HOW THE HOUSEWIFE CAVES
MONEY.
Buys Malt Breakfast Food; Most De-
licious and Economical of All Ce--
reals.

Now that the Beef Trust is sending
prices soaring, and coal bills are gong
to be higher, it is necessary to econ
omize somewhere. Malt Breakfast Food
points the way, by increasing the size
of it's package, so that now. full
weight two-pound package of this de-
licious cereal is sold for fifteen cents.
Malt Breakfast Food is ready to COCK,
and is easily prepared. 1t makes eight
times as much food as any of the
ready to-eat" cereals, and is far more
|appetizing and nourishing.
Begin the day Alright with breakfast
of Malt Breakfast Food; the cereal that
tastes the best, and that is the most
economical.
Malt Breakfast Food is not a medi-
Gated fad; it is simple, honest, delicious
food, that nourishes perfectly, and
never overloads the stomach with in
digestible material.
Charles L. Wetherbee of the famous
buckingham on fifth avenue, New York
city, writes: After getting a taste of
Malt Breakfast Food we fell so much
in love with it that 1t was absolutely
impossible to wait for the arrival of the
case we had ordered: we, therefore, i'm
mediatcly purchased q supply and mad
it placed upon our bill of fare. Since
that time we have been compelled to
buy several cases."
