IT'S THE FOOD.
Tho True Way to Correct Nervous
Troubles.

Nervous troubles are more often
caused by improper food and indiges-
ton than most people imagine. Even
doctors sometimes overlook this fact.
A man says:
Until two years ago waff1es and
butter with meat and gravy were the
main features of my breakfast. Finally
dyspepsia came on and found myself
in bad condition, worse in the morn
ing than any other time. l would have
a full, sick feeling in my stomach.
with pains in my heart, sides and
head.
"At times I would have no appetite,
for days. then l would feel ravenous,
never satisfied when did eat and so
nervous l felt like shrieking at the
top of my voice. lost flesh badly and
hardly knew which way to turn until
one day l bought box of Grape-Nuts
food to see If l could eat that. I tried
1t without telling the doctor, and liked
it fine; made me feel as If l had some
thing to eat that was satisfying and
still | didn't have that heaviness that
l had felt after eating any other food.
Il hadn't drank any coffee then in
five weeks. l kept on with the Grape
Nuts and in month and half I had
gained is pounds, could eat almost
anything I wanted, didn't feel badly
after eating and my nervousness was
all gone. It's pleasure to be well
