Mrs. Lease Talks of Her Experience In

Y0ST SIGNS AGAIN.
Michfgan's Great Coach Takes a
Three Years. Contract.

Ann Arbor, Dec IF. H. Yost, who
brought himself into lasting promi-
nence among western football coaches
by the development of this seasons
wonderful Michigan eleven, learned his
first football at the University of Vir-
glnia. His first real prominence, how
ever, was gained at Lafayette college,
where he played the star tackle on the
first college team that defeated Penn
sylvania when the red and blue eleven
ranked at the head of the football uni
versities of the country. After two
years play at Lafayette, Yost started
university in the fall of 1897. During
that season he developed a team that
held the University of Michigan eleven
to tie score of to 0. In 1898 he went
to Kansas, and there developed team
that won the championship of the
Trans Mississippi league. Then in the
following year he went to Nebraska
university and brought out an eleven
that defeated Kansas and, in turH won
for Nebraska the trans Mississippi
championship. In 1900 Yost went to the
Pacific coast, and was given the charge
of the football team of Stanford uni
versity, and there he won the first foot
ball championship which the Palo Alto
school had had in three years play,
old rival California by the score of
to 0.
His career at Michigan is too we'll

RELIGIOUS FEELINGS.
DR.. Mcfarland Talks About Their
Use and Abuse.

Religious excitement is easily aSSoci-
ated with the thought of Methodist re-
| vivals, and anything that a Methodist
minister may say in this relation is GER
tain to arouse more than ordinary in
| terest. Sunday evening Rev. j. t. Nc
F'arland, pastor of the First Methodist
| church of this city, justified religious
| feeling in his sermon, Religious Emo
tions, their Use and Abuse" Feelings,
said he, should be regulated as well as
intellect Uncontrolled feeling is as bad
as uncontrolled thinking; and there is
a great deal of SO-called thinking that
has but little thought about it. The
emotions must be regulated just as the
intellect. A certain degree of feeling
attends every act of the intellect, and
they range from the lowest to the very
highest emotions of which we are
capable
After an analysis of aesthetic and
moral emotions, he took up the relig-
ious. This" said he, lis as distinct
as the others. Religious feelings grow
out of the relation to God and out of
the relation to the spiritual world. By
vision of the Supreme Being we are
stirred by emotions which express
themselves in worship. They are per-
fectIy natural. There are no more
legitimate feelings in the universe We
don't find men apologizing for getting
excited in the presence of a great pic
ture. but when it comes to the religious
sphere if man has feeling and mani
tests it we think we ought to put it
down to his discredit 1 am sorry for
the man who can't enjoy these re-
ligious emotions.
There is a use for religious emotions
and an abuse of them When feeling is
made an end in itself, it is abused. The
man who lives for the delight of his
eyes debases himself. And when you
Gebase the emotions you have a spe-
cies of sensuality. The mistake is made
with being satisfied with religious emo
ton itself. Feeling must be used as a
motor in religious life, and that must
pass on into volition. Feeling should
pass into action; and if we stop in
midway we defeat it's purpose The diff
f1culty with US is in arresting the pro-
cess.
Il hope none of US will try the fool
ish idea of killing out religious feeling.
On the other hand, we must kill out the
idea that we have religion when we
have feeling, and that alone. That is
the field and the place which emotional
element has in religion"

Is FROM ABYSSINIA.
Aide de Camp to the King Reaches
New York.

New York, Dec. 2.-Lieutenant Ben
ito Sylvan was one of the arrivals on
La Gascogne which has just reached
here. He is aide de camp to the king
of AbySsinia, and is an active officer in
the Abyssinian army The lieutenant
landed at the pier in the full uniform of
the Abyssinian army, carrying his
sword in his hand. He was astonished
when the customs inspector informed
him that he had never heard of the
king of Abyssinia- The lieutenant, who
spoke English fairly well, explained to
the inspector that King Menelik was a
great warrior, and had slaughtered g.
600 Italian soldiers in a single morning,
not many years ago, without losing a
man on his own side.
Lieutenant Sylvan said that he was
on his way to Hayti on an important
mission, and that he might visit other
countries before his return home.

PINEY WOODS.
fiealthfuI But Not Always Curative.

To go to the piney woods is a help,
but if one carries along the bad habits
of food and drink that have caused
sickness, the piney woods will not pro-
duce a recovery.
Coffee drinking caused blindness in a
Virginia gentleman, and his remark
able experience Is worth reading. L
have been a coffee drinker since my
earliest remembrance. If missed coffee
at a meal it brought on headache. This
should have shown me that 1 was a
victim to drug habit Finally, wake
full, restless nights came on After din
ner was always drowsy and after
sleeping would waken stupid and NOR
bid, and felt as though I had been
drugged, and when this feeling wore off
nervousness and restlessness would set
in until 1 drugged myself with coffee
again.
At last my eyesight began to fail.
Some of the best optical specialists
agreed that 1 had an affiiction of the
optic nerve, and after two three
years treatment my eyes slowly lost
their power and 1 became almost sight
less.
I was advised to go to a pine woods
near the sea in a most isolated place.
This 1 did and lived there for two
years without any visible benefit I
gave up all hope of recovery until last
spring friend expressed the belief that
the coffee / drank was the cause of all
of my trouble. He had been a slave
to it and had been unable to find relief
until he quit and took up Postum Food
Coffee.
His experience startled me and de-
cided to try the change although I had
but little faith in its merits. Ny first
cup of Postum proved delicious and was
a great surprise. 1t was evidently we'll
made. 1 had not the slightest trouble
in leaving off coffee for the Postum

During the past six months 1 have
gained in flesh, my sallow complexion

UNGRATEFUL COLOMBIA
Assumes All the Credit For Sur

New York, Dec. 2.-The Herald's Co

follows:
Your correspondent has obtained an
interview with Gen. Carlos Alban, gov
ernor of the department of Panama,
and commander of the military and ma
val forces of the isthmus, regarding the
situation
When Gen. Alban was asked if he
could now maintain free transit on the
Isthmus, he replied:
Colombia does not require foreign
aid to maintain free transit across the
iSthmuS. Within nine days we have re-
captured Colon and have killed or ta-
ken prisoners the troops which occupied
that port
Are you satisfied with the terms of
the treaty executed in Colon?" was
asked.
Yes: the terms are the same as those
arranged in July of last year, when the
evOlutiOniStS surrendered at Panama.
same rebels have again taken up arms
against the Colombian government"
Do you consider the isthmian revo-
luton entirely at an end "
Not yet" replied Gen. Alban en-
Dhaticallv- There are still several
bands of insurgents in the interior of
the department of Panama These
bands will soon be crushed.

WHAT GOES UP
Must Come Down.

Nothing is more certain than that the
use of So-called tOnicS, stimulantS and
medicines, which depend upon alcohol
for their effect, is injurious to health in
the long run.
What goes up must come down and
the elevation of spirits, the temporary
exhilaration resulting from a dose of
medicine containing alcohol, will GER
tainly be followed in a few hours by a
| corresponding depression to relieve
which another dose must be taken.
In other words, many liquid patent
medicines derive their effect entirely
from the alcohol they contain.
Alcohol, and medicines containing it,
are temporary stimulants and not in
any sense true tonic. In fact is is
doubtful if any medicine or drug is a
real tonic.
true tonic is something which will
renew, replenish, build up the exhaust
ed nervous system and wasted tissues
of the body, something that will enrich
the blood and endow it with the proper
proportions of red and white corpuScleS,
which prevent destroy disease germs.
This is what a real tonic should do
and no drug or alcoholic stlmulant Will
do it.
The only true tonic in nature is
wholesome food, thoroughly digeSted.
Every particle of nervous energy, every
minute muscle, fibre and drop of blood
is created daily from the food we di-
geSt.
The mere eating of food has little to
do with the repair of waste tissue but
the perfect digestion of the food eaten
has everything to do with it.
The reason SO few people have perfect
digestion is because from wrong habits
of living the stomach has gradually lost
the power to secrete the gastric juice,
peptones and acids in sufficient guam
tity.
To cure indigestion and stomach
troubles it is necessary to take after
meals some harmless preparation which
will supply the natural peptone and
diastase which every weak stomach
lacks, and probably the best prepara-
ton of this character is Stuart's Dys-
pepSia Tablets, which may be found in
every drug store, and which contain
in pleasant, palatabIe form the whole
some peptoneand diastaSe which nature
requires for prompt digestion.
One or two of these excellent tablets
taken after meals will prevent souring,
fermentation and acidity and insure
complete digestion and assimilation.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are equal
" valuable for little children as for
adults, as they contain nothing harm
full or stimulating but only the natural
digestives.
One of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
digest 500 grains of meat. eggs or
other wholesome food, and they are in
every sense a genuine tonic because
they bring about in the only natural
way a restorative of nerve power,
building up of lost tissue and appetite,
in the only way it can be done, by
the digestion and assimilation Of whole
some food
