MRS. JAMES e. BUTLER,
Sheridan, Mich.
The Minister'S Wife.

One day his attention was brought to
the fact that the unsrspected coffee was
very likely the cause of his trouble, and
ii was suggested that if he would use
Postum Food Coffee and induce the good
wife to be particular to boil 1t long
enouehsto Iextract the delicious flavor
and the elements which go to rebuild the
broken down nerve centres, his trouble
would be gone.
This was two years and half ago, and
since that time not pound of coffee has
been purchased by the minister's family.
Morning, noon and night Postum makes
its appearance on the table, and is en-
joyed by all. With the departure of
coffee went the minister's bad feelings
and with the coming of Postum, came a
feeling of exhilaration, better appetite
and constantly increasing weight.
From theestart, the minister's Postum
has been properly made, because of the
warning.
At one time during the absence OF
housewife, the domestic, not being par
ticular about preparing Postum accord
ing to directions. made it weak and in
sipid, which we find is a very comm on
complaint among those who do not un-
derstand that there is no way to extract
the delicious flavor from Postum except
by long boiling. Made properly. it is
clear, black and hasa crisp. pungent.
fascinating taste. Occasionally the min
lister has been induced to drink cup of
coffee at weddings, parties. ETC., but
many sleepless hours of the night
are passed in consequence. This is q true
experience.

No prettier play has ever found It's way

the same inviIing atmosphere as Mr.
Barrie's book. and one readily imagines
himself in the now famous village of
Tbrums. with its picturesque surround
iugs ana its remarkable, interesting peo-
pIe. The love story which MIR. Barrie has
told in "The Little Minister" is Of course
the secret of it's wonderful success.
