The Postum Company does pay opt up
wards Of . million . year for trade an

print them. Large numbers Of nswsps-
per men use our products.
They are capable Of telling the PUBLIC
whether or pot Me "bribs" them.
Il may have escaped notice that We
did not "bribe" that particular weekly.
No. . states that the amount of the
verdict will ''be devoted by the weekly
to exnosine fraud:"
This il almost real humor.
We have two suits pending against the
weekly" total. $500 10000.
We haven't devoted" the sum to any
particular purpose yet.
Itsm 10 is "discovery" that wheat
bran il . part of Postum.
But the criticism neglected to mention
that for years every Postum package an
nounced in plain type that tho outer COW
beverage.
They ignorantly fell into trap here,
not knowing enough Of food value to know
that Taxa. .Diastase' the article used by
physicians the world over for starch in
digestion" il made from wheat BRAN"
So We use that part of the wheat berry
because it contains the element needed
ufacture. Good Postum IL impossible
without this part.
These selfappointed critics do make
some lauahable 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 Psychology.-all re-
latinR to the preparation and digestion Of
food. Asked to name authorities studied
he mentioned six or eight from memory,
and commented on some clinical expe-
rience covering several year, 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"
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,-all except two had
been published since 1905"
This is an example of distortion and
false coloring to produce an unfavorable
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 in re-
gard to the action of the digestive organs.
These works are:

critics. On the witness stand Mr.. Post
looks quietly but very steadily straight in
to the eyes of the haggling. twisting law
yer, trying by all his art TO ask double
fuse q witness.
The 'dodginR" it seems consisted OF
replying. II don't know"
Opposing counsel holds a book in his
hand while he queries.-
7 want to know IL there is single
thing in your whole book here that .us-
gests any particular kind of food" Then
followed some discussion between attof-
| neys.
When Mr.. Post was allowed to reply.
he said. 81 don't know until i read the
DOCK over 10 bSCs
This book, it turns out. was written BY
Mr.. Post seventeen years ago and prob.
ably has not been read carefully by him
a remarkable memory to instantly say
"yes" or mo" as to what a book Of lat
pages did or did not contain. without
reading it over...but such conservativs
and well balanced answers are construed
BY sensation seekers to be "dodging"
Tho attorney sought by every art to
impress the Jury with the fact that M.
Posts belief in the power Of Mind IN
relation to the body branded him as unH
reliable and worse.
The following is quoted from ono Of
the Questions:-
(The lawyer reading from tho book.)
"The writer of these pages desires to
say nothing of himself other than as a
simple instrument through which the Di.
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, expo
rience and the ability to evolve correct
conclusions.
"Read carefully. thoughtfully no more
than twenty pages daily. Afterward seek
an easy pofltlOn Wnere you VIII not d
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 healin~ power. If you go into the
silence humble and trusting. you will come
out. enriched and greatly strengthened in
body by contact even for short time
with the Father of all life and all power:
You will feel refreshed in eveey way and
food taken will digest readily as tho
stomach works smoothly when under tho
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 tho Atty's
face to emphasize his reply and with eyes
that caused those of the Attorney to drop
he said. Yes. am proud to say did"
