THE DOCTOR HABIT.
And How She Overcame Ii.

When we'll selected food has helped
the honest physician place his patient
in sturdy health and free from the
doctor habit" it is a source of sat
isfaCtion to all parties. A Chicago wo-
fan SAYS
1--WE have not had a doctor in the
house during all the 5 years that we
have been using Grape-Nuts food. Be
fore we began, however, we had the
doctor habit and scarcely a week went
by without a call on our physician.
when our youngest boy arrived, 5
years ago, I was very much run down
and nervous, suffering from indiges-
ton and almost continuous headaches.
I was not able to attend TO my ordi-
nary domestic duties and was so ner-
vcus that I could scarcely control my
self. Under advice I took to Grape
Nuts.
Il am now, and have been ever
stree we began to use Grape-Nuts
food, able to do all my own work. The
dyspepsia, headaches, nervousness and
rheumatism which used to drive me
fairly wild, have entirely disappeared.
MY husband finds that in the night

Nuts food supplies him the most
wholesome, strengthening and satisfy
ing lunch he ever took with him.
