WISE WORDS
A Physician on Food.

A physician of Portland, Oregon. has
views about food. He says:
L have always believed that the
duty of the physician does not cease
with treating the sick, but that we
owe it to humanity to teach them how
to protect their health, especially by
hygienic and dictetic laws.
With such feeling as to my duty
l take great pleasure in saying to the
pubic that IN my own experience and
also from personal observation [ have
found no food to equal Grape Nuts,
and that find there Is almost no limit
to the great benefit this food viii bring
when used in all cases of sickness and
conValescence.
1T is my experience that no physical
condition for0ds the use of Grape
Nuts. To persons in health there is
nothing so nourishing and acceptable
to the stomach, especially at breakfast,
to start the machinery of the human
system on the days work
In cases of indigestion / know that
complete breakfast can be made of
Grape Nuts and cream and | think ii
is not advisable to overload the stom-
ach at the morning meal. Il also know
the great value of GrapeNuts when
the stomach is too weak to digest
other food.
