gence, luxury, idleness, waste, de-
bauchery, disease, and the wreck fol-
! lows. The Jewelers." are in the bushes
along the pathway of every successful
man and woman and they bag the ma,
jority.
Only now and then can a man stand
out against these 'levelers" and hold
| his fortune, fame and health to the
| end
So the Creator has use for Whiskey,
| Tobacco and Coffee to level down the
successful ones and those who show
signs Of being successful, and keep
them back in the race, so that the
great field" (he masses) may not be
J left too far behind.
And yet we must admit that same
! all wise Creator has placed it in the
| power Of man to stand upright,
| clothed in the armor of a clean cut,
| steady mind and say unto himself, Il
decline to exchange my birthright for
mess of potage."
! Il will not deaden my senses, weak
| en- my grip on affairs and keep myself
| cheap, common and behind in fortune
and fame by drugging with whiskey,
tobacco or coffee; life is too short. 1t
is hard enough to win the good things,
without any sort of handicap, so a
man is certain q "fool trader" when
he trades strength, health, money, and
the good things that come with power,
for the half-asleep condition of the
''drugger" with the certainty of sick
ness and disease ahead.
1t is matter each individual must
decide for himself. He can be a leader
and semi-god if he will, or he can go
along through life a drugged clown,
cheap "hewer of wood or carrier Of
water
Certain 1T is that while the Great
Father of us all does not seem to
mind if some of his children are
foolish and stupid, He seems to select
others perhaps those He intends for
some special work. and allows them to
be threshed and castigated most fear
fully by these Jewelers."
If a man, tries flirting with these
as a hint, he had better take the hint
or a good solid blow will follow.
When a man tries to live upright,
clean, thrifty, sober, and undrugged,
manifesting as near as he knows what
the Creator intends he should, happi-
ness, health and peace seem to come to
him. Does it pay?
This article was written to set peo-
pie thinking, to rouse the God within"
for every highly organized man and
woman has times when they feel a
something calling from within for them
to press to the front and 'be about the
Fathers business" don't mistake it;
the spark of the Infinite is there and
it pays in every way, health, happi-
ness, peace, and even worldly prosper
ity, to break off the habits and strip
clean for the work cut out for US.
1t has been the business Of the
writer to provide practical and easy
way for people to break away from
the coffee habit and be assured of re-
turn to health and all of the good
things that brings, provided the abuse
has not gone too far, and even then the
cases where the body has been rebuilt
on a basis Of strength and health run
into the thousands.
1t is an easy and comfortable step to
stop coffee instantly by having we'll
made Postum Food Coffee served rich
and hot with good cream, for the col
or and flavor is there, but none of the
caffeine or other nerve destroying ele-
ments of ordinary coffee.
On the contrary, the most powerful
rebuilding elements furnished by Ma
ture are in Postum and they quickly
set about repairing the damage. Sell
dom is it more than 2 days after the
change is made before the old stomach
or bowel troubles or complaints Of
kidneys, heart, head or nerves show
unmistakable evidence of getting bet
ter and ten days time changes things
wonderfully.
Literally millions of brain working
Americans today use Postum, having
found the value and common sense in
the change. G. w. POST.
