Has an Interesting History.

The Dismal Swamp in Virginia has
played an important part In the history
Of the country. As far back as l74O it af-
forded a refuge for the Indians, who
were being driven out Of the country
by the colonists. The hardy patriots Of
the Revolution fed there when hard
pressed by the British, causing the
swamp TO be hardly less famous than
the morasses in which Marion and
Pickens took refuge in the Carolina
campaigns. During the civil war thous-
snds of slaves took advantage Of its i'm.
penetrable shades. into which they were
followed after the contest by bands Of
Confederate guerrillas, who held out for
months after Lees surrender at Appom-
sttox Chicago Times'Herald.

A PUNGENT FOOD DRINK
With tine Taste of Coffee.

"Perhaps no one has suffered more from the use of coffee or failed oftener in the attempt to leave it off than have. AL though I never drank more than half n cup at time, 1t even then gave me sour stomach and whole catalogue of misery. This kept up for long period, ana time and again 1 have resolved that I positively would drink no more coffee; but, alas, the rest of the family used it, and, like the reformed drunkard who smells whisky afio falls again. when 1 smelled coffee l could not resist it.
 "Finally we came to try Postuni FoSS Coffee and my trouble was over at once. There l had my favorite beverage-a crisp, dark brown, rich coffee, with fine pungent coffee taste, and yet with no sour stomach or nervous troubles after it. On the con trary, 1 have gained gradually in strength and sturdy health. Ali who have spoken to me about Postum agree, and we have found it so, that the directions for making it must be followed, and 1t must be boiled at least fifteen minutes, or more, and it also requires the addition of good cream. We have tried boiling it few minutes when in a special hurry but found it in- sipiu and unsatisfactory; whereas by proper boiling, it is dark and rich, with d delight 1ul HaNOr.
 "Dr. McMillan of Sunbeam, H., said he had used Postum and found 1t to be just as good as coffee, and more healthful. He is an M. D. of fine standing. MT. David Strong and sister have left off coffee and are using Postum. They find it much more healthful. Rev. w. T. Campbell, pastor of the Second United Presbyterian Church of this city, says: You may say anything good that you wish about Postum Food Coffee and will substantiate it. He was a very great lover of coffee, and yet found it very injurious to his health He now drinks Postum three times day and the oid troubles have disappeared
 "I shrink from having my name appear in public. The statement have given you is truthful and l hope will aid some people to discover that coffee is the cause of their aches and ails, and they are in way to get lid of their troubles by leaving off cof- fee and taking up Postum Food Coffee"
 This lady lives at Monmouth, Ili, and her name can be given by letter, upon ap- plication to the Postum Cereal Co.,, Ltd, makers of Postum, at Battle Creek. Mich.
