There's a Jteason in fact, a number of reasons.
Grape-Nuts is a concentrated food, hence a small portion goes a long way.
It is made of wheat and barley, and contains nil the nutriment of these grains,
including those invaluable mineral salts so often lacking in ordinary food, but which
are indispensable for normal growth and maintenance of body and brain. Our great
aim in originating (Irape-Xuts was to eupply this lack of mineral elements, and it
fulfills its purpose admirably.
Grape-Nuts is a delicious food, and digests quickly, generally in about one hour.
Compare this with the 2M: to 3 hours required by bread.

Your First Choice
This Month You Can Get It
Hudson will be your first choice in Light Sixes. It is
first choice with so many that demand exceeds supply.
All last summer there were thousands on our waiting
list. , But this month we can make prompt deliveries,
due to big winter output and trebled capacity.
What la true of the Hudson ia true
of tb leader in every class, aa you
know. The car that stand out as first
choice finds over-demand each sum
mer. That Is why men should choose early
before winter outputs are sold. It
saves them delay in delivery.
Sales Have Trebled
Hudson sales have trebled since this
Light Six came out. But this spring
like last spring there is likely to be a
considerable shortage of Hudsons. That
will mean you must be content with a -second-choice
car, or lose weeks of
pleasant driving. Choose now and
avoid that.
Day of Light Sixes
This, as you know, is the day of
Light Sixes. Few men who pay over
tl.100 buy any other type. Over
wclRht and over-tax Is ended, never to
return.
The Light Blx If truly light is the
highest-grade car ever built. It must
be to be staunch. It must employ much
aluminum. It must have special steels.
It must have a small-bore, high-sped
motor, which Is very economical. This
new-type car has cut tire cost and fuel
cost In two.
The Hudson is the pioneer Light Six.
It is by far the leader of this type. It
is the lightest of Its class.
It is the only one designed by Howard
E. Coffin, the creator of the Light Six
lypo. It is a finished product. Four
years have been spent in refining every
part. Every detail shows it.
It is, above all, the proved Light Six.
Over 12,000 cars are now running.
Half of them have run for two seasons,
on millions of miles of road. Any
owner will tell you the car is right.
That's a vital fact to know In any new
type car.
For all these reasons, Hudson will
be your first choice. Its beauty, its
reputation, its records will appeal to
you. Find this out, for your own sake,
while you can get a car.
