Dear Sir;—lt has been on my mind for some 1 time now to drop you a lino about your Patent Porridge Meal. I believe you are aware I have suffered considerably from injury to thestomach from tea-tasting, and having consulted my medical adviser, he strongly recommended Porridge for breakfast, which I have taken until I heard of your Patent Porridge Meal. I may here say the Oatmeal soon caused unplea santness, sourness of the stomach, and pimples and spots, with irritation, on the surface of the body. From this I was glad to get away, and at once took to your Patent Porridge Meal. With it I find none of the irregularities com plained of above, but a most palatable Porridge, and the whole system free from unpleasantness or irritation. I can strongly recommend it, and certainly think you should do a large trade in such an'exceilent article.—Yours very truly, (Signed) FREDK. WHITEHEAD. Industrial School, Kohimarama, Auckland, June 2,1887. Mr John Lamb, Sir,—We have now been using your Patent Porridge Meal at this school for two months, and I consider it but right to inform you that we all (staff as well as boys) like it so well that I would find it a difficult matter to get them to return to using oatmeal. It is without a doubt a splendid article of diet. I may add on my representing to the Education Department in Wellington that I was using your Patent Por ridge Meal instead of Oatmoal, I received authority from Rev. Mr Habens, Secretary for Education, to continue its use in the school. —Yours faithfully. _ (Signed) GEORGE P. HOGAN, Manager. Ponsonby, Auckland, May 30,1887. Mr John Lamb. Dear Sir,—l think it a duty to let you know results of your Patent Porridge Mai on our youngest boy. He was weakly, and refused every food preparation that cou d be got, but upon getting some of yours he took to it at once, and afterwards nothing would satisfy him but this porridge. Five or six times a day is not too much for him, and seeing it being prepared cried until he got it. He is now strong and healthy, and can eat anything. Wishing you success,—l remain, yours, &c, (Signed) W. CARDER. Orphan Home, Parnell May 25,18.7. Mr John Lamb: Dear Sir,—We are greatly pleased with your Patent Porridge Mea', having, used it for some time. The children all like the Patent Porridge Meal better than anything they have had before. We thank you for supplying a long-felt want-a pure Porridge Meal, prepared so as to keep all the most valuable properties of the wheat.—l am, sir, yours truly, ■ , (Signed) E.
