Almost everyone likes a cereal food of some kind at breakfast and supper, but the ordinary way of cooking cereals results in a pasty mass that is ard to digest, and if not properly digested, the raw mass goes down into the intestinal tract where gas is generated and trouble follows. - Everyone knows, that good food properly digested keeps the body well, while poor food, or even food of good quality that is poorly prepared and not digested, is sure to bring on some kind of disease. The easiest food to digest In this line is Grape-Nuts, made from wheat and barley, and cooked thoroughly at the factory, some 12 to 16 hours be ing consumed in the different pro cesses cf preparation. The food, therefore, Is ready for instant ser vie? and the starch has been changed to a form of Sugar, so that it is pre digested and ready for almost imme diate absorption. A Chicago young lady writes that she suffered for years from indiges tion and dyspepsia from the use of food that was not suitable to her powers of digestion. She says: "I began using Grape-Nuts, and I confess to having had a prejudice at first, and was repeatedly urged before I finally decided to try tb.9 food, but 1 .have r.ot known what indigestion is Oince using it, and have never been otronger or in better health.

A JAPANESE STORY. Once upon a time, a very sting: priest lived In a temple with a youni disciple. One day he rec?ived iron a neighbor a present of some ankor omochl (rice dumplings covered wit! sweetened bean paste). He was jus going on, and not wishing to shan the sweetmeats with his disciple, h< hid them in Buddah's shrine in th? Hondo (the main hall of the temple) But the "boy knew of the present found the ankoromochi and ate It al J, but a little of the paste, which h< smeared about the mouth of the imag< of Buddha. " Then with an innocen countenance he waited the return o his mast?.1. Soon the priest cam( back, and with pleasant anticipations went immediately to the shrine tc get his sweetmeats, but found noth ng except the empty box. Of course he suspected the hoy, and was verj angry. Calling him, the master sSid "Wllat have you done with my ankor omochi?" The disciple replied, "Teach er, I know nothing about lt, but i few. minutes before you came back J heard sounds in the direction of thc Hondo, and I think if we will go there we will learn something about the an koromochi. Please let us go." So th? priest went again to the Hondo, and this timef<he perceived the bean paste around the mouth of the image ol Buddha. .When he saw that he was sure the god had eaten his mochi, and was very angry; and struck the image with his stick. As it was made ol metal, when struck it give a hollow sound, "Kwan, kwan." The Japanese word for "I do not eat" has the same sound exactly, explains Agnes Mor gan in an exchange, so the priest took this for a denial on the part of the god, and his anger increased. Shout ing, "You rascal, you must have eaten it! Look at your mouth. There is bean paste all around it, yet you deny having eaten it!" He dragged down the image and throwing it into a large kettle boiled it over a hot fire. Then the god confessed, "Kutta, kutta!" This word represents the sound made by the bubbling of boiling wat.er, also the word for "I did eat."-Home Hen aid. As It Striketh the Philosopher.

Others refer to Peruna as a great catarrh remedy. Which of these people are right? Is it more proper to call Peruna a ca tarrh remedy than to call it s tonic? Our reply is, that Peruna is both a tonic and a catarrh remedy. Indeed, there can he no effectual catarrh rem edy that is not also a tonic. In order to thoroughly relieve any case of catarrh, a remedy must not only have a specific action on the ma cons membranes affected by the ca tarrh, bat it mast have a general tonio action on the nervous system, Catarrh, even in persona who are otherwise strong, is a weakened con dition of some mucous membrane. There most be something to strength en the circulation, to give tone to the arteries, and to raise the vital forces. Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the world nae attracted so much attention from medical writers as HYDEASTIS C?KADENSIS. The wonderful effi cacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold npon the medical -profession. When joined with CUE EES and COPAIBA a trio of medical agents is formed in Pa runa which constitutes a specific rem edy for catarrh that in the present state of medical progress cannot he improved npon. This action, rein forced by such renowned tonics as COLHSSONIA CANADENSIS, COB YDA1IS poEMOSA and CEDECN SEED, ought to make this /compound an ideal remedy for catarrh, in all its stages and locations in the body. Prom a theoretical standpoint, there fore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The tue of Peruna, confirms this opinion. Numberless testimonials from every quarter of the earth famish ampio evidence that this judgment is not overenthusiastic. When practical ex perience confirma a well-groanded the oiy the result is a troth that cannot bo einakea. Peruna is sold by your local drug gist. Ruy a bottle today. So. 42-'07. What Winning Means.

BACKACHE AND MISS LENA NAGEL Are both symptoms of organic de rangement, and nature's warning to women of a trouble which will soon er or later declare itself. How often do we hear women say, "It seems as though my back would, break." Yet they continue to drag along and suiter with aches in the small of the back, pain low down in the side, dragging sensations, nerv ousness and no ambition. They do not realize that the back is the main-spring of woman's organ ism and quickly indicates by aching a diseased condition of the feminine organs or kidneys, and that aches and pains will continue until the cause is removed.. Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs has been for many, years tho most successful remedy in such cases. No other medicine has such a record of cures of fominine ills. Miss Lena Nagel, of 117 Morgan St., Buffalo, N. Y., writes:- "I was completely worn out and on the verge of nervous prostration. My backjJ ached all the time. I had dreadful periods of pain, waa subject to fits 1 of crying and extreme nervousness, and was always weak and tired. Lydia E. Pinkham's .Vegetable Compound completely cured me." Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cures Female Complaints, such as Backache. Palling and Displacements, and all Organic Diseases. Dissolves and expels Tumors ot an early stage.
