FACT III

Bread dyspepsia is common. 1t affects
the bowels because white bread is nearly
all starch, and starch is digested in the
intestines, not in the stomach proper.
Up under the shell OF the wheat berry
Nature has provided a curious deposit
which is turned into diastase when IL is
subjected to the saliva and to the pan
create juices in the human intestines.
This dlastase Is absolutely necessary to
digest starch and turn II into grape-sugar.
which Is the next form; but that part Of
the wheat berry makes dark -four, and
the modern miller cannot readily sell dark
aour. so natures valuable digester is
thrown out and the human system must
handle the starch as best IT can, without
the help that Nature intended
Small wonder that appendicitis, peri
tonitis, constipation. and all sorts OF
trouble exist when We go so contrary to
Natures lazy. The food experts that per-
fected Grabe-Nuts Food, knowing these
facts, made use in their experiments OF
the entire wheat and barley, including all
the parts, and subjected them TO moisture
and long continued warmth, which allows
time and the proper conditions for devel-
oplng the disstase, outside OF the human
body.
In this way the starchy part is trans
formed into grape-sugar in a perfectly
natural manner, without the use Of chem
icals or any outside ingredients. The lit
tie sparkling crystals OF grape-sugar can
be seen on the pieces of Grape-Nuts. This
food therefore is naturally pre-digested
and its use in place OF bread will quickly
correct the troubles that have been
brought about by the too free use OF
starch in the food and that is very COM
mon in the human race today.
The effects OF eating Grape-Nuts ten
days or two weeks and the discOntinuance
OF ordinary white bread. is very marked
The user will gain rapidly in strength and
physical and mental health

Wonderful Hood River Valley.

Great, wide, wonderful, beautiful
world
With Hood River stream upon you
curled,
And Hood River valley upon your
breast,
World you are wonderfully blessed
Mt. Hood peak towers over me,
And Mt. Hood glaciers are grand to
see,
And the little streamlets down the
hills
Do good service for lumber mills.
You friendly valley, not tar you go,
But apple trees nod and strawberl les
grow,
And are sent to cities, towns and
isles,
And all through the country for
thousands Of miles.
Oh, world, you are great and Hood
River small,
But prices go up and don't seem to
fall;
And when | was tall ing in town today
A stranger came to me and heard
him say,
"Hood Rivers the valley, the ONLY
spot
To raise good fruit, Other places can
| not" M. A. b., City.
