ONE THING MISSIONARY KNEW
And the Knowledge Enabled Him to
Score a Direct Hit OH the
Bullying Skipper.
Bishop Mitchell s«I(l the other day:
"Missionaries are a good deal de-
rided and reviled since the World
war. Why try to convert the heathen,
people cry, when we're still so unre-
generate ourselves?
"A Methodist missionary was travel-
Ins in n steamer along the west coast
of Africa. The skipper kept making
fun of him. The td« of his trying to
better the heathen! Why not tlrst bet-
ter his own people—get them to stop
using poison pis and all that sort of
thing? Missionaries were no good,
anyway. An ignorant, lazy lot.
"The missionary stood a good deal
of this talk, and then one day at din-
ner he said to the skipper:
" 'We missionaries are ignorant, and
you, of course, know a great deal.
Sailing these African waters so many
years, I suppose you can*tell me the
length of an alligators tongue?
" 'Sure I can!' blustered the skip-
per. 'Surest thing you know!'
"'Well, then, what Is It?'
"'It depends,' said the skipper, on
the length of the alligator.'
" 'Ail right. Suppose the alligator
is 15 feet long?'
"The skipper looked around the
table. All the passengers bent for-
ward, deeply Interested in this lingual
duel—this tongue battle, so to speak.
" 'If the alligator's 15 feet long,' the
skipper said, 'it's tongue will be three
feet long.'
"'Wrong!' said the missionary,
calmly. 'I'm only an ignorant mission-
ary, but I know that alligators don't
have tongues.'"—Detroit Free Press.

Since we ;ire not home loving,

naturally enough that we are not 9

about his work and tried 'lie patience
of editors. At the last they did not
understand that they were urging him
beyond his strength. In one of these
letters he writes:
"You are sill' using plenty of 'sar-

In order to do your best work, yovi must be hea.thy. You
must sleep soundly at night, your nerves must be strong,
. teady and under perfect control.
If you are accustomed to drinking tea or coffee with
,-cur meals or between meals, you may be loading yourself
with a very great handicap. Your nervous system may be
stimulated beyond what is natural for you.
For tea and coffee contain thein and caffeine. These are
drugs as any doctor can tell you. They are known to irritate
t'y- nervous system by their action and to cause restlessness
r.d insomnia, which prevent the proper recuperation of the
vital forces.
If you want to be at your best, capable of doing the
very best work that lies in you, why not stop drinking tea
and coffee? Drink Postum, the rich, satisfying beverage
made from scientifically roasted cereals.
Postum contains absolutely no drugs of any kind, but
in flavor tastes much like rich coffee. It helps nerve and
brain structure by letting you get sound restful sleep.
Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum (in «•■' ) m.do instantly

How To Keep Your Blood
Pure and Wholesome
It Is the Person With Rich, Red, Normal Blood—The Person
of Health and Energy—That Meets With Busi-
ness and Social Success.
A Lowered Vitality Is Usually Due to Waste Products in the Blood.
When your blood is impoverished
and loaded with waste products, you
don't get the full atrengtn out of your
food, and as a consequence, you be-
come weak, nervous, and easily upset.
Waste products get into the blood
mainly through the intestines, but
there arc other sources—for instance,
the glands. Some glands secrete di-
gestive juices, while others excrete
waste products. If they fail to prop
erly function, waste products accu-
mulate.
As a result, nature strives to cast
off the poisons. It may be through
the skin in the form of some skin dis-
order, but it is not infrequent for it
to settle in the muscles and joints
and cause rheumatism.
For over 50 years, thousands and
thousands of men and women have
relied on S. S. S. to clear their blood I
of waste products. S. S. S. will im-
prove the quality of your blood by re-
lieving you of the waste products
