who said that the con densed milk on which I had fed it had ruined the childs stomach One of the doctors told me that the only thing to do would be to try Grape Nuts so I got some and prepared it as follows I soaked iy2 tablespoonfuls in one pint of cold water for half an hour then I strained off the liquid and mixed 12 teaspoonfuls of this strain ed Grape Nuts juice with six teaspoon fuls of rich milk put in a pinch of salt and a little sugar warmed it and gave it to baby every two hours In this simple easj way I saved babys life and have built her up to a strong healthy child rosy and
