factory results, for the baby has food
that 1t can digest quickly and will go on
to sleep well fed and contented.
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 little longer and become mushy,
whereupon a little of the food can be fed
| in addition to the milk containing the
washed off sugar.
1t is by no means manufactured for a
| baby food, but these facts are stated as
an illustration of perfectly digestible
| food.
1t furnishes the energy and strength

use by physicians in their own families
and among their patients, and can be
seen on the table of every first-class
| college in the land.
| We quote from the London Lancet
| analysis as follows:
"The basis of nomenclature Of this
preparation is evidently an American
| pleasantly, since 'GrapeNuts' is derived
solely from cereals. The preparatory
process undoubtedly converts the food
| constituents into much more digestible
condition than in the raw cereal. This
| is evident from the remarkable soluble
ity of the preparation, no less than one
half of it being soluble in cold water.
The soluble part contains chiefly dextrin
and no starch. In appearance Grape
Nuts resembles fried dbread-crumbs. The
grains are brown and crisp. with pleas
ant taste not unlike slightly burnt malt
According to our analysis the following
is the composition of 'Grape-Nuts:'
Moisture, 602 per cent; mineral matter,
2.01 per cent; fat, 1.60 per cent; proteids,
1900 per cent; soluble carbohydrates,
etc., 1910 per cent; and unaltered car
bohydrates Qnsoluble), 25.97 per cent.
The features worthy ofnotein this analy-
sis are the excellent proportion of pro-
teid, mineral matters, and soluble car
bohydates per cent. The mineral matter
was rich in phosphoric acid. Grape
Nuts is described as brain and nerve
food, whatever that may be. Our analy-
sis, at any rate, shows that 1t is nutri-
tive of high order, since it contains the
: constituents of a complete food in very
satisfactory and rich proportion and In
an easily assimilable state"
An analysis made by the Canadian
Government some time ago shows that
Grape-Nuts contains nearly ten times
the digestible elements contained in or
dinary cereals, and foods, and nearly
, twice the amount contained in any other
food analyzed.
The analysis is familiar to practically
q every successful physician in America
