Until He Fonnd the Hlh Food.
What a hades soma people go through be
cause their food does not supply the right
kind of nourishment to th body. Take
the following for example:
A gentleman In Baltimore aays: "About
two years ago I began to experience a pe
culiar depression occasionally, with pains
in the back part of the head and down
along the spine. Oradually my eyesight
began to fall and my memory grew poor,
A general nervousness set In. I used all
the will power I could command to help
myself, but I waa forcod to give up a good
position and aeek the advice of the family
doctor. He said neurasthenia and sent ms
to a great nerve specialist. So, tor tour
months I was massaged and dosed with
medicine, but all to no benefit; then I went
to New York and consulted Dr . He
sent me to another great specialist, and he,
in turn, sent ms to Sanitarium,
where I stayed for a long time.
"It waa the same old story. I waa dosed
with medicine and massaged and bathed
Finally I left there and went to another
specialist, who told me I would only live a
tew months. This rathsr frightened me
and I placed myself under Dr. . He
said the stomach wss at fault and probably
I had not been given the right kind of
food. ,
"He put me on a certain line of treat
ment and Insisted that I us three or four
teaapoonfuls ot Grape-Nuts each meal. t
waa under hla car for several months. ' I
steadily Improved until now I aa fully re
stored to twin ueuUl and bodily vigor.
"He explained to me that Grape-Nuts
contains a goodly portion of potash, a
nerve and brain food, and that the food b
lng partially digested, the system could
make use ot It easily. At any rate, I got
well, and both the doctor and myself know
that Orape-Nuta made It possible.
"I sincerely believe that practically all of
our nervous troubles are caused by imper
feet nourishment. - It was fortunate for
m that I eould get such a food aa Orap

publish my name, please." Name given by

Lord Palmerston said: "There I no

There Is talk ot the king creating twelve
new peer at his coronation, Including Sir
Ernest Cassel, who rendered valuable serv
ice by consolidating the king's debts aa
the prince of Wales and arranging easy
terms for their payment. Llpton la not,
apparently, to have a peerage, but must be
content with a baronetcy. Among the
prospective new nobles mentioned Is Colonel
Cornwallla West, the father-in-law of the
duke of Westminster and of Lady Randolph
Churchill. This title. In the ordinary
course ot events, would fall to young Corn
wallla Weat, so Lady Randolph Churchill,
after all, may become a peeress. Lord Ed
mund Talbot, the duke of Norfolk's brother.
la also mentioned for a peerage. The duke
of Norfolk's only child, the earl of Arundel,
who has been paralysed from birth, stands
la the way of Lord Edmund' succession to
the dukedom, but his son ultimately will
have It.
Cartall Flower at Opera.
There will be an Innovation In the deco
ration of th opera house at the gala coro
nation performance. The singers petitioned
th management against smothering the
house, as on former occasions, with flowers,
for the perfume affected their voices, which
It la said are particularly susceptible In
thla way. The management being at the
mercy of th prima donna, who Is as neces
sary to the performance as royalties them
selves, promised to use artificial flowers,
but this waa objected to by th king. Aa
a compromise only the grand tier will be
decorated with real flowers, while the more
remote parts of the house will bo festooned
with artificial ones. More than one member
of the royal family objects to the perfume
of flower. When Princes Victoria entera
th royal box ahe always instantly removes
the bouquet placed opposite her chair.
