When man has suffered from dys-

When 1t is simple, wholesome

Der of so called remedies in the form
of drugs, he is more than ever likely
to feel as though a sort of miracle has
been performed.
A Chicago man, in the delight of re.
stored digestion, puts it in this way:
Like magic, fittingly describes the
manner in which Grape-Nuts relieved
me of poor digestion, coated tongue
and loss of appetite, OF many years
standing.
Il tried about every medicine that
was recommended to me, without re.
lief. Then l tried Grape-Nuts on the
suggestion of friend. By the time
| had finished the fourth package, my
stomach was all tight, and for the past
two months l have been eating with
a relish anything set before me. That
is something had been unable to do
previously for years.
81 am stronger than ever and con.
slider the effects of Grape-Nuts on a
weak stomach as something really
wonderful. 1t builds up the entire
body as we'll as the brain and nerves.
