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 child eat with
such relish, and it 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
1.-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.
1--WE are now a 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 I 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,

heard all over this city, fire broke out
in the high school here and destroyed
the building. The fire department was
hindered in it's work by the cold The
thermometer registered 20 degrees be-
low zero.
The building, which was valued at
$4,000, exclusive of books and equip
ment, was fire trap, according to I'M
derWriters. They said that it would
have been impossible for all pupils to
escape had the blaze occurred in the
daytime. About 625 high school and
grade students attended classes in the
building.
Insurance on the structure amount
ed to $4,000 and $1,000 on equipment.
Not an article was saved. Records of
pupils, prizes and class requests were
lost.
A strong wind carried flaming shin
giles many blocks and it was with diff
flculty that the fire was kept from
spreading. The home of former Con-
gresham E. A. Morse caught fire, but
the blaze was eXtinguished before it
did much damage. Ice and snow on
the roofs of buildings prevented the
spread of the fire.

IN ALL FUNDS THAN
YEAR AGO.
DECEMBER RECEIPTS LESS
Despite shrinkaee Of 100000 in Re-
ceipts for Last Month the
General Fund Balance Is
Well Above 1915.

Madison.-State Treasurer Henry
Johnson opens the new year with the
states finances in much better cOndi-
ton than a year ago. He has, in all,
funds amounting to $295,577.37 more
than on Jan. 1, 1915, and in the gen
eral fund $177,36555 more than year
ago.
In spite of the fact that the general
fund receipts for the month of Deem
Der were less than year ago by more
than 100000, the general fund balance
S we'll above that of twelve months
ago.
In all funds the advantage of Jan.
/, 1916, over Jan. /, 1915, appears in
the following summary:
Balance Jan. 1, 1916. 81, 906, 533.27
Balance Jan. /, 1915. ..... 1,610,955.90
Difference, favor of 1865 295, 577.37
How much better the general fund
shows Jan. 1, 1916, as compared with

There will be no necessity to call upon
