MR. Mellin,-Dear Sir,--It has been my intention for some months to write and tell you how very much I appreciate your splendid FOOD FOR INFANTS. My eldest boy I gave it continually, and is now two-and-a.half years of age. He is considered to be very strong and a fine boy. I send you a photo herewith, so you will be able to judge for yourself. l\Iy second was a premature birth, and was not expected to survive for months. As soon as he could take food I began giving him Mellins. at first one teaspoonful a day; now he has nine teaspoonfuls, is ten months old, and improving daily. It assimulated with my own nourishment perfectly. I have also taken:it myself-with good results. I cannot speak too highly of your preparation, and would recommend it to all and everyone. You can make whatever use you please of this letter for publication, also photo. if you would like it. Would you kindly forward me the Portrait Album of Children you mention in your advertisement, also a sample of your Biscuits, which I cannot purchase here, and greatly
oblige, " Yours sincerely. D SAMUELL
