DOCTORS sHlFT.
Now Gets Along Without Il.

A physician says: Until last fall
used to eat meat for my breakfast and
suffered with Indigestion until the
meat had passed from the stomach.
Last fall began the use Of Grape
Nuts for breakfast and very soon
found could do without meat, for my
body got all the nourishment neces-
sary from the Grape-Nuts and since
then I have not had any indigestion
and am feeling better and have in
creased in weight.
"Since finding the beneht derived
from Grape-Nuts have prescribed the
food for all my patients suffering from
indigestion or over-feeding and also
for those recovering from disease
where I want a food easy to- take and
certain to digest and which will not
overtax the stomach.
II always flnd the results I look for
when prescribe Grape-Nuts. For
ethical reasons please omit my name"
Name given by mail by Postum Co..
Battle Creek, Mich.
The reason for the wonderful
amount Of nutriment. and the easy
digestion Of Grape-Nuts is not hard to
find.
In the first place, the starchy part
of the wheat and barley goes through
various processes Of cooking, to per-
fectly change the starch into dextrose
or grapesugar, in which state It is
ready to be easily absorbed by the
blood.
The parts in the wheat and barley
which Nature can make use Of for re-
building brain and nerve centers are
retained in this remarkable food, and
thus the human body is supplied with
the powerful strength producers. so
easily noticed after one has eaten
Grape-Nuts each day for a week or
ten days.
There's a reason" and It Is ex-
planned in the little book, "Ths Road
to Wellville," in pkgs.

SALVATION Army
MAKES APPEAL

Preparing for its annual Christmas
activities, the Salvation Army is
sending out broadcast the following
appeal:
Dear Friend: Once again the Christ
mas season is upon us, with its fes-
Invites, its gifts, its comforts-for
those blessed with this worlds goods;
with its depriVations, its realiZations
of need and its Observation-Disclosures
those who are not.
We are planning a more thorough
distribution of good cheer in this city
than has been possible in the past.
For Christmas itself we mus; prepare
our usual gifts of substantial aid, sup
plying well-filled baskets to as many
as will be found TO be in need, that
the family may partake together OF
the good things in their own homes.
Then there will be the homeless to
provide for, in a sit-down dinner at
our Working Mems Hotel. We must
make them forget that they are lone.
ly and far from home and friends. "
In addition to these there are the
little ones in the Manoa Home, for
whom all the delights which mothers
plan for their babes must be proyid-
ed. This has reference to both the
Xmas turkey, the well-filled stock
ings and the inevitable Xmas tree.
But we must not forget the child
rem of Poverty's homes; they. too,
must have their Christmas tree at
our hall, and there must be the usual
quota of toys, candies, nuts, etc. They
have so little to brighten the sombre
mornings of their lives.
All this is to be united in one great
scheme, for the first time in the
Army's history in Honolulu, as all
branches are now under one head.
We cannot attempt, or work to
happy conclusion, any OF these de-
sires without your generous aid. VIII
you give it freely I'm His Name"
even to larger extent than in the
past. and you have ever been kindly
and generous.
Enclosed you will find a slip. desig-
mating the different purposes to which.
your money can be directed, the
choice is yours. Gifts of toys, food.
candies, ETC., will be gladly received
and called for. III -.
