PUZZLED
Hard Work, Sometimes, to RaIse
Children.

Children's taste is ofttimes moro 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
4 weak little chap and we were pup
zled to know what to feed him on.
"One lucky day we tried Grape
Nuts. Well, you never saw a 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 I
think he would have liked the food
for dinner.
THE difference in his appearance Is
something wonderful.
MY husband had never fancied &C.

came very fond of Grape-Nuts and has
been much improved In health since

Grape-Nuts as an experiment and the
result was almost magical.
