What DO the Children Drink at the
Table

Coffee and tea are injurious; they ge:
tired Of milk or water. and there is but
one other thing to give them. that is,
Grain-O. a new food drink that takes
the place Of coffee and tastes so much
like it that even the parents can't tell
the difference. 1t is the opposite to
coffee. for instead Of breaking down
the nervous system il builds it up. in
stead of making one bilious it keeps
the whole system in n healthy condi-
ton. Grain-O is a delicious table bev-
eraGe made of pure grains. having the
rich seal brown color Of Mocha or Java
Grain-O is not Il medicine. but a food
drink thst every one likes. and every
one of the family can drink without the
least injurE. 1t costs only about one
quarter as much as coffee. Sold by all
grocers. 1Jc. and DC. per package

The foregoing is but one of many wonder
