"BOO-HOO" Shouts a Spanked Baby.

ods, has not made itself more ridicu- lous than any comment of ours could make it.
 Does Golfers expect to regain any self-inflicted loss of prestige by de monstrating thru suits for damages, that it can be more artful in evading liability for libels than the humble but resentful victims of it's defamation, or does it hope for starting a campaign of libel suits to silence the popular in- dignation, reproach and resentment which it has aroused.
 Golfers can not dodge this public controversy by private law suits. It can not postpone the public judgment against it. That great jury, the Pub lie, will hardly blame us for not wait ing until we get petit jury in court room, before denouncing this prod igal detractor of institutions founded and fostered either by individuals or by the public, itself.
 No announcements during our entire business career were ever made claiming medicinal effects" for either Postum or Grape-Nuts. Medicinal eff fleets are results obtained from the use of medicines.
 Thousands of visitors go thru our entire works each month and see for themselves that Grape-Nuts contains absolutely nothing but wheat, barley and little salt; Postum absolutely nothing but wheat and about ten per cent of New Orleans Molasses. The art of preparing these simple ele- ments in scientific manner to obtain the best food value and flavor, re- quired some work and experience to acquire.
 Now, when any publication goes far enough out of it's way to attack us be- cause our advertising is medical" it simply offers a remarkable exhibition of ignorance or worse.
 We do claim physiological or bodily results of favorable character follow ing the adoption of our suggestions re- garding the discontinuance of coffee and foods which may 1@ be keeping the individual in good health. We have no advice to offer Unexpectedly healthful person. His orsher health is evidence in itself that the bever- ages and foods usal exactly fit that | person. Therefore, WhNs change? But to the mapEaf sS9naRN who is ailing, we have son tQ. " as a result of an unusually 1e 6S krience in food and the result Q dRHR fed ing.
 In the palpably ignorant sph us in Golfers. appeared tMlS tate ment,-"One widely circulated bara l graph labors to induce the impression that Grape-Nuts will obviate the ne cessity of an operation in appendi citis. This is lying and potentially deadly lying"
 l In reply to this exhibition of-wel let the reader name it, the Postum Go. says:
 Let it be understood that appendi citis results from long continued dis 1 turbance in the intestines, caused pri ] marily by undigested starchy food

such as white bread, potatoes, rice, partly cooked cereals and such.
 Starchy food is not digested in the upper stomach but passes on into the duodenum, or lower stomach and in- testines, where, in 'ifeis11ttllay5 'ihfeeiss1tlay individ- ual, the transfofmation of the stare into a form Of sugar is completed and then the food absorbed by the blood.
 But if the powers of digestion are weakened, a part of the starchy food will lie in the warmth and moisture cf the body and decay, generating gases and irritating the mucous surfaces un- til under such conditions the whole lower part of the alimeptary canal, in- cluding the colon and the appendix, becomes involved. Disease sets up and at times takes the form known as appendicitis.
 When the symptoms of the trouble make their appearance, would it not be good, practical, common sense, to discontinue the starchy food which is causing the trouble and take a food in which the starch has been trans formed into a form of sugar in the process of manufacture?
 This is identically the same form of sugar found in the human body after SltACA AdS DSGn pS1lSCl1y UlSSSlSu-
 Now, human food is made up very largely of starch and is required by the body for energy and warmth Naturally, therefore, it's use should be continued, if possible, and for the req sons given above it is made possible in the manufacture of Grape-Nuts. In connection with this change of food to bring relief from physical dis turbanceS, we have suggested washing out the intestines to get rid of the i'm mediate cause of the disturbance.
 Naturally, there are cases where the disease has lain dormant and the abuse continued too long, until ap- parently only the knife will avail. But it is well-established fact among the best physicians who are acquainted with the details above recited that preventative measures are far and away the best.
 Are we to be condemned for suggest ing way to prevent disease by fol- | lowing natural methods and for per l fecting a food that contains no ''medi- | cine" and produces no medicinal ef- 1 fects' but which has guided literally thousands of persons from sickness to health? We have received during the l years past upwards of 25,000 letters I from people who have been either f helped or made entirely well by fol- l lowing our suggestions, and they are
 simple.
 | If coffee disagrees and causes any of the ailments common to some cof- | fee users quit it and take on Postum.
 If white bread, potatoes, rice and
 other starch foods make trouble, quit | and use Grape-Nuts food which is
 largely predigested and will digest.

RHEUMATISM RECIPE
PREPARE SIMPLE HOMEMADE
 MIXTURE YOURSELF.
Say the Ingredients from Any Drug. gist in Your Town and Shake Them in Bottle to
 Mix This.

A well-known authority on Rheu. matism gives the readers of a large New York daily paper the following valuable, yet simple and harmless prescription, which any one can easily prepare at home:
 Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces.
 Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and take a teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime.
 He states that the ingredients can be obtained from any good prescrip- tion pharmacy at small cost, and, be- ing vegetable extraction, are harm less to take.
 This pleasant mixture, if taken reg ularly for few days, is said to over come almost any case of Rheumatism. The pain and swelling, if any, dimin- ishes with each dose, until permanent results are obtained, and without in- turing the stomach. While there are many so-called Rheumatism remedies, patent medicines, etc., some of which do give relief, few really give perma- nent results, and the above will, no doubt, be greatly appreciated by many sufferers here at this time.
 Inquiry at the drug stores of even the small towns elicits the information that these drugs are harmless and can be bought separately, or the druggists will mix the prescription if asked to.

Saw If Come Out of a Cow.

A little city boy and his sister Dor othy were taken to the country for the first time.
 The two children were happy as the day was long. In the late after noon they watched the cows come home, heard with delight the tink- ling cow-bells, and the little boy even went in the barns to see the milking done.
 At supper, just as Dorothy was lifting her glass to her rosy lips, the boy cried out:
 "Oh, Dorothy, don't! You mustn't drink that milk. It's not fit to drink. It came out of COW. 1 saw it!"

A Young Composer.

Rachel, aged 12, wrote an compo- sition on wild flowers in which she praised the arbutus, the liverwort, the spring beauty, the blood root, and all of the other blossoms of dell and dale. But she wrote on both sides of her sheet of paper, and when she asked her father, who was an editor, to publish her article, he called her attention to that fact.
 You've written on both sides of your paper" said he.
 Well" was the reply, land don't you print on both sides of yours"

Not a Hit as an Improyiser.

Did you ever hear anybody impro- vise?" he asked
 "No," said she, and he sat down to the piano and improvised for about an hour and half. At the end of that time he turned around, his face full of expression, and said to her:
 What do you think of it?"
 Lovely" she exclaimed. "Beauti- full! I never heard anything like it!" But this is what she said to the hall boy when he was gone:
 "If that long, lank lunatic who im- provises asks for me again, you tell him I am out"

A Doctor of Divinity, now Editor of q well-known Religious paper, has written regarding the controversy be- tween Golfers Weekly and the Re ligious Press of the Country and oth- CTS, including ourselves. Also regard ing suits for libel brought by Golfers against us for commenting upon it's methods.
 These are his sentiments, with some very emphatic words left out.
 "The religious Press owes you a debt of gratitude for your courage in showing up Golfers Weekly as the "Yell-Oh Man" Would you care to use the inclosed article on the Boo Hoo Baby" as the "Yell-Oh Mans successor"
 "A contemporary remarks that Col Hers has finally run against solid hickory Post" and been damaged in it's own estimation to the tune of $750,000.00."
 Here is a publication which has, in utmost disregard of the facts, spread broadcast damaging statements about the Religious Press and others and has suffered those false statements to go uncontradicted until, not satisfied after finding the Religious Press too quiet, and peaceful, to resent the in- suits, it makes the mistake of wander ing into fresh field and butts it's rat tied head against this Post and all the World laughs. Even Christians smile, as the Post suddenly turns and gives it back dose of it's own medicine.
 'It is a mistake to say all the World laughs. No cheery laugh comes from Golfers, but it cries and boo hoos like a spanked baby and wants S750,00O.00 to soothe it's tender, lacerated feel ings."
 Thank Heaven it has at last struck a man with 'back bone" enough to call a spade spade" and who believes in telling the whole truth without fear or favor.'
 Perhaps Golfers with it's Utmost disregard for the facts" may say no such letter exists. Nevertheless it is on file in our office and is only one of 9 mass of letters and other data, news paper comments, etc., denouncing the yellow methods of Golfers. This E volume is so large that man could not we'll go thru it under half day steady work The letters come from various parts of America.
 Usually private controversy is not interesting to the public, but this is a public controversy.
 Golfers has been using the yellow methods to attract attention to itself but, jumping in the air, cracking heels together and yelling Look at me wouldn't suffice. so it started out on a "Holier Than Thou" attack on the Re ligious Press and on medicine:
 We leave it to the public now, as we did when we first resented Golfers attacks, to say whether, in a craving for sensation and circulation, it's at tacks do not amount to a systematic mercenary bounding. We likewise leave it to the public to say whether Golfers, by its own policy and meth

Cats as Plaaue Preventive,

An Italian correspondent of the North China Daily News writes: "The newspapers have latterly been full of all sorts of suggestions for the stamp ing out of plague. For instance, never kill rats; if you do the fatal rat flea may be driven to feed on you Also, compel each householder to keep cats. In fact, let the cult of the cat as it prevailed in ancient Egypt be re- vived in India. Plenty of cats, no rats"
