birth Of my second boy. We were In
despair until the little widows advice
brought relief.
g" liked Grape-Nuts food from the
beginning, and in an incredibly short
time 1t gave me such strength that !
was able to leave my bed and enjoy
my three good meals a day. In 2
months my weight increased from 80
to 113 pounds, my nerves had steadied
down and I felt ready for anything.
My neighbors were amazed to see me
gain so rapidly, and still more so
when they heard that Grape-Nuts
alone had brought the change.
my 4-year-old boy had eczema very
bad last spring and lost his appetite
entirely. which made him cross and
peevish. ! put him on a diet of Grape
Nuts, which he relished at once. He
improved from the beginning. the &C.
