A Goddess That Would Not be Won. The Creator, in making so many kinds of people naturally made some that Lavs immense ambition and desire for worlv. physical and mental. Authors, writers and b-ain-workers are generally bard working people, frequently they exhaust vitality so fast that they cannot rebuild. Food experts have perfected a food called Grape-Nuts for brain workers.

The makers selected from field grains the proper elements which naturally enter la-to tehuilding brain and nerve centers. A famous woman of West Haven. Conn whom perhaps you will recognise because of the location, but who requests that her name be kept from print In this connection, writes: "Perhaps you would like te know of my experience with the restoring power of your wonderful Qrape-NutS Food. I have Ieen a tireless worker. Lif a was full of possibilities.

AmHtioi died and hope went with it. Religion became odious. Tbe world grew dark.

I hear "the breese call of incenae breath ing my muscles are like Iron, and my back of steeL I am as alert as tfa-5 siarrow with whom I converse every morning as he eeeka his matitutinai worm.

Think of the places where sports of all kinds may be enjoyed, including the pop-i ular games of golf, polo and tennis. Leave the mountains and turn to the: beautiful lakes and streams, or to the) vast, grand ocean which forms the eastern boundary of Xew England, here boating, hi-hing, yachting and bathing are partici pated in more than in any other part of the world.

It Is hardly to be expected that the heaUd term will be over as soon as September 2 and as requests are always received from parents asking for a delay in the opening of the schools when the first Monday comes as early in the season, the school commissioners have anticipated such a desire by making the opening date the second Monday of September. Miss Susie A. Beach has been appointed kindergarten teacher for the school at Lakeside Pnrk. An unusually interesting meeting of the High School Alumni association is expected Friday evening.

The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, Syrup of Fiqs, manufactured by the California Fio Sybcp illustrate the value of obtaining-the liquid laxative principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting1 them in the form most refreshing1 to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxative, cleansing the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation permanently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and substance, and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating' them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the Caufobsia Fia 8tcp Co. only.

In order to get its beneficial effects and to avoid imitations, please remember the full name el the Company printed on the front of every package. CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN VBAJTOIBCO. CAX loots vxxxb. nr.
