CHANGED HUSBAND. Wife Made Wise Change in Food.

Change of diet is the only way to really cure stomach and bowel trouble.
 A woman says:
 My husband had dyspepsia when we were married and had suffered from it possible to find anything he could eat without bad results
 q thought this was largely due to the use of coffee and persuaded him to discontinue it. He did so, and began to drink Postum Food Coffee. The change did him good from the beginning, his digestion improved he suffered much less from his nervousness, and when he added Grape-Nuts food to his diet he wass soon entirely cured.
 "Mr. friend, Mrs. -, of Vicks- burg, (my former home) had become a nervous wreck also from dyspepsia. Medicines had no effect, neither did travel help her. On my last visit home, some months ago, I persuaded her to use Grape Nuts food. She was in de- spair, and consented. She stuck to it until it restored her health so com- pletely that she is now the most enthu- siastic friend of Grape Nuts that I ever knew. She eats it with cream or dry, just as it comes from the package keeps it in her room and eats it when- ever she feels like 1t.
 q began eating Grape-Nuts food myself, when my baby was two months old. and I don't know what I should have done without it. My appetite was gone, was weak and nervous and af- f>,,+ 1itf1a isIoY the child. The Grape Nuts food, of which I soon grew very fond, speedily set all this right again, and the baby grew healthful, rosy and beautiful as a mother could wish. He is two years old now Ind eats Grape Nuts food him. self. I wish every tired young mother knew of the good that Grape Nuts would do her
