What Kind of a Day
Do You Wish Yourself?
Suppose you could make a wish at the
breakfast table and finally have the wish come
true. Would you say,
"I want this to be a good day," or "I am
willing for thiB day to drag along?"
If you keep on wishing your days with the
food you eat, finally the wish is likely to come
true.
Grape-Nuts helps your wish for a good day.
Nothing miraculous; just the natural result from
right food with the right taste.
There is a charm of flavor and crispness
in Grape-Nuts that is like the smile of a good
friend at the breakfast table
And Grape-Nuts, with cream or milk (fresh
or tinned), is fully nourishing feeding the tissues
and glands, the bone and blood, with just those
elements which Nature requires building
strength without any "heaviness."
Grape-Nuts is the perfected goodness of
wheat and malted barley, scientifically developed
ready to eat from the package. A Grape-Nuts
breakfast or lunch is a practical wish for good luck.

When a Federal Bureau reminds
you that children should not
drink coffee or teawhy not think
of your own health?
The Federal Bureau of Education Includes
in its rules to promote health among the Nation's
school children, the warning that children should
not drink coffee or tea.
The reason is well known. Coffoe and tea
contain drugs which stimulate) and often over
excito the nerves, and so upset health.
The harm Is by no means confined to chil
dren, as any doctor can toll you.
If health is valuable to childhood, It Is valu
