Then the article proceeds to de nounce Postum and works into a fine frenzy, because we have pub lished facts regarding the effect of coffee on some people.
 The narrowing tale goes on.
 Where a few years ago every body drank coffee, several cups a day, now we find in every walk in life people who imagine they can not drink 1t. (The underscoring is ours.) Burly blacksmiths, carpen- ters, laborers and athletes have dis continued or cut down the use of coffee; as there is not person who reads this and will not be able to find the same conditions existing among his own circle of acquaint- ances, is 1t not we'll for the Brazil fans to sit up and take notice?" Isn't it curious these "bur- ly" strong men should pick out cof fee to imagine" about? Why not imagine" that regular doses of whiskey are harmful, or daily slugs of morphine?
 If imagination" makes the caf- feine in coffee clog the liver, de- press the heart, and steadily tear down the nervous system, bringing on one or more of the dozens of types of diseases which follow broken-down nervous systems, many people don't know it.
 But it remained for the man who has coffee, morphine or whiskey to sell, to have the supreme nerve to say: "You only imagine your disorders. Keep on buying from ma p

Let us continue to quote from his article.
 Notwithstanding the enormous increase in population during the past three years, coffee shows an appalling decrease in consumption"
Arizona sentinel and Yuma weekly examiner., 1911-12-14

This Is one of the highest com pliments ever paid to the level-head- ed, common sense of Americans who cut of about two hundred mill lion pounds of coffee when they found by actual experiment Gin the majority of cases) that the subtle drug caffeine. in coffee, worked dis comfort and varying forms of dis ease.
 Some people haven't the charac- ter to stop a habit when they know 1t is killing them, but 1t Is easy to shift from coffee to Postum, for, when made according to directions, it comes to table a cup of beverage, seal brown color, which turns to rich golden brown when cream is added, and the taste is veRy like the milder grades of Old Govt Java.
 Postum is veritable food-drink and highly nourishing, containing all the parts of wheat carefully pre- pared to which is added about ten per cent of New Orleans molasses, and that Is absolutely all that Postum is made of.
 Thousands of visitors to the pure food factories see the ingredients and how prepared. Every nook and corner is open for every visit or to carefully inspect. Crowds come daily and seem to enjoy 1t.

Some men have a well-seated preju- dice against giving up their place to woman in a crowded car.
Arizona sentinel and Yuma weekly examiner., 1911-12-14

Some persons seem to have ex- cess vitality enough to use coffee, tobacco and whiskey for years and apparently be none the worse, but the number is small, and when a sensible man or woman finds an ar ticle acts harmfully they exercise some degree of intelligence by dropping it.
 We quote again from the article:
 "These figures are paralyzing but correct, being taken from Leech's statistics, recognized as the most reliable"
Arizona sentinel and Yuma weekly examiner., 1911-12-14

Then follows a tiresome lot of statistics which wind up by show ing a decrease of consumption in two years of, in round figures. two hundred million pounds.
