The surest sign of worms in children is
paleness, lack of interest in plav, fretful
-«iess, variable appetite, picking at the
nose and sudden starting in sleep. When

•WHOLE GRAIN WHEAT CO.,
CHICAGO, ILL.
Gentlemen:
“For 7 months I was treated by a physician for acid of
the stomach and 1 could eat only light diets. A bite of fresh
bread or fruit would make me so sick that it was neccessary for
me to go to bed. I have been taking WHOLE GRAIN
WHEAT for three weeks every morning and nlg’ht before
. meals and 1 am feeling tine and can eat anything to satisfy
my taste.”
Mrs. Emma Hetessy,
3511 Wilton Ave.
This potent food is the natural wheat berry (the only sin
gle food known to man which contains in balanced combina
tion all the sixteen elements required each day for normal nu
trition) in its whole form just as it comes from Nature’s lab
oratory with nothing added and nothing taken away, and is
■wheat in its supreme nutritional effect, because it is the first
wheat civilized man ever ate that has been cooked readv to
serve without oxidation, distillation, or evaporation effects,
the method of cooking being protected by the United States
and Canadian Governments. It is not whole wheat flour, blit
is a food after the form of peas and beans, and more potent
in its nutritional effect than any cooked food ever before pro
duced, because the cooking has not demineralized nor oxidiz
x-d its mineral constituents.
It is never sold through grocery stores but only through
•authorized distributor. It comes in hermetically sealed san
itary 11-ounce tins (ample for four servings) and is sold in
packages ot not Jess than one dozen (a 24-day supply because
regular u se is essential to results) delivered for $2.00. Guaran
