PUZZLED
Hard Work, Sometimes, to Raise
Children.

Children's taste is ofttimes more ac-
curate, in selecting the right kind of
food to fit the body, than that of
adults. Nature works more accurate
ly through the children.
A Brooklyn lady says: "Our little
boy had long been troubled with
weak digestion. We could never per.
suade him to take more than one taste
of any kind of cereal food. He was
weak little chap and we were puz.
zled to know what to feed him on.
One lucky day we tried Grape
Nuts. Well, you never saw child
eat with such relish, and it did me
good to see him. From that day ON
it seemed as though we could almost
see him grow. He would eat Grape
Nuts for breakfast and supper. and !
think he would have liked the food
for dinner.
THE difference in his appearance is
something wonderful.

"A friend has two children who were

Grape-Nuts as an experiment and the

"They continued the food and today

There Is no cure for well-spent
