Gradually my eyesight began to fall and my memory grew poor. A general nervousness set in. I used all the will power I could command to help myself, but 1 was forced to give up a good position and seek the advice of the family doctor. He eald neurasthenia and sent me to a great merve specialist. 8o, for four months 1 was massaged and dosed with medicine, but all to no benefit; then I went to New York and consuited Dr. He sent me to another great specialist, and he, Sanitarium, in turn, sent me to where I stayed for a long time. It tbe same old story. with medicine and mai Fioally I left there amd went to another speclalist, who told me I would only live & few months. This rather frightened me and I placed myself under Dr. He sald the stomach at fault and probably I bad not been given the right kind of food. “He put me on a certain line of treat. ment and insisted that I use three or four teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts each meal. I was under his care for several mouths. I steadily improved until now I am fully re- ored to both mental and bodlly vigor. “He explained to me that Grape-Nuts contains a goodly portion of potash, a nerve and brain food, and that the food be- ing partially digested, the system could make use of it easlly At any rate, I got well, and both the doctor and myself know that Grape-Nuts made it possible, “I sincerely belleve that practically all of Our nervous troubles are caused by imper- fect mourishment. It was fortunate for me that I could get such & food as Grape- Nuts.

Lord Palmerston sals “There is no question of merit about the Garter,” a re- mark which apparently will also apply to the new order of imperial princes. There s talk of the king creating twelve new peers at his coronation, including Sir Ernest Cassel, who rendered valuable serve ices by consolidating the king's debts as the prince of Wales and arranging easy terms for their payment. Lipton is not, apparently, to have a peerage, but must be content with a baronetcy. Among the prospective new nobles mentioned is Colonel Cornwallis West, the father-in-law of the duke of Westminster and of Lady Randolph Churchill. This title, in the ordinary course of events, would fall to young Corn- wallis West, so Lady Randolph Churchill, after all, may become a peeress. Lord Ed- mund Talbot, the duke of Norfolk's brother, is also mentioned for a peerage. The duke of Norfolk's only child, the earl of Arundel, who has been paralyzed from birth, stands in the way of Lord Edmund’'s succession to the dukedom, but his son ultimately will have it. Curtail Flowers at Opera. There will be an innovation in the deco- ration of the opera house at the gala coro- nation performance. The singers petitioned the management again: house, as on former occasions, with flowers, for the perfume affected their voices, which it is sald are particularly susceptible in this way. The management being at the mercy of the prima donna, who is as neces- sary to the performance as royalties them- selves, promised to use artificlal flowers, but this was objected to by the king. As & compromise only the grand tier will be decorated with real flowers, while the more remote parts of the house will be festooned with artificlal ones. More than one member of the royal family objects to the perfume of flowers. When Princess Victoria enters the royal box she always instantly removes the bouquet placed opposite her chair. Many well-known Americans continue to pass through London on the way to the con- tinent, but only an inconsiderable propor- tion speak of returning for the coronation. President Roosevelt's sister, Mrs. Douglas Robloson, has takem rooms on Charges street. Foxhall Keene has rented a house on Ald- ford street, Park Lane. Mrs. Lewis Chand- ler Is staying at the Cariton. The Bradley Martins have come up from Scotland to their house in Chesterfield gardens, and they Intend to give a grand reception and con- cert on July 4. Mrs. C. George Crocker will remove from Clarides soon to a house in Mayfair. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Emmet are here on their way to New York. Among the most notable of the recent arrivals is Mrs. Johnson of Washington, who has al- ‘ways cherished the friendships she made in London, when her uncle, ~President Bu- chanan, was minister to England. When- ever she came here she was specially re- celved by Queen Victoria and will be among the forelgn guests specially invited to th coronation.
