COFFEE COMPA EXION.
MANY LADIES HAVE POOR CoMpIExIoNs
FROM COFFEE.

Coffee caused dark-colored blotches on my face

and these blotches gradually appeared until finally
they became permanent and about as dark as
coffee itself.
Il formerly had fine a complexion as one
could ask for.
when / became convinced that coffee was the
cause Of my trouble changed and took to using
Postum Cereal Food Coffee, and, as made IT WELL
according TO directions, I liked 1t very much and
have since that time used 1t entirely in place of
coffee.
Il am thankful to say ! am not nervous any
mere. as was when / drinking coffee. and
my complexion is now fair and good as II was
years ago. 1t is very plain that the coffee caused
the trouble. Please omit my name from public

Most bad compilations are caused by some dis
turbance OF the stomach and coffee is the greatest
disturber OF digestion known. Almost any woman
can have a fair complexion II she will leave of
coffee and use Postum Food Coffee and nutritious
healthy food in proper quantity. The food coffee
furnishes certain parts Of the natural grains from

as wards, or daughters. Each teacher is
expected to look after the personal need

Some of them need instruction even in
habits of personal neatness. They, lack
the ability to think clearly and to reason
quickly which comes as a heritage to
most children in countries where heritage
is an older institution than it is here

ture of that part of the state. State
nit to appropriate certain water from
the river at hat point. the leaders of
the colony will soon take steps to bring
in settlers upon something like 20. 900
acres OF land that will be reclaimed.
The enterprise is backed by leading
Swedish business men of Chicago, and
the intention is to sell the land in for
ty-acre tracts to any one who may wish
to buy. but chiefly to Swedes. The OBJ
iect is to provide "a home for Swedish
immigrants, and an excellent choice of
locality was made when the land in the
vicinity of Fort Laramie was selected.
Movements If this kind should be
given all the encouragement possible.
The colony plan is the best that can
be adopted for the settlement of the
arid region. 1t was adopted in the case
of the Greeley colony. which to this
day is pointed to with pride by the
people of Colorado who know the his
tory Of that community and recognize
the success which has crowned the en-
terprise. Other colonies were subse-
quently established in this state. and
all of them were to a greater or less
degree successful.
Wyoming has a large area of valu-
able land that can be reclaimed by ir-
rigation. and colonies established on it
would be able to construct the neces-
sary irrigation works to make it fer
tile. Probably Wyoming is capable of
placing more land under irrigation
than Colorado, because it has more
rivers that carry large quantities of
available water. In this state many
OF these opportunities have been TAX
en- advantage of, but in Wyoming most
of them still remain open to venture
some and enterprising capitalists and
settlers. The example which is set by
these Swedish %colonists ought to be
followed in e other parts of
the state.-Denver Republican.

MUSHROOMS
That Come from Oregon. Along with
Other Big Things.

Oregon claims to beat the world for
rosy-cheeked girls, big red apples.
roses. big cherries. long timbers and
lots of other things, including edible
mushrooms. Two specimens. the lat
ter of the species ''lautinus monstro-
sus," were found III the cellar of a resi-
dent Of I%rvington. They made their
presence known by raising a pile of
wood and threatening to lift the house
off its foundations. They were Sc
cured by Mr.. William F. Woodward,
who sen lie of them to Professor
Sweetser of Forest Grove. 1t is rather
a formidable-looking fungus, the stem
being two inches in diameter and
about ten inches long, while the cap
is the size of an ordinary soup plate
and about three inches in thickness
at the center. Such vegetables" must
not be grown under restrain of wood
piles or anything else short of an
Egyptian pyramid. but must be given
space according to their strength,
which is something tremendous.

His Prize.

An amusing story. which may per-
haps be entirely true, is told of a
s~hort-sighted but energetic member of
the Russian secret police.
He was walking through a little-fre-
quented street Of St. Petersburg one
night, when he spied, high up on a
lamp-post, a placard.
"Aha!" he said to himself, seeming
mischief on the instant, and alert for
action. That's one of those incen-
diary notices about his majesty the
tsar! 1t must come down at once!"
With some difficulty, being Of a stout
build. he succeeded in climbing the
post and dislodging the placard. He
bore it to the ground, and there. peer
ing at it by the light of the lamp, he
read two Russian words, the English
equivalent for which is the we'll
known legend, Wet Paint"
