Even Better
Than Frumenfy
Old English Dish Is Now Surpassed
by a Matted Grain Food.

Writing on the food problem and ad-
vocating a rational health diet. DIR.
Josiah Oldfeld. author of 1.-The Claims
of Common Life" and other we'll
known works, declares a sufficiency OF
grain food is necessary and refers to
the old English dish of frumenty as a
most excellent article of food. He also
speaks of matted grain as a food for
increasing years. This eminent author
thus strikes the very keynote of health
and strength.
There is a modern food which en-
braces all the qualities of frumenty
and has even more. for it is matted
grain. We refer to Malta-Vita-all
pure grain and nothing else.
Malta-Vita is made by an extended
and elaborated process of the old way
of making frumenty. The whole wheat
grain is thoroughly cleaned. then
boiled in water and cooked in steam
TO gelatinize the starch. After the
starch cells have broken down. the
wheat is mixed with pure barley
malt extract which converts the gela-
tinized starch into maltese. or malt
sugar. highly nutritious and easily di-
gested even by the weakest stomachs.
Then each grain of wheat is rolled
into little wafer flakes and goes TO the
great ovens where. under intense heat.
1t is baked crisp and brown. done
to a turn" and ready for your table.
All grocers sell Malta-Vita. 10 cents.

The book is by r. A. Barnett, who is

There is nothing in the slightest de-
