TO PRETENDERS
A Wholesome Word for Guidance.

Just word to you, "Collier's" and
other glazing examples of Modern Vel
low Journalism and Cigarettes.
Environment gives you a viewpoint
from which 1t is difficult to understand
that some people even nowadays act
from motives of old fashioned hon.
esty.
There are honest makers of foods
and healthful beverages and there are
honest people who use them.
Perhaps you are trained to believe
there is no honesty in this world.
There is, although you may not be of
kind to understand it,
Some Of you have been trained in a
sorry class of pretenders, but your
training does not faint the old fash
Toned person trained without know
ledge of pretense and deceit.
These letters came to us absolutely
without solicitation. We have a great
many thousand from people who have
been helped or entirely healed by fol-
lowing the suggestions to quit the food
or drink which may be causing the
physical complaints and change to
Postum Coffee or Grape-Nuts food.
You are not intelligent enough to
know the technical reasons why the
change makes a change in the cells of
the body. Your knowledge. or lack of
knowledge, makes not the slightest
difference In the facts
You can print from old and worn
plates all the cheap books your press
es will produce and sell them as best
you can, but such acts and your
learned" editorials are but CONNER
cial, and seek only dollars" and much
by pretence.
When you branch out into food val
ues you become only ridiculous.
Stick to what you know. The field
may be small but it is safe.

dent of the Christian Nation" a
