HEALTH AND NOURISHMENT.
« A NUTRITIOUS FOOD. The superiority of Gilbert's Cornflour for nursery and sick-room purposes has long been recognised by the medical profession, and the heads of the hospitals and health institutions of the United States, and promises very shortly to establish a similar j reputation here. This superiority arises from the methods of its preparation at the factory, the process separating—by specially | patented machinerythe nutritious portion ; of the corn from the horny and indigestible shell. Manufactured in this way, Gilbert's j Cornflour is an excellent substitute for the | best Bermuda arrowroot, being equally wholesome and delicate in flavour, whilst its cost is considerably less. It has long been known thai insufficient attention has been paid to the ingredients of the cheaper classes of cornflour, the result being a compound satisfactory in appearance, but really as devoid of nourishment and difficult of digestion as a similar quantity of sawdust. For puddings, custards, &c., Gilbert's Cornflour has no equal, and wherever used will bo found preferable to every other brand, for ease of digestion, sustaining properties, and delicacy of flavour. Ask for Gilbert's and until you have tried Jt buy no other, If your grocer has not got it, ask him to get it for you, and do not accept as a substitute any inferior article, because it cost him a halfpenny pound less, Gilbert's cornflour, in addition to its special fitness for the sickroom and nursery, is the best for puddings, custards, cakes, &c. It is in Use in the best Caft§s and Hotels the world over, and all we ask for it is a comparision with the Best Brand in the market, and know from experience that every trial secures it the highest appreciation. • ARTHUR HEATHER, WholebaLk Aqent, AUCKLAND.
