A perfect hot weather breakfast,made up of GRAPE- NUTS and cream, some fruit, soft-cooked eggs, and a bit of crisp toast, starts the day right, keeps the blood cool And body and brain well nourished. Compare the cool, contented GRAPE-NUTS-fed man or woman with your meat-fed neighbor who is swel tering and miserable. You don’t have to cook GRAPE-NUTS for the reason that this food is cooked perfectly^ at the factory. This cooking is done on scientific principles, so that all the starches of the grains arc transformed until they are ready for immediate digestion and yet all the good of the grains is left in.

Peters went to the minister’s home at nlghr, onll-d him to the door and sit «t him In Ihe presence of the man’s wife and children. P-.-tcrs will be hang ed Ecplembtr 29. That there la a great awakening of the public conscience and a fixed In tention on the part of the people to hold Its public servants strictly to ac count for every act, la evident by In formation given out by Claude N. Bennett, of Washington. Mr. Bennett Is an old newspaper man, formerly representing an At lanta paper at the national capital. He was also private secretary to Governor Hoke Smith when the governor was sec re titty of the Interior. For some years past Mr. Bennett has conducted the Congressional’ Information Bureau In Washington, an Institution that furnlshen public men and others all kinds of data. Mr. Bennett Is now spending hls va cation In Atlanta, and In conversation gave the following Interesting Infor mation: , "Usually I am not very busy with my Information bureau service be tween sessions of congress. The bulk of my work Is In compiling needed data and statistics fur senators, con gressmen, and other nfflrlats.

It Indicates thrjt tho people no longer take It for granted that tho men they send to Washington perform their full duty. They evidently mean to know without guess-work whether or not the men they send to represent them are doing what Is right. , "It would Indicate a general awaken ing nil over the country. The old way of electing a man, and further Interest In hls record stopping with the ballot. Is a thing of the past. The voters now demand to know what their congress man la doing, and our requests are for detailed statements of their records In congress." This Is perhaps nnothsr striking evi dence of the reform wave that has set In all over the’ country.

The Doctor Writes of Counterfeiters. CHAS. E FLETCHER, New York City. Hyannis, Mass, Aug. 17,1905. Dear Mr. Fletcher:—I wish to congratulate you on your numerous vic tories over counterfeiters and imitators of Castoria, and trust the time is not far distant when these inferior and dangerous mixtures will be entirely suppressed. Yon are right when yon say in your advertisements that it is “ Experience against Experiment.” I feel it to he an outrage, and an imposition upon the parents of little chil dren that my name should he associated with imitations of Oastoria, dangerous to the health and life of these little ones who too often fight their battles for life in vain. Let me again commend you for the high standard you have maintained in the preparation of my prescription, and I confidently believe it is due .to this scrupulous integrity you are indebted for tho wonderful sale of Castoria to-day, and the steady growth it has had since I gave you tho details of its manufacture in my laboratory thirty-three years ago. ,p.
