A CHEMIST SPEAKS.
OfPredigested Food.

AFTER having tested and tried every
form of predigested food on the market,
and experimenting in my own family,
my attention was attracted to an article
head 'Brawny Scots Diet,' mentioning
eggs and Grape-N carefully tasted
the new food and finally began its use in
my family, with most gratifying results.
sMy little boy at that time was a pale,
anaemio child and very poorly nourished.
Now, thanks to Grape-Nuts, he is as fine
a specimen of infantile strength as 1
could wish for. My own personal expert
ence means much to me. For some years
I was troubled with dyspepsia; that is,
/ could not eat bread or any preparation
of bolted wheat flour, such as cake or any
OF the starchy preparations, without tit
of Indigestion, sour stomach. costiveness,
and headache.
''As soon as quit that sort Of food and
used Grape-Nuts, which has this starchy
part predigested, began TO recover. The
change has been remarkable formerly
weighed l22 pounds and now weigh 1877
Am strong, have more nerve force than
ever possessed, appetite perfect, sleep
sound and can endure any amount of
work. 1 know exactly where the change
has come from, and 1t is from your truly
scientific and wonderful food, whicn is
worthy of the highest commendation. -
