In recent years scientists have proved that the value of food is meas- ured largely by its purity ; the re sult is the most stringent pure food i laws that have ever been known. One food that has stood out promi- nently as a perfectly clean and pure food and which was as pure before the enactment of these laws as it could possibly be is Quaker Oats ; I Ii i conceded by the experts to be the ideal . food for making strength of muscle and brain. The best and cheapest of i all foods. The Quaker Oats Company } ' 'is the only manufacturer of oatmeal that has satisfactorily solved the prob } lem of removing the husks and black specks which are so annoying1 when other brands are eaten.
