KNOWLEDGE OF FOOD.
Proper Selection Of Great Importance
in Summer.

The feeding of infants is very
serious proposition. as all mothers
know. Food must be used that will
easily digest. or the undigested parts
will be thrown into the intestines and
cause sickness.
1t is important to know that a food
can be obtained that is always safe;
that is Grape Nuts.
A Texas mother writes: NV baby
took the first premium at baby
show and is in every way prize
baby have fed him on Grape Nuts
since he was five months old. I also
use your Postum for myself"
Grape Nuts food is not made solely
for baby food by any means, but is
manufactured for all human beings.
One special point of value is that the
food is partially predigested in the
process of manufacture, not by any
drugs or chemicals whatsoever, but
simply by the action of heat moisture,
and time, which permits the distaste
to grow, and change the starch into
dextrin. a portion of which is further
changed to dextrose or grape sugar.
This presents food to the system
ready for immediate assimilation.
It's especial value as food, beyond
the fact that it is easily digested, is
that it supplies the needed elements
to quickly rebuild the cells in the
brain and nerve centres throughout
the body.

Wellville, in pkgs. There's a Rea-
son."
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full Of human
interest.
