Weaned the Baby
NEVER UP A NIGHT.

A man in Grand Rapids, Michigan, F.
J. Hill, druggist, discovered that one
OF the most perfect and safe ways to wean
a babe was to begin feeding Grape Nuts,
the famous breakfast food.
His letter states: elf there is a baby
food that is better than Grape Nuts, II
must be dandy. We began feeding our
little Garcia Grape-Nuts before weaving,
and for few months after it was her only
food, and a fatter, more healthy child
could not be found. We we're never I'D
night, nor did she have days sickness.
We didn't realize when she gave up the
nurse. Consequently we feel grateful for
the product called Grape-Nuts, and wish
you success"
This coming from a druggist who has
access to all the wel-known baby foods is
somewhat remarkable, but when one real
lies that Grape-Nuts are composed Of the
most nourishing parts Of the cereals,
treated by heat, time and moisture, with
out any drugs whatsoever, and thereby
with scientific processes, actually pre-
digested, in the same manner that the
human body changes the starch OF the
cereals into a delicate grape sugar, it is
easy to understand why the food can be
handled by even very young baby.
Ii is not only the most powerful nutri-
tive food Tor athletes and strong men, but,
as seen, II is applicable to the most deli,
cate stomachs. This fact has been proven
over and over again by use with invalids
and weak babies. Add to these nutritious
features the fact that Grape Nuts is of
most delicious flavor, the grape sugar TO
be seen glistening on the little gran
uies, and reason is discovered for the
universal and enormous sale of the new
food product.
Grape-Nuts are made by the Postum
Cereal Co., Ltd, at Battle Creek, and sold
by all first-class grocers.-Adv.

MILITARY OPERATIONS END.
Unprecedented Rains Causes Floods
Around Manila.

MANILA. July 2i.-The unprecedented
rains Of the last week have convinced
observers here that military operations
on a large scale or advances covering
many miles will be impossible for a
long time. Many miles Of the country
are flooded to a depth of three or four
feet. The Paranaque bridge, which was
considered impregnable, has been swept
away, cutting off temporarily the gar.
risons Of linus and Bacoor from com.
munication with Manila. In the cir.
cumstances it will be impossible to
move wagon trains as the trails have
become doubtful. Pack mules will be
utilized if it should become possible 70,
soldiers to make marches. The officials
will have their hands full for some time
in arranging for the departure of vol.
unteers and in settling the regulars
who are replacing them.
