20 LBS. AT SEVENTY,
Left on Coffee and Made a RemarIsa-
BILE Gain in Health.

N. Fl. Baldwin of Laconia N. H.. Is
seventy years old and has gained twenty
pounds since 1898. A letter says: 81 drank
imported coffee because 1 needed some
thing warm with my meals. While 1 was
using coffee I was thin in flesh and nerv-
GUS with stomach trouble as well IS bowel
and kidney trouble. 1 left off coffee In
1893, taking Postum Food Coffee in its
place.
81 was fortunate in the first trial of
Postum, when ii was well made by the
wife of a groceryman, who had used IL

1T speaks pretty well for the food value
OF the Postum Food Coffee, for a person
seventy years old TO gain weight at that
age. Not only that, but the old trouble
with the stomach kidneys and bowels has
disappeared"

The speakers to-day were Hon. John Fl
r.. Pitbdn OF New Orleans, r. b. Thurber

Mr.. Thurber spoke of wilder Markets
and How TO Get Them" He said in part:
There are 1,440,0 100000 people on the
earth, Of which we have 100000, but
they are the most Ingenious energetic
and progressive people on the face of the
earth. We make literally thousands of
articles SO much more useful and con-
venent for the purposes of mankind than
those which they have been using that all
we have TO do is to show our goods and
the world will buy them.
"As a rule, the same methods which are
successful in developing a home market
will be successful abroad. Show your
goods and advertise them. First catch
the eye, then appeal to the reason" OF
course, this must be done by competent
representatives in the language of the
country. Ever since the confusion of
tongues at the Tower Of Babel diversity
of languages has been barrier to COM
merce. We must teach modern languages
in high schools and educate our young
