Eating for Strength.

The greatest pleasure to be de-

gets in the knowledge that his food is
giving him greater strength and vi

Because of this fact there is con-

Quaker Oats: every time the strength
making qualities of Quaker Oats have
been tested by scientific Investigation
or by experiments in families it has
been found to be a food without an
equal.

out taxing the digestive organs; it
costs so little anyone can afford it,
and it is so carefully prepared and
packed that it is absolutely pure and
clean. A Quaker Oats eating family
Is always a healthy family.

Quaker Oats can be bought in large
