WRONG SORT.

Perhaps Plain Old Meat, Potatoes and
Bread May Be Against You for a
Time.
A change to the right kind of food
can lift one from sick bed. A lady
in Weldon, Ill, says:
last spring l became belfast with
severe stomach trouble, accompanied
by sick headache. I got worse and
worse until I became so low I could
scarcely retain any food at all, al
though 1 tried every kind. 1 had be-
come completely discouraged, had CIV
en- up all hope and thought 1 was
doomed to starve to death, till one day
my husband trying to find something
could retain brought home some Grape
Nuts.
"To my surprise the food agreed
with me, digested perfectly and with
out distress. 1 began to gain strength
at once. my flesh (Which had been
flabby) grew firmer, my health improv-
ed in every way and every day, and
in a very few weeks I gained 20
pounds in weight. 1 liked Grape Nuts
SO well that for four months L ate no
other food, and always felt as well
satisfied after eating as if l had sat
down to a fine banquet.
81 had no return of the miserable
sick stomach nor of the headaches,
that 1 used to have when l ate other
food. l am now we'll woman, doing
all my own work again, and feel that
life is worth living.

send to my family; it surely saved my
life and my two little boys have
thriven on it wonderfully" Name CIV

removing the Offices and shops from

expected that the railroad company

full power to act for the com.
pany. When the whole improve.

that the railroad company will have
