LOST SIGHT OF

An important point often overlooked by parents in bringing up children Is the use of proper food as an aid to education.
 Children make wonderful progress when scientifically fed.
 A little woman in East Brentwood. N. H., says of her girlhood days "I was never very rugged and cold lunches and hearty evening meals and improper food soon began to work serious havoc.
 Then came a period of self boarding while away at college and 1t is now easy to see where, in the haste to acquire knowledge the true knowledge of proper and nourishing food was neglected The result, as may be imagined, was indiges- tion, dyspepsia and constipation. Then followed a weary time of dieting and, one afther another, physicians were con- suited, till hope of permanent cure was abandoned. Then, two years after leav- ing school, I entered a new home as a bride and having grown wiser through experience, 1 resolved to use food in ac- cordance with hygienic principles This was also necessary as I could not eat anything at all rich
 We commenced to use Grape Nuts and soon became convinced that 1t was the most nutritious food we could obtain. T noticed an immediate improvement in my health, my indigestion became less marked and eventually left me for good.
 It is now two years that We have eaten Grape-Nuts regularly, and was never as well in my life as now. I have gained ten pounds in weight and can eat, with out causing the slightest distress. the richest kind of food as well as anyone, the dyspepsia is entirely gone and con- stipation never troubles me.
 This may not interest others. but 1t is of great interest to us. for 1t is our firm belief that my present good health Is due solely to the constant use of Grape Nuts and we feel that we have great reason to be thankful to the maker of such. a per feet and delicious food" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.
