slty of Virginia team and that OF
Lehigh University resulted in score
of 10 to in favor of the Virginia boys.

be transferred from Charlottesville to

The firing" of the new crop of tea is a
very interesting sight in Kobe, Yokohama
and other towns. Some Of the larger firms
employ more than 1000 girls and women.
hundreds of whom work all day long with
a baby tied in its bed upon their back. y
number of men are packing and carrying
the caddies of tea.
The tea is put in large basins with
charcoal fire under each, and the women
and girls stir the tea constantly with their
hands. The workers elbow each other and
are almost as crowded as bees. The whole
multitude keeps up a chant with much va
ration all day. Dust is thick, and the odor
of the tea almost overpowering. Babies
yell above the chattering, the laughter and
the shouts of the army of workers, and
amid the swelling song. There is a con-
tnual noise, rising and falling in volume
with occasional louder screams and shouts.
The workers gather as early as 4:3O a. m.
gossip until & am, then work until night
for Is cents daily. They are paid off each
day and re-employed the next morning
They are healthy. robust, full of mirth and
apparently very happy.

The minister's Coffee.

HURT HIM WORSE THAN The DEVIL DID.
II used the old-fashioned coffee from my baby
hood. and like many others, thought could not
live without it. Was in the army four years dur

in health. 1 compelled to quit the active
work of the ministry for more than a year at q
time, suffering terribly from stomach and intes-
final troubles End torpid liver, with the conse-
and rheumatism.
-Four years ago, being confined to bed with
these troubles and liberation of the liver, my
physician positively forbade the Of coffee and
brought me some Postum Cereal Food Coffee.
Since that time, myself and family have used no
other coffee. All my intestinal trouble has been
greatly relieved. and / no longer suffer from
rheumatism anu very little from torpid liver or
biliousness.
II am fully convinced that coffee is very largely
responsible for the greater part Of all stomach,
Intestinal and liver troubles from which people
suffer I am SO years DID, and my health
has been so much improved that I do much
work as ever did, and with about much COM
fort I conscientiously attribute it chiefly to
the use of Postum Cereal Food Coffee. There are
several friends VINO have had valuable experience
with the leaving of Of coffee and the use Of
Postum Food Coffee. 1t gives me pleasure to add
my testimony to help humanity to understand
that the very general cause Of sickness Is, con-
