Try the change. You will feel "fit as a lord" in a week's time by breakfasting on Grape-Nuts and cream, a little fruit, a soft boiled egg, some nice, crisp toast, and a cup of well-made Postum. If you ever try this experiment, you will always bless the day you woke up. There's a reason why Grape-Nuts food furnishes power to body and brain. It is made of selected parts of the field grains that furnish phosphate of potash in a natural state that can be assimilated by the human body. This joins with the albumen of food and forms the gray matter of the brain and nerve centres. Feed skilfully and you can "do things." The greatest brain workers eat Grape-Nuts. Ask one or two, they'll tell you. You meat eaters who are ailing in any sort of way should take the hint. A prominent authority says: "There is no doubt of the fact that meat-eating is not essential to human life, and that men can be well nourished without resorting to a flesh diet. "I think the statement may be accepted without question that, as a rule, we eat too much, not only of meat, but of all forms of food. The question of limiting the diet is based primarily not on the principle of economy, but on the requirements of hygiene. "At the early breakfasts which Americans are wont to indulge in, that is, a hearty meal before going to their daily work, the omission of meat is to be earnestly advised. "It is well known that men who are nourished very extensively on certain cereals are capable of the hardest and most enduring labor." You can depend on the energy from Grape-Nuts longer than from any meal of meat. "There's a Reason" for Made at pure food factories of the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich.

RESEARCH DEVELOPS FACT THAT YOUNGSTERS FIND MOST SPORT IN CONTESTS THAT ARE PROHIBITED.
New York, Feb. 2. Of all the games played on the streets of this city, craps ranks first and foremost, claiming not only more adherents than any other one sport among the children. but actually having more than tag. chalk games, ball, and "old cat" all put together. This statement is not the imagination of some anti-gambling crusader, but from facts and figures found by the Neighborhood Workers association as the result of an investigation covering nearly 10.000 children in all parts of the city. This association includes not only practically all settlement houses, non-sectarian or denominational, but many of the other institutions which meet the youngsters at first hand. The figures, however, were not gathered by the adult members of the association, but by children themselves, only too proud and glad to be called upon to do it. Was Simply Planned. The experiment was very simply planned. A certain number of children were supplied by each member of the association, and routes were laid out covering many sections of the city, east and west sides included, both uptown and downtown. Each child was furnished with a record book and pencil and sent along a certain route for the space of one hour. During thta time the boy or girl was j to set down an tne ditierent kinds or games met with along the route, and the number of children playing in each group. Naturally, the analyzing and summarizing was done by the grown-ups. and here is the result: Out of a total of 9,666 youngsters recorded, 1,951 were playing craps, 1.851 were roller skating, 1,67 were playing with bonRheumatism Comes From Bad Kidneys Once Your Kidneys Work Properly, Rheumatism, Kidney Disease and Bladder Trouble Disappear. How To Cure Yourself. It is no longer necessary to spend months and months undergoing a complicated treatment for rheumatism, kidney or bladder trouble, or spend a good many dollars in doctors' bills. A new treatment can now be obtained which seems to act more like a marvel than a medicine. This treatment has produced such satisfactory results in a short time that it is now guaranteed from first to last. There shauld be no more doubt about the rapid cure of rheumatism, no fears of the fatal termination of treacherous kidney disease or dropsy. Rheumatism means nothing more nor less than that your kidneys do not work properly. Your blood passes through the kidneys hundreds of times a day to be filtered and purified. When the kidneys are weak, the poisons are not taken out of the blood as they should be. This leads to various diseases, such as rheumatism, terrible Bright's disease, diabetes, dropsy and bladder trouble. The new guaranteed treatment is Dr. Derby's Kidney Pills. One day's use of them will prove their remarkable effect. M. T. Ridenour of Lima, Ohio. sa.ys: "When I feel bad in my back. I just take a couple of Derby's Kidney Pills and get immediate re lief." If you have rheumatism anywhere, back pains, cloudy, foul urine, pains in the bladder, Bright's disease or diabetes, put your whole confidence in Dr. Derby's Kidney Pills, and you will not be disappointed. Dr. Derby's Kidney Pills are sold at all drug stores CO pills 10 days' treatment 23 cents, or we will send them direct from the laboratory of Derby Medicine Co., Dept. 12.

There Will be Changes. This presents a fair account of the winter games of the 1,000.000-odd children in the city, for all the record were made dm Ins November and December. Spring and Summer will change the ranging somewhat for it J is recooiized that bonfires and fire cans belong to cold weather and are displaced by tons in the spring, but craps and roller skating are a joy perennial to the thousands who use the streets as their chief playground. Not the least interesting point of the list is the fact that more than 40 percent of the players were indulging in illegal sport, and were consequently liable to arrest. Craps, of course, comes under the ban of the law simply as a gambling game, for it does not interfere with traffic, isn't noisy, requires but little space, and doesn't do any damage to property, unless the transfer of pennies from one pocket to another may be counted as such. Bonfires and fire cans are forbidden, lest holes be burned in the city's asphalt, while shinny, "old cat." and ball are prohibited. lest near-by windows be smashed or citizens struck. Put apparently as long as boys are boys fire cans and ball will flourish, and as long as craps remains both convenient and exciting it is likely to remain king of street games, city or dinances to the contrary notwithstand-. ing. j Howard Bradstreet of the Parks and ; Playgrounds association figures that j more money changes hands in the Sunday crap games than finds its way into the weekly collection plates of all the Sunday schools of the city put together.
