Is Proposal
Sooner or later some housewife will
tell jou that she cannot give her family
oats, corn or rice because these cereals
do not ngreo with them. They must
have wheat.
You may be sure ou are right If you
brand such people as food cranks or
slackers
Oats, corn nnd rice nre as wholesome
In every way as wheat, and the com
plaint, "They don't ngreo with me, I
must have wheat," Is usually a camou
flage of our own selfishness What we
really mean to tny Is, "I like wheat
better. It makes lighter bread than
the other cereals and It keeps moist and
sweet longer."
Now. no one will deny that alt these
are attributes of wheat bread. It la
because of them. In fact, that we want
to tend our whtat abroad, so that our
soldiers and the Allies may have the
bread they need. Surely we who are
left behind the battlefield should be glad
to do anything we tan to relieve the
buttlens tf those suiftring hardships
we cannot Imagine.
If wo grftnt trat saving food Is a
military measure, we should consider
ourselves under military orders, and
there should be no half-way means.
It should bo our first duty to carry

It la Impossible to get any 100 per
cent pure alcohol that has been manu-
raciurea since t.eptemDer B. 1317. when
the new distiller regulations to save
grain went Into effect. The alcohol
which is manufactured for medicinal
purposes Is. however, not diluted with
wood alcohol, but with formaldehyde.

still sold In tome of the drug stores, but
It costs twice -as much to buy as the
other. You are right, wood alcohol is
verv Injurious to the eyes.
The stronger the alcohol the more
toning It is to the system. Get tha
highest strength. I am sending you the
