OLD SAWS.
Old Proverbs Don't Always Hold
Good.

"Old saws are sometimes broken. A man
convinced against his will is of his own opin-
ion still" I have seen that badly smashed.
a friend came in TO see me some time ago
while 1 was in bed with nervous prostration.
The physician had strictly forbidden me to
use coffee. and 1 had tried a little Postum
Cereal Food Coffee, but the way it was
served it tasted so fiat that / broke the
rules of the doctor and occasionally drank
a cup of coffee although each time L
suffered for it, During her conversation she
asked me why 1 didn't try Postum. oh,
l said, Il have tried that but it's no use,
l can't drink it" She laughed out loud and
said: why, my dear. you have been inn
posed upon. If you once have Postum made
right you will be in love with it from that
time on" 1 listened to her with little in
terest and much incredulity but she kept
on insisting
Shortly after, when / recovered a little,
was visiting friends house, who asked me
if l would like a cup of Postum, and when
it was served it tasted no better than mine
had. so YOU see / had apparently a most
thorough experience with the taste of
Postum. and / knew its taste to be decidedly
fiat and insipid.
health / must drink it, and so when j got
home and was a little stronger deter
mined to see if it could not be made to taste
better. | looked at the package carefully
and found that the directions We're very
plain, that the Postum must be allowed
actual boiling of at least t1fteen minutes. L
put it on in cold water. IT took about III
teen minutes before it commenced to boil;
then / allowed it to bubble and boil fifteen
minutes more and after it had settled l
poured out cup, which certainly was as
rich a dark brown cup of coffee as l ever
saw in my life, and when cream ana sugar
were added 1 was amazed at the taste
fIz,, bod Xfh
From that time on you can imagine knew
to certainty when it was served at the
table whether Postum had been boiled long
enough or not There is as much difference
as between night and day. Postum under
boiled is fiat, and boiled as it should be is
one of the most delicious beverages a
woman ever tasted 1t is strange that peo-
pie try and try again and rake Postum in
so sloVenly a manner that they fail to get
the delicious flavor from it. l, of course
have no temptation to go back to common
coffee for / have the finest coffee twice
day and find it safe pleasant, healthful and
strengthening to the nerves.

Change in Benton County Circuit One
of Them.

The House committees yesterday after
noon tried to settle down to work. but
majority of the committees which we're
called failed to have a quorum. The ways
and means committee met long enough to
map out the work and for the members to
become acquainted with each other. w.
K. Snavely, of Wabash, is the clerk of this
committee. The judiciary committee went
to work at once. The committee decided
to favorably report the bill presented by
Mr.. Artman, of Boone, providing that
action can be brought against any corpora
ton in any county where there is an agent
of the corporation who can be served. An
other bill of Mr.. Artman's providing that
when a judge goes into another county to
hold court he shall not receive the addi-
tional s. day, as the law now allows him,
will also be favorably reported The bill
of Mr.. Brown, of De Kalb, for protection
of purchasers of patent rights by requiring
that an affidavit as to the validity of the
patent shall be made and flied with the
clerk of courts of the county wherein the
sale is made, Will also be faVorably re-
ported But one bill was indefinitely post
poned by the committee, and that was by
Mr. Knots, of Lake, for IiegaliIzing acts
pired. Practically the same bill was sent
over from the Senate and passed under
suspension OF the rules on TUESDAY =
courts decided to favOrably report the bill
of Mr.. Hall, of Benton, whereby his county
is taken from Judge Thompson's circuit and
put in that of Judge Rabbi The bill is the
result of the quarrel between the bar and
the court of that county.
The county and township business COM
mittee had many measures to consider. The
bill of Mr.. Canada, of Randolph, amending
the road laws so that the time for working
the roads is extended to oct. 1. will be
favorably reported. The bill of Mr. Feist.
of Dearborn, to divide a township in three
districts and have three trustees, one for
each district, was indefinitely postponed. The
bill of Mr.. Herod, of Johnson, providing for
spring elections for township officers, was
likewise indefinitely postponed. The great
er number of bills referred to this committee
will not be acted upon until the bills framed
by the county and township commission
have been presented.
The other committees failed to secure
quorums and no other meetings were held.
Charles L. Hanna, of this city has been
appointed clerk of Group 5. Miss leila Miller
has also been appointed a clerk.

SCHOOL BOARD SINKING FUND.
Some Suggestions Made by Controller
johnson.

Edward Daniels, member of one OF the
Commercial Clubs committees that are I'M
dertaking to draft law governing the
schools of indianapolis, to be presented to
the LEGISLATURE, has conferred with Con-
troller e. NJ Johnson concerning financial
features of the proposed bill. Mr. Daniels
informed Mr. Johnson that there is float
ing school debt of about 100000, most OF
which has been borrowed to build school
houses. Mr.. Johnson suggested that some
sort of sinking fund provision ought to
be made He estimated that a small levy
in fifteen years would produce a sum sufti-
cient to pay off this debt. Meantime, he
said. the board should have the power to
refund this floating debt, part of which
bears a heavy rate of interest. Mr.. john
son is confident it could be refunded for 312
per cent. interest and that enough premium
would be paid by investors to build a school
house or two Refunding bonds might run
twenty-five or thirty years, with the pr1Yi-
lege of redemption after fifteen years. Mr..
Johnson urged that such safeguards should
be placed about Il sinking fund as to pre-
vent it's dissipation to any other purpose.
A provision should be made, he said, by
which it could be kept invested in good Sc
curities He believes there should be some
provision by which the School Board might
make temporary loans from the sinking
of interest were paid it would simply be to
the benefit of the taxpayers instead of the
banks. There was some such provision as
this in the bill providing for a sinking fund
for the city introduced two years ago, and
which may be revived.

PNEUMATIC SWEEPERS AGAIN,
Municipal Contract Awarded to Rob-
ert w. Furnas.

The Board of Works yesterday received
bids for sweeping and cleaning improved
streets this year. Robert w. Furnas was
awarded the contract for $4,000, figure
very much lower than his competitors. This
is to cover the season extending from
March Is to Dec. 10. For the three winter
months the contractor is to receive 10 cents
for each sweeping of 10000 square feet, the
work to be done as often as the board may
require For all new pavements made next
summer $115 a week for each 10000 square
feet is to be paid On the basis of payment
by each 10000 square feet Of area, Furnas
bid IL 40-100 cents.
The Union Sweeping. Company bid 16 cents
on each 10000 square feet-$0l,OOO Tor the en-
tire city the nine summer months, and the
same price for area sweeping In the winter
months, and on new paVementS as the main
bid, 16 cents. The bid of the Capital Sweep
ing Company was $53500 for the entire city
the nine summer months, 10 cents for each
10000 square feet the balance of the year,
and on the basis of area measurement 14s4
cents.
The contract having been awarded to r.
w. FurnaS the pneumatic sweeping ma
chimes will again be put in use. The board
was surprised at the low bid made. Last
year about $50 900 was expended for street
sweeping. What the extra sweeping in the
winter months will aggregate had not been
ascertained by the board yesterday, but 1T
was asserted it would be comparatively
small

PRIMARY ELEC ZION LAW.
Great Variance of Opinion as to What
1t should Be.

Representative Roose, Of Elkhart county,
some time ago commenced an exhaustive in
vestigation of the desires of both parties
as to a primary election law. He sent out a
large number of letters to members of all
parties, with the intention of framing a bill
on the subject. but the replies he has re-
ceived have induced him to change his mind.
He finds that while all agree on the desir-
ability of primary election law, yet the
opinions as to what the law should contain
are so varied that but few hold the same
views. The greatest objection that he has
met with as far a general law is con-
cerned is that it will be too expensive. He
is satisfied there would be a protest against
all the people paying for the primary of one
party and yet the expense under almost
any kind of a law, would be such that the
candidates would be unable and unwilling 10
bear it, Mr. Roose is watching the different
bills that are coming in on this question
with interest. He will not frame one, he
cannot see now how to draw IL so as to
meet with general approval.

A Woman'S Face
PLEASANT FEATURES ADD TOAER ATTRACTIONS
This is Something all Women Can Have or Easily Acquire Some

all can have or easily acquire. It's simply
obtained by cleanliness, air, light, diet, cxer-

Many a woman is continually cross, mo-.

exactions of household cares, or the condi-
ditions incident to her sex. But back of this
and the cause Of all the trouble, will be
found that the system is out of order the
blood needs toning up. When this is done
there follows, buoyancy of feeling, and a
merry household.
The preservation Of a woman's graces and

Every woman desires to be a picture Of

perfect proportions, for without the vitality
of good spirits which good health denotes, no

Many a woman is regretfully watching the
growing pallor of her cheeks, the coming
wrinkles, the thinness that becomes more
distressing every day. The best way to over
come this and acquire the pleasant look in a
woman's face is expressed in the following
story told by Mrs. A. Fox, an esteemed resi-.
