MISCHIEF MAKER
A Surprise In Brooklyn.

An adults food that can save b
baby proves itself to be nourishing and
easily digested and good for big and
little folks. A Brooklyn mar says:
When baby was about eleven
months old he began to grow thin and
pale. This was, at first, attributed to
the heat and the fact that his teeth
we're coming, but, in reality, the poor
little thing was starving, his mothers
milk not being sufficient nourishment.
One day after he had cried bitterly
for an hour, I suggested that my wife
try him on Grape-Nuts. She soaked
two ~teaspoonfuls in a saucer with a
little sugar and warm milk. This baby
ate SO ravenously that she fixed a sec
ond which he likewise finished.
1T was not many days before he for
got all about being nursed, and has
since lived almost exclusively on
Grape-Nuts. Today the boy is strong
and robust, and as cute a mischief
maker as a thirteen months old baby
is expected to be.
We have put before him other
foods. but he will have none of them,
evidently preferring to stick to that
which did him so much good-his old
friend Grape-Nuts.
Use this letter any way Won wish.
for my wife and ! can never praise
Grape-Nuts enough after the bright
ness It has brought to our household.
Grape-Nuts Is not made for a baby
food, but experience with thousands OF
babies shows IT to be among the best.
4 not entirely the best in use. Being
q scientific preparation Of Natures
grains, It is equally effective as 4 body
and brain builder for grown-ups.

Melville" In pkgs. There's a Reason.
