Indicate a "waspy" feeling towards us
for daring to say that coffee Is harm
full to a percentage of the people.
A frank public discussion of the sub.

certainly do no harm; on the contrary
when all the facts on both sides of any
question are spread before the people
they can thereupon decide and act in

fee importer. Treat such kindly, for
they seem absolutely powerless to stop
the gradual but sure destruction Of
body and health.
Nature has way OF destroying a
part of the people to make room for
the stronger. It is the old law OF "the
survival Of the fttest" at work, and
the victims are many.
We repeat the assertion that coffee
does harm many people. not all. but
an army large enough to appal the in
vestigator and searcher for facts.
The next prevarication Of the coffee
importers and roasters is their state
ment that Postum Food Coffee Is made
of roasted peas. beans or corn, and
mixed with low grade of coffee and
that 1t contains no nourishment.
We have previously offered to wager
S100,000.00 with them that their state
ments are absolutely false.
