buried because they appear dead and
there is no physician present to pass
judgment upon them

COULDN'T DRINK COFFEE.


| \ =
And you might bring me a cup of
restaurant waiter when giving an
order. ,',-.e
What makes you call for weak
coffee. SAM" friend remarked.
20. 1 have no business to drink coffee
any how, but don't care for chocolate
or tea, and do like coffee. although it
raises the old harry with my nerves
and stomach"
Many a man fails in business because
of his physical inability to attend to it
properly. When a man wakes up and
looks squarely at himself and his af-
fairs he will break off those habits that
weaken his body and prevent him
from pushing his plans to a successful
issue.
Tobacco and coffee seem so harmless
that man feels they cannot hurt MIN
seriously and for that reason sticks to
them day after day until his nerves
give out and long period of nervous
prostratiOn sets in. While a man Is
sick his business goes towel. expert
ence shows that it don't go right. and
that a sick spell is a wonderfully ex-
pensive investment.
Quit the poisonous habits, and nature
will slowly rebuild the broken system
without the use of medicines.
1t is not so hard to give over conee
when one can have Postum, q beverage
which looks like the finest Mocha cof-
fee. and creams up with the golden
brown of rich old Java. 1t is very
nourishing and fattening. and has the
pungent. piquant taste demanded by
the coffee drinker. at the same time II
can be used by children as well as
adults.
Nothing which nature furnishes Is
superior to the grains for making gray
matter in the brain and nerve centers.
Postum. the food drink, is made wnoi-
ly and entirely of the grains. 1t can
truly be said to make red blood. In
comparison with coffee its cost Is about
one-third. Grocers sell it, or the POS
tum Cereal Company Cimited) OF battie
Creek. Mich. send enough for nity
cups for 25 cents.
Beware of the fraudulent limitations

Ellsworth American: Speaking of a
ichoolhouse in West Franklin of which
our correspondent said last week was
unfit for school at any time of the

If it be the towns duty to look after

nal writer does not appreciate the feel
ing against the present system of
town supervision of schools which still
exists in many of the rural districts.
AS an example of the extremes to
which this feeling may reach. it is only
necessary to cite the case of a resident
of one of the outlying districts of Ellis
worth. who drove into the city to noti-
fy the superintendent of schools that
he shutters on the school building.

The Kneipp cure stories have re-

who went to his last sleep in Rangeley

is said of him that his remedy for cold
feet-a remedy he did not hesitate to
apply to himself or recommend to his
friends-was to take off his shoes and
stockings and walk in the snow.
1t would indeed be more blessed to
give than receive if all recipients were
like the Portland young man who died
a few days ago. One of his last acts
was to arrange that his few savings
should go to the charitable organiza-
tions that helped him when i'll several
years before. There's no danger in Civ
ing to such as he, when they may be
found.

Weaving their wizard spells on plain

The moon arose and set and gave ne

The river freezing in the reeds grew
The shuddering stars were hid behind tn

And ali the hollow winds were wailins
loud.
Where stood the ricks. three antique

Like those whose alabaster domes are
seen.
In old Benares, or far Samarcand,
Half hid in groves of lime and citror
green.
With slender minarets whose crysta!
Burn in the sun with keen. prismatio
fires.
The pine is like a tall cathedral tower,
With oriels of withered ivy-vines
Entwined in sculptured shapes of wreath
and flower
Through which the clear, red stain OF
morning shines:
And underneath. the snow-draped shrubs
and briarS
Seem kneeling groups of silent white
robed friars.
No stone or bush but wears rare de-
vice '.t.
OF graceful semblance or ideal form,
Fair fantasy. or SumptuOuS editice: -.-

Had blent the magic arts of Prospero
With their own whimS and wrought
