A UNIVERSAL FOOD.

Following Nature's Footsteps.

"I have a boy, two years old, weighing forty pounds and in perfect health who has been raised on GrapeNuts and milk.

"This is an ideal food and evidently furnishes the elements necessary for a baby as well as for adults. We have used Grape-Nuts in large quantities and greatly to our advantage." F. W. Leavitt, Minneapolis, Minn.

One advantage about Grape-Nuts Food is that it is pre-digested in the process of manufacture; that is, the starch contained in the wheat and barley is transformed into grape-sugar in exactly the same method as this process is carried out in the human body, that is by the use of moisture and long exposure to moderate warmth, which grows the diastase in the grains and makes the remarkable change from starch to grape sugar. Therefore, the most delicate stomach can handle Grape-Nuts and the food is quickly absorbed into the blood and tissue, certain parts of it going directly to building and nourishing the brain and nerve centers. Made at the pure food factories of the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich.

The Light Nuisance

in your home is utterly and entirely unnecessary. It is absurd to struggle along with a smoky, troublesome, unreliable and expensive method of illumination, when we can demonstrate very easily that it is possible to secure illumination with none of these faults. There is perhaps no problem of the home more persistently worrisome than that of illumination, and as we have solved the question for so many people, we should like to send you our booklet W, which tells all about the best light in the world. It's free for the asking.

Thirty-one large quarto volumes, 25,000 pages.

It has been nine times enlarged and brought down to date, reaching a grand climax in its present 31-volume form.

Better, because it contains much matter and thousands of biographies not found in the Edinburgh edition.

More desirable, because it is brought down twelve years later.
