4 Lunch Fit for a kino.

An active and successful young
ndy tells her food experiences:
Some years ago I suffered from
nervous prostration, induced by con-
tinuous brain strain and improper
food, added to great grief.
II was ordered to give up my work,
as there was great danger of my mind
failing me altogether. My stomach
was in bad condition nervous dyspep-
Nuts food was recommended to me, I
had no faith in it. However, I tried
it, and soon there was a marked i'm
provement in my condition.
81 had been troubled with faint
spells, and had used a stimulant to
revive me. I found that by eating
Grape-Nuts at such times | was re-
lieved and suffered no bad effects,
which was great gain. AS to my
other troubles-nervous prostratfon,
dyspepsia, etc.-on the Grape-Nuts diet
they soon disappeared.
Il wish especially to call the atten-
ton Of office girls to the great benefit
I derived from the use of Grape Nuts
as a noon luncheon. I was thoroughly
tired Of cheap restaurants and ordin-
airy lunches, and so made the expert
ment of taking a package of Grape
Nuts food With me, and then slipping
out at noon and getting a nickeTs
worth Of sweet cream to add to it.
II found that this simple dish, fin.
ished off with an apple, peach, orange,
or bunch of grapes made lunch fit
for a king, and one that agreed with
me perfectly

at all, and in the two years have had
only four lost days charged up against

THREE CURED OF ECZEMA

when a child, I suffered eight
years with eczema I could not sleep
at night, and had sores all over my
chest. We had doctors and none
could do any good, until my mother
saw the advertisement of the Cuti-
cura Remedies in the paper. We used
the Cuticura Soap, Ointment and
Resolvent, and they cured me OF
eczema also used them on my five
children. Two of them had eczema
sery badly. When my children had
eczema, I was not worried at all, as
I knew the Cuticura Remedies would
a0 their work. They had sores all
over their heads, their hair would fall
out, and they would scratch all night
and day. They had it on their heads,
face, and in back Of the ears SO that
thought their ears would drop off,
washed their heads and bodies with
Cuticura Soap and they are as clean
rs the driven snow. Cuticura Soap
and Ointment also cured my children
of ringworm. l would not be without
the Cuticura Remedies. They are
