A man tv ho had appendicitis, brought on by the use of starchy food.that kept up a continual irritation of the intestinal tract, because he couldn't digest the starch, worked and experimented for about tMo years in perfecting a food in which the starch should be first changed to grape sugar (in other words, go through the first form of digestion) so that he could have the required elements of food and not suffer This was the origin of Grape-Nuts, and the man followed exactly in the line of Nature in changing the starch of the cereals into grape sugar. There are absolutely no foreign ingredients in or about Grape-Nuts.

It consists entirely and wholly of wheat and barley, containing 1 of the valuable food of these nourishing grains. The food is granular in shape, purposely made a little hard in order to bring down the digestive juices from the gums and preserve the teeth by proper use. It is softened by cream and is one of the most delicious dishes ever placed on the table. We unhesitatingly say, and the statement will be verified by the great majority of physicians all over the world, that Grape-Nuts is the most scientifically prepared food in existence. Made for a purpose, it accomplishes its purpose.

It furnishes the system the valuable, much needed carbohydrates, the elements that make brain, nerve and brawn, and it is presented ia a form ready for immediate and easy digestion. It can be handled by the weak est stomachs. It Is used by thousands of mothers for infant's food, and by athletes for their nourishment. It requires no cooking, having been thoroughly and skillfully cooked by expert bakers. It is ready lor immediate It is economical, for but four heaping teaspoonfuls are required for the cereal portion of the meal.

This does not mean make your entire meal of four heaping tea-spoonfuls of Grape-Nuts it means that is the proper amount for that part of the meal, and you may depend upon it the system will absorb more valuable nourishment from that four heaping teaspoonfuls than from many time: the weight of other food. It is particularly intended to take the place of the quantities of white bread now in too free use by most families. Our remarks on white bread may displease some, but we stand for a principle in this matter and know exactly whereof we speak. There are on file in our office not hundreds but thousands of letters from people in all parts of the world giving descriptions of distress, disease, and ill-health from the use of improper food, and detailing the health and comfort that has come from a rearrangement of their diet along our lines. We adTise for breakfast a little fruit, cooked or raw, a dish of Grape-Nuts and cream, two soft boiled eggs and a cup of Pos-tum Coffee.

Let it go at that. At the mid-day meal repeat, ddding a little slice of meat, if thought best. At night have a good, generous mixed meal with a dessert made from one of the many recipes in the Grape-Nuts book found in each package. Postura Cereal Battle Creek. Mich.

na't Try to Core Hemorrhoids with External Aoplleatioa. When It Is such a well known fact that hemorrhoids or piles la a disease originating in the morbid dilatation of the veins of the lower part of the rectum, it seems incredible that people afflicted with this painful trouble should go on doctoring with external salves and washes, when the disessed parts can only be reached by an Inward application. The suppositories used In Pyramid Pile Cure are composed of the most soothing and healing oils and lotions known to Materia Medics, and act on the diseased veins and surrounding tissues like magic, giving almost Instant relief. The dilated blood vessels are relieved, the irritation of the mucous meiubrane ceases and bleediiig is stopped. The predisposing causes of piles are such as produce fullness of the hemorrhoidal veins and impede the return of blood from them, such as constipation, sedentary habits, city life, pregnancy, corsets, in fact tne causes are aii fully covered in a very interesting little book published by the Pyramid Drug Marshall, and the same will lie sent free to any address upon application.

The general principles of treatment are, according to the evident causes, active habits, attention to diet, and other hygienic rules, avoidance of constipation and each night the injection of a Pyramid suppository to heal and cure the afflicted parts. That this treatment has been effective is instanced by the testimony of thousands of people who have been permanently cured and by the evidence of druggists; the case of Mr. Samuel Gouldie 628 Moyamensiug Philadelphia, is a fair sample. "For twelve long years I suffered terrible torture from piles. I had been under two snnrical operations, ore in Cleveland, Ohio, In the year lfm, and once In Toledo, Ohio, in lii0, and also tried a number of salves and olntmentn from different doctors.
