TURN OVER TIME
When Nature Hints About the Food.

When there's no relish to food and
all that one eats doesn't seem to do
any good then is the time to make a
ture's way of dropping a hint that the
food isn't the kind required.
For a number Of years l followed
railroad work, much of it being Office
work of trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest; and eating too much
and too quickly of food such as is
| commonly served in hotels and res
taurants, together with the sedentary
| habits. were not long in giving me
dyspepsia and stomach trouble which
reduced my weight from EOS to 100
| pounds.
There was little relish in any food
and none Of it seemed to do me any
good. 1t seemed the more I ate the
poorer l got and was always hungry
before another meal, no matter how
much l had eaten.
Then / commenced a trial of Grape.
Nuts food. and was surprised how a
small saucer Of 1t would carry me
along strong and with satisfied appe-
sations of hunger, weakness or dis
tress as before.
Il have been following this diet
now for several months and my i'm
provement has been so great all the
| others in my family have taken up the
use of Grape-Nuts with complete sat-
isfaction and much Improvement in
health.
