A SEASIDE EXPERIENCE.
Little Quiet Joke on the Family.

While we were at the seaside last
summer sprung little experiment on
my family, noticed that husband
and the children were all lacking in
energy and go. and something seemed
wrong with them.
We had been using coffee every
morning, and it gradually dawned upon
me that perhaps this was the cause.
Without saying anything, bought
a package Of the Postum Food Coffee
and having been warned to look out
and see that 1t was PROPERLY made I
gave my own special attention to It.
For about week we used 1t and not
one of the family knew but what they
were drinking the best coffee. When
I finally told them that it was Postum
my husband laughed and said: Let us
continue on the Postum. I have been
feeling very much better for the past
week and didn't exactly know why.''
The difference In the whole family is
very marked, and you can imagine I
can recommend Postum with good
grace and much pleasure Mrs. Alice

WAS WILLIAM SNUBBED?

County Auditor Johnson Figuring
on u Piece of Official Etiquette.
County Auditor Billy Johnson is busy
days figuring out whether he
has been snubbed by the city hall and
court house commission, and, if so, if
Mayor Kiefer had anything to do with
it.
BY virtue of his office the county
auditor is supposed to act as secretary
Of the commission, although this duty
has sometimes been delegated to a
deputy. For some time Deputy Auditor
Drummond has been guiding the board
through the kinks created by the
mayors parliamentary tactics. At a
recent meeting Mr.. Johnson was pres
ent and very much interested. He had
decided to do the secretary act him
self. After he had been ordered to re-
move his hat by the mayor the COM
mission went through the form of elect
ing Mr.. Johnson secretary and then
tackled on a request that Mr.. Drum
mond be permitted to continue to act.
The auditor is still wondering where

reduce the license fee from 5000 to 800
Only four licenses have been taken
out thus far in 1899, and the inspector
thinks few, If any more, will be taken
out If the fee remains at 5000, but many
will illegally conduct their business
under cover He is Of the opinion
that much more revenue can be OBJ
tanned by reducing the fee, and that
the city will have better oversight and
control of the business.
The members of the committee dis
cussed 1t to some extent, but took no
action, because Of the absence of some
of the members, and the ordnance
had not yet been introduced in either
branch of the council; but the express
sions of the aldermen present seemed
to be against the measure.
The committee approved nineteen ap-
plications for liquor licenses, there be-
ing no opposition, and recommended
that the licenses be granted.

OF six decisions handed down in the
supreme court yesterday written by
| Associate Justice Collins three were
reversals of the lower judicial power
The court makes an important ruling
on the subject of business transactions
on Sunday, which Is the first which
has been had under the present statute.
1t holds that private transactions eff
fected on Sunday are valid and can be
enforced, as the law simply prohibits
the public sale of property and Of
labor. This clause, the court says, does
not affect Contracts or casual sales
made privately" In the case of George
Ward against Jane T. Ward, involving

OF the lower court.

3. The present law. G. s. supra, section

d. Held, that the evidence produced upon
the trial of this action which was brought
to recover the alleged value OF certain farm
products sold In separate lots or parcels, each
of value Of more than $50, was sufficient to
sustain finding that subsequent to the al

him from an earlier defeat, Half dozen

start, yet it was so uneven that it failed to
stir the crowd to very high pitch of en-
thusiasm. Walcott showed improved form
al the increased weight, and was wonder
fully clever. He frequently lashed his laft
into O'Brien's ribs, raised it to the neck and
