HE CARRIED AN UMBRELLA.

A dear old lady who was very "sot"
in her prejudices was asked just why
she didn't like a certain man. She had
no particular reason that she could
think of at the instant, but she had been
so emphatic In her expression OF dis
like that she knew she would have to
find some excuse-at once. Just at that
moment she happened to glance out OF
the window and saw him passing by.
He carried a neatly rolled umbrella
though 1t hardly threatened rain.
Quick as flash she answered her
questioner. HE CARRIES an umbrella
whether it's raining or not-he Is a
'softie.'"
But" said her friend. also looking
out OF the window. here comes your
son William, and he is carrying an um-
brella."
This did not stump the old lady. But
that's another matter-I don't like him
anyhow-and besides, it all depends on
who carries the umbrella" she replied
triumphantly.
That is the position some people have
taken regarding that wholesome and
refreshing beverage CocaCola. They
have said good many unkind things
about it and In each instance have had
1t proved to them that their tales were
not true.
Finally they seized upon the fact that
Coca-Cola gets much of its refreshing
deliciousness from the small bit of caf-
feline that 1t contains. They looked upon
that as splendid argument against 1t.
Then. like the old lady who was remind
ed OF son William, they were reminded
that 1t is the caffeine in their favorite
beverages, tea and coffee, (even more
than In Coca-Cola) that gives them
their refreshing and sustaining quail
ties.
But does that stop their criticism of
Coca Cola for containing caffeine? No
their answer Is similar to the old
lady's-they say But that's another
matter"-what they mean Is Being
prejudiced against Coca-Cola and lik-
ing tea or coffee, 1t all depends on
what carries the caffeine"
We think the joke is on them-for
caffeine is caffeine. and If it is not
harmful in one it can't be harmful in
another. We all know that it is not
harmful in tea or coffee-that it Is
really helpful in whatever 1t is-this
is bound to include Coca-Cola.
OF course, the truth is, that having
started an attack on false premises and
having had what they thought were
good reasons for criticism proved to
be no reasons at all. they are grasping
at an excuse which does not exist, to
explain prejudice. So you see, after
all. it all depends on who carries the
umbrella to people who are determined
to be unfair. Let US be fair.-Adv.
