The Gift of Gifts 



There is a Reason 



LONDON LANCET, the great medical author- 

 ity, says of Grape-Nuts : " The grains are 

 brown and crisp, with a pleasant taste. ..... 



The preparatory process undoubtedly converts 

 the food constituents into a much more digesti- 

 ble condition than in the raw cereal The 



features worthy of note are the excellent propor- 

 tion of proteid, mineral matters and soluble 

 carbohydrates per cent. Our analysis shows 

 that it is a NUTRITIVE OF A HIGH ORDER, since 

 it contains the CONSTITUENTS OF A COM- 

 PLETE FOOD and in an EASILY ASSIMILABLE 

 STATE." 



Edward M. May, M. D., of Mt. Zion, 111., says: 

 " I desire to inform you of my short but very 

 satisfactory experience with Grape-Nuts as a 

 food. I had nervous dyspepsia for over a year, 

 and lost flesh to 122 pounds. I concluded it 

 was time to throw physic to the dogs in my 

 case, and looked around for some concentrated, 

 palatable prepared food. I got hold of Grape- 

 Nuts and began using it four times a day, exclu- 

 sively for breakfast with milk; for luncheon and 

 dinner as dessert. The heartburn, waterbrash, 

 palpitation and other symptoms soon disap- 

 peared, and I can now eat a square meal and 

 feel good afterwards. I weighed yesterday and 

 had gained 18 pounds in a month. And the end 

 is not yet."
