Please remember we never say ordi-
nary coffee hurts everyone.
Some people use it regularly and seem
strong enough to withstand its attacks,
but there is misery and disease in store
for the man or woman who persists in
its use when nature protests, by heart
weakness, stomach and bowel troubles
kidney disease, weak eyes, or general
nervous prostration. The remedy is OBJ
vious. The drug caffeine, contained in
all ordinary coffee, must be discontinued
absolutely or the disease will continue in
spite of any medicine and will grow
worse.
1t is easy to leave off the old-fashioned
coffee by adopting Postum Food Coffee,
for in it one finds pleasing hot break
fast or dinner beverage that has the deep
seal brown color, changing to a rich
golden brown when good cream is added.
When boiled long enough (l5 minGteS)
the flavor is not that of rank Rio coffee
but very like the mildcr, smooth and
high grade Java, but entirely lacking
the drug effect of ordinary coffee.

journal. Esperanto is a pleasant the
ory upon which to speculate, but it
is hard to conceive of a Frenchman
or an Englishman or a German or
any others of the list giving up the
cherished language of his fatherand
for that to which no sentiment at

no flag, no country and no literature.
AS stated by Prof. Whitney, "One uni

community, is not an absurdity or
theoretic impossibility but only a
Ut2pian or millennial dream"

We repeat the assertion that coffee

army large enough to appal the investi-

The next prevarication of the coffee
importersand roasters is their statement
that Postum Food Coffee is made of
roasted peas, beans or corn, and mixed
with a low grade of coffee and that it
contains no nourishment.

The Coffee Debate.

The published statements of a number
of coffee importers and roasters indicate
a "waspy" feeling towards us, for daring
to say that coffee is harmful to percent
age of the people.
A frank public discussion of the sub
ject is quite agreeable to us and can GER
tainly do no HARM on the contrary, when
all thefacts on both sides of any question
are spread before the people they can
thereupon decide and act intelligently

We make the assertion advisedly and
suggest that the reader secure his own
proof by personal inquiry among coffee
users.
Ask your coffee drinking friends if
they keep free from any sort of aches

place the cause of disorder on something
aside from coffee. whether food, inherit

Birth Abraham Convention In New
York

The twentieth national convention of the
Independent Order Birth Abraham began
In New York yesterday with several hun
dred delegates in attendance. Nominations
for the various offices were made during
the day and will be voted on later Grand
Master Max Stern was renominated with
out opposition. For first deputy grand
master Max Schmidt was nominated with
out an opponent the same being true of
Grand Secretary Jacob Schoen and Endow-
ment Treasurer Henry Katcneim. Samuel
Weidorf, grand master of the old order OF.
Birth Abraham delivered an address, In
which he said the two orders of Birth Abra-
ham are working together in harmony
He advocated making the orders truly Jew
ish and taking up all Jewish movements
wherever found. He declared that this was
the only way to interest the young Jew
He concluded: There are few gentlemen
down in Washington who think they repre-
sent all the Jews in this country and they
go to the President and tell him so. And
he thinks they do and he gives them what
ever they want. But asks your
order, which represents $4,000 Jews in this
country, what you think about It, because
you don't ask yourselves. You haven't
shown any interest"
