PO-TU N-SEAL.
A TRUE STORY FOR THE CHILDREN.


A tiny three year-old girl climbed up into
her chair at the breakfast table ana AFTER
having napkin pinned about her meek sur,
veyed the morning repast critically ana
finally said, in quiet, sturdy way, 4 wants:
Po'tunseal." What is 1t daughter wants
"Po'tunseal. Po'tunseal," (said with empha-
sis).
After many cOntectures, ana recaiihS tne
fact that she had been served with Httie
cup OF Postum Cereal the previous morning,
1t was decided that this was what the little
cub wanted, and when It was placed beside
her with a little cream and sugar In IL, the
charming coy pleased smile of thanks that
dimpled the plump cheeks and chin, and
looked out of the violet eyes, would have
been thanks enough to king for the gift OF
empire go ,
1t makes our hearts grow strong with the
essence of Life when we make little child
happy. and especially when we can give
them what they like TO eat or drink with the
settled knowledge that pure and nourishinG
food is being taken into the stomach, in an
attractive form TO he sure, in Postum, the
health coffee but retaining all the nutrment
and fattening qualities Of the pure cereals.
Made by the Postum Cereal Co., Limited,
Battle Creek, Mich
Just as good" as Postum Cereal are words
used to defraud the public.
