BRAIN POWER
Increased by Proper Feeding.

A lady writer who not only has done
good literary work but reared a fam
lily, found in Grape-Nuts the ideal food
for brain work and to develop healthy
children. She writes:
u am an enthusiastic proclaimer of
Grape-Nuts as regular diet. for
merly had no appetite in the morning
and for years while nursing my four
children, had insufficient ncurishment
for them.
Unable to eat breakfast felt faint
later, and would go to the pantry and
eat cold chops sausage, cookies,
doughnuts or anything | happened to
ind, Being writer, at times my
head felt heavy and my brain asleep.
When read of Grapefruit | began
eating it every morning, also gave it
to the children, including my 10
months old baby, who soon grew as
fat as little pig, good natmed and
l wrote evenings and feeling the
need of sustained brain power, began
eating small saucer of Grape-Nuts
with milk, instead of my usual indi.
gestible hot pudding, pie, or cake for
dessert at night.
Il grew plump, nerves strong, and
when | wrote my brain was active and
clear; indeed, the dull head pain never

PURE FOOD.
No Food Commissioner of Any State
Has Ever Attacked the Absolute
Purity of Grape-Nuts.


Every analysis undertaken shows
this food to be made strictly of Wheat
and Barley, treated by our processes
% partially transform the starch
parts into a form Of Sugar, and there
Fore much easier TO digest.
Our claim thai it is Food for
Brain and Nerve Centres" is based
upon The fact that certain parts of
Wheat and Barley (Which we use) con
tain Natures brain and neVe-building
ingredients, viz: Phosphate Of Pot
ash, and the way we prepare the food
makes it easy to digest and assimilate
DR., Geo W. Carey in his book on
The Biochemic System of Medicine"
says;
When the medical profession fully
understands the nature and range Of
the phosphate of potassium, insane
asylums will no longer be needed.
The gray matter of the brain is
controlled entirely by the inorganic
ccll-salt, potassium phosphate,
This salt unites with albumen, and
by the addition Of oxygen creates nerve
fluid, or the gray matter of the brain,
"Of course, there is a trace of other
salts and other organic matter in
ncrve-Auid, but potassium phosphate
is the chief factor, and has the power
within itself to attract, by its own law
of affinity, all things needed to manu-
factwe the elixir of life. Therefore,
when nervous symptoms arise, due to
the fact that the nerve-fuid has been
exhausted from any cause, the phos-
phate of potassium is the only true
remedy, because nothing else can
possibly supply the deficiency,
The ills arising from too rapidly
consuming the gray matter of the
brain cannot be oyerestimated.
Phosphate of Potash, is to my
mind, the most wonderful curative
agent ever discovered by man, and
the blessings it has already conferred
on the race are many But what
shall the harvest be- when physicians
everywhere fully understand the part
this wonderful salt plays in the
/ processes of life? 1t will do as much
as can be done through physiology to
make heaven on earth.
Let the overworked business man
take it and go home good tempered
/ Let the weary wife, nerves unstrung
from attending to sick children or en-,
tertaining company, take it and note
how quickly the equilibrium will be
/ restored and calm and reason assert
her throne, No proyings are required
here. We find this potassium salt
largely predominates in nerve-huid,
and that a deficiency produces well.
| defined symptoms. The beginning and
end of the matter is to supply the
lacking principle, and in molecular
form, exactly as nature furnishes it in
Vegetables, fruits and grain, To sup
ply defciencies-this is the only law
of cure"
Please observe that Phosphate Of
Potash is not properly of the drug,
shop variety but is best prepared by
old Mother Nature and stored in
the grains ready for use by mankind.
Those who have been helped to better
health by the use of Grape-Nuts are
legion.

CARE OF THE KITCHEN.
Clean Walls Are an Essential to
Sanitary Cooking.

II is not only important to know
how to cock, but it is equally impor'
tant to know where to cook. Cook
ing in dirty kitchen can never pro
duce good food. The idea is simply
preposterous, yet kitchen walls are
left for months-sometimes for years
without cleansing.
In the first place the kitchen wall
should have light tint that the mer-
est Aeck of dirt can be seen; that the
shecrest cohweb can he brushed
away; that the tiniest water bug can
be discerned. 1t is all folly expecting
clean food in kitchen with dirty
walls.
Never put a wall coating on a
kitchen wall that is mixed with hot
water or that has glue in it, or sour
milk in it if mixed with cold water
Glue walls made from horses hoots
colored up with cheap colorings DO
not indicate good housekeeping. The
glue is constantly Aechng off, fall
ing into the food and the idea of food
favored with glue made from horses
hoofs is not appetizing.
Kitchen walls to be thoroughly sat
isfactory should be alabastined the
same as every other wall in the
house. They should be coated regu,
larry in the spring and fall Of each
year with a light tint.
The care Of the pantry requires
constant attention. The walls should
be brushed over every year. the
dishes removed from the shelves
which should be thoroughly wiped
with hot watcr If there are ant
holes or any other insects in the pam
tries a thick putty of the wall coat
ing can be made and all the ant holes,
even small mice holes can be filed
with it which will protect the pantry
from the incursions OF disagreeablo
insects and mice.
