A NIGHT STRUGGLE.
Woman.s Fight with q Demon.

It is remarkable. the curious and diff
ferent ways coffee will affect the human
body. A little lady in Herximer, N. T.,
had an experience that may happen to
others, but it is not common
She says, Il am impressed with the
desire, not only to thank you personally
for relief. but realize that others may
have the same distressing symptoms
without thinking of the cause.
When I would drop asleep I would
seem to receive a perfect electric shock

I have persisted in the use Of Postum

poisoning, such as stomach trouble and
other symptoms, so he left off the cof-
fee and drinks Postum with me. This
has improved his health, and he says
he likes Postum better than he did the
old fashioned coffee
We might have been saved our trou-

coffee, but we were ignorant as are
thousands of others, and had to learn

of the city prison Thursday evening to
discuss the question of new uniforms.
A lively time ensued. Above the shouts
of "Orderl order!'' from the chairman
rose the voice of every man of the
force who wanted a uniform to his own
liking. The merits of seventeen kinds
of hats and helmets were advertised at
the same time. One officer thought the
force should be clad in green trousers
and pink shirt waists trimmed with
point lace. Another thought that linen

cH1cAGo's MILK SUPPLY.
rr1.a.Ia,J
IHomestead.l


Few people realize the magnitude Of
the milk trade in city like Chicago, or
the injustice with which the amount
which consumers pay for it is distrib-
uted. 1t is estimated that from 100000
to 100000 quarts of milk are received
daily in the city. and that for the year
the amount is about 225,000,O00 quarts.
The consumer pays on an average of 81
cents a quart, amounting to $4,000, 600.
OF this large sum the farmer who pro-
duces the milk gets about 100000, the
dealers who distribute it take 100000
and the transportation companies about
81, 100000 The investment of the farmer
who produced the milk, in land, equip
ment and live stock, amounts to from
$40, 900, 900 to s250O0,00o. while that Of the
distributor is about s2,50o.00o 1t will
thus be seen that, while the business is
very important one, rewards are very
distributed. The farmer on
his Investment of s25, 0o0. 900 gets but S.
100000, that is to say, one-fifth of his in
vested capital is returned as gross in
come, while the distributor. with an
investment of one-tenth that OF the
farmer, receives nearly three times as
much of the proceeds of the trade as
gross income as his investment
amounts to.

ROOSEVELT AND LINCOLN.

Roosevelt is the first president of the
United States since Abraham Lincoln
who had expressed himself publicly in
favor OF woman suffrage before attain
ing the presidency. Cleveland proved
himself favorable to it by actions rather
than words, as he signed bills giving
women partial suffrage in New York
when he was governor of that state.
Hayes favored 1t In his quiet way, and
helped Mr. Henry b. Blackwell to get q
woman's rights resolution thru the ma
tional republican convention of 1872.

lance. He said: Laugh as we may,

a NEW AID M FINDING WELLS.

3 One OF the recent improvements which
the United States Geological Survey
has introduced In its excellent series of
geological maps Is an arrangement of
lines by which the depth of the rock
layers which are known to produce
are drawn to show the depth below the
surface OF both the upper and lower
faces of the water, bearing rocks in the
section covered by the map and add a
valuable feature to these already useful
publications. The Information on which
the introduction OF the water lines is
based ie being gathered by skillful geol-
ogists who are making a thorough study
OF the underground formations for the
express purpose OF locating waters
which will be available for use by
means Of wells. In certain parts of the
country, as upon the plains and in the
more arid west, these guides to the un-
derground waters will be of the great
est service, not only 10 the farming
population but to the towns and cities
which are in need of a municipal water
supply. Maps of portions of North and
South Dakota, Wyoming and other sec
lions OF the Great Plains area will soon
be published which will contain this new
feature. The advance statement does
not speak OF Iowa The Geologic Folio

city Of Washington and of the section

to condemn in the practice in vogue.
1t took congressional committee to
develop the real facts and to apply the
proper language, and even then several
offending cadets had to be expelled be-
fore the purpose of the authorities was

neither hazing or hsticuffs, and along
with it the statement that the young
