It is evident that if the United States Senate had seen fit to ratify the Versailles treaty, Germany would nover have made any fuss at all about this matter.

Ihe German par liament is upset over a report that n the negotiations for a separate treaty between Germany and the United States, the American government in sists on a frank admission of Ger many's guilt. The premier has been bombarded with protests and demands for explanation.

That's the reason why hick of sleep makes you irritable, ineffi cient and nervous; and why you luck "punch" when you don't net a proper amount of the right kind of sleep. It has been the experience of many that the cup of tea or coffee, taken at meal-time, robs them of sleep. In Gould and Pyle's Cyclo pedia of Medicine and Surgery you'll find that "calfein is a rap idly acting stimulant to the brain and spinal cord, quickens the action of the heart, and raises blood pressure." This makes it n very gtxxl medicine if prescribed by a doctor for cases of collapse, when a pa tient needs to have his system abnormally forced into activity. But cufleine is not good fur people whose systems don't need to be drugged. So if you don't get your proper sleep tit night, it may be because you are being kept uwake by teu or coffee. Stop tea and coffee for awhile and drink Postum the delicious cereal beverage. Postum is a pure cereul prod uct, and contains no harmful element whatsoever. Your first taste of Postum will surprise and please you. Many people prefer the flavor of Postum to that of coffee. Order Postum from your gro cer ttxlay. Drink this hot, re freshing beverage in place of tea or coffee for ten days, and see what u wonderful difference it will makt in the way you fejfl. fMum cvmri in two (otms: Instint Pvilum (in io) made hisunilly In lh cop by 111 addition i'l tHMluif .l.r.
