1t is sometimes interesting to watch
the curves imitators make to get the
public to buy limitations of genuine
goods.
Every now and then some one will
think there Is a splendid opening to
fix up something like Postum Coffee
and advertise the same way and take
some of the business.
An imitator is naturally ignorant OF
food values and how to skillfully
make cereal coffee, on scientific
lines.
Such men first think of preparing
something that looks and tastes like
the original, with no knowledge OF
how the grains should be treated to
prepare them SO that the starchy part
is transformed properly and the val
liable nourishing elements made di-
gestible.
Such limitations may be foisted on
the public for a short time, but the
people are critical and soon detect the
attempt, then the imitators go out OF
business

factories have been started in various
