The Weekly" carefully eliminates from
its printed account testimony regarding
the years of research and study by Mr..
Post in fitting himself for his work, and
would lead the reader Of the distorted
article to believe that his education
began since 1905.
Distortion No. Il reports Mr.. Post as
"dodging witness"
His eye is not Of the shifty kind OBJ.
served in the head Of one OF his chief
critics. On the witness stand Mr.. Post
looks quietly but very steadily straight ir~
to the eyes of the haggling, twisting law
yer, trying by all his art to ask double-
barreled questions and bull-doze and con-
fuse witness.
The "dodging' 1t seems consisted OF
replying, II don't know
Opposing counsel holds book In his
hand while he queries M
I want to know il there ID a single
thing in your whole book here that sug-
gests any particular kind of food" Then
followed some discussion between attor-
neys.
When Mr.. Post was allowed to reply.
he said, II don't know until read the
book over to see."
This book. il turns out, was written by
Mr.. Post seventeen years ago and prob
ably has not been read carefully by him
in the last fifteen years. 1t would require
u remarkable memory to instantly say
Eyes" or mo" as to what book Of lat
pages did or did not contain. without
reading it over,-but such conservative
and well balanced answers are construed
by sensation seekers to be "dodging."
The attorney sought by every art tc
impress the Jury with the fact that Mr..
Posts belief in the power of Mind in
relation to the body branded him as I'M
reliable and worse.
The following is quoted from one Of
the questions:-
THE lawyer reading from the book.)
"The writer of these pages desires to
say nothing Of himself other than az a
simple instrument through which the d.
vine Principle chooses to manifest itself
by precept and example.
"Skill in mental practice is gained in
the same way as skill in any department
of science--by observation, study, expe-
rience and the ability to evolve correct
conclusions.
''Read carefully, thoughtfully no more
than twenty pages daily. Afterward seek
an easy position where you will not be
disturbed. Relax every muscle Close
your eyes. and go into the silence where
mind is plastic to the breathings of spirit
and where God talks to the Son. The
thoughts from Divine Universal Mind
come as winged angels and endow you
with healing power. If you go into the
silence humble and trusting, you will come
out enriched and greatly strengthened In
body by contact even for a short time
with the Father of all life and all power
You will feel refreshed in every way and
food taken will digest readily as the
stomach works smoothly when under the
influence of Higher Power"
"T ask you If you did not write that,
and If you did not believe it when you
wrote it,"
For a moment the Court Room was IN
absolute silence.
Mr.. Post slowly leaned forward over
the rail, pointed his finger at the Atty's
face to emphasize his reply and with eyes
that caused those of the Attorney to drop
he said. Eyes, I am proud to say / did"

Some Suspicious Persons

few have read lately articles attacking and
be interested in the following:
Some time ago a disagreement with Weekly They
endorsed foods by letter but wanted change the form Of
advertising, which objected
Weekly" inserting while
they negotiating for changes they wanted in the word

Quite time after the advertising had been left editorial

PrevarlcatIon No. 8. post spends
nearly a million a year in advertising and
relies on that to keep out of the news,

he is perpetrating on the public
The Postum Company does pay out up

This is almost real humor.

We haven't devoted. the sum to sn,

| But the criticism neglected to mention

ering of wheat (bran), mads part of the
| beverage.
They gnorantly fell into trap here,
not knowing enough of food value to know
that 'Taka-Dastase" the article used by
physicians the world over for starch in
digestion" is made from wheat bran"
SO we use that part of the wheat berry
because it contains the element needed
to develop the valuable diastase in man
ufacture, Good Postum is impossible
without this part.
These self-appointed critics do make
some laughable blunders through ignor-
ance, but--be patient.
Item II is an illustration of the squirm.
ing and twisting of the sensational writer
delivering distorted matter to his read
ers.
While on the witness stand Mr.. Post
testified to his studies in Anatomy, Physi-
ology, Dietetics and Psychological re-
lating to the preparation and digestion of
food Asked to name authorities studied
he mentioned Elk or eight from memory,
and commented on some clinical expe-
rence covering several years in annual
journeys to Europe.
Now notice the distortion. Copy from
the printed criticism)
He POST pointed out pile of books
in possession of his attorneys as the very
ones he had read"
(Notice,-"the very ones he had read"
leading the reader TO believe that they
were the only ones.)
"Did you consult the books from these
editions?" was asked.
From those and various editions" an
swered Post.
The attorney picked up book after
book from the pile and showed the title
pages to the jury,-ell except two had
been published since 1905"
This is an example of distortion and
false coloring to produce an unfavoable
impression.
The facts are Mr.. Post purposely intro
duced the latest editions that could be
obtained of prominent authorities to prove
by them the truth of his statements re-
garding appendicitis and the analysis of
brain, also the latest conclusions if re-
gard to the action of the digestive organs
