Don't Let CareIessness Keep You
From Comfort.

Don't Let CareIessness Keep You
From Comfort.
Have you ever been disappointed in the
flavor Of your cup of Postum Food Coffee?
II so, you are the person we want to talk
to. Flavor and food value cannot be ex-
tracted from a food drink of this kind, If
1t is dripped or simmered A delicious
taste and cup full of nourishment can
be had quickly aud easily II the Postum
be allowed to keep up a clever boiling
for fifteen minutes after boiling begins.
Remember TO simply leave the pot on the
stove fifteen minutes will not answer.
Keep up the boil fifteen minutes after ac-
tive boiling commences.
This is simple, and If your health IS
worth looking after at all, Il is worth
having your Postum made good instead
Of sloppy, for when It is well boiled you
get the strength and body building ele-
ments as well as the charming flavor
Insist on having your beverage well made
and that cream or boiled milk be served
with 1t. 1t is just as easy to have Pos
tum well made as 10 have il made In a
sloyenly manner.
This talk on the preparation of Postum
IS called for from the fact that we have
heard lately of several people VINO cannot
drink coffee and tried Postum, but were
discouraged from the fact that ii was bad
" made. When it is served properly, AZ
makes and holds friends for life.

GLADSTONE A BULGARIAN.
A Turkish Paper Says That His Name
Was Originally GrOzading 3Jnr

w as ONAAS
From the New York Sun.
A biography of Mr.. Gladstone, published
in Turkish paper in the year 1876, when
the great statesman was breathing forth
threatenings and slaughter against the
Sultan, and calling on the nations TO
avenge the Bulgarian atrocities, presents
the Grand Old Man in a new light. The
article is entitled Gladstone, the Projec-
tor of Mischief" 1t says that the big
English statesman was the "son of the
headstrong passion of n Bulgarian named
Dimitri;" that he started in life as the
servant of one Nestory, a pig merchant,
and went to London In charge of some pigs
which his master desired to sell. When in
the British metropolis, wishing to be
known as an Englishman, he changed his
Bulgarian name OF Grozadin for Gladstone
His gluttony for gold" says the Turk
ish writer, makes Gladstone yellow. Ac-
cording to those who know him, he Is Of
mlddling hight, with a yellow face, wear
ing closely cut whiskers in the European
style, ana as a sign of his satanic spirit
the top of his head is bald, his evil tenn
per having made his haIrefall off,"

ANOTHER ISLAND.
Government to Hoist the Flag Over Wake
Island in Pacific Ocean.


Island in Pacific Ocean.
Washington, Dec. 2S-The government
has determined to hoist the flag over
another island far out in the Pacific
ocean, and orders were sent out today
to the commander of the Bennington
Capt Taussig, to proceed at once tc
take possession in the name of the gov
eminent of the United States of Wake
island, lying in latitude 10 north, longi-
tude 16S east.
1t is distant about 1000 miles from Nj
hau, the westernmost of the Hawaiian
island. and 1900 miles east from Guam.
1t is almost in a direct line between
these possessions of the United States,
and is admirably adapted for use as a
station for a Pacific cable to connect
the Philippines with Hawaii and the
United States. IT is about three miles
In length, and encloses a lagoon of salt
water. The average height of the ISL
and IL eight feet above high tide 1t is
scarcely capable in itself of sustaining
life, but it is expected that a cable sta
ton can be maintained without dill
Guilty by the erection Of a condenser
to supply fresh water
Wake island is said to be by right
already American territory, for in 1851
Admiral Wilkes surveyed the place and
asserted title. 1t is not inhabited, so
far as known, at the present time,
though in the past some guano gather
ers have temporarily lived on the ISL
and. The Bennington Is now at Homo
lulu, and the orders to her go out by
steamer.
