"JUST LIKE PAPA. "
Children Glad to Have Their Coffee Like
the Parents.

More than any of the old folks realize,
the little folks at the table like to have
food and drink the same as Father and
Mother.
Perhaps you can remember the time
when a fork full of the meat or potato
or sip from the cup that your Father
or Mother was using seemed to possess
some remarkable merit and favor.
If children can be given strong, nour-
ishing food drink such as Postum Food
Coee it more than satisfies their desire
to have things like the older folks. and
at the same time gives them a drink
they love and fatten on.
A lady up in Cakes, N. D., says that
since their family have been drinking
Postum the children are stronger and
better than ever before, and are SO glad
to think they can have coffee to drink
just like papa"
The husband and father was taken
sick with a very severe attack of
stomach trouble and had to give up work
being confined to the house for some
weeks, suffering greatly. For some
time he had been in the habit OF drinking
coffee for breakfast, and tea for dinner
and supper The wife writes After
reading some of your advertisements we
wondered if coffee and tea had not been
the cause of his sickness
We finally decided to have him quit
tea and coffee and try Postum Food Cot
fee. He dates his recovery from the day
he commenced to drink Postum ana

now that it was because did not make

OPPOSES CREMATION.
Bruchesi Deplores Action
of Canadian Legislature.


Montreal. April 1O.-A pastoral letter
from Archbishop Bruchesi has been read
in all the Roman Catholic churches OF
this diocese land interesting references
were made in it to the recent decision
in the Delpit case and to the action OF
the legislature in granting to the Mount
Royal Cemetery the power to cremate
bodies in place of burying them, if so
desired. As to the former, the archbishop
merely re-states the attitude of the
church on mixed or irregular marriages.
which cannot be affected by the 1udg-
ment Of civil tribunals and warns all
communicates not to offend at the risk
of severe ecclesiastical penalties.
With respect to cremation the arch
bishops declaration is Of greater interest,
since he virtually censured the legis-
lature for granting the request of the
Mount Royal Cemetery company, which
is a protestant organization. The arch
bishop cited the rulings of the church on
the subject, quoting Pope Leo Kills
ter to the bishops in May, 1886, and
Cardinal Richards vigorous denuncia-
ton in a pastoral letter of February
1890 The archbishop, after these quota
lions, continued:
I'VE hesitate not to assert that the in
PRODUCTION of this practice Of crema ton
into our city of Monera1 is regrettable.
Does the tolerance of creeds opposed to
ours, or does the respect due to the free
dom of worship justify it2 Assuredly
not, since it is not included in the ritual
Of any church, and since 1t was not ask
ed for by any religious denomination
but by mere civil company. Does a So
called respect for individual liberty af-
feet it2 But who is there that does not
see whittier that principle must lead US?
Individual liberty thus understood, is a
source of communism, socialism and
anarchy; it IS the negation of all truth,
order and justice"
