One of her "souvenirs" the police sty, was a pall of lard weighing twenty pounds. Evidence Difficult to Secure. The police and state's attorney are meet ing with the usual difficulties in their at tempt to discover the leaders of the riot.

It has been said by a physician that most diseases are the result of Indigestion. There's undoubtedly much truth In- the statement, even to the cause of many un sightly eruptions which many suppose can be removed by applying some remedy on the outside. By changing her food a Kan. girl was relieved of eczema which was a great annoyance to her. She writes: "for five months I was suffering with an eruption on my face and hands which our doctor called eczema and which caused me a great deal of Inconvenience. The suffering was almost unbearable; "The medliclne I took only gave me tempory relief. One day I happened to read somewhere that eczema was caused by indigestion. Then I read that many persons had been relieved of indigestion by eating Grape-Nuts. "I decided to try it. I liked the taste of the food and was particularly pleased to notice that my digestion was Improving and that the eruption was disappearing as If by magic. I had at .last found, in this greats food, something that reached my trouble. "When I find a victim of this affliction I remember my own former suffering and advise a trial ot 'Grape-Nuts food Instead of medicines." "There's a Reason."
