RESTORED BY
GRAPE-NUTS
FOOD.
A RATIONAL FOOD CURE.

One Of the well-known grocers in
Washington. D. c., who supplies the
food of many Of the brainy, represent
alive men OF the country, says: II
have become an enthusiastic consumer
OF Grape-Nuts. 1t has constituted sole
ly my morning and evening meal for the
past eight months. Previous to this,
worn out with overwOTk, broken down
in health, dyspepsia having led to
Bright's disease, heart trouble and what
not, Twas given up to die. This food
came to my notice through one OF my
customers. The name suggested some-

prunes, raisins or the like, and when
put 1t in the store glance at the label
persuaded me to make a trial person.
ally.
i had at the store for my supper a
dish and n half dish, and was. Impress
ed, perhaps unfavorably, with Its rich
i. ess, perceivlng at the same time how
very appropriately the new food was
named. Strange us It may appear, Its
effect was almost at once apparent.
Seated that evening at my home I re-
marked to the family that II was the
first time In a whole year that had
felt like myself. was much elated and
naturally attributed the change to
Grape-Nuts. My improvement since
then has been continuous, my health Is
better than ever before I look ten years
younger and am untlring in my
strength" CThe gentleman does not
care to have his name quoted publicly,
but his store can be found at T26 Eight
zenith street, Washington, d. CO
Now for the reason i. The man or
woman worn out with overwork or
nervous prostration will find an Inn
mediate gain in strength by the use Of
Grape-Nuts and cream, because OF the
fact that the natural phosphate Of pot
ash obtained from certain parts Of the
grains Is one OF the strong elements in
Grnpe-Nuts. and this Is presented to the
system In the form demanded by nature;
not as drug.
The system takes up the needed par
ticles OF phosphate Of potash and It Is
now known that the soft gray matter
which fills the delicate nerve centers
throughout the body, as well as the
brain and the solar plexus, can only
be made md renewed from day to day
by the action OF phosphate OF potash on
albumen. Albumen IL one OF the prin-
clpal elements OF all food, but unless
albumen has with II In the system a
sufficient amount OF phosphate OF pot
ash It cannot be transformed into brain
matter without the action OF this par
ticular element. for there Is no known
way to make gray matter except by
the combination of albumen and phos-
plate OF potash.
Therefore. when one uses Grape
| Nuts he makes use Of the best sclen-
tIfIc knowledge OF the day In the selec-
lion of food for invigoratlng and re-
yIta'izlng the body. This food has be-
come famous throughout the world, and
II Is to be found In every first-class gro
Gerry store. Grape-Nuts are made by
the Postum Co.. at their factories in
Battle Creek.

more than this sum. Popular subscrlp-
