He had traveled 5000 miles by water and rail in a wooden box. He was scarce 2 years old and none too strong. Things looked dark for Darwin, but he took to civilization like a duck to water, and under the tutelage of Will iam Chambers, head animal trainer, he has developed like an infant prodigy- Chambers haa remarkable ideas on the subject of animal training and one of them is that all animals in common with human beings feel the influence of the zodiac. "My father put me in this way of thinking when I was a boy. Chambers explained in a recent interview, "and I have had occasion to thank him many times for his teaching. I would no more think of trying to train an animal without knowing the sign under which he was born than I would think of planting corn in De cember. Take Darwin, for instance, his horoscope has been substantiated in numerous ways. Some people, of course, may" deem my theories a Joke, but I have never known them to fail. They have helped me to master several hundred wild beasts." . As a special feature of the animal exhibit of the Ringling Brothers' cir cus, which is to appear in this city on Monday, August 27, at Twenty-fifth and Raleigh streets, will be one sec tion which will be devoted entirely to African exhibits.

You will want to do your bit in preventing waste of the great food staples. You can do this by demanding a larger per cent, of whole wheat grain in bread and breakfast foods. The real "war bread" must contain the entire wheat grain not the white flour center but every particle of gluten and mineral salts that are so necessary to the well-balanced ration; also the outer bran coat that is so useful in keeping the bowels healthy and active. Shredded. vv heat CHI is 100 per cent, whole wheat. It is therefore the real"war bread." The whole wheat grain is the most perfect food given to man. It contains every element the human body needs to build healthy tissue, and furnish energy for the day's work. Two or three of these crisp, brown loaves of Shredded Wheat with milk and sliced bananas, berries, or other fruits, make a nourishing, strength ening, satisfying meal at a cost of a few cents.
