And when the husband can't eat ardinary food without causing trouble, the food question becomes doubly an- noying. An Tilinois woman writes: “My husband’s health was poor, he had no appetite for anything I could get_for him, it seemed. “He suffereq severely with stomach trouble, was handly able to work, wes taking medicine continually, ana as soon as he would feel better would go to work again only to give up in a few weeks. “One day, seeing_an advertisement about Grape-Nuts, I got some and he tried it for breakfast the next morning. “We all thought it was pretty good although we had mo idea of using it regularly. But when my husband came home at night he asked for Grape- Nuts. “It was the same next day and I had to get it right along, because when we would get to the table the question, ‘Have you any Grape-Nuts' was a. reg- ular thing. So I began to buy it by the dozen pkgs. “My husband’s health began to im- prove right along. I sometimes felt offended when I'd make something I thought he would like for a change; and still hear the same old question, “Have you any Grape-Nuts? “He got so well that for the last two years he has hardly lost a day from his work, and we are still using Grape- uts.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

NEW DENIED THAT LIEUTENANT TOOK MONEY. But No Trace of Weagenan Has Been Reported. © trace whatever has been obtained of Lieutenant Weggenan, U. S, A., who disappeared from Fort Wright, where he had charge of the post store, and it is not known that the war department is making any effort to locate him. The statement that Weggenan took several thousand dollars that belonged to the post when he went away is denied, now that the first stories of the defalcation have been investizated. It is said that Weggenan took only sufficient funds to carry him and that he left ten times as much as he took that he might have gotten away with. What led Weggenan to leave is a mystery, although there are those at tke fort who claim they could make a g00d guess as to why he left. They refuse to talk, but they intimate that he had affairs that troubled him and which he seemed to be unable to con- trol. He is said to have been a like- able fellow who was respected and even admired for his many excellent qualities. Weggenan is believed _to have gone from the United States, but where he went to no one seems to be arle to state. It is thought he has gone across the Atlantic and that he has enlisted in one of the armies now in conflict in Europe.—New London Globe. Scholarship at Harvard. On the ‘basis of the recent mid-year examinations at Harvard the commit- tee on scholarships and other aids to undergraduates s assigned money from the Price Greenleaf aid fund to more than sixty undergraduates, most of whom are in the freshman class.

Among those to receive a scholarship is F. L. Car- rier, '13, Bacon Academy, Colchester, Conn. Lew Orth Members Accept Moose In- vitation.

FORCE To Show Their Appreciation of the Connecticut Congressman’s Wark. The Norwich post office employes have learned with much interest of a testimonial reception which will be given to ex-Congressman Thomas L. Reilly on Sunday, April 4, in the 71st regiment armory, New York city, by the National Association of Letter Carriers, Railway Mail association and the United National Association of Post Office Clerks in grateful appre- ciation of his services as a member of congress to benefit the working conditions of the post office employes of Uncle Sam. The emploves of the pe have been the beneficiarie: forts and the improvement of working conditions has been lar. brought about through his efforts. 1 employes of the country, as repre sented by the United National Asso- ciation of Post Office Clerks have a deep feeling of affection for _their champion and will present Mr. Reilly a suitable token of their appreciation at_this_reception. Mr. Reilly was ‘nstrumental In the passage of ‘he Eight-in-Ten-Hour law. and the folliw!1g Reilly compensation bill by which in event of injury Sus- tained in the course of employment, post office employ.s shall receive full pay for one year and then half pay for another year, if the disability cor tinues that long. In event of death due to injury sustained in the ser- vice those dependent upon him shall receive the lump sum of $2,000; Mr. Rellly’s_amendment to a supervisory reclassification scheme provides for the employment of special clerks at $1,300 or more per annum ang keeps open the gateway o promotion.

There are a few from the local office Wwho are anticipating attending the re- ception, and the w-)le force has sig- nified its approval of the movement and are helping the cause along. BIRD NIGHT PROGRAMME GIVEN BEFORE GRANGE. Papers and Talks Made Entertaining Evening—Invitation to Pomona. Wednesday was Bird night during the lecturer's hour in Norwich grange, No. 172, Patrons of Husbandry, at its meeting in Pythian hall, and the pro- gramme that followed the business meeting contained interesting .refer- ences to birds and bird life. It began with a well written paper by Miss Helen B. Moore upon The Song Birds of America. This was fol- lowed by an extemporaneous talk by Jacob Gallup upon the subject Birds That Help the Farmer. He showed that he did not entirely subscribe to the opinion that if it were not for the birds the insect pests would make the farmers’ crops a failure. After Mr. Gallup, Miss Effie Messin- ger read a paper upon Domestic Fowls that had been written by Mrs. Charles Lillibridge. This was followed by a talk by Woodbury O. Rogers upon the subject of The Great American Hen. Mr. Rogers touched upon the subject in ‘a number of interesting and in- structive ways and incidentally showed that there was a great difference in the profits in the hen business that can be figured out at $6.30 per hen with a lead pencil but often vary widely from that, and it would be a false hope to embark in the business with the expectation that 1,000 hens would mean a thousand times the profit shown on one hen by the pencil method. In the business part of the meeting, at which Worthy Master E. C. Jewett was in the chair, three names were balloted upon and two new applica- tions were received. H. R. Branche reported progress from the committee that was appointed at the last meeting to take up consideration of the matter of a grange home. The grange votéd to invite the New London County Pomona to meet here on the third Thursday in April and to 1its literary value, but it was at least “ BERRNE —IJ'L GERMAN-AMERICANS PLAN BIG TIME ON CENTENARY OF BISMARCK’'S BIRTH .Throughout the country German- American societies are planning to cel- ebrate the centenary of the birth of Bismarck, the great German states- map, e =ms horn April 1, 1815 e \ He dled on July 80, 1898.
