Do you discriminate at the dining
table or are you thoughtless?
In thousands of homes,
a "line" is drawn at the
breakfast table. Tea or
coffee is served for
"grown-ups" and Postum
for children. But serne
parents do not discrimin-
ate. -Tannin and caffeine,
the injurious contents of
tea and coffee, seriously
retard the development of
the delicate nerve tissues
in children.
Consequently, instead
of rich, satisfying Postum,
children are over stimu-
lated by the drugs in tea
and coffee; and so may
grow up irritable and
nervous. Any doctor can
tell you that this is a
great evil and should be
corrected.
• Although some par-
ents feel a certain justifi-
cation 'for the personal
indulgence in tea or coffee,
yet the harm to them may
be equally seriOus. It
• may take a little while
longer for the drugs in
tea and coffee to affect
an older person, but in
many cases the nervous
system and allied bodily
functions will, become
weakened. The surest
way to avoid such pos-
sibilities is toquit tea and
coffee entirely and drink
Postum instead. The
change permits you to
get sound, restful sleep.
Postutn is the well-
known, meal -time bev-
erage. Like thousands of
others you will like it be-
cause, in flavor it is rich
and satisfying.
Do away with the dis-
tinction at the table.
Serve delicious Postum,
piping hot, toall thefamily.
One week's trial and it is
likely that s'bu'll never
return to tea or coffee.
Postum comes in two
forms: Instant Postum (in tins)
made instantly in the cup by
the addition of boiling water.
Postum Cereal (in packages of
larger bulk, for those who pre-
fer to make the drink while the
meal is being prepared) made'
by boiling for 20 minutes.

Easy Finance.
There are some persons who call
themselves '"financiers" whose meth-
ods are not essentially different from
that of the small boy who went into
the house the other morning and
showed his mother a handful of pen-
nies.
"Look, ma, what I've got!" he ex-
claimed.
"Why," replied his astonished moth-
er, "where did you get them, Harold?"
"Found 'em down at the corner," re-
turned the young hopeful. "They were
brine on a pile of newspapers in the
doorway of Jones's store." And he
put them into this pocket with the air
of one quite satisfied with himself.
The Scottish George Washington.
Whenever the Americans try their
boasting against a Scotsman, they are
at once hard-pressed to get the best of
the erose -talk.
A Scotsman and an American were
talking one day on a ship.
"In New York," said. the American,
"we've certainly got a fine lot of young
men!"
"Nae doot," said the Scotsman, "A
lot of oor laddies have been emigratin'
lately."
The American frowned, and thought
awhile. Then he said, in a sarcastic
voice:
"George Washington was, no Scots-
man, and George Washington could
not tell a lie!"
"Ou, ay!" the Scot retorted, "A
Scotsman could, but he wouldn't."
Better to be email and shine than
to be great and cast a shadow.
The least we should do with aur
smallest opportunity is to make the
most of it.
