For You to Try
Lots of people keep oB using coffee as a daily beverage, knowing
that it ia harmful, but are puzzled for something to take its place.
Instant Postum
T," fills the bill exactly.
Thla Dew food-drink tastes much like high-grade Java, but pos
sesses the merit of being healthful, pure and absolutely free from the
coffee drug "caffeine" which is the cause of much of the heart,
stomach, liver and nerve disorders with which so many coffee drink
ers are afflicted. ,-
Fill out and mall the above coupon (enclosing 2 cent stamp for
postage) and we will send you a miniature tin of Instant Postum
containing enough for 5 cups.
Postum comes In two forms. "- '
Regular Postum (must be boiled).
Instant Postum doesn't require boiling but is prepared Instantly
by stirring a level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot water,
which makes it right for most persons.
A t'-K cup requires more and some people who like strong things
put in a heaping spoonful and temper It with a lare supply of cream.
Experiment until you know the amount that pleases your palate
and have it served that way In the fu.ure.
"There's a Reason" For Postum.

Chicago, July 17. Stereotypers
nnlon No. 114 and the Chicago local
of the American Newspaper Publish
ers' association signed an agreement
yesterday that assures peace for ten
years.
Sixty days notice must be given by
either party to amend the contract,
but no move to reduce wages can be
made during the first five years. In
the event that the union and pub
lishers cannot agree on any question
of wages or working conditions it
shall go to arbitration.
Every safeguard to prevent Irre
sponsible leaders of the stereotypers
from creating similar trouble to that
on the newspapers of a year ago was
taken by the international union officials.
Eight of Chicago's big newspapers
have agreed to the contract and the
work of putting it into effect will be
gin immediately.
The new contract was underwritten
by James J. Freel, president, and J.
Fremont Frey, special representative
of the International Stereotypers and
Electrotypers' union.
"We are well satisfied with the new
contract," said President Freel. "Af
ter our members had broken a con
tract underwritten by the internation
al union we knew It would take time
to obtain a new contract. Stereotyp
ers' union No. 4, which broke the con-
ract, was dissolved."
Stereotypers' union No. 114, which is
composed of all except 12 of the strik
ers on the Chicago newspapers, met
last night and unanimously indorsed
the agreement made by their interna
tional officers.
The publishers were thanked for
their courtesy to the union officials
and this letter ordered sent to Victor
F. Lawson, president of the Chicago
local of the American Newspaper Pub
Ushers' association:
"Dear Sir At a regular meeting of
Stereotypers' union No. 114 held July
15 a hearty vote of thanks was unani
mously tendered your association for
the courtesy shown James J. Freel,
president of the International Stereo
typers and Electrotypers' union, and
J. Fremont Frey, special repre&enta
tive for the international union, dur
ing the agreement negotiations just
concluded.
"ROBERT J. LONGMCRE,
"Secretary No. 114.
The strike of stereotypers was con
sidered in labor circles as criminal Tn
its purpose. The Chicago newspaper
strike was never an organized labor
strike. A handful of men with good
positions, backed by crooked politi
cians, brought on the strife.
The rank and file of the unions in
volved were the victims of the con
spiracy, and great regret has been ex
pressed In labor circles that so many
had to suffer privation because of the
strike plot.
L. P. Straube, one of the instigators
of tho strike, is now an outcast from
the trade union movement.
One feature of the broken contracts
and the action of the International of
ficers In repudiating the stereotypers'
strike Is the rapid growth of the In
ternational Stereotypers' union since
President Freel and the executive
board repudiated Straube andT uis
crew of union wreckers.
