GRATEFUL FOR FOOD. Lived Seven Weeks on Milk.

''Three years ago this month I was a great sufferer with stomach trouble, '' writes Mrs. William Leigh of Prairie du Sac, Wis. "I had to give up eating meat, potatoes and sweets, and lived simply on bread and tea; finally that, too, had to be given up. I got so weak I could not work and took nothing into my stomach for seven weeks but milk. l had tried three doctors. and all for no purpose. The last doctor advised me to stop all medi- cine. I had to. anyway. I was so weak l was prostrate in bed.
 "A friend advised me to try Grape Nuts, but I was afraid to when a tea spoonful of milk brought tears to my eyes my stomach was so raw. But l tried one teaspoonful day Of the Grape Nuts for one week. and finding that fl agreed with me, increased the quantity In two weeks I could walk out to the kitchen; in four weeks I walked half a block. and today I do my own light housekeeping.
 T lived on Grape-Nuts and know they saved my life My people all thought could not live a month when I com menced using them. and are very much surprised at the change in me. am very grateful that there is such a food to be obtained for those vho have veal stomachs."
