NEVER TIRES
Of the Food That Restored Her to
Health.

Something was making me i'll and

ed, but got no better.
Finally, Mother suggested that l
try Grape-Nuts, and l began at once,
eating it with a little cream or milk.
A change for the better began at once.
To-day l am well and am gaining
weight and strength all the time. I've
gained 10 lbs in the last five weeks
and do not suffer any more from in
digestion, and the rheumatism is all
gone.
Il know it is to Grape-Nuts alone
that | owe my restored health. still
eat the food twice a day and never
tire of it." Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
The favour of Grape-Nuts is peculiar
to itself. 1t is neutral, not too sweet
and has an agreeable, healthful quality
that never grows tiresome.
One of the sources of rheumatism Is
from overlooking the system with
acid material, the result Of imperfect
digestion and assimilation.
AS soon as improper food is aban-
doned and Grape-Nuts is taken regu-
larly. digestion is made strong. the
organs do their work Of building up
good red blood cells and Of carrying
away the excess of disease-making
material from the system.
The result is certain and steady
return to normal health and mental
activity. There's a reason" Read
