When q man has suffered from dys-

trouble he may be excused for saying
sit acts like magic"
When 1t Is a simple, wholesome
food instead of any one Of a large num-
Der of SO called remedies in the form
of drugs, he is more than ever likely
to feel as though O sort Of miracle has
been performed.
A Chicago man, in the delight Of re-
stored digestion, puts it In this way:
Like magic, fttingly describes the
manner in which Grape.Nuts relieved
me of poor digestion, coated tongue
and loss Of appetite, Of many years
standing.
81 tried about every medicine that
was recommended to me without re-
lief. Then l tried Grape-Nuts on the
suggestion Of a friend. BY the time
I had finished the fourth package, my
stomach was all right, 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 I con-
slider the effects of Grape-Nuts on a
weak stomach as something really
wonderful. 1t builds up the entire
