For the first three years of my
course at college l suffered much from
severe indigestion with consequent loss
of weight and energy of body and

| purchased a package OF GrapeNuts.
For two meals daily | ate nothing
but Grape-Nuts with good rich cream

extreme satisfaction | found that all
the symptoms of ilatulence, acid
quotations and mental depression dis
appeared entirely. | gained in weight,
strength and cheerfulness and at the

among the highest in the class and
better than those of any previous year.
.'Prolongad and hard study lowers
the tone of the system generally, the
secretions of the stomach being fire.
