OUT-OF-DOOR FOLKS.
The question of healthful, strengthening food is an im
portant one to those who engage freely in out-of-door sports
and recreations, whether for health or pleasure.
Open air life calls for foods which embodies in the high
est possible degree strengthening and vitalizing qualities.
Shredded Whole Wheat Biscuit
precisely meets these requirements. It is composed of the
whole wheat berry, which analysis shows to contain in con
centrated form, every element entering into the composition
of the human body. It builds bone, teeth, muscle and tissues,
and supplies vim and energy.
It is a tempting food, as it may be prepared in hun
dreds of ways with milk, cream, eggs, fruit and vegetables
something new for every meal.
Always serve according to directions in "The Vital
Question Cook Book," which we send free.
Xriscuit,
the whole wheat cracker, take the place of bread it is health
ier and better in every way. Try "Toasted Triscuit and
Cheese."

He Wa a Summer Boarder Who Ex
pected to Die.
"I ain't sayin' that all the young fellers
in Detroit are like the one I took in as a
summer boarder through July and Aug
ust," said the Oakland County farmer,
"but I'm tellin' you that I can't be done
for agin right awr.y. He come drivin1 up
one day, lookin' as pale as a ghost and
bavin' a lonesome cough on him, and he
explained that he wanted a quiet, restful
place 'til he got ready to die of consump
tion. All he wanted for any meal in the
day was a glass of buttermilk, and he
said he alius went to bed at sundown.
He talked about death and graveyards
and angels 'til he got my pity up, and J
gave him an appetite. I looked to see
him in bed soon after dusk, but he was
moonin' around the farm 'til after mid
night, and slept so late in the mornin'
that he had to have a special breakfast.
That was only a beginnin'.
"When I think of the pork and beans
an' taters that young feller stowed away
in the two months I wonder how I can
ever pay my taxes this fall. It was eat
and drink all day long, with a special
lunch at night. A pan of sweet milk was
only a sip for him, and a boiled dinner
vanished before him like frost before a
hot sun. I ought to have had at least ten
bushels of harvest apples to sell, but he
ate all but about two pecks, He gobbled
on to my pears and plums and peaches,
and he drank up the last of my hard cider
and currant wine. Six fresh eggs beat

f i
I LATIIKO-r E. BALDWIN, NEW YORK, RUNNER-UP, I
finally agreed to take him for $2.50 per
week."
"And did he die on your hands?"' was
asked.
"Not if the color of my hair is black!
Lands save ye, but he's somewhere in
town this very minit, and he's most too
fat to walk around and lookin' healthy
null to live for a hundred years to
come."
"What happened V
"Well, that cough disappeared before
he had been with us two hours, and that
night at supper he just cleaned off the ta
ble and left me 'n the old woman still
hungry. He'd got away with a gallon of
buttermilk before the meal, but it only
up was oidy a taste for him in the morn
in", and a dozen boiled or fried at supper
time seemed to be about his fit. Me 'n
the old woman could figger that lie ate
at least $4 worth of stuft'a week, to say
nuthin' of his bein' a trubble.
"But when he finally come to take his
departure he figured that the board he
had contributed would pay off the mort
gage on my farm and buy a new mowin'
machine to boot. I may take another
summer boarder sometime, but you can
bet your life it won't be one that's got
consumption and is expectin' to pass
through the pearly gates before black
berries are ripe'
