ROPE OF SHIRTS SAVES MINER CAUGHT IN CREVASSE TACOMA. WASH Aug 26 Ben Galgarror, a miner, went walking on a glacier above the Molly Gibson mine at Nelson, B. C. In the twilight lie stepped off Into a crevasse hundred* of feet deep. Companions found he had caught on a ledge 50 feet below the surface and rescued him uirh a rope twisted from their flannel Blurt*. XI .N. fflp I | | gWV / I eHCRB <- ;■■■ Hal December 16, 1773 A little affair occurred in New England / that went down in history as The Boston Tea Party “There s a Reason” * An English King had told his subject colonists that if they drank tea they must pay a tax on it—an unjust tax that made revenue, not for Americans but for Englishmen. Tt was a tax that increased the high cost of living of those days—and our forefathers went to the wharf w.here the tea ships were moored, split open the tea chests and spilled their contents into Boston Harhor, thus producing the largest and most expensive bowl of tea the world has ever seen. Today Is repeated practically the same thing. The Brazilian Coffee Trust, operated by foreign money kings, working outside the control of our National Anti-trust laws, have imposed a tax upon American Citizens which has raised the price of even the cheapest grade of coffee 15c to 25c per lb. During three past years this trust has taken Hundreds of Millions of Dol lars from the pockets of American Citizens. It has given Brazil 85 Millions of Dollars with which to retire her National Bonds. It has given Brazil 10 Millions of Dollars to pay interest on her bonds. r It has given Brazil a “bought and paid for” supply of coffee on hand worth 90 Millions of Dollars aud- it has paid millions upon millions of profit into the coffers of the Foreign Money Kings, and yet the coffee people report a falling off in sales of about 200 million pounds in the past two yeears. Why this Heavy Reduction? Until recently the ever increasing army of Postuni users, thought only of health as a "reason'’ for quitting coffee. Now Economy is another “reason.” A third "reason.” Improved Flavor, has come in with Instant Postum prepared instantly by placing a spoonful in a cup and pouring hot water over it. This presents a delicious beverage much resembling high grade .Java in color and taste, but abso lutely pure and free from the coffee drug "caffeine” or any other harmful ingredient. Health, convenience, flavor and economy have induced people to change from coffee to Postum then follows better health, freedom from headache, indigestion, nervousness and other coffee ills. The Result— In hundreds of th< usands of American homes today, coffee is forgotten and Postum has become the regular table beverage. It is an American drink made by Americans from American products. A 100 cup tin Instant Postum 50c (equals 12c per cup), at Grocers. (Smaller tins at 30c.) Regu lar Postum, large package (must be boiled 15 minutes), 25c. “ There’s a Reason” a L.jui.L.. «. 5-cup free samples of Instant Postum sent for Coffee averages about double that cost. . r 2-cent stamp for postage.
