And that's the testi
mony, so', many people
have given about Grape

to learn to like it.
Wheat and malted bar
ley, skilfully blended, and
slowly baked for 20 hours,
in our great, sanitary food
factories, are developed
into a natural sweetness,
richness and crispnesa
that make an immediate
appeal to the taste. The
exceptional nourishment
which Nature places in
these best of the food
grains is perfected for
complete and ready diges
tion and assimilation.
Grape-Nuts builds for
health and accomplish
ment. A delightful breakfast
or luncheon cereal, with
cream or milk (ready to
eat from the package);
delicious when made into
a pudding for dinner.
Ask your grocer to send
