Gus century this country has ever
known. Riches. like beauty, go by
comparison: certain it is that the great
bulk Of our people today are better OF

this. the Salvation Army calls for Of
ferings Of thanksgiving TO God on be-
half of its stupendous work for God in
the souls and bodies of unnumbered
starving men. women and children, the
call should give pause TO every content

II has been stated that there is in the
Salvation Army one millionaire but If
that is so his millions must be very
lonely; for officers and soldiers alike,
these militant followers OF Christ are, as

FOUND OUT.
What a Mother Found Out About
Food.


A mother found out what a change Of
food can do for whole family, from the
nursing baby TO the adults. in this way:
Twice during the summer months my
baby was taken violently i'll and was
very slow getting over the attacks. His
former diet of cows milk alone ceased
TO agree with him so I combined it with
an expensive infants food but he soon
became very much constipated-
Then 1 shifted to Grape-Nuts food
and found that this was Just what baby
needed, adding it to his milk after soft
ening in hot water. Baby has thrived
upon this food and is now healthy and
strong and chubby as any mother could
ask which you know is saying great
deal
1T did not take me long TO find out
that a saucer of GTape-NutS and cream
is just what is needed by the tired nerv-
Gus mother and / have also proved to
my own satisfaction that when the chill
dren are old enough to chew Grape Nuts
il is far better for them than oatmeal OF
any other mushy foods. for It developes
their teeth and helps their digestion and
their minds seem much brighter and
more active too
Truly here is a wonderful food and
one for the entire family" Name given
