LOOSE TEETH
Made sound by Eating Grnpe-Nuts.

Proper food nourishes every part of the body, because Nature selects the diff, rent materials from the food we eat, to build bone nerve, brain, muscle, teeth, etc.
 All we need is to eat the right kind of food slowly, chewing it well-our digestive organs take 1t up into the blood and the blood carries 1t all through the body, to every little nook and corner.
 If some one would ask you. Is Grape-Nuts good for loose teeth?' you'd probably say, 'No, I don't see how it could be-" But woman in On tarto writes:
 For the past two years l nave used Grape-Nuts Food with most excellent results. It seems to take the place of medicine in many ways, builds up the nerves and restores the health gener- ally"
 "A little Grape-Nuts taken before re- tiring soothes my nerves and gives sound sleep" Because it relieves irri- tabiljty of the stomach nerves, being a predigested foodl
 Before I used Grape-Nuts my teeth were hose in the gums. They were so bad I was afraid they would some cay all fall out. Since I have used Grape Nuts I have not been bothered any more with loose teeth.
 "All desire for pastry has disappears ed and l have gained in health, weight and happiness since I began to use Grape-Nuts." Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich. Get the ia nous little book. "The Road to We'll ville," in pkgs. There's a reason"
