FAMILY FOOD.
Crisp, Toothsome and Requires No
Cooking.

A little boy down In N. C. asked his
mother to write an account of how
Grape-Nuts food had helped their fam
lily.
She says Grape-Nuts was first
brought to her attention on a visit to
Charlotte. where she visited the Mayor
OF that city who was using the food by
the advice of his physician. She
says:
They derive 80 much good from 1t
that { ey never pass a day without
using 1t. While l was there | used the
Food regularly. l gained about Is
pounds and felt SO well that when | re-
turned home | began using Grape-Nuts
In our family regularly.
MY little Is months old baby short
ly after being weaned was very Ill
with dyspepsia and teething. She was
sick nine weeks and we tried every.
thing. She became 80 emaciated that
1t was painful to handle her and we
thought we were going to lose her.
One day a happy thought urged me to
try Grape-Nuts soaked in a little warm
milk.
We'll, 1t worked like a charm and
she began taking It regularly and i'm.
provement set In at once. She is now
getting well and round and fat as fast
as possible on Grape-Nuts.
Sometime ago several OF the family
we're stricken with LaGrippe at the
same time, and during the worst stages
we could not relish anything in the
shape Of food but Grape-Nuts and
oranges, everything else nauseated us.
We all appreciate what Your "a
nous food has done for our family"
