EVER GIVE
Your Thinker a Thought.

Funny things happen in this world and
now and then some Of them make one
an interested observer, for instance: Sew
eraa years ago man pursued a system
attic course of investigation to discover
what kind of elements the body would
take up from the vegetable kingdom out
OF which to make gray matter in the
brain and nerve centers throughout the
body; also how to prepare this food so
that it would be easily digested and allow
Nature to make use Of these elements.
So far the proposition was all right. Cues
tion-How to bring all this about?
1t took over two years work to solve
the problem successfully. After 1t was
solved the food was given to many peo-
pie and the result watched carefully.
When all results were proven beyond
doubt the food was put on the market
followed public announcement in the
newspapers and magazines that such a
food was in existence and that 1t would
perform its intended work.
People all over the world realized the
need of such a food and began purchasing
1t literally. It attracted so much atten-
tion that a long list OF irnttators sprung
up all over the country. They boiled
wheat, roasted it, stewed il, chopped it,
mixed 1t with rye, malt, oats and perS
haps hay-we are not sure-gave it a fan
tastic, name and told the public it was a
Brain food
Then, from these imitators, came the
offering Of spoons, knitting needles, china
ware, pictures, doll babies and even
pianos to induce people to gorge them
selves with the various and sundry things.
Fortunately the most Of these imitation
foods are harmless and decently clean so
that no real harm is done except that
people who pay out money to secure a
food for special service have a right to
on ifoo la fo1.$ Io+
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. II
they did have, they would produce original
articles. The very fact that they make
limitations Is prima facie evidence that
they have no professional ability to orig
mate valuable articles themselves but
must get under the caves of some orig
inator.
Up to the present time no prepared food
has appeared, to the knowledge of the
writer, that is made upon the solid funda-
mental, scientific basis of Grape Nuts.
In this celebrated food the right parts
Of the wheat and barley are selected they
pass through various and sundry mechan-
zeal processes absolutely no chemical
treatment). In these processes the starchy
elements are slowly transformed into
IL
form 1t is ready for immediate assimiIa-
ton and transmission to the blood with
out taxing the digestive organs. BY the
blood, the elements which Nature uses
for rebuilding the soft gray matter in the
brain and nerve centers are carried to the
respective parts and there made use of,
while other elements known as carbo-
hydrates are carried to the muscles and
tissues and there deposited and held in
warmth are demanded. Remember that
simply raising the arm requires the ex-
penditure and giving of of warmth and
energy. Now then we must have the ele-
ments that supply warmth and energy de-
posted In these tissues and muscles else
we cannot release them and make use Of
them These are the missions of Grape
Nuts, and the person who desires to make
use of the proper rebuilder of brain and
nerve centers and keep them in 1rst-cass
working order, and also make use of a
supply Of warmth and energy, can abso-
lutely rely upon securing this service II
they feed regularly on Grape-Nuts.
These are incontrovertible facts DEM
onstrated by actual use by hundreds Of
thousands of Anglo Saxons to-day.
There's a reason and a profound one
for the use of Grape-Nuts. The, food is
already cooked at the factory and can be
served instantly with rich cream. 1t Is
delicious and can be made into great
variety of toothsome dishes after the re-
cipes found in the recipe. book enclosed
in each package
Attention Is also invited to another very
small but ..meaty'' little book in each
package under the title 1.-THE Road to
Wellville."
Grape-Nuts food is made at the Pure
Food Factory Of the Postum Cereal Co.,
Ltd, and sold all over the world.
