A great scientist has said we can put
off "old age" If we can only nourish the
body properly.
TO do this the right kind OF food, OF
course, is necessary. The body manu-.
features poisons in the stomach and
intestines from certain kinds OF food
stuffs and unless sufficient Of the right
kind Is used. the injurious elements
overcome the good.
MY grandmother, II years Old"
writes a n. Y. lady, had been an in
valid for IS years from what was
called consumption of the stomach and
bowels. The doctor had given her up
to die.
II saw so much about Grape-Nuts
that | persuaded Grandmother to try
It. She could not keep anything on her
stomach for more than a few minutes.
''She began Grape-Nuts with only a
teaspoonful. AS that did not distress
her and as she could retain it, she took
little more until she could take all OF
4 teaspoonfuls at a meal.
Then she began to gain and grow
strong and her trouble in the stomach
was gone entirely. She got to enjoy
good health for one so old and we
know Grape-Nuts saved her life.
"The doctor was astonished that in.
stead of dying she got we'll and with
