shoes—had been affixed, prongs

The Simple Dish That Keeps Cne Vig-
orous and Well Fed.
When the doctor takes his ow:i
medicine and the grocer eats the food
he recommends oome confidence comes
to the observer.
A Grocer of Ossian. Ind., had a
practical experience with food worth
an>one's attention.
He says: "Six years ago I became
so weak from stomach and bowel
trouble that 1 was finally compelled
to give up all work in my store, and j
in fact all sorts of work, for about four
years. The last year I was confined to
tho bed nearly all of the time, and
much of the time unable to retain
food of any sort on my stomach. My
bowels were badly constipated con-
tinually and I lost in weight from
16o pounds down to 88 pounds.
"When at the bottom of the ladder
I changed treatment entirely and
started in on Grape-Nuts and cream
for nourishment. I used absolutely
nothing but this for about three
months. I slowly improved until 1
got out of bed and began to move
about.
"1 have been improving regularly
and now in the past two years have
been working about fifteen hours a
day !n tho store and never felt better
in my life.
"During these two years have
never missed a breakfast of Grape-
Nuts and cream, and often have it
two meals a day, but the entire break-
fast is always made of Grape-Nvs ar .l
cream alone.
"Sinco commencing the use of
Grape-Nuts 1 have never used any-
thing to stimulate tho action of the
bowels, a thing 1 had to do for years,
but this food keeps me regular and in
tine shape, and I am growing stronger
and heavier every day.
"My customers, naturally, have been
interested and I am compelled to an-
swer a great many questions about
Grape-Nuts.
"Some people would think that a
simple dish of Grape Nuts and cream
would not carry one through to tho
noonday meal, but it will and in the
most vigorous fashion."

The Electric Water Faucet.
Some of the electric devices for
household use are marvels of ingenu-
ity and convenience. A little electric
heater is shown which can be screwed
on to any faucet and which will fur-
nish a half gallon of water per min-
ute nt 100 degrees temperature. It
will give a faster stream at a lower
temperature, or a slower stream at
a higher temperature. All double
piping and hot water apparatus can
be eliminated by the simple adjust-
ment of one of these heaters, at sink,
bathtub or washbowl.
Then there is an arrangement
known as the "suspended unit" beat-
er, which is a nickel or silver-plated
tube, connected by wire with any
lighting circuit, and which may be
dropped into any liquid it is desired
to heat. With it baby's food may be
warmed in a few moments, eggs or
coffee boiled in few minutes or a
bath tub of water warmed sufficiently
In half an hour.
Handy Kitchen Utensil.
Most of the devices which the in-
ventor has turned out for use in the
kitchen have been designed for the
purpose of economiizng time and la-
bor for those who do the housework.
Some of these articles are so small
and trivial that they hardly seem
worth while, and yet they find their
way into many a kitchen and are used
almost daily by the housewife.
In the accompanying illustration is
shown one of these little implements,
designed for the purpose of removing
the eyes from potatoes and specks
and imperfections from other vege-
tables or from fruit. The device con-
sists of a V-shaped beak, which is de-
signed to be inserted just beneath the
eye, or spot, when the trigger is pulled
with the forefinger, closing the upper
jaw down over the lower and biting
out the spot it is desired to remove.

Big Hairpin Factory.
The greatest of the world's manu-
factories of hairpins is at Painswlck,
a village in the Stroud valley, at tho
foot of the Cotswolds. There are 110
fewer than three hundred persons em-
ployed in turning out these trifles of
the boudoir, and hundreds of auto-
matic machines are in constant opera
tion transforming miles of wire into
tons of finished pins.—London En-

Down to the Sea in Ships.
Statisticians find that something
like 2,000 vessels of all sorts disap-
pear in the sea every year, never to
be heard from again, taking with
them 12,000 human beings, and in-
volving a money loss of $100,000,000.

Men With Feminine Tastes.
Whenever a man is found to have
tastes commonly considered feminine,
he is almost sure to be a distinguished
personage. For instance, Sir Walter
Scott, Mohammed, Dr. Wolsey, Riche-

poet Gray were all excessively for.<1 ui

and rapidly with this little tool than it
can be done with a sharp-pointed
knife, and with less danger of cutting
the fingers, to say nothing of staining
the hands with juice of the fruit or
vegetable being prepared for cooking.

Fuel From Neglected Sources.
Interesting experiments are going
on in various parts of the world look-
ing toward the cheapening of fuel and
the more perfect burning of the coal
mined in great industrial countries
like the United States. Germany has
nearly 300 concerns which work up
coal dust into condensed fuel known
as briquettes, and these fuel factories
convert a vast amount of coal dust
into forms which permit its use for
many purposes, with entire satisfac-
tion to those who employ it. Enor-
mous quantities of coal dust have been
allowed to go to waste In the United
States, and some authorities calcu-
late tho loss at not less than one and
one-half times as much as the pres-
ent coal consumption of the country.
Here is a great chance to save fuel
which will some day be much needed.
World's Largest Wireless Station.
What is claimed will be the largest
station for wireless telegraphy in the
world is nearing completion at Pisa
Italy. It will be ready by the end of
the year. Through this station direct
connection will be afforded with all
countries of Europe, as well as tho
United States and Canada, and with
all vessels on the Mediterranean, In
dlan and Atlantic oceans.
An Honest Opinion.
Mineral, Idaho, Nov. 14th.— (Spe-
cial.)—That a sure cure has been
discovered for those sciatic pains that
make so many lives miserable, is the
firm opinion of Mr. D. S. Colson, a
well known resident of this place,
and he does not hesitate to say that
cure is Dodd's Kidney Pills. The
reason Mr. Colson is so Arm in hi3
opinion is that lie had those terrible
pains and Is cured. Speaking of the
aiatter he says:
"I am only too happy to say Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me lots of
good. I had awful pains in my hip
so I could hardly walk. Dodd's Kid-
ney Pills stopped it entirely. 1 think
they are a grand medicine."
All sciatic and Rheumatic pains are
caused by Uric Acid in the blood.
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy
Kidneys, and healthy Kidneys strain
all the Uric Acid out of the blood.
With the cause removed there can bo
no Rheumatism or Sciatica.
Median Age of Negroes.
The median age of negroes is 19.4
yeais—that is, half tho negroes in tho
United States are below that age. The
median age is four years below that of
the whites (23.4 years), a difference
closely connected with the high birth
rate and high death rate of the ne-
groes.
