CRISP FLAVOR. ;
Proper Way to Prepare Food Elements.

If this should reach the eye of a reader
who has been disappointed in the taste
of Postum Food Coffee, it is respectfully
urged that a new trial be made with the
knowledge that the crisp delicious flavor
can only be obtained by allowing it to
continue boiling full IS minutes after
boiling commences; this does not mean
Is minutes after being placed on the
stove, please remember.
True there are many who mix one half
coffee in their Postum and such prepare
ton will yield a pleasant flavor after or
10 minutes. boiling and will have a pro.
portion of food value, but the strong food
elements and choice favor can only be
obtained from pure Postum by sufficient
boiling. @
There is no question among those who
have made the test, that when common
coffee and white bread are replaced with
Postum Food Coffee and entire wheat
preparations, there is a steady growth
towards vigorous, hearty physical and
mental health.
Each one can improve the health of the
body by the use of natural food and the
dismissal of unnatural food.
The delicious feeling of health well re-
pays the attention and the charming bev-
erage, Postum, is comfort when properly
made.

COLLECTOR DEERING.
Charges Brought Against Him by
Nj. Fogg.

Charges Forwarded to Washington
Collector Deertng Says They Are Too
Trivial for Notice.
Saturday noon ex-Immigrant Inspector
George H. Fogg mailed to the President
of the United States formal charges
against Collector John w. Deering of
the Port of Portland and Falmouth.
Stripped of their legal language, the
charges are in substance, as follows:
First, Mr.. Fogg charges Collector
Deering with attempted political coer-
cion in violation of Rule L of the Civil
Service Act. Mr.. Fogg states in his long
document which he has sent to the
President that on the 18th day OF sep
TENDER, 1896, which was the Saturday
before the state election. MIR. Fogg was
1 formed that Collector Deering wanted
TO see him in his private office. Went
to Mr.. behring's office, Mr.. Fogg writes
the President, 'apd there Mr.. Deering
said TO me, I want TO give you some adj
vice. You are taking too active part
in the Bryan and Sowal club, and
should this be brought to the attention
Of the Washington authorities, it might
go hard with you.
Mr.. Deering also told Mr. Fogg, SO the
latter claims. that he should not make
himself SO conspicuous in the campaign
then going on.
The other two charges made by Mr..
Fogg against Collector Deering are gem
eral in character. In the second charge
he accuses Mr.. Deering of treating the
employees of the Custom house in an
abusive and ungentlemanly manner and
saws that he is prepared to furnish all the
necessary evidence to substantiate this
charge if called upon to do so.
In the third charge, which is also gen
eral in it's character, Mr.. Fogg states
that Collector Deering is incompetent
to administer the duties of his position,
that he leaves all of the work to be per-
formed by his subordinates because he is
incapable of attending to the duties
himself through lack of education and
ability. He further states that without
the assistance of his subordinates, Collec-
tor Deering would be unable to attend
to the duties of his position.
The charges are sworn to before Albert
E. Neal, "a justice of the peace of this
city, and signed by George H. Fogg. Mr..
Fogg asks that the charges against Col
lector Deering be investigated by the adj
ministration.
Collector John W. Deering was seen at
his home ON West street last evening,
and told of the charges. Mr.. Deering
had this to say on the subject: 81 have
nothing to say about the matter. pre-
sumo I must expect criticism as to my
official life as do all public officials.
AS for the charges do not know any
thing about them or what Mr.. Fogg has
presented, but from what have been
told about them they seem TOO frivolous
and contemplate for me to notice.

Washington, December 11.-Gardiner U.
Hubbard, director in the Bell Tele-
phone company and well known to pub
lie men, scientists and fnanciers, died
at Twin Oaks" his suburban residence,
q few miles from the city. at an early
hour this morning. His death was due

law in Boston until 1873, when he re-
moved to Washington to secure milder
climate. He early became interested in
the Bell telephone, and in 1878 retired
from the practice of law to devote himself
to its interests. He was the controlling
spirit in it's financial affairs, during the
next five years. After it was introduced
successfully in this country he crossed
to the old world, and organized the In

MES. He secured important CONCESSIONS
from the Russian government and in

the celebrated Berliner patent which he
SO managed as to prolong greatly the
Bell company's control of the telephone
field. He was appointed by President
Grant as special commissioner to report

reforms in the railway service. He was

THE JEFFERSON TONIGHT.

VIM. Barry, who is making such pro-
nounced hit in ''The Rising Generation"
will afford the patrons of this theatre,
one of the greatest treats of the season.
To those who have seen Mr.. Barly's char
acterization of Martin McShane, it is not
necessary to state that it surpasses even
the best of his efforts in days gone by.
In this play he has succeeded far beyond
ordinary expectations, but a desire to
soar higher in the dramatic armament
leads the comedian to announce that the
performance of The Rising Generation"
to be given next Monday and Tuesday,
will be the last opportunity of witnessing
that play in this Theatre.
The story of 'The Rising Generation"
carries a poor Irishman from poverty to
wealth. His family, the people he has to
do with, the various incidents, the bits of
pathos, the old style and the new style
OF dress and manners to which he must
adapt himself. his generosity. his general
experience, the songs and dances all go
to make play full of life, humor, move
ment, color and melody. The surprising
results of a poker game furnish an Incl
dent of much fun.
