In some diseases the chance of the
patients recovery depends almost en-
tirely on an accurate dietary For eN-
ample in typhoid fever the only psrmis-
sjble food is milk. Any solid or starchy
food would give rise to such serious
&C implications that the patients chances
of recovery would be lost. The strict
est care has to be taken, even when
the patient has passed the crisis, or
there may be a relapse from which the
patient might not rally. At this stage,
however. the patient often complains of
great hunger and longing for more
solid food, and it will need all the tact
and self-control at her command to
withstand these appeals and to be firm
and yet kind
Luckily this extreme caution is not
necessary in nursing all complaints,
and il often happens that with certain
limitations the choice of food is left in
the hands of the nurse.

A WORKING BRAIN

Can be Made Successful on Right
A busy man in one of Americas
largest watch factories tells how by
change of food he gained a clear brain
and steady nerves and averted a men
tai and physical breakdown. He
says:
Il was accustomed all my life to
the ordinary diet of the average table.
thought that meat, potatoes and 9TH
er vegetables and fruit were necessary,
and that tea, coffee and pastry in mod
crate quantities were not injurious.
"But l found in course of time, that
nv dietary was affecting my health
seriously. For four years I continued
to run down In time my nerves be-
came seriously affected, they seemed
constantly keyed up to the highest ten
sion and I became subject to the most
violent bilious attacks which used to
leave me in weak and nervous con-
dition for several days. The climax
seemed to have been reached a few
years ago when / found myself about
as near a physical wreck as man
could we'll be, and live. Physicians,
tonics and other medicines, visits to
the country, etc, ETC., were of no avail.
'.In sheer desperation, concluded a
few months ago to see what effect a
diet of Grape-Nuts fooG would have.
1 had often heard of it, but had little
hope that it would help me. at once
cut out all the heavy dishes with the
tea and coffee that / had always used
and began to eat Grape-Nuts with
cream and pinch of salt. Afterwards
/ added fruit with occasionally an egg
beaten up in milk, and entire wheat
bread This has been practically my
diet for more than two months.
81 found that with the new diet j
gained complete relief almost imme-
diately from all the distress that used
to follow every meal, my bilious condi-
ton was speedily regulated and cured,
my nerves have grown healthy and.
steady-in short my run down consti-
tuition has been reconstructed and built
up. AS to the effect upon my menta-
powers, I have only to point to the.
fact that / have recently been placed
in a responsible position in our estab-
lishment where complete concentration
of mind is required to deal with COM
plicated records and reports, and that
I have been enabled to keep my &C.
counts absolutely correct, which my
numerous predecessors uniformly fail
