NOTED ELEPHANT HUNTER.

It is probably not known to the people of this country that some years ago Captain Sanderson, the famous elephant hunter who had charge of the elephant service of the entire British army in India, and who spent many years of his life in the jungles of Northern India hunting the elephant, came to this country a few years ago for the express purpose of visiting the Battle Creek, Mich., Sanitarium, to become better acquainted with the dietetic principles of that great establishment.

Captain Sanderson is without doubt the greatest hunter who has ever lived since Nimrod, at least, and perhaps he exceeded even that "mighty hunter," for on one occasion, with the assistance of an army of three or four hundred men, he captured 124 elephants at a single catch in one of his enormous stockades.

The captain was a genius in his line, but the utter neglect to care for his health, and long residence among the germs of India, made him a prey to malarial fever to such an extent that he was utterly disqualified for service. Having heard of the famous Battle Creek, Mich., Sanitarium and its ideas respecting diet, he made a trial of some of the cereal foods recommended at this establishment, and was so much benefited that he obtained leave of absence and came to this country to visit this world-famous institution and to become better acquainted with the principles taught there. He entered the cooking-school of the Sanitarium, and made himself thoroughly familiar with the dietetic principles upon which its success is so largely based. By making Granola and the other health foods manufactured by the Battle Creek Sanitarium Health Food Co., his principal dietary, he was enabled to return to the jungle, and afterward reported that so long as he adhered to these wonderful health-imparting products, he was able to live there as well as anywhere, and wholly free from the fevers which previously rendered his life miserable and threatened to cut short his existence. Numerous other travelers in Africa, India, China, and South America have employed, with equally good results, Granola, one of the principal products of this company, which may now be obtained from leading grocers throughout the country, and which ought to be in use in every household.

Granola is subjected to a process which converts the starch into dextrin, giving it a rich, nutty flavor and three times the food elements of beef.

Each package bears a picture of the Battle Creek, Mich., Sanitarium.

Readers of the SIGNS who will send the name of a grocer who does not sell Granola, to the Sanitarium Health Food Co., Battle Creek, Mich., will secure a free sample.
