A DOCTOR SAYS
Hrape-Nuts Food Contains All the
Elements Condensed.

There was time when doctors de-
pended almost entirely on the use of
drugs in treating disease. That day
is happily past, and our doctors Of to-
day are men of wider views-they
have learned that proper food is most
important in healing disease. A prac-
ticing physician in New York City
says:
Disease is often an effort of nature
to get rid of impurities in the system
as the result of incorrect habits
wrong living. The cause of disease
ought to and can be removed by right
living and right thinking.
Mature requires good air, sunlight,
food of proper quality and quantity,
plenty of pure water, exercise, cleanli-
ness and sleep. When these condi-
tions are met, health follows, but when
they are denied or neglected, sickness
and disease are sure to result.
"The important question is to decide
what is the proper kind of food to sup
ply the physical and mental necessities
Of man? l have had experience with
all the various food stuffs known to
our markets, but up to the present
time l have met with no other answer
ing so fully all the requirements as
does Grape-Nuts food. In my own ex-
perience and observation in my prac-
tice, 1 have found Grape-Nuts to be
not only more satisfying, but more
lasting in the benefit derived from it's
use. 1t sends man forth to his la
bors in a state of physical comfort,
with a cheerful and buoyant spirit;
and the end of the day finds him with
reserve strength-he suffers less from
exhaustion and depletion of powers.
IL particularly recommend Grape
Nuts food to those whose occupations
involve a great deal of brain work
There could not be a food better
adapted to the Strengthening and con-
servation of the faculties and ener-
gies. 1t supplies a more sustained
mental vigor than any other food that
I know of.
"Grape-Nuts food contains all the
elements that form the valuable part
of natural diet in a condensed, tooth
some and easily digestible form"
