DR. RIDGE’S PATENT FOOD, FOR INFANTS AND INVALIDS, Recommended by the Faculty,
The PATENT FOOD is so carefully and scientifically prepared, that it is immensely superior to Arrowroot, Sago, Tapioca, Bread, Biscuit, Corn Flour, or any other kind of farinacious food for Infants, not alone from its purity, strength, and great nourishing properties, but also from its having been PECULIARLY and THOROUGHLY cooked in its manufacture, which renders it more easily digestible. It cannot cause Acidity or Wind.
It is very agreeable, and, from the nature of its composition, is exactly adapted to all conditions of the stomach. It can be made ready for use without trouble in two or three minutes.
Mixed in Beef Tea, Milk, or any other fluid, the PATENT FOOD is pre-eminently suited to INVALIDS, from its wholesome and strengthening qualities. It is a real blessing, and from its remarkable cheapness accessible to all.
One Trial will prove its efficacy. It will recommend itself.
Sold in Canisters, 4d., 8d., and 1s. each,
With clear and full Directions both for Infants and Invalids. The largest contains four of the smallest.
None Genuine without the Signature of the Patentee,
