CAN MlLkMAN REFUSE
SALE TO CuSIOMERSf

Mason City, Ia. Aug. 17.-Here's one
the like of which has never been told:
X. G.. Bright deals in cream and is
resident of Emmetsburg. James f. Sui
livan is a Well to do citizen and can
we'll afford the trimmings necessary
for a we'll regulated cup of coffee. One
morning he went to the dairy of Mr..
Bright and asked for a pint of cream.
Mr. Bright rized up the situation and
informed MIR Sullivan that he had
engaged all that he could spare for
that day. ii Is quite evident that Mr.
Sullivan was unable to grasp the
entire story and would not have it that
way and insisted on having the pint
of cream. And Mr.. Bright was just
as stubborn in refusing. The two men
warmed up to the occasion and instead
of settling it a la Sullivan. they re-
sorted to the courts and Sullivan has
brought suit against Bright for 5000.
The point that Mr.. Sullivan insists on
is that Mr.. Bright is a dealer in this
commodity and that he had no right
TO refuse him when he had the cash
| for the goods and WAS there to get 1t
and there was then a supply. The case
will no doubt be one of interest and 1T
is quite likely TO go into the higher
| court.

BAD DREAMS
Caused by Conee.

Caused by Coffee.
II have been coffee drinker, more
or less, ever since l can remember,
until few months ago | became more
and more nervous and irritable, and
/ was horribly disturbed by dreams Of
all sorts and species Of distressing
nightmare.
Finally, after hearing the expert
ence of numbers of friends who had
quit coffee and were drinking Postum,
and learning of the great benefits they
had derived, l concluded coffee must
be the cause of my trouble so l got
some Postum and had it made strict
ly according to directions.
II was astonished at the flavor and
taste. 1t entirely took the place Of
coffee, and to my very great satisfac-
ton, began to sleep peacefully and
sweetly. My nerves improved, and I
wish could wean every man, woman
and child from the unwholesome drug
ordinary coffee.
People really do not appreciate or
realize what powerful drug it is and
what terrible effect it has on the hui
man system. If they did, hardly a
! pound of it would be sold. l would
never think of going back to coffee
again. l would almost as soon think
of putting my hand in a fire after I
had once been burned.
"a young lady friend of ours had
stomach trouble for long time, and
could not get we'll as long as she used
coffee. She finally quit coffee and be-
gan the use of Postum and is now per-
fectly well. Yours for health"
