was one of great many physicians
who have not only written commenda-
tory words about the value of our
foods, but every now and then some
physician writes an article on coffee
or on food, and sends it to us with a
suggestion of compensation for his
time and medical knowledge. Previous
to the time when we employed physi-
clans in our own business, we occa-
sionally employed a doctor to write
an article on coffee, always insisting
that the article be an honest expression
of his opinion and research.
The weekly" hunted up this physi-
clan, and because he seemed to be
poor, and as it says, "brokedown," had
him brought to Court to be exposed
before a jury as the "only physician
that had ever endorsed Grape-Nuts,"
but much to the chagrin of the
Weekly" when our attorneys asked
him if the article he wrote about cof-
fee was true, he replied, yes"
STATEMENT NO. 5, reads: "The
health officers of Mich, Maine, Penn,
New Hamp., and other states in their
official bulletins have for years been
denouncing as preposterous and frau
dulent the claims made by the Postum
Cereal Company" We do not recall
any criticism except from Mich,
Penn, Maine and s. Dakota.
The average reader might think
that the opinions expressed by the
State Officials are always correct, but
that conclusion is not borne out by
facts.
AS an illustration: About thirteen
years ago the Dairy and Food Com,
mission of Michigan for some personal
reason printed severe criticism on
us for making Postum of Barley (ac-
cording to his official chemist) at mar
ket price and selling too high. He
was shown there was never a grain of
barley used in Postum. His report
was false and misleading. The COVER
nor dismissed him.
We believe that most of the state
officials are honest, and on the other
hand We are firmly convinced that
some of their conclusions cannot be
substantiated by facts in scientific re-
search.
They never criticize the purity of
our foods, for so much we are thank
full.
If our conclusions in regard to its
being a brain food differ from theirs.
and we are both honest, they have
rather the advantage, because under
the law they can order us to eliminate
from the package any statement if 1t
disagrees with their opinion. Other |
wise they would harass grocers.

This is intended to muddle the read.

houiiSuHenJ cannot be judged by the
number Of heat units, notwithstanding
the fact that certain chemists would
have the public believe so.
AS an illustrations: Attempt to feed
man sixty days on butter alone, with
its $50 calories. The man would die
before the experiment had run sixty
days.
Then, take Grape-Nuts with 3.96 and
milk with 0.70,-the two combined
equal 4.66, about one-half the num-
Der of calories contained in butter.
The man fed for sixty days on this
food would be well nourished, and
could live not only sixty days, but six
months on that food alone, and we do
not hesitate to say from our long
knowledge of the sustaining power
of the food that man at the end of
sixty days would be of practically the
same weight as when he started. If
he be man of normal weight.
We will suppose that from his work
he lost pound day and made up a
pound each day from food If that

sixty days time would make sixty
pounds of 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-Nuts, which
is partly digested and ready for easy
assimilation by the body, presents
more nourishment that The system will
absorb than many other forms of food,
and We will further say that in cases
of digestive troubles where meat,
white bread and oats cannot be digest
ed, that Grape-Nuts and milk contain
more nourishment that the system will
absorb than many pounds of these
other foods.
DISTORTION NO. 8 charges that
our testimonials were practically all

These testimonials were demanded

this demand was refused, for they are

Testimoy at the trial brought out
the fact that We never printed a single
testimonial that we did not have the
