1 The Key to Success Is Work
There Is no Substitute for It!
In order to do your best work, you must be
healthy. You must sleep soundly at night, your
, nerves must be strong, steady and under perfect
control.
If you are accustomed to drinking tea or
coffee with your meals or between meals, you
may be loading yourself Aith a very great handi
cap. Your nervous system may be stimulated
beyond what is natural for you.
For tea and coffee contain thein and caffeine.
These are drugs as any doctor can tell you.
They are known to irritate the nervous system
by their action and to cause restlessness and
insomnia, which prevent the proper recuperation
of the vital forces.
If you want to be at your best, capable of
doing the very best work that lies in you, why
not stop, drinking tea and coffee? Drink Postum,
the rich, satisfying beverage made from scienti
fically roasted cereals. ,
Postum contains absolutely no drugs of
any kind, but in flavor tastes much like rich
coffee. It helps nerve and brain structure by
letting you get sound restful sleep.
Postum comes In two forms: Instant Postum (in tins)
made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling water.
Postum Cereal (in packages of larger balk, for those who
prefer to make the drink while the meal is being prepared)
made by boiling for 20 minutes.
Ask your grocer for Postum. Sold everywhere.

wards, was born Jan. 14, 1917; de
parted thi3 life Nov. 15, 1921, aged
four years, ten months and one day.
Little Ruby was sick or pneumonia

a heart-broken mother and father
and a host of relatives to mourn her
death.
Tenderly they laid her away to
await the coming of the Saviour
when the family will be reunited.
How they love her; Jjow they will
miss her. But the Savior's love is
far more blessed. He bade her come
to his arms, he who said "Suffer little
children to come unto me, and forbid
them not, for of such is the kingdom
of Heaven."
"A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled;
God in his wisdom has recalled
The boon his love has given."
Tho the little body slumbers here,
the soul is safe in Heaven.
Weep not. Be comforted in the
thought that your baby is with the
angels, safe in heaven. v
Prepare yourselves to meet her
where no ""more sad goodbyes are
said. :
The little body was laid to rest in
Antioch Cemetery to await the resur
rection morn. Written by an aunt.
