COFFEE FOR MOTHERS
The Kind That Nourishes and
Supplies Food For Mother
and Child.

My husband has been unable to drink
coffee for several years so we were very
glad to give Postum Food Coffee a trial,
and when we understood that by long
boiling il would bring out the delicious
flavor. we have been highly pleased
with it.
1t is one of the finest things for nurs-
ing mothers that 1 have ever seen. 1t
keeps up the mothers strength and in
creases the supply of nOurishment for
the child if partaken of freely. 1 drank
II between meals instead of water and
found it most beneficial
Our five year old boy has been very
delicate since birth and has developed
slowly He was white and bloodless. L
began to give him Postum freely and
you would be surprised at the change.
When any person remarks about the
great Improvement, we never fail to
tell them that we attribute his gain in
strength and general health, to the free
use Of Postum Food Coffee, and this has
LED many friends to use it for them
selves and children.
have always cautioned friends to
whom 1 have spoken about Postum
to follow directions in making it. for
unless it is boiled fifteen or twenty min
utes, il is quite tasteless. On the other
hand, when properly made. it is very de-
1icious. I want TO thank you for the
benefits we have derived from the use
of your Postum Coffee. Mrs. w. w.

HARVARD ALUMNI
Banquet at Which Ambas sador Cam
bon Made a Speech.

Cambridge, Mass June 29-The
browning event of Harvard's com
mencement was the alumni dinner,
which took place in memorial hall after
the graduation exercises. The guests
included President Eliot, Ambassador
Jules CambOn. Alexander Agassiz,
General Leonard Wood, Governor Roger
Wolcott and Admiral Sampson. Pres
ident Eliot opened the speech making
by reporting gifts of $1,250,O00 to the col
lege during the year. Governor WolcOtt
followed in a brief address and Ambas-
sador Cambon was introduced.
The French ambassador spoke in
French and took occasion to refer to the
part he had taken in restoring peace
betwe en- the United States and Spain
and to thank Harvard for comforting on
him the degree of Ii. D He said:
I feel unable to express to you how
deeply L appreciate the honor Harvard
university has done me by comforting
upon me the dignity of doctor of laws.
1 am proud to belong hereafter to your
university, the oldest in America and
am touched when 1 realize that thought
which prompted the bestOwaI of this
honor upon me, possibly had in view a
higher aim than any personal to me L
can not forget that a very long time
ago, one Cf my predecessors, the Mar
quis de la LuZerne, who in 1871 repre-
scented in this country King Louis XVI,
was also made by Harvard an honorary
doctor of laws. At that time the United
States had hardly emerged from the
heroic struggle which insured her indie
pendence. France had then lent you
her assistance and your university in
scribed the name of her representative
among those Of your honored ones.
That was over a century ago.
Last year providence designated
France to take the hand of your adj
versary of yesterday, to place it into
yours and to clasp both in her own.
was the chosen instrument of the HUI
manitarian idea which inspired this act
by these feeling alone was I guided. AL
low me to thank you for the personal
honor you have shown me, as you did
in early days to Marquis de la Luzerne
because you thereby testify once more
to the traditional friendship of our two
nations.
LAS for myself, whose profession
brings me in daily contact with the real
titles of public life, it is a rare good
fortune to find myself in this atmos-
phere of learning and culture 1 am a
son of the University of Paris, a son
of that glorious seat of learning the
SarbOnne. There it was that Dante, in
The middle ages, leaving Florence, came
to pursue his studies. In those days no
frontiers circumscribed the dominion of
art and science. And may we not hope
that my presence at this distinguished
gathering suggests that there continues
to exist the same untrammeled spirit
which makes the world of art and let
tiers something more than the heritage
of any one country"

PORTER OFF FOR EUROPE.
Gave Out a Statement Before He
Sailed.

New York, June 29-Robert P. Por-
ter sailed on the American line steamer
St. Paul for Europe, to complete econo-
mic Investigations in Russia
Before he sailed he gave out a pre-
pared statement concerning his Cuban
and Porto Rican tariff and fiscal work.
He says, in his statement, that the fiscal
machinery of the two islands was work.
little in excess of his estimate and eX-
ceeded in Cuba the amount collected by
the Spanish authorities, in spite of the
fact that the duties have been lowered
two-thirds. When Cuba came into our
possessions in January a state of fiscal
chaos reigned in every custom house
except those in the Santiago province
Today the revenue is completely and
honestly collected and the work per-
formed as carefully as in our own Gus
toms houses.
"A large number of cases involving
rates and administrative features his
statement continues, have, since my
return, been submitted to me for infOr-
nation and suggestion and in nearly
all instances those intricate questions
have been efficiently and intelligently
passed upon by our officials in Cuba in
a manner that could not be improved
upon by our own custom houses. There
is a good deal of moOnShine about the
army officials not being good in BUSH
ness. Those who doubt the business
capacity of our army men should study
the important custom houses of Cuba"
THE future of Cuba in my opinion,
can only lie in annexation and the
longer the Cubans in Cuba and the
anti-eXpausionists in the United States
continue to deceive themselves and the
people by suggesting any other solU-
ton, the longer capital and enterprise
will be held back from the island. Cuba
must have a good government and this
she will achieve by becoming in due
course of time a state of the United
States.
I'VE cannot, in my opinion, make
special treaty with Cuba as an indie
pendent state. The United States is
responsible for Cuba, and that respon-
sibility is recognized throughout the
world. Aside from this reason, how can
we overcome the most favored nation
clause in our treaties? Shall we give
Cuba tariff concessions which we can
not and ought not to accord to other
nations?
so far as the treaties which have
just been concluded with the British
colonies of Trinidad, Barbados, British
Guiana. and probably Jamaica, offer the
20 per cent reciprocal reductions on Su-
gar, they will, of course, discriminate
against Cuban sugar With Porto Rico
annexed and sugar from the Hawaiian
islands free, we shall have two hum
drel thousand tons coming in at re-
duced duty by treaty and $780, pounds
free from the Hawaiian islands and
Porto Rico which, together will be a
serious matter for the Cuban sugar
nrOduc6rS.''
