This may sound like physi ology, but it works like hculih. Hunger Not Cheated All the richness of the ker nel, together with essential mineral elements, are retained in the making of Grape-Nuts. Often, in the manufacture of foods, some of the most vital of nature's provisions are thrown away. The long baking process (Grape-Nuts is the result of 20 hours continuous baking) partially pre-digests the food substances, develops the starches into dextrin and mal tose giving to Grape-Nuts its own natural sweetness and produces a food which, when served with milk or cream, has been found by chemists to be almost per fectly balanced i.1 qualities of nutrition.

It is unusually nutritious, for it has all the bady-buildingelemerrtsof tha most perfect food grains. It is a convenient and econom ical food, for it is ready to eat from the package, keeps in my climata, and is appetiz ing to the last bit. It builds strength and vigor without taxing the digestion or leaving, within the body, elements whose familiar harm is really the beginning of "old age." Grape-Muts has been favorite food, around the world, for nearly a" quarter cfea century 0 And there is a reason! o
