There is formidable list Of literary men
Of this country who have had places In
its foreign service. The list was begun by
Thomas Paine and Benjamin Franklin, and
it might we'll have included Thomas JEFF
ferson in the number. Among them were
Washington Irving, who identified himself
most Of all with the country to which he
was sent: Nathaniel Hawthorne in his En-
glish consulship. Bayard Taylor at st.
Petersburg, Lew Wallace at Constantine
pie, George Bancroft. John Lothrop Mot
ley, James Russell Lowell and John Hay,
at London; William D. Howells, at Venice;
Bret Harte. at Glasgow; John Bigelow. in
France. and Charles DeKay. in Germany.
These are the more eminent examples, and
the list might be further extended by a
closer study. There was Theodore 8. Fay.
who had considerable reputation as
novelist In his day, long time serving as
minister to Switzerland. At home Martin
Van Buren had a novelist in his cabinet In
James X. Paulding, and George Bancroft
was Secretary of the Navy under President

Organist-Miss Nellie Olney, Bancroft.

Detroit Free Press: 1t is likely that the
club of farmer members of the legislature
formed in Pioneer hall last Tuesday night
will become permanent body, and it may
result in a new organization of farmers,
which will take in not only the members of
the legislature. but outsiders and be the
awakening of an organization something
like the Patrons of Industry. The commit
tee appointed for that purpose decided to
recommend for permanent chairman of the
club Senator S. j. Lawrence of Wayne
county, and Representative l.. ID. Dickin-
son. of Eaton, for secretary. Lawrence was
the chief executive of the Patrons of Indus
try at Wyandotte, when that institution was
flourishing few years ago. Representative
Dickinson, who is pushing the measure to
do away with the issuing of statistics by the
state, which he says cost about $780, 600 and
are considered practically worthless. desires
that all communications on the matter from
10 trds OF supervisors be sent 10 him at the
capitol. Mr. Dickinson says the impression
that has gone around that the farmers club
intends To stand together on all measures In
the legislature is mistake. The only pur-
pose of the organization is to discuss matters
in which they may specially be interested.
The club will meet again tomorrow morning
and effect its permanent organization.

WHY LADIES LIKE COFFEE,
Though Many Admit 1t Hurts Them

Though Many Admit 1t Hurts Them.
Many ladies have so great liking for
coffee for breakfast that the meal seems
flat and unsavory without ii; but the muddy
complexion which is almost sure accom-
paniment, is great trial, ana the question Is
seriously discussed many aud many times
over IN ones mind, whether 1t is possible to
give over the coffee and gradually get back
the lost complexion, or keep on with the
coffee and get on with the bad skin and
make the best of it,.
The disordered stomach aud liver some
times brings on more serious troubles. To
quit the use of coffee Is the only true relief;
it contains the same poisonous alkaoids as
tobacco, strychnine and morphine, although
less in volume. One can use the delicious
hot Food Coffee, Postum Cereal, at meals,
and never miss the coffee. 1t brews the
deep seal-brown of Mocha, and takes on the
rich goden-brown of old Java when cream
is added. 1t is made by the Postum Cereal
Co., Lim., of Battle Creek, Michigan, pure
ly and wholly of the nourshing grains in.
tended by the Creator for mans subsistence.
The pungent taste so we'll liked in strong
coffee is retained in postum.
Nature quickly RECEIVERS when coffee is
left off and the natural health coffee is used
in its place. Healthful sleep is again
enjoyed, and nerves, stomach, liver, bowels
and heart cease their complaining when the
disturbing cause is withdrawn.
These are great big live facts, worthy the
attention Of anyone who cares for the
exquisite fun of being perfectly well.
