CHILD WRECKS,


one of the most Divine traits in
mankind is the love for and care OF
the little folks. To furnish them good
nOurishing food is to supply the
wherewith to build the little bodies
into healthy and sturdy men and
women. Parents who thoughtlessly
give coffee to growing children win
see the day when they would give
anything on earth to be rid of the
regret for the weakness and frequent
sick spells OF the children, caused
by the allkaloids of coffee. Give the
children Postum Food Coffee. the fam
Gus food drink, which goes directly 10
nourish and strengthen child or adult.
and when In after days you glory IN
their strength and ability. you can re-
member with pride that your intell-
gcnse and care about the food and
drink in their childhood made the stur-
dy men and women they are. 1t IL
criminal to be careless. II pays well
to give children nourishins liquid food
like Postum.
