were no "Summer reductions this
season on account of unsettled
conditions, and now that conces

operators, the necessity of ad
vancing coal prices is imperative.
Even pea coal is likely to ad

Every Woman's Duty
in matters pertaining to the family table is to decide
not only what is best for herself, but for the husband
and children as well.
Take the table drink, for instance; the housewife
may like her tea or coffee. She knows that coffee and
tea are harmful to many, but she uses her favorite
beverage in moderation, and thinks it doesn't harm
her.
But there's John. He's irritable and nervous,
perhaps his irritation and sleeplessness may be due
to tea or coffee.
Again, almost everybody knows that tea and
coffee are especially harmful to the little folks. The
next thing, then, is "what to serve as a wholesome
table beverage?"
In many families the quick and happy answer is
INSTANT POSTUM
Here is a delicious, "coffee-like" beverage, as hot
and savory as high-grade Java coffee, yet pure and
free from the drugs, caffeine and tannin* which often
disagree with health and comfort.
This pure, delicious food-drink is made instantly
by using a level teaspoonful in a cup and adding hot
water, also sugar and cream to taste. Everyone can
drinjs all they desire without the slightest chance of
harm.
Instant Postum, a real American discovery, is
made of prime wheat and a bit of wholesome mo
lasses. blended and roasted just like coffee. Its
flavor, purity and wonderful goodness have won tre
mendous favor everywhere.
"There's a Reason"
Grocers everywhere sell Postum.
