Often cowpath has been allowed to become
a village street. and as the village expanded,
tradition has made the winding way express
sion of a cows will.
Habit is always forging chains to enslave US,
so that what has been found bearable by the
fathers is accepted by the sons
Who cannot recall the coffee-pot Mother put
on the stove early in the morning, warning
not to let it boil over?
AS children, we were not permitted to drink
tea or coffee, because it would stunt our growth
or make US nervous and irritable When older,
however, craved hot drink with meals, and
custom gave us our tea CT coffee.
Finally upon the instructions of the doctor,
Mother gave up her tea and Coffee But that
meant nothing in young lives. Our vitality
was then strong enough to throw off any i'll effects.
But our time came, and we learned by ex-
perence that we could not drink tea coffee.
When we had it for breakfast it put nerves
on edge. When drank it at the evening meal,
we tossed about in wakefulness most of the night.
And then we found Postum pure cereal
beverage, free from the harmful drug, caffeine, in
tea and coffee We liked the rich, satisfying flavor
Of Posturn-and also the better health which re-
suited. And, too, surprised to find how

covery-had learned the value of health first"

Although the police and Central

sc arch for Alfred J. Carter, the proof
reader, who disappeared from his
home, 1902 Eleventh street. on April
., no trace of the missing man has
been found.
Mrs Carter called at police head
quarters today and reiterated to In
spector Grant her belief that her hus-
band had either gone to Chicago,
where he has a brother, or had met
with foul play. A few hours before
lie disappeared Carter drew $3.50 out
OF a local bank and $45 as his weeks
salary. He talked with his wife on
the telephone only a few moments
before he vanished.
II have written to his brother in
Chicago,~and asked him to telegraph
me whether or not he knew anything
concerning my husbands where
abouts, but have received no reply
said Mrs. Carter today. II am at an
utter loss to understand his mystic
rious disappearance and my grief over
ids fate is driving me almost dis
uacted."
