NO MEDICINE.
But Change of Food Gave Final Relief.

Most diseases start in the aliment-
ary canal-stomach and bowels.
A great deal of our stomach and
bowel troubles come from eating toe
much starchy and greasy food.
The stomach does not digest any OF
the starchy food we eat--white bread
pastry, potatoes, oats, etc.-these
things are digested in the small intes-
tines, and If we eat too much, as most
of us do, the organs that should di-
gest this kind of food are overcome
by excess of work, SO that fermenta-
tion, Indigestion, and a long train
of ails result.
Too much fat also is hard to digest,
and this is changed into acids, sour
stomach, belching gas, and bloaty,
heavy feeling.
In these conditions a change from
indigastible foods to Grape-Nuts will
work wonders in not only relieving
the distress 'but in building up q
strong digestion. clear brain and
steady nerves. A Wash. woman
writes:
about five years ago suffered with
bad stomach-dyspepsia indigestion,
onstipation-caused, l know now,
from eating starchy and greasy food.
