upon long letter which Alfred Austin.

John Hay, the American secretary of
state, from Florence, Italy, on March

unity of the English speaking peoples
for equal copyright in all English
speaking countries for all books writ

The Standard, in an editorial note,
urges that copyright between Great
Britain and the United States should be
absolutely reciprocal and suggests that
uhe moment is propitious for an inter
national convention with the United
States.

Ingenious and genial manner in which
Mr.. Austin introduces the question by
pointing to the demonstration occa-
stoned by Mr.. Kipling's Illness as a
proof of the literary sympathy between
the two Countries says:

Hays reply, for he is a man of let

A BUSINESSLIKE UNCLE
Knew a Good Thing and Took 1t.

AS we were sitting down to supper
not long ago, in came Uncle ---.
who was invited to sit down to the ia
BILE, but declined. He was so troubled
with dyspepsia that he seldom took a
meal in the evening.
I'VE had Postum Food Coffee on the
table, and it was made good and strong.
not like some of the weak, thin stuff
some people make and think they are
getting real Postum; he supposed
it was regular berry coffee, and when
asked to take a cup, did so, remarking
that he felt the need of some kind of a
stimulant like coffee, but that he be-
lieved it always had a bad effect on
him, as in about an hour after drink
ing it he had queer sensation about
his heart and stomach, and always felt
worse than he did before drinking it.
but that he did not see how he could
get along without something of the
kind.
I'VE said nothing about the Postum
Food Coffee and the next evening
about the same time, uncle came in
again, very unexpectedly, and in his
business-like manner Immediately in
quired what brand of coffee we used.
He said, 1 did not have any of that
queer after sensation last night after
drinking your coffee, and 1 want to
know what kind it is
I'VE then told him it was Postum
Food Coffee, and that we were using it
because the other coffee did not agree
with some of us and that the Postum
did, and we all felt better from it.
Uncle is now enthusiastic in his praise
of Postum. Many people like he, have
perhaps been told of Postum, or have
read about it, but are either too sus-
picious or too busy to examine into the
mendous Importance of health, he
should give this subject his first atten-
