BREAD DYSPEPSIA.
The Digesting Element Left Out


Bread dyspepsia Is common. 1t af-
fects the bowels because white bread is
nearly all starch, and starch is digested
in the intestines, not in the stomach
proper. JTp under the shell of the
wheat berry Nature has provided Gu
rious deposit which is turned into dias-
tase when it is subjected to the saliva
and to the pancreatic juices in the HUI
man intestines.
This diastase is absolutely necessary
to digest starch and turn it into grape
sugar, which is the next form; but that
mart of the wheat berry makes dark
-four. and the modern miller cannot
readily sell dark flour, so natures val
uable digestor is thrown out and the
human system must handle the starch
ss best it can, without the help that
Nature intended.
Small wonder that appendicitis, peri
tonitis, constipation, and all sorts of
trouble exist, when we go so contrary
to Natures law. The food experts that
perfected Grape-Nuts Food, knowing
these facts, made use in their expert
ments of the entire wheat and barley,
including all the parts, and subjected
them to moisture and long continued
warmth, which allows time and the
proper conditions for developing the di-
astase, out side of the human body
In this way the starchy part is trans
formed into grape sugar in perfectly
natural manner, without the use Of
chemicals or any outside ingredients,
The little sparkling crystals of grape
sugar can be seen on the pieces of
Grape Nuts This food therefore is
naturally predigested and its use in
place of bread will quickly correct the
troubles that have been brought about
by the too free use of starch in the
food, and that is very common in the
human race to-day.
The effect of eating Grape-Nuts ten
days or two weeks, and the discontin-
uance of ordinary white bread, is very
marked. The user will gain rapidly in
strength and physical and mental
health,

WILL. RETURN TOMORROW,


DR.. William Pitt Baldwin Nearly Re
covered from Blood Poisoning.
DR.. William Pitt Baldwin, who was
taken seriously i'll with blood poisoning
about three weeks ago, will return to
New Haven tomorrow, having recover
ed almost entirely from the effects of
the dreaded disease. DIR. Baldwin, it
will be remembered, contracted the dis
ease from one of his patients who was
undergoing an operation, and it was at
first feared that the poisoning would
prove fatal. He was laid up at Grace
hospital with a badly swollen arm for
a week and finally the swelling went
down. He was able to leave the hos
pital about two weeks ago and went to
Lake Pleasant, in Hamilton county,
New York, for a complete recovery.
The clear New York air did DR. Bald
win a great deal of good, and he re-
turns to New Haven greatly improved
in health, though not entirely well.
