days, but six months on that food alone
and we do not hesitate to say from ou
long knowledge of the sustaining powe
of the food that man at the end o
sixty days would be of practically tn,
same weight as when he started,-if he b,
man of normal weight.
We will suppose that from his worl
he lost a pound day and made up
pound each day from food. If that prem
ise proved to be true the man in sixty
days time would make sixty pounds oi
tissue to replace what had been lost, and
this would be done on Grape-Nuts and
milk with half the number of calories OF
butter, upon which no one can sustain
life.
Therefore, we have reason to believe
that our contention is right that con.
centrated food like Grape-N Nuts, which
similation by the body, presents more
nourishment that the system will alb,
sorh than many other forms of food, and
we will further say that in cases of diges-
tive troubles where meat, white bread
and oats cannot be digested that Grape
Nuts and milk contain more nourish-
ment that the system will absorb than
many pounds of these other foods.

These testimonials were demanded bv

demand was refused for they are held in
vaults and kept safe to prove the truth

of enemies.
Testimony at the trial brought out the
fact that we never printed single testi-
monial that we did not have the genuine
letter back of. Many of these letters

who wrote that they had either entirely
recovered their health or been benefited
by following our suggestions on food
and beverages.
On three or four occasions in the past
ten or twelve years we printed broadcast
in papers offers of prizes to users of
Postum and Grape Nuts, two hundred

That each must be an honest letter with
name and address. We agreed not to pub,
lish names, but to furnish them to en-.
quirers by letter These letter writers
very generally answered those who wrote
TO them, and verified the truth Of the
statements.
Under this agreement not TO publish
names literally scores of letters came
from doctors. We kept our word and
neither printed their names or surren-
dered the letters.

The weekly" says: POST got those testi.

the impression % his readers that the
