"Food Is Its Own
Best Digestant"
"All too frequently, we prescribe medicines for pa
tients who suffer from indigestion, when, as a mat
ter of fact, what they actually need is a simple
course of dietetic training, and the proper food
stuffs to train on.
"This is the famous "reason" for the popularity of
Grape-Nuts as an article of diet, viz., that it fur
nishes this very course of training for the digestion.
It not only furnishes the natural diastase for the
process of digestion, but it favors a return to normal
digestive function because the firm, crisp kernels
compel thorough mastication.
"One ought not to leave out of consideration the
psychic element the delicious treat to the palate
afforded bv a dish of Grape-Nuts and cream."

Decisive Moment For
Rumania Has Arrived;
Army in Fine Condition
Paris, Aug. 22. All the morning
newspapers comment at length on the
possibility of Rumania joining in the
war. The meetings that are in pro
gress in Bucharest are taken to mean
.nat ail the various developments in
ho situation are being seriously con
sidered and the general tone of" the
comment that the decisive moment for
Rumania action has arrived.

in Macedonia are interpreted in some
quarters as having been undertaken
solely with a vie-.v to influencing the
decision of Rumania. On all sides it is
agreed that a new phase in Balkan
history is opening and the discussion
by the press of the various diplomatic
nnases of the Rumanian situation is
followed by an examination of the
strength of the Rumanian army.
The statement is made on good au
thority that the number of Rumanian
troops that can be mobilized exceeds
SOO,OOO and that the army is in the
best of condition after long prepara
tion.

The military movement of the entente
allies are hindered by the flight of the
civil population before the Bulgarian
advance.
Kastoria Is twenty-five miles south
of Monastir on the extreme left of the
entente front In Macedonia. It lies
about thirty miles southwest of Fiorina
and its occupation Indicates that the
Bulgarians are pressing southward

Go on Screen All Over
Country
Bert G. Faulhaber and Harry H.
Wright, of the Falrite Film Company.
New York City, arrived here on Satur
day and to-day are completing ar
rangements to produce a motion pic
ture film of the city of Harrisburg.
The portrayal of the city will In
clude all the historical features, places
of local interest, civic activity, the
various State, city and public buildings
and various departments; Harrlsburg's i
park system and the leading Industrial
concerns and retail stores. The plan
Is to plcturize Harrisburg from a civic,
and industrial standpoint.
There will be plenty of human inter
est blended in the picture which will
be from three to four reels in length
and all subjects will be presented in
such a manner as to form a very In
teresting and educational fllm and at
the same time to afford a means of
considerable publicity to the city.
Harrisburg is one of tne twelve leading ,
cities selected in Pennsylvania ana
when the picture is completed it will
be shown at one of the leading theater*
here for one week as well as through
out the county and will then be sent
over a special circuit of over 1200
institutions comprising Y. M. C. A.'s,
churches, schools, colleges and other
educational institutions throughout the
country. After all the twelve cities are
completed they will be grouped to
gether and revised as one composite pic
ture representative of the State of
Pennsylvania and circulated over the
motion picture circuit throughout the
United States, as part of a series of
•'Home Travels." The Falrite Film
Company have filmed a number of the
larger cities and In the Pennsylvania
group. Lancaster and Willlamsport
were recently completed and are now
being exhibited. A film of this kind
embracing all the subjects enumerated
above and showing besides all the prin
cipal advantages offered by this city
from an industrial and residential
point of view can be utilized by the city
authorities advantageously before con
vention committees In other cities, also
industrial site commissions and at fairs
and many other public gatherings.
It will be about ten days before the
necessary arrangements can be com
pleted and all subjects properly tabu
lated and before the actual work of
photography will be started and Har
risburg has so much of State and local
interest that the picture should be of
unusual interest not dnly at home but
to the country at large.
A private exhibition has been ar
ranged by the Falrite Company to take
place on Wednesday, August 23. at 10
a. m.. sharp, at the Victoria Theater,
for the benefit of the officers and all
members of the Harrisburg Chamber

demonstrating to those interested, that
a purely civic motion picture can be
assembled so as to form an interesting
subject.
Take Nobody's Say-so—Your Nose Knows
It's your taste that has to be pleased. What suits
another man may not suit you. Why take other
people's say-so ? Why try first one tobacco and then
another when your nose knows —in a minute —Just
which is your tobacco.
Make this test —it never fails. Rub a little
TUXEDO between your palms, long enough for the
friction to bring out the full aroma, and smell it. Put
other tobaccos to the same test. Only one —TUXEDO
—will come through it satisfactorily—convincingly.
Only one TUXEDO has the volume and
sweetness of fragrance that prove supreme flavor,
mildness and satisfaction.
Make the test. Then smoke TUXEDO—aII you
want—all day long. You won't be disappointed.
There won't be any come-back—your nose knows.

tended by the leaders of all four

attached to it and the leaders said it
was Just to keep the men together.
A statement in reply to the arguments
of the railroad executives on the ques
tion of arbitration was being prepared
by the leaders and probably will be
issued for publication to-morrow. The
brotherhood officials described the sit

executives made a formal announce

been reached. The following were an

In Touch With Directors
While the subcommittee was work

their boards of directors. It was un

for President Wilson to-night or to

circles it was said there was hope for
a settlement. The exact nature of the
nroposal to be submitted to President
Wilson was not revealed, but from the
fact that the executives were In com
munication with their boards Of di

it concerned the concession of the

One suggestion understood to be
under consideration was the submis

provision for making permanent the

NEW YORK. N. Y —ln a recent dis
course Dr. E. Sauer, a. well known Spe
cialist who has studied widely both
in this country and Europe, said:
'lf you were to make an ac
tual blood test on all people who are ill
you would probably be greatly aston
ished at the exceedingly large number
who lack iron and who are ill for no
other reason than the lack of iron. The
moment iron Is supplied all their multi
tude of dangerous symptoms disappear.
Without Iron the blood at once loses
the power to change food into living
tissue, and therefore nothing you eat
does you any good; you don't get the
strength out of It. Your food merely
passes through your system like corn
through a mill with the rollers so wide
apart that the mill can't grind. As a
result of this continuous blood and
nerve starvation, people become gen
erally weakened, nervous and all run
down, and frequently develop all sorts
of conditions. One is too thin; another
is burdened with unhealthy fat; some
are so weak they can hardly walk;
some think they have dyspepsia, kid
ney or liver trouble; soms can't sleep
at night; others are sleepy and tired
all day; some fussy and irritable; some
skinny and bloodless, but all lack phy
sical power and endurance. in such
cases it is worse than foolishness to
take stimulating medicines or .larcotlc
drugs, which only whip up your lag
ging vital powers for the moment, may
be at the expense of- your life later on.
No matter what any one tells you, if
you are not strong and well you owe
it to yourself to make the following

down to hard facts there is nothing
llko good old Iron to put color in your
cheeks and good, sound, healthy flesh
on your bones. It is also a great nerve
and stomach strengthener and the best
blood builder In ttie world. The only
trouble was that the old forms of inor
ganic iron, like tincture of Iron, iron
acetate, etc., often ruined people's
teeth, upset their stomachs and were
not assimilated, and for these reasons
they frequently did more harm than
good. But with the discovery of the
newer forms of organic Iron all this
has been overcome. Nuxated Iron, for
example, is pleasant to take, does not
injure the teeth and is almost immedi
ately beneficial.
