FOOD RULES COMPLEXION.
Medicines of No Avail When Improper Food
 is Persisted In

A young lady whose first name is Blos- som, who was for many years misnamed, but is now properly named tells some in- terestng facts about her efforts to clear up her complexion, which in spite of all sorts of medicines and washes, face bleach, etc. etc., were ineffective, because the root of the difficulty was not removed
 Her own story is interesting. 'From childhood up l. with my sisters and broth CTS, have been allowed the use of both tea and coffee. After l became young lady of course it was no more than human that should wish for beautiful complexion like several of my companions, but which did not have. Many different courses were taken to accomplish my end, such as ap- plying face bleach, taking bottles and bot ties of cleansing medicines, etc., all to no purpose.
 My oldest sister had learned before me that coffee was the root of the difficulty and urged me to begin taking hot water. tried 1t. but could find little satisfaction in so weak and unpala table a beverage. While visiting friend one day, I accepted a cup of coffee Gas I supposed), when I noticed that this particular coffee had a hundred per cent better taste than the coffee we had been in the habit of using. Upon in quiring for the receipt of this very pleasing beverage, I learned that I had partaken Of the noted Postum Cereal Food Coffee.
 
 the morning beverage that I wanted, and this, it turned out, was the secret of the sbeautiful complexion of my friend. Of course we immediately commenced using it in our home, and I want to say that to- day not more healthy, robust family is to be found in the United States. and the fact is attributable to our abandonment of coffee and the use of Postum Cereal Food Coffee" We do not feel disposed to publish the full name of Miss Blossom, but the name can be given to those interested by letter to the Pestum Cereal Co.,, Ltd, Bat tie Creek, Mich. The young lady lives in Traverse City, Mich
 1t may be interesting to know that many of the young ladies' seminaries throughout the country have discontinued the use of coffee and are using Postum Food Coffee A letter from Rev. Alex Burr, Secretary of the Seattle, Wash, Young Ladies' Sem hnary. recites: We are using Postum Ger cal Food Coffffee on the table, greatly to the satisfaction of the faculty and a large number of boarding students"

CHAIRMAN GROVE
 ISSUES NEW CALL State Populist Convention to be
 Held May 2. WILL MEET AT AUDITORIUM Was Called to Meet at Montgomery on May To- But Meeting of National Convention on Earlier Date
 Necessitated Change
WILL MEET AT AUDITORIUM

Chairman G. B. Grove, os the state pop ulist committee, yesterday issued a call for the state convention of his party to meet in this city at the Auditorium on May g. The date formerly set for the convention was May 10, and Montgomery the place, but the national convention is to meet on the Sth of May, and that necessitated the earlier convention in this state.
 As stated in The Age-Herald yesterday, Dr. Grove advised the Commercial club on Friday that he would have the convention rneet in this city if the club would secure a suitable hall in which 1t could be held. The directors of the club instructed the secreta- ry to secure the Audi orium for that pur- pose, and this action having been commit nicated to Dr. Grove, he immediately changed the date and place from May 10 in Montgomery to May in Birmingham.

MT Tomlinson ever advocated in the slightest degree, any measure that would tend to reduce the wages of the working people Is known to emanate from those hired to circulate such reports, and will do him no harm. It is a known fact that the policies advocated by Mr. Tomlinson would result i'm raising the wages of all working people. Mr. Tomlinson's entire political career demonstrates that he lis the friend of organized labor. Political schemes VIII not take away the vote of the mem oers of these organizations from him. The fact is these organizations are composed Of men who think and act for themselves individually when 1t comes to political mat ters and many of whom have invested their earnings in homes and have children to educate Hence. they are taking up the fight with MT. Tomlinson in the effort to secure cheaper school books and many other needed reforms, all of which we nave assurances daily from the individual members of the different labor organiza- Hons of this district, as we'll as from a majority of the business and professional l.neS."
