When baby gets two or three months
old it is the custom Of some mothers to
allow the Grape-Nuts to soak in the

~whereupOn a little OF the food can be
fed in addition to the milk containing
the washed off sugar.
It is by no means manufactured for q
baby food, but these facts are stated as
an illustration Of a perfectly digestib1e
food.

We quote from the London Lancet
analysis Is follows:
1.-The basis Of nomenclature Of this
preparation is evidently an American
pleasantly, since 'Grape-Nuts' is de-
rived solely from cereals. The prepare

food constituents into a much more dt-
gestibIe condition than in the raw
cereal. This is evident from the re-

no less than one-half of it being soluble
in cold water. The soluble part con-
tains chiefly dextrin and no starch. In
appearance 'Grape-Nuts' resembles
fried bread-crumbS. The grains are
brown and crisp, with a pleasant taste
not unlike slightly burnt malt. Accord

composition of :Grape-Nuts:' Moist

per cent; fat, 1.6O per cent; proteids.
1906 per cent; soluble carbohydrates,
etc., 1910 per cent; and unaitered
carbohydrates GnSOlublel. 25.97 per
cent. The features worthy of note in
this analysis are the excellent proper
ton OF proteid, mineral matters. and
soluble carbohydrates per cent. The
mineral matter was rich in phosphoric
acid. Grape-Nuts' is described as q
brain and nerve food, whatever that
may be. Our analysis, at any rate.

order, since it contains the constituents
of a complete food in very satisfactory

An analysis made by the Canadian
Government some time ago shows that
Grape-Nuts contains nearly ten times
the digestible elements contained IN or
binary cereals, and foods, and nearly
twice the amount contained. In any
other food analysed.
The analysis is familiar to practically
