When baby gets two or three months
old it is the custom of some mothers
to allow the Grape-Nuts to soak in the
milk a little longer and become mushy.
whereupon little of the food can be
fed in addition to the milk containing
the washed off sugar

as an illustration of a perfectly digest

We quote from the London Lancet
analysis as follows: ''--
The basis of nomenclature of this
n preparation is evidently an American
pleasantly, since 'Grape-Nuts' is de-
rived solely from cereals. The prepa-
ratOry process undoubtedly converts
the food constituents into a much more
I digesuOie condition than in the raw
cereal. This is evident from the re-
In markell solu6ility Of the preparation,
no less than one-heIf of it being SOL

contains chiefly dextrtn and no starch.

/ Moisture, 6-02 per cent: mineral mat

per cent. The features worthy Of note

portion of prOteid, mineral matters

| Tne mineral matter was rich in phos-
phoric acid. 'Grape-Nuts' is described
as brain and nerve food, whatever
| that may be. Our analysis, at anv
rate, shows that it is a nutritive OF a
high order, since it contains the con-
stituents OF a complete food in very
satisfactory and rich proportion and
in an easily assimilabl state"
An analysis made by the Canadian
Government some time ego shows that
Grape-Nuts contains nearly ten times
the digestible elements contained i'm or
binary cereals, and foods. and nearly
| twice the amount contained in any
other food analysed.
The analysis is familiar to practically
every successful physician in America
and London.
We print this statement in order that
the public may know the exact facts
upon which we stake our honor and

We propose to follow some of these
choice specimens of the tribe of Ana
Mas.
When you hear a cooking school |
teacher or any other person assert that
either Postum or Grape-Nuts are made
of any other ingredients than those
printed on the packages and as we saw
they are made, send us the name and |
address, also name of two or three
witnesses. and if the evidence is cIeartl
enough to get a judgment we will right /
that wrong quickly.
Our business has always been con-
Quoted on as high a grade of human !
intelligence as we are capable of. and 1
we propose to clear the deck of these /
prevaricatOrs and liars whenever and |
wherever they can be found.
Attention is again called to the gen |
eral and broad invitation to visitors to /
go through our works. where they will |
be shown the most minute process and /
device in order that they may under /
stand how pure and clean and whole |
some Grape-Nuts and Postum are.
There is an old saying among bust |
ness men that there is some chance to |
train a fool. but there is no room for
a liar, for you never can tell where /
you are, and we hereby serve notice
on all the members of this ancient tribe |
of Ananias that they may follow their
calling in other lines but when they
put forth their lies about Grape-Nuts
and Postum, we propose to give them
an opportunity to answer to the proper
authorities
The New York girl wisely said that
if a person would lie about one item.
it brands the whole discourse as abso-
lutely unreliable.
