Order a package from the grocer in the morning, serve
it at dinner and the next morning at breakfast to every
one at table, and you're rather sure to find the vote will be
overwhelmingly for it.
While Instant Postum is essen
tially a nourishing, full flavored
beverage for grown folks, it is ab
solutely pure and free from the
harm in such drinks as tea and
coffee, and children can drink all
they wish in safety. Its rich, Java

to them.
Parents who love to gratify
childish desire for the same articles

use, find

just the thing.
