POSTUM CEREAL.
THE MINISTER'S COFFEE.

Hurt Him Worse Than the Devil Did.
7 used the old-fashioued coffee from
my babyhood, and ike many others
thought I could not live without it.
Was in the army four years during the
Rebellion and came out very much
broken in health. I was compelled to
quit the active work of the ministry
for more than a year at a time, suf-
feripg terribly from stomach and in
testinai troubles and torpid liver, with
the consequent nervous headache and
prostrat tion, iumbago and rheumatism.
-Four years ago, being confined to
bed with these troubles and liberation
of the liver, my physician positively
forbade the use 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
and very little from torpid liver or bill
iOusnesS.
Il am fully convinced that coffee is
very largely responsible for the greater
part of all stomach, intestinal and liver
troubles from which people suffer. l
am now 5S years old. and my health
has been so much improved that / do
as much work as I ever did, and with
a bout as much comfort | can con-
scientiously attribute it chiefly to the
use Of Postum Cereal Food Coffee.
There are several friends who have had
valuable experience with the leaving
off Of coffee and the use of Postum
Food Coffee. 1t gives me pleasure to
add my testimony to help humanity

cause of sickness is, l consider, largely
attributable to mistakes in the use of

Under this head the Senate reported
to the House that they had passed a
bill regulating the sale of process or
renovated butter; also, bill for the
appropriation of $500 for a portrait of
Ex-Governor Budd. A curious thing
about this was that the Assembly bill
appropriating $500 for the same pur-
pose had just been passed in the House
and ordered transmitted to the Sen
ate, so that the bills crossed each other.
Wade offered q resolution that he

Attaches. It was that the Sergeant-at-
Arms should provide a room for all the
stenegraphers and typewriters of the
Assembly and that they should remain

Dor of San Francisco, which had been

BULLA AMENDS.
Bulla offered an amendment reduc-
ing the rate of interest on the bonds
in question from per cent.
to 81 per cent. per annum.
The amendment was adopted, where
upon he offered another to Section 4,
providing the State of California
shall be preferred purchaser at par OF
the whole or any portion of any issue
of said bonds.
SMITH. ASKS QUESTIONS.
.Braunhart took kindly to the amend
ment but Smith asked questions. He
wanted to know whether such an
amendment would not make the bill
bit of special legislation, and whether
| it would not therefore be in conflict
with the Constitution. He wanted to
know how the State, which issued the
bonds, could purchase bonds which it
itself had issued. He thought that the
Regents of the State University, or the
State Board of Examiners might be
authorized to purchase the bonds. but
was opposed to allowing the State to
compete with the people who COM
posed it.

Spanish treaty. the Post-Intelligencer
calls Senator Turner "Silver Repub-
lican." Why not lake him at his
word and call him Popnlist? His
luminosity ard vindictiveness toward
anything Republican have been so
pronounced since he negotiated with a
Populist legislature for seat in the
senate that there does not appear to
be any excuse for calling him Repub'
lican of any sort, even if there were
any excuse for the appropriation OF the
Republican name by deserters to the
lost cause of free silver. Turner is
mongrel in politics and is no longer
able to read his title clear to the respect
of any party. He knows well enough
that he did not represent the views OF
tenth part of the people of this state
in his vote against the peace treaty, or
in his rnaglignant and mendacious
speech against the policy of the Re
publican national administration. 1t
is much to be regretted that his vote
is likely to nullify that of Senator
elect Foster on all questions of broad
national policy that comes before the
senate during the next four years.
