The general reader seldom cares much for the details of .scraps."
A few .may have rea lately some articles attacking us and may
be interested in the following: . .. .' .
Some -time ago a disagreement
endorsed our foods by letter, but
vivertising, to which we objected.
The "Weekly" discontinued inserting our advertisements while
they were negotiating for some changes they wanted in the word
ing and shape of the advertisements, and during this correspondence
our manager; gave instructions to our; Advertising Department to
quit advertising altogether in that "Weekly." ' -
Quite a time after the advertising had been left out, an editorial
attack came. We replied in newspapers and the scrap was on.
Then came libel suits from both sides, and some harsh words.
Generally tiresome to the public
That "Weekly" has attacked many prominent men and repu
table manufacturers. -f
Our Company seems prominent enough for a sensational
writer to go after, hunt for some little spot to criticise, then distort, ..
twist and present it to the public under scare heads.
Distortion No. 1 stated tHfcw hive)
been accustomed to advertise Urape-JNuta
and Postma as ''cure-alls for everything."
. It has never been the policy of this
Company to advertise Grape-Nuts or Pm
turn to cafe anything.

Sndigestible food that has been used is

place.
Charge No. 2 state; that the psMg
of the National Foed ft. Dtttf A6t com

assertions reard& the nutritive value
of GrapNttU.
We ave" never been ""compelled" to
make any change.
Since the betpnnino: It. has been a ttniver
sal rule to print clearly, on every package
exactly what the contents, are made JL
Before the pass&ae of the Pure Food
Law the packages stated that Grape-Nuts
food was made of wheat and barlev.
We did not esteem the small amount
of salt and yeast as of value enough to
speak of, but after the new Law came
in we became as technical as the 6ffi-
cials at Washington and added the Words
"veast" and "sal
sdt,"
although we
have
no recollection
of being asked to.
We believed that our statement that
Grape-Nuts" will supply elements to nour
ish the brain and nerve center is true
and bring authorities to support the fact.
Some state chemists believed "this a
gross exaggeration and inasmuch as the
Food Dept. at Washington could easily
harass grocers, pending, a trial on the
disputed question, we concluded that
much the better way would be 'to elim
inate from our packages such claims,
however certain we may be that the
claims are true. j
Another statement objected to read as
follows:
"The system will absorb a greater
amount of nourishment from one pound
of Grape-Nuts than from ten pounds of
meat, wheat, oats, or bread." v
Some Department chemists deceive
themselves as well as the public.
"Caloried" is the word which defines a
unit of beat determined by the amount
necessary to raise one kilogram of water
one degree centigrade. On this basis a
table of calories is prepared showing the
percentage of different . kinds of food.
Butter shows 8.60 1-. Grape-Nuts ,8.96;
milk 0.70. Remember the statement on
the package spoke of the nourishment the
system would absorb, but "did not speak of
the calories of -heat contained in it,-for
the heat is not. nourishment, and - the
nourishment cannot be judged by the
number of heat units, notwithstanding
the fact that certain chemists Would have
the public believe so.
As an illustration: Attempt" to feed a.
man sixty , days on butter alone, with its
8.60 calories'. The man- would die be
fore the experiment had run sixty days.
Then,-take Grape-Nuts " with 3.98 and
milk with 0.70, the two combined equal
4.66 about one-half the number of calo
ries contained in butter. - The man fed for
sixty, days on this tooa wouia pe weu
nourished, and could live not only sixty

These testimonials were demanded by
the opposing lawyers. Naturally this
demand was refused, for they are held in
vaults and kept safe to prove the ,trath,
and are not to be delivered up on demand
of enemies. . .

fact. that we hever printed a single testi

letter back of. Many of these letters
came spontaneously. A record was kept
of twelve hundred and four (1204) let
ters received in one month from, people
who wrote that they had either entirely
recovered their health or been benefited
by following our suggestions on food
and beverages.
On three or four occasions in the past
ten or twelve years we printed broadcast
in papers offers of prises to users xt
Postum and Grape-Nuts, two hundred
$ 1.00 prizes, one hundred , $2.00, twenty,
of $5.00 and five of $10.00 each. BtHnt
that each must be an honest, lettcrwith
name and address. We agreed not to pub
names, but to furnish them to en
quirers by letter. These letter writers
very generally answered those who wrote
to them, and verified the truth of the
statements. ,
Under this agreement not to publish
names . literally scores of letters, cams
from doctors. We kept our word and
neither printed ' their names or surren

Notice the statement in this charge:
The..osily famous physician whose name

. The truth is, this Dr. Underwood was
one of a great many physicians who have
hot- only written commendatory words
about the value of our foods, but every
now and then' some physician writes an
article on coffee or on food, and sends-it
to us with .a . suggestion . of .compensation
for his. itime and -inedical knowledge.

physicians in' -pur own business;' ? we oc
casionally -empioved . a doctor to write

the article be an honest expression of his

.'The "Weekly" hunted up this physician,
and because he seemed to be poor, jind
as it says, fTirokendown," had him
brought ti-Court to be: exposed before a
