 IT,
I'VE are now healthy family and
naturally believe in Grape-Nuts.
"A friend has two children who were
formerly afflicted with ricketts,. was
satisfied that the disease was caused
by lack Of proper nourishment. The
children showed It. 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 well and
strong as any children in this city,
and. Of course, my friend is a firm be-
lever in Grape-Nuts. for she has the
evidence before her eyes every day."

mittee for Army Of One Million

has placed before the House military
affairs committee his formal argument
in behalf of the administrations army

eral force of more than a million men
in six years, accumulation of huge re.
serve OF ammunition and equipment
and elaborate extension Of coast de-
tense, the whole project involving an
increased expense Of $600,000,000 and
an annual war department budget
thereafter of more than 5000, 100000, as
compared with an average of 100000
900 for the last few years.
"The integrity of the nation and its
very existence the secretary said
reading from a lengthy statement he
had prepared, may depend upon what
is done in this matter at this time
This great opportunity will be lost un-
less a wise, sensible and practical pol
icy is the result OF the consideration
and action Of this Congress"
Turning to the national guard, Mr..
Garrison said:
AT present this force consists of
approximately 10000 men and officers
and it would therefore be necessary, II
it is to be expanded to 100000. to add
I'll 900 men and officers. /, therefore,
propose large addition to the federal
aid extended to the national guard, so
that the system may be operated to its
maximum capacity and be available
for the federal purposes specified in its
most effective condition"
The secretary then outlined the con.
tinental army plan, which proposes to
raise 400, 900 men in annual increments
of $4,000 each from districts approx
mating the 400 congressional districts,
each to supply 1893 men annually. The
men would enlist for three years with
the colors and three years on furlough,
and would be armed, equipped and
Offered. Their training would be
done by the officers and men of the
regular army organization and they
would be paid during the time of their
service on the same basis as the reg
ular army.

for this statement is evident from the

Washington.-Two communications
from Germany have reached the Unit

pay an indemnity for the Americans
lost In the Lusitania disaster, which
may bring negotiations on that sub
ject to q conclusion, and the other con-
veying assurances that German sub
marine commanders operating In the
Mediterranean would not torpedo nom

The communication were delivered
TO Secretary Lansing by Count Won

The secretary Immediately sent them
to President Wilson.

that America and Germany at last are
near a final agreement regarding the
conduct Of submarine warfare. Off,

Tension regarding the entire sub

assured the United States of its in
tentions to operate submarines with
due regard for International law and
the principles of humanity; Turkey
and Bulgaria, 1t is understood, next
will take steps to give such guaran-
tees. 1t is stated authoritatively that
Germany and Austria-Hungsry will
use their influence to accomplish this
end.
The Lusitania controversy, except

into, is considered in Teutonic
circles here virtually as being ended.

ENGLAND FACES CRISIS

London.-The question on every

Is whether the recent momentous
events in the passage of the conscrip

many doubts are expressed that 1t will
succeed in weathering the storm.
No cabinet council has yet been an

beers OF the House Of Commons are
adverse to general election, but an
appeal to the country may come about
In either of two ways.
First, the House Of Lords could with.
out the consent Of the government
bring the life of Parliament to an end
by simply declining to proceed with
the Parliament and registration bill
which prolongs the life OF Parliament
eight months.
On the other hand, it may still be
found that Reginald McKenna, chan.
cellor of the excheQuer, and Walter
Runciman, president OF the board OF
trade, are quitting the cabinet, though
nothing yet is known of their position,
In which case 1t would not be improb.
able that the government would seek
an exit from its difficulties by resign
Ing and appealing to the country.
