DON’T BE AN 
ESQUIMAUX 
ULLNESS, is a racial characteristic of the 
only people who do not cook their food, 
viz-the Esquimaux. segs 
Cooking is simply a stage in pre-digestion. 
The more pre-digested a food is, before it is 
eaten, the less energy will it take from Brain-power, 
during the after process of digestion. 
Why do you feel ‘‘dull’’ aftera heavy dinner? 
Every bit of steam taken away from the 
engines of a Ship, on a winter voyage, to heat the 
state-rooms, is so much loss of speed which she 
might have made, in warmer weather, with the same 
boilers, and the same Coal consumption. 
Digestion is work, just like sawing wood, or 
thinking out a knotty problem. 
The energy put into it can be economized for 
Intellectual effort, by the liberal use of ** Grape- 
nuts’’ instead of cruder diet. 
Not half the food we eat, is ever fully diges- 
ted, nor entirely assimilated, so that there is no 
danger of your Liver ‘‘getting out of practice”’ 
through the use, of pre-digested ‘‘Grape-nuts.’’ 
The Postman doesn’t forget how to walk, merely because he rides 
home on a street car, when he is tired. 
*‘Grape-nuts’’ is Wheat, with its Energy-producing Starch, and its 
* Brain-building Phosphates, pre-digested beyond the Liver stage, ready for 
prompt assimilation and superior Brain work. 
A Government analysis proves it to be eighteen times readier for 
assimilation than Oatmeal, and thrice as dextrinated as the average Wheat food. 
This analysis will be sent free on request.
