Grape-Nuts

"A short time ago | was called to a
patient who had been given up by his
physician.
His stomach would not bear food
and consequently he got no nourish-
ment and was slowly dying from ex-
haustion.
He was reduced to skin and bones
l Immediately put him on Grape Nuts
food and Postum Food Coffee He
could keep both articles on his
stomach and neither caused him any
pain. He has been using both the
food and the cereal coffee and has
gained rapidly"
The reason a delicate stomach can
take Grape-Nuts food is that it is
predigested by natural means during
its preparation, and even small babe
can handle it as it causes no heavy
work by the stomach and digestiy e
apparatus; on the contrary, being
predigested. it is quickly assimiated
into blood and tissue.

Physicians, Unable to Move Obstacle

Philadelphia, Sept. 1S.-Oscar Wild

jackstone at his home. 1925 North
Eleventh street, was taken to the JEFF
f-rson Hospital for N-ray treatment.
y surgical operation may be necessary
to rid the chld's throat of the obstacle.
Soon after the mishap occurred the
boy was taken to the Children'S HOmeo-
pathic Hospital. wh-r" the physicians
worked in vain to remove the blackstone.
1t WAS too far down to be reached by
pliers. and olive oil was poured into the
,hild's throat in a fruitlesS effort to
move the little iron object.
Since the boy appeared tC be suffer-
ing lutte, he was taken home in the
hope that the blackstone would work it
self out. but this morning he was
scarcely able TO breathe, and stringent
measures We're decided upon in order
that his life may be saved.
