AN/EMIA CAN BE CURED
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Make New
Blood una Strike Straight at the
Root of Disease.
Antrtnia is just the doctor's nnmo for
bloodlcssness. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
actually makts new blood. They cure
auaemia just as food cures hunger. They
cured Mrs. Thos. J. McGann, of 17
Lincoln Place, Plainfleld, N.J., and they .
can do as much for any other pale, weak,
ailing, bloodless person.
" 111 the spring of 190H I did my usual
house cleaning," says Mrs. McGanu,
"and soon afterward I began to liave the
most terrible headaches. My heart
would beat so irregularly that it was
painful and there came a morning when
I could not get up. My doctor said I had
anaemia and he was surprised that I had
continued to live in t lie condition I was
in. I was confined to my bed for nearly
two months, the doctor coining every
day for the first few weeks, but I did
not improve to amount to anything. i
"Altogether I was sick for nearly two
years. I was as weak as a rag, had
headaches, irregular heart beats, loss of
appetite, cramps in the limbs ami was
unable to get a good night's sleep. My
legs and feet were so swollen that I I
feared they would burst.
" One day, while I was wonderinghow j
long I could live, feeling as I did, Ire- :
ceived a booklet telling about Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. I
read it and told my husband to get me
some of the pills. Before the first box
was gone I fell a change for the better.
I have taken about twelve boxes and al- |
though I was as near the grave as I could !
be, I now feel as if I had a new lease of j
life. I have no more headache, the heart !
beats regularly, my cheeks are pink and '
I feel ten years younger. I feel that I
have been cured very cheaply and I have |
recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
to lots of my friends."

There's a boy up in Hoosick Falls, j

| his mother explains:
"My 11-year-old boy is large, well j
| developed and active, and has been !
made so by his fondness for Grape- j
Nuts food. At five years he was a very ;
nervous child and was subject to fre
quent attacks of indigestion which
; used to rob hiio of his strength and
were very troublesome to deal with.
He never seemed to care for anything
| for his breakfast until I tried Grape- i
Nuts, and I have never had to change |
from that. He makes his entire break- 1
j fast of Grape- Nuts food. Ir is always
t relished by him and he says that it j
satisfies him better than the ordinary!
kind of a meal.
"Better than all, he is no longer j
j troubled with indigestion or nervous-1
j ness, and has got to be a splendidly I
developed fellow since he began to use '
: Grape-Nuts food." Name given by I

t WASHINGTON
I AS A X
\ CONSTRUCTIVE ♦
\ PATRIOT ♦
By KATHARINE POPE *
♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦<>♦♦♦♦♦♦♦
Some men support the interests of
their country by defending the land
they love. Washington was both de
fender and builder, soldier and states
man. Let us dwell on his work as
builder.
Naturally conservative, Washington
was not in favor of courting trouble
with old England; but as acts of Eng
lish aggression followed one after an
other, realized submission had ceased
to be a virtue. When the first conti
nental congress met, in 1774, he ac
cepted election as delegate, and in
company with Patrick Henry set out
for Philadelphia. "That congress sat
in Carpenter's hall with closed doors,
but the great papers that it prepared
and issued form a proud part of
American history. Those were the pa
pers and that the congress of which
Chatham in the house of lords, in his
memorable speech on the removal of.
troops from Boston, January 20, 1775, J
said: 'When your lordships look at (
the papers transmitted to us from j
America, when you consider their de- 1
cency, firmness and wisdom, you can-:
not but respect their cause, and wish ;
to make it your own. For myself I
must declare and avow that in all my
reading and observation —and it. has
been my favorite study—l have read
Thucydides, and have studied and ad
mired the master statesmen of the
world —that for solidity of reasoning,
force of sagacity, and wisdom of con
clusion, under such a complication of
difficult circumstances, no nation or.
body of men can stand in preference
to the general congress at Philadel
phia.' The precise part taken by
Washington within the closed doors
of Carpenter's hall is nowhere record
ed, but the testimony of one of its
most distinguished members cannot be
forgotten. When Patrick Henry re
turned home from the meeting and '
was asked whom he considered the!
greatest man at that congress, he re-;
plied: 'lf you speak of eloquence,!
Mr. Rutledge, of South Carolina, is by j
far the greatest orator; but if you
speak of solid information and sound
judgment, Col. Washington is unques
tionably the greatest man on that
floor.*"
Washington was also delegate to
the second continental congress, the j
one which unanimously elected him j
commander in chief of the continental j
forces, and the one where he declared ,
the position a "trust too great for my j
capacity." To us it is pleasing to
compare the modesty that character- j
ized Washington throughout his life
with the egotism looked upon as!
forgivable, essential part of a force-!
fill personality of the present (lay. j
The two years lapsing between Corn-!
wallis' surrender awl the treaty of
peace was a period marked by more \
distinguished patriotism on the part
of Washington and by his political
wisdom and foresight. The country
was in a most troubled state, officers
and men suspicious that the army was
bo be disbanded without congress
making provision for meeting the just j
claims of the troops. Both officers I
and men began to distrust a repub-1
lican form of government. Matters
went so far, an army colonel was
sent to communicate with Washing-,
ton and make suggestion that he as '
sumo the title of king and givo the
country a firm government. The agent
met with a severe rebuke; this Wash
ington's answer to the suggestion: i
"I am at a loss to conceive what part !
of my conduct could have given en
couragement to an address which to
Ue seems big with the greatest mis-
chief that can befall my country. If
I am not deceived in the knowledge
of myself, you could not have found
a person to whom your schemes are
more disagreeable. . . . Let me conjure
you, then, if you have any regard for
your country, concern for youself or
posterity, or respect for me, to banish
these thoughts from your mind, and
never communicate, from yourself or
anyone else, a sentiment of like na
ture."
The discontent and apprehension
continued, a meeting of officers was ar
ranged and there were issued the
"Newburg Addresses," intended to
arouse the army to resentment. Wash
ington, uninvited, attended the meet
ing and made an address, in which he
declared the claims of the army would
not be disregarded, and begged hi 9
hearers "to express their utmost hor
ror and detestation of the man who
wishes, under any specious pretenses,
to overturn the liberties of our coun
try, and who wickedly attempts to
open the floodgates of civil discord
and deluge our rising empire in
blood." The result of his appeal, reso
lutions were unanimously adopted con
curring in the policy he proposed.
Shortly before the dissolution of the
army Washington addressed a letter
to the governors of the states, urging
upon them realization of the four
things essential to the existence and
well-being of the United States:
"First, an indissoluble union of the
states under one federal head; second,
a sacred regard to public Justice;
third, the adoption of a proper peace
establishment; and, fourth, the preva
lence of that pacific and friendly dis
position among the people of the Unit
ed States which will induce them to
forget their local prejudices and poli
cies, to make those mutual conces
sions which are requisite to the gen- j
eral prosperity, and, in some in
stances, to sacrifice their Individual
advantages to the interest of the com- j
munity." These he counted "the pil
lars on which the glorious fabric of
our independency and national char- ,
acter must rest."
In such perfect sympathy with th«
idea of conferring greater powers on :
the federal government, be consented
to head the delegates from Virginia
to the Philadelphia convention called
May 14, 1787, and was unanimously
elected president of this convention.
It closed September 17, on which date j
Washington, as one of his biographers
phrases it, had the supreme satisfac- j
tion of addressing a letter to'congress
announcing the adoption of the con
stitution of the United States. To
quote directly from the letter: "In
all our deliberations on the subject, j
we kept steadily in our view that ■
which appears to us the greatest inter- j
est of every true American —the con- ;
sclidation of our union—in which is j
involved our prosperity, our safety, 1
and perhaps our nation?! existence."
On the Gth of April. 1789, Washing
ton was declared president of the Unit- j
ed States. On the 30th of April, he \
was inaugurated. His wisdom and
firmness carried the ship of state safe
ly through two administrations, j
though the waters oft were troubled, j
At the close of the first term he de- '
sired to withdraw to private life, but
was urged that duty to the country
demanded he continue in public serv
ice. Jefferson wrote: "The confidence
of the whole country is centered in
you. North and south will hang to
gether if they have you to hang on."
Hamilton used this persuasion: "It
is dear that if you continue in office
nothing materially mischievous is to j
he apprehended. If you quit much is to
bo dreaded. ... I trust, and I
pray God, that you will determine to
make a further sacrifice of your tran
quillity and happiness to the public
good."
Washington the soldier, to whom
proud Cornwallis made surrender, au
peala to the popular fancy. But the
people should remember the hero waa
also 'first in pi-aco"—« tuition buildup

of person. Both the singular and plural
can be used, as for instance "grape" and
"grapes."
The letters in "Y-I-O-Grape-Nuts"
may be repeated in the same word.
Geographical names authorized by
Webster will be counted.
Arrange the words in alphabetical
classes, all those beginning with A to
gether and those beginning with IS to
come under E, etc.
When you are writing down the
words leave some spaces, in the A, B, and
other columns to fill in later as new
words come to you, for they will spring
into mind every evening.
It is almost certain that some contest
ants will, tie with others. In such cases
a prize identical in value and character
with that offered in that class shall be
awarded to each. Each one will be re
quested to send with the list of words a
plainly written letter describing the ad
vantages of Grape-Nuts, but the contest
ant is not required to purchase a pkg.
These letters are not to contain poetry,or
fancy flourishes, but simple, truthful
statements of fact. For illustration: A
person may have experienced.some incip
ient or chronic ails traceable to unwise
selection of food that failed to give the
body and brain the energy, health and
power desired. Seeking better condit ions
a change in food is made and Grape-Nuts
and cream used in place of the former
diet. Suppose one quits the meat, fried
potatoes, starchy, sticky messes of half
cooked oats or wheat and c uts out the
coffee. Try, say, for breakfast, a bit of
fruit, a dish of Grape-Nuts and c ream,
two soft-boiled eggs, a slice of hard toast
and a cup of I'ostum l'\>©d CyHee. borne j
