IT IS A COOKED FOOD. By the use of high steam heat the gluten flour used is partially torrified. This is done while the flour is dry, and during the process it is in constant motion, which insures perfect cooking to every particle. Routh says (Infant Feeding, page 380) that by this process, "the starch granules are rendered more separable, the gluten is reduced to a more porous condition, readily acted on by the gastric juice, and as an aliment, therefore, is more nutritious and digestible.' IT IS A PREDICESTED FOOD. "You state that it is self-digestive as regards the conversion of insoluble starch into soluble dextrine and maltose. My experiments with it lead me to hold that this is correct." J. MILNER FOTHERGILL. IT CONTAINS NO UNCHANCED STARCH. By the peculiar process of manufacture every particle of the gluten flour is subjected to the action of the malto-diastase, and by it all the starch contained is transformed into soluble carbohydrates. Professor CARL SEILER says, "Examination has proved that all the starch granules are converted, as shown by their behavior to polarized light." NO CANE SUGAR USED. The basis of Lactated Food is the pure sugar of milk made by the improved processes of the American Milk Sugar Co. The great value of this article has been shown conclusively. Cane sugar is not used in the composition or preparation of the Food on account of its liability to cause irritation by reason of the acetic fermentation which it creates in the stomach. Milk sugar never causes this fermentation or irritation. IT IS NON-IRRITATING. By reason of the fact that Lactated Food is partially digested in process of preparation it is assimilated by the feeblest stomach, and no undigested particles pass into the bowels to irritate, and thus cause troublesome and dangerous bowel disorders. IT IS HICHLY NUTRITIOUS. The nutritive elements of Lactated Food are derived from the three great cereals, Wheat, Barley, and Oats. From the Wheat is taken the pure gluten, the most nourishing substance known for the muscles and tissues; from the Barley, all the scluble albuminoid and extractive matter resulting from the most careful malting; and from the Oat, the strengthening properties for which it is so well known. The result is a food which never disappoints, and under which the feeble child or invalid rapidly rallies. FOR CHOLERA INFANTUM. It is the chief reliance of many eminent practitioners, and it is the safest food in summer for all young or delicate children. Another important consideration is its low price, it being much more economical than other foods. We make four sizes, selling for 25 cents, 50 cents, $1.00, and $2.00. A dollar can will furnish one hundred and fifty meals for an infant. If any physician that has not yet made a trial of the Lactated Food will write us, we will send a package of our regular size, post paid, without charge, with the understanding that it will be given a careful trial as soon as possible. We shall use every precaution to maintain the high standard of this Food, and to insure perfect satisfaction to the profession in its use. WELLS, RICHARDSON & CO., Burlington, Vt.
