UPWARD START
After Changing from Coffee to Postum.

Many a talented person is kept back

Sea Steals Land.

Aldeburgh. which today holds its
feast OF sprats. has run considerable
risk In recent years Of providing a
feast for the sprats themselves. Fierce
gales in the eighties and nineties did
very great damage, and almost com
pleted the ruin begun by the sea that
swallowed up ancient Dunwich. At
one time the land went a quarter OF a
mile farther out to sea and an old
map preserved in the venerable Moot
hall shows that the church had at least
ten times more land toward the sea
than II has now. The market place
and the cross are among the trifies
which the sea has stolen, while In 1913
eleven houses disappeared. The arms
of the borough were selected with
some sense OF humor-"A ship In the
waves OF the sea, all sayles bearings."
