But Couldn't Eat.

"A man who has seen many years sail
ing as cook on the finland Seas. as the
Great Lakes are called, has learned
thing or two about food, as the following
story shows:
~ am cook on the Great Lakes and
have for five years suffered more than
pen or tongue could tell from stomach
trouble, and have taken medicines enough
to float the boat sail In, and yet with
out any relief from pain.
'"rhcre were long stretches OF time
wtan could not even keep milk or
wine or the llghtest kind OF food on my
stomach. and had fallen away. from 10
to loi pounds in less than two years.
saw SO much In the newspapers a bout
your food, Grape Nuts, that one day y
decided TO try It. although without the
least hone of success
: $50 i bought package In Cleve!ano
and made the trial. and my stomach was
so cranky that I was afraid to try more
than ono teaspoonful with little milk,
TO my surprise, kept It on my stomach
without any bad feelings and at the end
of an hour knew 1t had digested and
gone to the right spot, so tried Two
teaspoonfuls more with the same result
And now for the past seven months
have lived almost entirely on Grape
Nuts, where before simply lived on
medicines which consisted principally OF
opIates, that relieved me- for time, but
shattered my nerves and weakened my
stomach.
Soon after I began Grape Nuts gave
up all medicines. for saw that Grapes
Nuts was renaking me. Now my nerves
are back In their proper shape anu my
stomach Is so strong ] can eat almost
any kind OF food without any suffering
whatever. s
ut may interest you to know that your
food Is very fine In cases OF seaslckness
TOR In this line it has no equal. In many
cases of very rough water I have given
Grape-Nuts to people on my boat VINO
were seasick, when the sight of even
coffee would be unbearable, but a few
teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts prepared with
only water was taken and more asked
Tor and given with perfect results.
'You never saw two healthier or hap
pier youngsters than my two grand
children who eat nothing else for break
fast or supper but Grape-Nuts. There are
two other men on my boat besides my
Self who eat nothing else but Grape-Nuts
for breakfast. Had II mt been for this
perfect food l would now be dependent
on my relatives for support, The fellows
on the boat make fun OF me when they
see me coming along with my litSle vel
low package, but I guess under the cir
cu1nstances ] can afford to laugh with
thsm,"
