A LAST RESORT.
Pure Food Should Be the First.

Pure Food Should Be the First.
When the human machine goes
wrong it's ten to one that the trouble
began with the stomach and can
therefore be removed by the use of
proper food. A lady we'll known in
Bristol, Ontario County, N. Y, tells
of the experience she had curing her
only child by the use of scientific
food: my little daughter, the only
child and for that reason doubly dear,
inherited nervous dyspepsia. We
tried all kinds Of remedies and soft
foods. At last, when patience was
about exhausted and the child's con-
dition had grown so bad the whole
family was aroused, we tried Grape
Nuts.
"A friend recommended the food as
one which her own delicate children
had grown strong upon so purchas-
ed box-as last resort In very
short time marked change in both
health and disposition was seen.
What made our case easy was that
she liked 1t at once and ITS crisp,
nutty flavor has made it an immedt
ate favorite with the most fastidious
in our family.
tits use seems to be thoroughly
established in western New York
where many friends use it regularly.
I have noticed its fine effects upon
the intellects as well as the bodies

Consumption is a human

Strengthen the lungs as you

The best lung fertilizer IS
Scots Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to- treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
10 take SCOTS Emulsion. II
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. II it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but i you will
begin in time and will be
