a child and could not

Styles
Frances Dolly teacher of scientific
housekeeping ut Western Reserve uni
versify comments that most styles
live only four years
“The first year the style Is shown by
exclusive bouses The second It Is
worn by the best-dressed group in
the third year it Is worn by everyone
and the fourth It continues popular
with some”
That Is also true of thought By
the time progressives get tlielr Ideas
broadcasted to all the Ideas have be-
come obsolete new styles of “reform"
crowding them out
The last to see the light are the con-
servatives "old fogies” They are nec-
essary like the big chunk of Iron at
the end of a hitching strap to keep
the prancing reformers from running
away

Lawli No Longer Popular With Work-
men In Hamburg Germany
8ayi Writer
Keener competition Is causing a de-
cided swing away from ninny post-
war pet Ideas In Germany Even the
eight-hour law 1b no longer popular
Frederick Slmplch writes In Our
World The labor Inspection bureau
In a recent report pictures the trouble
Its enforcement Is bringing as Ham-
burg's economic condition Improved
Employers complain that laborers of
both sexes after an eight-hour dny
undertake to do outside work for other
people— wlilch cuts down tlielr effi-
ciency on their regulnr Job Workers
on the other hand consider It an In-
terference with their personal liberty
If their employers try to hold them
to the eight-hour plan Although the
law wns pnssed to safeguard the health
of the workers they appear to hove
lost sight of Its real Intention nnd the
authorities show reluctance to prose-
cute cases of Its vlolntton In the ho-
tels and cafes especially It has been
difficult to enforce the eight-hour day
waiters are loath to give up their
chances for more tips during overtime

Fabled Says Professor Who Has

The Assyrian Is popularly recalled
as coming down “like a wolf on the
fold" But one provision of the As-
syrian code of laws Indicates that the
Assyrians are more humane thnn they
are popularly fabled This requires
that the destitute widow be supported
by her pons “ns the bride whom one
loves"
Instead of the Assyrians being whol-
ly abject tlielr letters says Trot A

for Health
GRAPE-NUTS is a regular "three
bags full” of the best food quali-
ties of whole wheat flour and malted
barley carefully mixed and slowly
baked—
To develop all their appetizing flavor
To preserve all their wholesomeness
And to provide nature's “broom” that keeps the diges
five system spick and span
There’s not a bit of artificial sweetening in Grape-Nuts
—it just becomes sweet of its own accord in the long baking
And that enticing flavor— how good it is with good milk
or cream! Fruits too fresh or cooked add to the delight of
a dish of Grape-Nuts morning noon or sundown
It is a compact ready-to-eat food— no cooking needed
Why not try it for tomorrow’s breakfast?
