I'm told it's made from barley, rye, wheat,
beans, and peas;
Name a thousand other things-but the
RIGHT ONE if you please
But with the Cotfee-men I will not hold con-

For the many, many things they say-too
numerous too mention.

To learn the current wholesale price of

Some say theirs the only brand that will
stand a ready test.
Now try a little OF them all-see which you
