| one. | have always rather disdained
fads and disliked Pigments of the i'm
agination, but there are few facts

From early childhood | have used
coffee. The taste was no doubt
hereditary, coming from long line
of coffee loving ancestors, who be-
queathed me a complexion to match.
When others spoke of the injurious
effect of coffee, | smiled in Il lofty
sort of way and took an extra cup,
and when 4 friend who is an excellent
Judge of the good things of this world
left off coffee and tried Postum, | re-
garded her as the victim of a fad, and
told her so.
Finally my health began to fail,
and l thought perhaps there might be
some truth in the statement that cOf-
fee was ut the bottom of it, so l tried
leaving it off, but the meals were no
meals at all.
That was not imagination, neither
was the headache, morbid listlessness

weakness. Try my plan" my
friend said, and in my extremity, |
finally yielded. She gave me some
Postum which | boiled about five
minutes and slipped it somewhat dis
painfully. The color was good and
the fragrance, but the taste was flat.
When my friend inquired, she shook
her head and smiled. Five minutes.

The lola Cash Grocery sold.

4 lien county will receive with'a GER
tain regret the announcement that
Fred Hale has sold his lola Cash
Grocery" For some time he has been
figuring with Messrs. Gross d Eyler,
and yesterday deal was consum-
mated whereby the new proprietors
will take possession on the 10th OF
next month. Messrs. Gross Il Eyler,
who already have a large store here,
were notified some time ago that they
would have to vacate the building
now occupied by thems and as they
are so we'll pleased with their present
trade and the prospects OF lola, they
were loath to leave. so they did the
next hest thing-bought one or the
very best stores in town.
Fred Hale has built up good bus
mess here, by strict attention 10 its
management; and the new prOprie-
tors are to be congratulated upon
stepping into such well-established
Institution. They will continue the
business on a strictly cash basis, and
will go under the name of 1.-THE lola
Cash Grocery and Dry Goods Co."
THE REGISTER congratulates the
old firm ON getting such an old-estab'
llshed business and location, and
has no doubt as to it's continued
success
Mr.. Hale has not yet decided what
he will do. He has offers from three
wholesale houses to go ON the roac
but is more seriously considering :
proposition to establish a wholesale
house here There Is no doubt br
that a good wholesale house here
would pay and with a man behind il
possessing the ability of Mr.. Hale i
would be doubly sure to be sue
cess. Whatever he decides to do
lola people will hope that it will keel
him in lola. Mr.. Hale desires the
REGISTER to thank the many reopl,
who have been his customers anC
friends while he was in business her,
and trusts that the same appreciation
of good store will be shown to hi
