Now that same coffee costs from 25 cis. to 45 cts. per pound and a further raise of ten cents is in prospect. “There’s a Reason” Four years ago Brazil found that in spite of the fact that it was producing over 90% of the coffee consumed in the United States, its rich phmters were not squeezing as much money out of Americans as they could and the Brazil- ian government was not receiving enough revenue from a product that was one of that country’s chiefest products. And so Brazil determined to levy tribute upon rich and prosperous America, even as the British taxed our tea in olden days; only this modern type of pir- acy was engineered and executed in a kid glove way. lish and others) scheme called Certain foreign capitalists (German, En were called into consultation. They devised a “valorization.” They started by buncoing our \mdrlum umElew into ero\mo the lmpml tax on coffee, and that done, Brazil immediately transferred the income to its own treasury by imposing an export tax. ~ This was followed by perfecting a system where- by the Brazilian government could control the output and the price of coftee. The net result has been that Brazil for the last three years has sold just what grades of coffee it wanted to sell, at any price it chose to fix, and in conse- quence the Brazilian government has shared with a syndicate of foreign money kings a profit of Hundreds of Millions of Dollars, every cent of which has come frem the pockets of the American People. This Is Where YOU Come In The average coffee drinker knows that coffee is a really harmful drink to most folks. Headache, biliousness, indigestion and other signs of an up-set liver, as well as heart irritation, nervousness and sleeplessness are too evident to most cof- fee drinkers to permit of their ignorance of that fact, Economy to Health and Purse, Suggests the new American Drink— INSTANT POSTUM made in the cup—no boiling required Made of American wheat and American sugar cane, processed and combined- in an American factory by American citizens, ‘this pure food product is roasted just like coffee and has a color and taste much resembling high-grade Java.
