disease. and the wreck follows The
"leyelers" are in the bushes along the
pathway of every successful man ana
woman. and they bag the majority.
Only now and then can man stanu
out against these Jewellers and hoid
his fortune, fame and health 10 the
end.
So the Creator has use for Whisky,
Tobacco and Coffee to level down the
successful ones ard those who snow
signs OF being successful, and Keep
them back in the race, so that the
great field" (the masses) may not be
left too far behind.
And yet we must admit that same
all-wise Creator has placed 1t 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 pottage.
Il will not deaden my senses, weak
en- my grip on affairs and keep my
self cheap, common and behind in TOR
tune and fame by drugging with whis-
ky, tobacco or coffee. Life is TOO
short 1t is hard enough to win the
good things without any sort of handi-
cap, so a man is certainly fool trad
err when he trades strength, health,
money and the good things that come
with power for the half-asleep condi-
ton of the 'drugger,' with the certain
ty of sickness and disease ahead"
1t is a matter each individual must
decide for himself. He can be lead
err and semi-god if he will, or he can
go along through life drugged clown,
a cheap newer of wood or carrier OF
water"
Certain it 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
fearfully by these Jewelers."
If man tries flirting with these lev
elers a while, and gets few slaps 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 with
in" 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, happiness, peace and even
worldly prosperity-to break of the
habits and strip clean for the work
cut out for us.
1t has been the business OF the
writer to provide a practical and easy
way for people to break away from
the coffee habit and be assured Of a
return 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 re-
built on 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 color
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 two days after
the change is made before the old
stomach or bowel troubles or COM
plants of kidneys, heart, head or
nerves show unmistakable evidence
of getting better, and ten days time
changes things wonderfully.
Literally millions of brain-working
Americans to-day use Postum, having
found the value and common sense in
the change.
