she had tried Postum before and it was
weak and tasteless, but when she found
out that it must be boiled quite long

and the taste. she adopted it and is now
using it entirely. Her children IS we'll as

VIRGINIANS FAVOR HILL.
Many Of the Delegates Wan, Him for
Vice PreSiIl en1

There is no doubt about the fact that
Senator David B. Hill will have strong
following among the Virginia delegation
for the second place on the Democratic
ticket, If Senator Daniel shall decline to
allow his name to be used in that connec-
ton.
Governor Tyler. who is one Of the dele
gates-at-larse. and who will in all likeli-
hood be made chairman of the delegation
at Kansas City. has strong Hill leaninss,
and the same may be said Of a great many
of the other delegates and alternates.
Captain W. w. Baker. of Chesterfield,
ulo is an alternate-at-larse. favors the
New Yorker, and Senator Bland Massie,
trict is out-spoken in his advocacy.
II is probable that the Third District
Will vote soiidly for him. Mr.. John r.
Buchanan and Manning think the man
should come from New York. and will
most likely prefer the ex-senator TO any
other man from that State.
Other members of the State delegation,
notably ex-senator B. f. Buchanan, Of
Smyth, hold TO the same opinion and it
would not be at all surprising if the dele
cation should get together at Kansas City
and cast the entire vote Of the State for
the Elnlira leader.
Colonel Joseph Button is one of those
who does not believe Hill would make The
strongest candidate who could be nominated
and Congressman John Lamb is highly in
favor of the nomination of Mayor Carter
Harrison, of Chicago.
