rwo TAILS
Also Two Tales

Several years ago one OF the popular
humorists, scientifically inclined, con-
cluded to make some experiments with
iced tea, the popular summer drink. The
result of his Investigations is given in
his own words:
II secured a sample of the tea at one
of the restaurants in town, to get fair
average of the article used. took tea
spoonful of the liquid to the household
pump; 1t was stirred into a large tub
filled with water and in a moment the
color of the tea had disappeared. Any
one will admit that this solution would
seem harmless, even to the healthy low
er animals We had some young puppies
in the barn yard and procured two Of
the smallest of them. They were allow
cd to lap at the liquid and then their
heads were held under the water for fif-
| teen minutes. 1t resulted in the death of
both the puppies and the dangerous
properties of the decoction were made
apparent"
1t is all very well to have bit of fur.
from the experiments in food and drink,
but there are many nowadays who are
really hurt, and hurt seriously, from the
use of coffee.
Anew breakfast beverage has been pro-
duced which looks like coffee in the deep
seal brown color and which changes to
the rich golden brown of thick Mocha
when cream is added. 1t has been in
troduced extensively this season and is
made from cereals. the common grain of
the field. 1t is nourishing and healthful,
without having the hurtful properties
of coffee. The weakest stomach can
handle the grain coffee and the taste and
the color is so agreeable and coffee-like
that it fills the place nicely. This food
drink, Postum, can be given to small
children regularly for coffee at breakfast
and is nourishing and fattens their bod
les. 1t is a liquid food made from the
grains the Creator intended for mans
subsistence. Manufactured by the
Postum Cereal Co., Linn, Battle Creek

A DIVIDED FAMILY
Suit to Have an Administrator Act
o.. Declared Void

Declared VOID
A rather interesting suit has been be-
gun by Mrs. May Airing, at present re-
siding in Pennsylvania, against ]. A.
Neel and Ella A. Neel his wife, to annuI
certain deed.
1t appears that when J. S. Neel, the

January, 1896, is estimated to be. worth
about $500, with the handsome frame
building that stands upon it.

OF the deceased was probated and j. A.
Neel was appointed administrator.
Shortly after his appointment and with
out so it is. alleged. having petitioned
the court for permission to sell real es-
tate, he sold out the property, and or

ment Of the superior court an instrument

tition for confirmation" 1t was therein
set forth that lot of the Hoover tract
had been sold at private sale to Mrs.
Ella A. Neel for $4,000. $1,000 in gold and
the balance to be paid at the confirmation
of sale.
The sale was approved by Judge Clark,
but now comes the plaintiff alleging that
1t was ,fraudulently made; that Neel, in
fact. made. the sale to himself. and he
sought to vest title in his wife in trust
for himself, and that Mrs. Neel has no
separate estate and had not and has not
now money to pay anything like $4,000.

been in California since NeePs appoint
