Wheat and milk are the, two basic,
balanced foods that nature offers US.
Inst as it grows, with the bran for
minerals, the germ for fat and
v;tamine value, and starch and pro-
.e;n both we'll represented, it is
almost a complete food-butter or
milk making it quite so.
And sometimes we find that its
v;tality has survived the ages and
that it will terminate and grow, if
vven an environment more favor
able than a mummy case, even after
centuries. But not all Of the nour-
;sbnent is in form easily used by
The body, especially the valuable min
srals in the bran, and experiments
bsye shown that these are rejected
and are found in the excreta. 1t is
ior this reason that finely ground
Graham -four or whole wheat is more
available for body needs than coarse
IL ground, and, carrying this idea
further, it is believed that the
shredded wheat in it's shredded form,
very thoroughly baked to encourage
complete mastication, will yield up a
maximum amount Of nourishment to
the consumer.
There has been much talk pro and
CON concerning white flour (the bran
renoved) versus the whole of the
wheat. The very protagonists of
white -four, who claim for it greater
amount of nutrition, admit by their
contention that you can supply the
necessary minerals from other
sources that something valuable has
been extracted! Why take it out
and seek it again from some other
source, when nature provides the
essentials all in one little package

How Wheat Came To Be
Shredded
But here, more than ever, the
proof Of the pudding is in the eating,
and shredded wheat was not born
If theory and a hope. It was the
child Of need and experience. About
twenty-five years ago, one Henry D.
Perky, dyspeptic lawyer, sitting
dejectedly in a tavern in Nebraska.
wondering what he could eat that
would hurt him least, observed a
fellow man across the table, dill
gently MASKING boiled whole wheat
With a spoon, pouring milk sano
cream on it and eating it with relish

ing else but this, and get along fine
No pain and have plenty of punch.
Too bad it won't market" (St
much for those who fear laceratee
intestines from whole wheat.)
Lawyer Perky tried it himself sue
eessfully and agreed that it was too
bad it wouldn't market. Even whole
wheat bread and fours sometimes
turn rancid if not properly handled
whereas their degerminated, pale
faced relatives keep, because there II
no fat in them to spoil! So thu
problem was, how to get this perfec
food to market in a form that i
would be digestible and would keep
A food machinist was called int
conference, and the little machine
that draw the wheat out into shred

vised, the ovens for baking it an
toasting it were built, and the small
loaves Of shredded wheat were ready

The Blood.


The blood is the means by which
all the tissues of the body are directly
or indirectly nourished. You will at
once realize that unless the blood is
pure, some part of the body will soon
become diseased.
Waste products in the blood are an
element Of danger. Ninety per cent
Of the people "below par are suffer-
ing with waste products in the blood.
When your blood is loaded with
waste products, you become weak,
nervous, irritable and easily upset.
Other symptoms are pimples, boils,
or some other skin disorder; loss Of
weight; and probably rheumatism.
Your blood is your fountain source
Of energy-therefore keep your blood
