A PRIVILEGE

It is curious to observe how hard it is
for some people to give UP coffee drink
ing after they have become. at least half
satisfied that it is the cause of their i'll
health, put it becomes an easy task to
give it up when one takes Postum Food
Coffee in it's place, providing, of course,
that Postum is made according to direc-
tions, for then it has the rich, beautiful
color and d satisfying taste, while the
rapid Improvement in health clinches the
argument.
A young lady at Cambrldgeport, Mass,
says: when 1t was shown to me plain
ly that my i'll health and excessive nerv-
BUSINESS was largely due to the coffee
habit, I realized that 1 must give it up,
but it was next to impossible to do so.
However, made the trial and took Pos
tum Food Coffee, with the mental reser-
walton of the privilege, as termed it,
of drinking coffee once week.
Little did l dream what a true friend
Postum was destined to become to me.
The old stomach trouble left, the nerv-
BUSINESS vanished and good, natural,
healthy sleep camo to my relief. In less

The Rev Father Wilibald, 0. S. B., for
twenty-tl.ee years pastor of St. Mary's
German Catholic Church. of this city,
VIII be removed to another field of work,
despite the efforts of his congregation to
retain him.
The result of the conference between
Bishop Had and the committee appointed
from St. Mary's was unfavorable to the
wishe., Of the congregation. Messrs.
John Amrhe:n, JOSEPH w. Bliley.
Herman Evers and Henry HolzGrefe,
composing the committee, left Mon
day night for North Carolina,
arriving at Maryhelp Abbey the next
day. They waited on Bishop !Iaid at
o'clock that afternoon, and held d con-
ference. continuing through several hours
1t is understood that the Bishop stated
that he had finally decided to remove
Father Wilibald, thinking that the lat
ter needed a rest. He declined to recon-
slider his action, and said that Father
Wilibnld would probably be sent on a
vacation Of several months to Europe.
Though he would say nothing to that eff
feet, il appears from his conversation that
he held out some slight hope that St
Mary's pastor might be- returned 1T the
expiration of the vacation.
Bishop Haid has not yet named the
successor to Father Wllibald. He said.
however. that he would send T. good man
here. Father Edwards, of Newton $
Grove is mentioned for the position.

POLITICS ANO POLITICIANS.
The Remainder of the Work VIII Is
ouic1-Pot Will Boil Soon.


Very little of interest was going on IN
the polit. cal word here yesterday, ana
everybody was disposed TO let the week
pass without much agitation as there Is
soon to be such hot time in the Old
town.
Political matters will most likely re-
main pretty quiet here during the rest OF
the week, for the reason that the lead
ers who have business in Richmond in the
near future viii probably postpone it
until next week, so as to be here when
the General Assembly meets in extra ses-
sion.
The political pot will fairly simmer here
next week, however. Many members and
others interested in the work of the ses-
sion will arrive here Monday, and by
Tuesday night the city is expected to be
fairly in the hands OF Democratic leaders.
Murpfy's' Hotel lobby will be the Mecca
that will attract the politicians during
their stay here. and many caucuses md
consultations will be held at the famous
hostelry. on the public questions to be dis
posed of by the Legislature.
a very interesting question that is now
being quietly discussed is whether or
not the Democrats should make nomina-
tons for delegates to the Constitutional
Convention Sentiment seems TO be faV-
orable to nominations by a primary cleo
ton.

Committee will consider this matter,
