Where shall we find the flour which the 

 world needs and must have? We get 

 glimpses and suggestions of it in the cakes 

 which Sara made for Abraham, and in the 

 bread which Rebekah made for Jacob, to 

 sustain him on his long journey to the 

 land of Laban's pretty daughters; we get 

 measurable revelations of it in those earlier 

 days and Oriental lands in the bread gen- 

 erally called, by reason of its great whole- 

 someness, "the staff of life" — bread made 

 of flour of the whole wheat. 



But the glimpses and suggestions and 

 measurable revelations were but prophecies 

 of time when patient research and modern 

 knowledge, and philanthropic interest in 

 the betterment of the race, combined with 

 great commercial enterprise, should pro- 

 duce the Franklin Mills Flour of the whole 

 wheat — the only flour that will make a per- 

 fect bread, a bread that is wholesome food 

 for the entire body. — Exchange. 



Last fall I was in camp with a common 

 oil stove. All the cooking utensils were 

 black with soot, and there was plenty of 

 discomfort. I came into town, got a copy 

 of Recreation, saw all about the Primus 

 vapor stove, ordered one, and am now 

 back in camp clean, warm and happy.

A Message 



to ye who 



flonger Words 



and break down 



Grey flatter 



Many of your craft are highly organized and 

 cannot stand the action of common coffee on the 

 complex nervous system. 



If your machine is working perfectly, go it 

 and Godspeed to you. If physical ails handicap 

 you for doing your best, quit coffee ten days, 

 and our word for it, you will take on added 

 ability. 



You can make the shift without missing a cop 

 if you use Postum Cereal Coffee. Yes, it will 

 taste good if you insist on having it made accord- 

 ing to directions. It certainly does blend with 

 the albumen of your food, and that's the com- 

 bination Nature uses from which to rebuild 

 brain. If you have a use for brain?, use 

 POSTUM COFFEE.

A Christmas present of a wolf rug brings 

 me the following graceful reply: 



Your welcome gift is warmly appreciated. 

 Accept my thanks for him. I shall never 

 again try to keep the wolf from the door. 

 My whole effort shall now be to keep him 

 in, and to that end he lies under my feet. 

 German like, we say "him," and have 

 named him "Blanco," in memory of Mr. 

 Thompson's charming beast.
