SENSE ABOUT FOOD
Facts About Food Worth Knowing.

1t Is q serious question sometimes to
know just what to eat when a per-
sons stomach is out of order and most
foods cause trouble.
Grape-Nuts food can be taken at any
time with the certainty that it will
digest. Actual experience of people is
valuable to anyone interested in foods.
A Terre Haute woman writes: Il
had suffered with indigestion for about
four years, ever since an attack of ty-
phoid fever, and at times could eat
nothing but the very lightest food,
and then suffer such agony with my
stomach would wish never had to
eat anything.
Il was urged to try Grape-Nuts and
since using it l do not have to starve
myself any more, but l can eat it at.

fled, dyspepsia is a thing of the past,
and l am now strong and we'll.
| "My husband also had an experience
with Grape-Nuts. He was very weak
and sickly in the spring. Could not
attend to his work. He was under
the Doctors care but medicine did not

gan to leave off ordinary food and use
Grape-Nuts. 1t was positively surpris.
ing to see the change in him. He grew
better right off, and naturally he had
none but words Of praise for Grape
Nuts.
Our boy thinks he cannot eat a
meal without Grape-Nuts, and he
learns so fast at school that his teach
er and other scholars comment on it.
am satisfied that it is because OF
the great nourishing elements in
Grape-Nuts."
There's Reason"
1t contains the phosphate of potash
from wheat and barley which combine
with albumen to make the gray mat

centers.
1t is pity that people do not know
what to feed their children. There are
many mothers who give their young
sters almost any kind of food and
when they become sick begin to pour
the medicine down them. The real
way is to stick to proper food and
be healthy and get along without med
icine and expense.

times who mourned the disappearance

II Was His Way,

A Kansas farmer was telling recent

talked he could hear the click, click

that they never hear my receiver

on to the thing and let it down so
easy that it doesn't click!"--Kansas

Outcome of Summer Cruise.

My own equipment for emergencies

Arctic. Many Eskimos had gathered
on the Greenland shores at Annatok,
for the winter bear hunt. Immense
quantities of meat had been collected
and about the camp were plenty Of
strong dogs. The combination was
lucky, for there was good material
for equipment.
"All that was required was conven-
iently arranged for at a point only
700 miles from the Boreal center. A
house and workshop was built Of

"The campaign opened with few
scouting parties being sent over the
American shores to explore the way
