Mother? Why did Daddy switch to post them? Your father says there's no caffeine in post them, nothing to spoil your sleep. And your father knows best. Yes, his father knows best. Transcribed in Hollywood starring Robert Young, his father.
A half hour visit with your neighbors, the Anderson. Brought to you by Instant Post them. The good tasting drink that's entirely caffeine free, and by post 40% brand flakes. America's largest selling brand flakes. To him Anderson, one of the most attractive things about the White Frame House on Maple Street is the fact that the current taxes are all paid on. That is, they will be paid
as soon as he mails the check for the last installment. Yes sir, there certainly beats paying rent. I tell you, Margaret, buying this house was the best thing we ever did. I'll never understand why they sold it so cheap. They must have been out of their mind.
Oh, they were probably trying to make a deal before the rainy season set in and we found out the roof leaked. Oh, well that was just a minor thing. What's important in the house is it's foundation.
Have you ever taken a look at those joists? To tell the truth, no, I didn't even know we had any. We've got copper water pipes throughout. I tell you there's something you don't see in the houses they're building nowadays.
Copper water pipes. Maybe that's all they could get then. Mother! No, Sir Margaret, you talk about a home being a man's castle. No, I think you better call a plumber for that hot water faucet.
Oh, hello, Father. about the hot water faucet? It seems there's a slow leak in the castle. Oh, that's nothing to call a plumber for. New wash will fix that up just a jiffy. You mean you're going to do it yourself?
