Which do you think WonP

Not long ago two men, athletes, went
into a contest to see which could stand
erect and hold his arms stretched out
full length at either side of his body for
the longer time. One mar had fed on
steaks and chops, sausage, ham, roast
beef, ETC.. the other ate heartily, but con-
fined himself to such foods as Quaker
Oats, rice, macaroni, etc. Which do you
think held out longer?
The first man lasted twenty-five min
utes. The Quaker Oats-macaroni-rice
chap concluded to stop after he had been
at it more than three hours.
There's more strength and economy in
eating lots of Quaker Oats than most
people imagine.
Every family should eat plentifully of
Quaker Oats at least once every day;
breakfast is the best time. It strengthens
you for the day.
