Your Thinker a Thought?

Funny things happen in this world
and now and then some of them mako
one an interested observer, for instance:
several years ago a man pursued n
systematic course of investigation to
discover what kind of elements the body
would take up from the vegetable king
a0m out OF which TO make gray matter
In the brain and nerve centers through
out the body; also how to prepare this
food so that IL would be easily digested
and allow nature to make use of these
elements So far the proposition was
all right Question-How to bring ali
this about?
II took over two years work to solve
the problem successfully After II was
solved the food was given to many
people and the result watched carefully
Nnen all results were proven beyond
doubt the food was put on the market
under the name of Grape Nuts Then
followed public announcement in the
newspapers and magazines that such a
1000 was in existence and that it would
perform its intended work.
People ali over the world realized the
need of such food and began purchas-
ing il literally. II attracted so much
attention that a long list OF imitators
sprung up all over the country They

IL was a brain food"
Then, from these imitators, came the
Offering OF spoons, knitting needles,
chinaware. pictures, doll babies. and
even pianos TO induce people to gorge
themselves with the various and sundry
things.
Fortunately the most of these inita-
ton foods are harmless and decently
clean so that no real harm is done except
that people who pay out money 10 Sc

right TO expect an equitable return for
that money
Investigation proves that in practically
all cases where limitations are put upon
the market the men who place them
are unframed and have no knowledge of
the real scientific basis of food making
If they did have, they would produce
original articles. The very fact that
they make limitations is prima facie evil
dence that they have no professional
ability to originate valuable articles
themselves. but must get under the
caves of some originator

the starchy elements are slowly

known as Post Sugar. In this
form IL is ready for immediate assimila-

There's a reason and profound one
for the use OF GTape-Nuts. The FOOD Is
