What About Brain Food?
This Question Came Up in the Recent
Tri Libel.

A weekly" printed some criticisms OF the

some interesting facts came out.
Some of the chemical and medical experts
differed widely.
The following facts, however, were quite
clearly established:
Analysis Of brain by an unquestionable au-
thority, Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts,
Phosphoric Acid and Potash combined {Phos-
phate Of Potash) 2.91 per cent of the total,
5,33 of all Mineral Salts.
This is over one-half
Beauns, another authority shows "Phos-
phortc Acid combined" and Potash 73.44 per
cent from total of 10107.
Considerable more than onehalf of Phos-
plate OF Potash.
Analysis of Grape-Nuts shows: Potassium
and Phosphorus (Which join and make Phos-
plate of Potash), is considerable more than
one-half of all the mineral salts in the food.
DR.. Geo. w. Carey, authority on the con
stituent elements of the body, says: "The

by the inorganic cell-salt, Potassium Phosphate
