Zoos as a Food.

BABY WEATHER.
Little Fellows Don't Like the Hot
DAYS.


Mothers should know exactly what
food to give babies in hot weather.
With the broiling hot days In July
and August the mother of a baby is
always anxious for the health of her
little one and is then particularly care
full in feeding. Milk sours quickly and
other food is uncertain. Even In spite
of caution, sickness sometimes creeps
In and then the right food Is more nee
essary than ever.
Our baby boy two years old began
in August to have attacks of terrible
stomach and bowel trouble. The phys
ician said his digestion was very bad
and that II 1t had been earlier in the
summer and hotter weather we would
surely have lost him.
Finally we gave baby Grape-Nuts
food. feeding 1t several times the first
day and the next morning he seemed
better and brighter than he had been
for many days. There was great
change in the condition of his bowels
and In three days they were entirely
normal. He is now well and getting
very strong and fieshy and we know
that Grape Nuts saved his life. for he
was very, very i'll baby. Grape-Nuts
food must have wonderful properties
to effect such cures as this.
I'VE grown-ups in our family all use
Grape Nuts and also Postum in place
of coffee with the result that we never
any of us have any coffee Ills, but are
well and strong" Name given by Pos
tum Co., Battle Greek, Mich.
The reason Grape-Nuts food relieves
bowel trouble in babies or adults is
because the starch of the grain Is pre-
digested and does not tax the bowels,
nor ferment like white bread potatoes
and other forms of starchy food.
