Advice—Often Worth Heeding

—particularly when that advice refers to habits that directly affect one's health and comfort. Thousands, annoyed by headaches, nervousness, biliousness, sleeplessness, etc.—often due to coffee drinking—have heeded a friendly suggestion to quit the coffee and use

Intsant Postum

This pure food-drink is made of wheat, roasted with a bit of wholesome molasses. It has a rich, snappy flavor much like that of high-grade Java coffee, yet it contains no caffeine—the drug in coffee—nor other harmful element.

Freedom from caffeine gives Nature right of way to rebuild and revitalize the mental and physical forces.

There are two forms of Postum: The original Postum Cereal must be boiled Instant Postum, a soluble form, is made in the cup by adding boiling water—ready instantly. Some prefer one, some* the other they are equally delicious and the cost per cup is about the same.

With most coffee-drinkers the change to Postum marks the start to better health and greater comfort.

There's a Reason"

Grocers everywhere sell Postum.

The Price the U. S. Is Paying

With his high forehead and his long hair brushed straight back, his long black silk bow tie and his slouchy coat, Fischer perched himself in the prisoner's bench before his case was called, and to con.vince the Judge of the steadiness of his hand, drew a picture of a dashing young girl.

The picture was Just finished as his case was called, and he presented it to Judge Newton when placed on the stand. y

Fischer left the room in tears. Judge Newton kept the picture.

CHER0-C0LA SPREADS OUT.

The Chero-Cola company Monday received at its plant on North Third street the second of rapid automatlo bottling machines the company has installed this season. The machine has a eapaoity of four hundred oases a day. Manager T. J, Dailey said the eompany is now shipping its product to six counties in Illinois and an auto truck has been added to mtuih points off! the railropds.

The United States is today paying $425 a ton for armor, an amount substantially lower than is paid by Japan, Austria, Germany, England or France.

England bays Its armor from five privately owned plants, and Is now paying: 9603 a ton. Germany has two privately owned plants, and Is 'paying 5400 a ton. Japan Is the only countTy with a goT ernment plant, and yet armor cost her $490 a ton. The Specifications In the XJntted States are much more rigid and the wagrea paid are very mactl hlffher than those prevailing In any foreign country.

Tile"Bureau of Ordnance of the Navy, in a report, dated June 28, 1913, saidi

"The superior excellence of American armor is due to the fact that the Bureau of Ordnance has consistently and persistently demanded from armor makers the best armor they could produce and also to the fact that

"The Armor makers have honestly and conscientiously striven to produce THE BEST POSSIBLE ARMOR."

First—Of a QUALITY to be determined by the rigid requirements of the Navy Depart ment, and Second—At a PRICE to be fixed by the Federal Trade Commission.

The entire situation is thus left absolutely in the control of the Government.

UNDER SUCH CONDITIONS, IS THERE ANY OCCASION TO WASTE $11,000,000 Df BUILDING A GOVERNMENT ARMOR PLANT?
