Grape-Nuts contains all the nutris ment of those best of the field grains, wheat and barley, including the vital mineral elements, and it is a wonderful food for building and sustaining health and strength. The delicious flavor and crispness of‘Grape-Num make it a welcome dish whenever you’re hungry. : 'Grape:Nuts rerams “There’s a Reason” be- ?Bilipsbomw g FINEHORSE SHOW | AT ROCKVILLE FAIR G.0.P. a{nd Democratic Sen- atorial Aspirants Will Speak Tomorrow.
