THE TEA PENALTY.
a Strong Mans Experience.

Writing from busy railroad town
the wife Of an employe of one of the
great roads says:
my husband is q railroad man who
has been so much benefited by the use
of Postum that he wishes me to ex-
press his thanks to you for the good
Il has done him. His waking hours
are taken up with his work, and he
has no time to write himself
HE has been q great tea drfnker
all his life and has always liked It
strong.
"Tea has, of late years. acted on
him like morphine does upon most
people. At first 1t soothed him. but
only Cor an hour or SO, then 1t began
to affect his nerves to such an extent
that he could not sleep at night, ana
he would go to his work In the morn
ing wretched and miserable from the
loss Of rest. This condition grew con-
stantly worse. until his friends per-
suaded him. some four months ago. to
quit tea and use Postum.
"At first he used Postum only for
breakfast, but as he liked the taste Of
It. aud 1t somehow seemed to do him
good. he added It to his evening meal.
Then. as he grew better, he began to
drink 1t for his noon meal, and now
ne VIII drink nothing else at table.
His condition Is so wonderfully i'm.
proved that he could not be hired to
give up Postum and 50 back to tea.
His nerves have become steady and
reliable once more, and his sleep Is
easy, natural and refreshing.
He owes all this to Postum. for he
has taken no medicine and male no
other change In his diet.
His brother. who was very nervous
from coffee-drinking, was persuaded
by us to give up the coffee and use
Postum and he also has recovered his
health and strength Name given by

RECIPROCITY AND THE TRUST

Tho Messenger has IN mind now one
man who probably has invested In farm
lands. farm machinery, and farm labor
as much as any other man In the county
who Is most confident that reciprocity
with Canada will not only benefit tho
people of the country as whole by
tending to equalize and steady the prices
OF food products to the consumer, hut
viii In the long run react TO his own
business benefit. because he reasons that
anything that helps the man that has to
buy by giving him more money to buy
with helps the man that has TO sell be-
cause he will sell more in quantity and
in more constant market
In this connection It should not be
forgotten that this country does have
problem on its hands in the shape of
the market control of food products by
so-called trusts and combinations, as the
Richford farmer suggests. And tho farm
er himself that argues against reciprocity
may well consider how much misapplied
protection is benefitting him when Amer
lean manufacturers sell their wares In
Canada cheaper than he can buy them at
honest, Adams Messenger
