THE WAY OUT
Change of Food Brought Success
and Happiness.
An' ambitious but delicate girl,
after failing to go through school
on account of nervousness and hys-
teria, found in' Grape -Nuts the only
thing that seemed to build her: •up
and furnish her the peace of
health.
"From infancy," she says, "I
have not been strong. Being am-
bitions to learn at any cost I final-
j1y got,to the High School but soon
ad to -abandon my studies on ac-
count of nervous prostration and
hysteria.
"My food did not agree with me,
and I grew thin and despondent.
I could not enjoy the simplest so-
cial affair for I:suffered constantly
from nervousness in spite of all
sorts of medicines,
"This wretched condition contin-
ued until I became interested in the
letters of those who had cases like
mine and who' were being helped
by eating Grape -Nuts.
"I. had little faith, but pnocured
gia pkg. and, after the first dish I
experienced a peculiar satisfied
feeling that. I had never 'gained
'from any ordinary food. I slept
and rested better that night and in
a few days began to grow stronger.
"I had a. news' feeling of peace
sand restfulness. In a few weeks,
to my great joy, the headache's and
nervousness left me and life 'be-
naiihe bright and hopeful. I re-
sumed my studies and later taught
ten months with ease — using
grape -Nuts every day., I am now
the mistress of a (happy home, and
?he old weakness has' never re-
turned."

SOUP AND. SOLDIERS. " •
�._ Doing Wonders
Military Experts Think Too Much
Is a Mistake.
The Frenchman's fondness for
soupis proverbial. It is strongly
in evidence among the soldiers now
at the front, who subsist largely on
soup or on stews, which amount to
practically the same thing.
English military experts are in-
clined to think that this is a seri-
ous mistake, They believe that
such sameness of diet leads to stale-
ness among even the healthiest of
men, and that the French would
fight better if they ate more sub-
stantial food, such as the roast beef
and mutton ohops of which the
English are so fond.
But although the English believe
their soldiers are better fed than
the French, they have to admit
that they owe the present excel-
lence of their military cuisine to a
Frenchman. While England was
fighting in Crimea sixty years ago
Alexis. Sayer, the celebrated chef,
went there and, with nothing but
the regular rations to work upon,
soon revolutionized the army's
methods of cooking.
He found the camp cooks at
Scutari and in other placestying
the joints intended for boiling so
tightly that the exterior was cooked
while the inside remained raw, He
found cooking going on in huge cop-
per 'caldrons so dark that it was not
possible to see whether the tinning
was intact—whether the water was
not contaminated by verdigris.
He found them marking their ra-
tions, "lest they should be eau -
founded in the kettle," by attach
ing. to them pieces of red cloth, a
string of buttons, knives, forks,
scissors, pairs of snuffers. He
found them throwing away the fat
from the coppers, three inches
thick, for they did not know that
they were thus destroying "a little
sea" of excellent soup. He found
them sometimes cooking with
smoke, dust and steam intermixed
instead of fire, and yet consumed
"a fabulous quantity of unneces-
sary fuel."
Ina a Woman Suffers
IVitli 'Chronic Backache
There Is Trouble Ahead.
Constantly on their feet, attending
to the wants of a large and exacting
family, women often break down with
nervous exhaustion.
In the stores, factories, and on a
farm are weak, ailing women, dragged
down with torturing backache and
bearing down pains.
Such suffering isn't natural, but it's
dangerous, because due to diseased
kidneys. •
The dizziness, insomnia, deranged
menses and other symptoms of kidney
complaint can't cure themselves, they
require the assistance of Dr. Hamil-
ton's Pills which go direct to the seat
of the trouble.
To give vitality and power to the
kidneys, to lend aid to the bladder and
liver, to free the blood of poisons,
probably there is no remedy so suc-
cessful as Dr. Hamilton's Pills. For
all womanly irregularities their merit
is well known.
Because of their mild, soothing, and
healing effect, Dr, Hamilton's Pills are
safe, and are recommended for girls
and 'women of all ages. .25 cents per

LACK OF *MONEY END WAR.
Expenditure t'p to That Time Will
be $16,990,000,000.
Edgar Cm -mond, a prominent
financial writer of London, read a
paper before the Royal 'Statistical
Society recently ;dealing with the
cost of the war. In his opinion the
war must end in July through the
exhaustion of some of the -belliger-
ents.
Mr. Crammond estimates the total
cost of the war to the end of July
as $16,990,000,000, and the total
economic loss, through damage to
property and 'other direct and indir-
ect losses at $40,740,000,000. He
estimates that Great •Britain alone
will spend up to the ,end of . July
£708,000,000.
The London Times,. commenting
on Mr. iCramsnond's figures, thinks
he takes a somewhat exaggerated
view, although he is in possession of
facts which •entitle his opinion to
respect. The Times points out that
Premier Asquith's estimate of
Great Britain's expenditure during
the same period was only 2500,600;-
000, but adds : "This certainly now
appears to low, even if Mr. Cram -
mend's estimate is too high."

tjs� An Incident in the Life of the
Late
Rheums
WHAT rFaTu F. PATTERSON
SAYS OI' DODD'S KID.
NEY PILLS,
Gaspe County Man Gives Advice
to All Who Want to be Cured
of Kidney Troubles.
Haldimand, Gaspe Co., Quebec,
April 12 (Special): —"I have just
opened the third box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and find they are
doing me wonders of good for the
Kidneys and Rheumatism," so says
Mr. Peter F. Patterson, a, well-
known resident of this place ..
"My troubles came through a
cold and strain," Mr. Patterson
continues, "and I suffered for
many years. I had headache, back-
ache and rheumatism. My sleep
was broken and unrefreshing. I
bad a bitter taste in my mouth in
the morning and I perspired freely
with the slightest exertion. I was
often dizzy; I was; troubled with
heart fiutterings; I was nervous
and my skin itched and burned at
night,
"After using Dodd's Kidney
Pills I recommend them to every-
one who wants to be cured,"
Everyone of Mr. Patterson's
ailments was a symptom of Kidney
disease, That's why he found such
prompt relief in Dodd's Kidney
Pills. They only cure Kidney dis-
ease.
Nurse Crops.
Observing farmers have seen that
either clover or alfalfa do consid-
erably better when sown with bar-
ley as a nurse crop than with oats.
King says, in his book on soils,
"that oats exhaust the soil mois-
ture a great deal faster and more
than barley. Probably this is the
reason why, especiallyin rather dry
seasons, the new seeding does bet-
ter with the barley," But a great
many farmers greatly injure the
growth of their young clooer, as
well as alfalfa, by seeding too much
grain as a nurse crop. It is a spe-
cies of greediness that, as Shakes-
peare says, "o'er leaps itself." It
should require but a moment's
thought to see that the coming clo-
ver or alfalfa is worth double in
value what the grain crop is, Why,
then-, should the farmer endanger
his hay crop next year'? We have
seen hundreds of young clover and
alfalfa, crops practically spoiled in
this way. It takes 500 pounds of
water to mature one pound of the
grain of oats. Reckon it up and see
what that meansto the young clo-
ver or alfalfa in a crop, say, of 50
bushels of oats to the acre.
A Wireless News -Letter.
For many months in the year the
four or five thousand inhabitants of
the isolated Magdalen Islands re-
ceive no mail or newspapers, for as
the islands lie in the widest part of
the Gulf of St. Lawrence, about
fifty miles northeast of Prince Ed-
ward Island, it is difficult, if not
impossible, -to run boats to them
during the winter, The Canadian
Government has consequently ar-
ranged to send weekly to the
clergymen of the islands, a wireless
despatch of eight hundred words
that gives the latest news of the
war and other 'events. These des-
patches the ministers read aloud to
the islanders at church every Sun-
day.
Cure Children's Colds
By External Treatment
Mothers Will Find Nothing so Speed-
ily and Reliable as Old -
Time "Nerviline."
It's really a shame to upset a young
child's stomach by internal dosing,
when . external treatment will so
promptly break up a cold.
When your boy comes in after play
with his feet soaking wet, his throat
hoarse and sore, his little chest tight
and congested, just apply Nerviline.
give him a vigorous rubbing over his
throat, and put lots of Nervilins on
his chest and rub it right in. To make
Nerviline penetrate : more quickly
cover his chest and throat with a hot
flannel • bandage. This . treatment
WON'T fail. ' Your boy will be feeling
better in half an hour, and you will
have the satisfaction of knowing you
have warded off perhaps a cold, or
grippe, or illness that might have laid
him up. '
Nervihrie • is 'mighty good . for pre-
venting colds and for breaking up a
bad one, too. For general family use
it cures all sorts of external aches
and pains—you simply can't beat it.
Try it for earache, toothache, neural-
gia, sciatica, lame . back, rheumatism,
-or lumbago. .Wherever there is con-
gestion. inflammation : or pain in the
joints or muscles, Nerviline will cure
mighty quick. The large 50c, family
size bottle is so economical, so ;,use-
ful, it should be in every home. There
is also a small 25c. size. Dealers any-
where sell Nerviline. ,

Lard Salisbury.
The late Lord Salisbury>, sa
Count Paul Vassili in his book,
"Behind the Veil at the Russian
Court," shared with the rest of his
family the defect of being rather
careless in his dress and general
appearance. Lord Odo Russell,
who long represented England at
Berlin, told Count Vassili this
amusing little anecdote in il'lustra-
nlauuree..
Nitrates and ammonia' salts do
at give their best results when in
contact with fermentable organic
Say
tion of that characteristic.
"One evening," says the count,
"Lord Odo and I were chatting
about Lord Salisbury's attitude to-
ward his personal appearance, --not
ill-natnredly, for it is doubtful
which of us had the greater admire,
tion for the remarkable statesman
in question, -'--'and Lord Ode laugh-
ingly mentioned to me his surprise
when one day, after the dinner bell
of the embassy had been rung, he
found Lord Salisbury, who was liv-
ing there, still busy at work in his
study,
e" 'He rushed out,' said the am-
bassador, 'and before I had time to
put aside the papers on the table,.
literally in three minutes, -was back
again ready for dinner. Now in.
that time he could not even have
washed his bands, yet there he was
in evening clothes! I could not
help asking him how he managed
to dress so quickly, "Oh, my dear
Russell," he said, "anyone can
change his coat at once, and I had
black trousers on already."' "

A Close Shot.
It was during a golf game in
Scotland. The fust player who
drove off was very bow-legged. The
second player, unmindful that his
opponent was directly in front of
him, struck the 'ball and it whizzed
between his opponent's legs.
"Hoot, anon," said the bow-leg-
ged one in anger, "that's nate

"A weal," said his opponent
complacently, "ef 'tis nae golf 'tis

1 matter, The possibility of loss is
greatly diminished by using well,
rotted manure, andmay be still
farther prevented by applying the
nitrate as a top dressing on the
growing crop at the 'time the crop
needs it. Salts of potassium and
sodium, superphosphate and sul-
phate of ammonium, should not be
sprinkled on, the manure hi the fur-

before the manure. is applied, or
sown broadcast after the manure
is plowed, in. and before harrowing.

A Two -Ounce Egg,
Pullets, of any breed should lay
a 2 oz. egg at one year old, With
very few exceptions all non -sitters
lay white -shelled eggs, and all sit -
tem dark ones. The coloring of
wild birds' eggs as to some extent
protective. Therefore, one would
think that domestication should
tend to ridding the shells of color.
But we do not find it so, as the
Asiatic heavy breeds which lay the
darkest eggs have been under do-
mestication in China for some
thousands of years. Therefore, we
can no more account for a Leghorn
laying a white egg and a Brahma
a brown one than we can for the
wood pigeon laying awhite egg and
a magpie, also a tree builder, lay-
ing aspotted one. When .a, boy,
