Didn't Believe it Possible that Coffee was
at Work.
People often attribute their i'll health
to some indiscretion in eating, and change
diet in the hope of recovering their won't
cd good health; finding no change for the
better in their condition, they are at a
loss for the cause, never for a moment
thinking that the cup of coffee which they
take in the morning is the true source
from whence all their ills have come.
A lady in Philadelphia had her atten-
ton called to the pernicious' working OF
coffee on the system. by reading little
book on How to Live" She says
1T was truly an eye-opener to me. All
the many symptoms of the nervous stage
under which l had been laboring so Ions,
were here directly traceable to coffee
drinking. Especially was it shown to be
responsible for the complete break
down of my nervous system, which l
had ascribed to many different causes,
and which had become so great that my
hands shook like that of a topper when
ever carried things to my mouth or
reached out to grasp anything / found
myself subject to frequent spells of de-
ness. with constant sour erucations.
Now. like every slave to an inordinate
appetite, / was loath to believe that my
favorite morning and midday beverage
was the true cause of all this nervous
wrctchedness.
Having noticed the advertisements OF
Postum Food Coffee | determined tc
test it, and purchased package and had
some prepared carefully as directed /
enjoyed my first cup immensely. and
Postum has been my favorite drink ever
since. ard that is a year and a half ago
| had barely used it 2 week when | real
lied a general tone-up' of my system
First. my appetite improved; next, | had
no feeling of depression for days to-
gether. and a sensation OF comfort es-

After a month. l was aware that my
hands no longer trembled, my nerves
were improved, and this improvement;

health

THE BABY'S CHANGES.

The Indianapolis Sentinel has been doing some figuring in averages on the baby boys chances in life. It says that the chances are 30,00O GOO to l that he will not become president of the Unit ed States. or vice president. or chief justice of the supreme court. ct it holds true that any baby boy may reach either of these places-that is to say. there is a possibility. until the phenomena of his development surely count him out. The chances are 410 900 to that he will not be a United States senator, 103. 330 to l that he will not be a member of the house of representa- tives. and S20,000 to l that he will never be governor of state. All these fig ures are subject, of course, to certain special circumstance, possible or other wise. One may presume that an Ohio boys chance of becoming President is much better than the chance of a Della ware or Rhode Island boy. if he stays al home. The chances are 5SS to l that he will not go insane, 1.250 to l that he will not be blind, S64 to ! that he will not be an inmate of public aims house. 400 to l that he will not be an enlisted soldier or sailor, 1900 to l that he will never be a city policeman, and 9,11T to l that he vii never be presi- dent of a national bank.-Boston Her aid.

 It is the real soulful woman's com plaint that she sometimes feels like a musical instrument that has been touched by a rude hand.
 It is a wonder that in their reckless hurry at the last moment at Christi mas, some woman hasn't started the fire under her yule log with kerosene.

THE LESSON OF DIS DE BAR.

The fact that these creatures were able with comparative impunity to run their shamelesSly sinful and shameless ly criminal careers in the United States, and that later when the scene of their operations was transferred to London they were swiftly and with due pro- cess of law tried convicted and sen- fenced, suggests a comparison between American and British administration of justice that is not altogether favor able to the courts of this country. Whatever may be the shortcomings of the American system, there can be lit tie doubt that justice, even-handed. swift and sure. is administered more nearly perfectly in Great Britain-and when We use the words Great Britain we have in mind their geological not their political significance-than in any other country on the planet. We are not quite sure that the profession and practice of law have not in England been reduced more nearly to an exact science than they have been in any other nation. Certain it is that there is little if any absurd sentimentality in British courts. juries or judges. The English as race are unmoved by certain maudlin sympathy which not infrequently sweeps other peoples off their feet and out of their heads.-New Orleans Times Democrat.

laake stated that on one occasion man whom he did not know had his arm torn off by shell in one of the battles before Petersburg The stran- ger inquired with some detail as to the time and place of the casualty and then, turning to his companion, calm ly remarked, II am that man." He then described the circumstances so minutely and accurately that his lis tener was convinced that he was in deed the man. Thus, after more than thirty-five years, these two men who had stood so near together in the fam ing front of the battle are brought to- gether again, one bearing an empty sleeve a silent testimony of his ser vices in a cause which. though lost, is still glorious.-Richmond Dispatch.

RECIPROCITY AND CUBA.

Denied an adequate market in this country and Cuba can never reach sta ble and prosperous conditions. It is impossible to pass upon the trade and tariff relations between Cuba and the United States without remembering that this country, by its interference to restore order in Cuba. has assumed responsibility for the maintenance and the permanence of peace and pros perity in Cuba. Neither can exist in the island without the advantage which comes from favorable access to our markets by Cuban products.
 Reciprocity stands today as simply the means, and the most important and most economical means, for continuing and establishing in Cuba the peace and order for which the Spanish war was fought. Free access to American markets is not needed A complete re- mission of duties is not demanded. A substantial reduction is all that is proposed. Its extent is a matter of de- tail and demands discussion and in stigation.-Philadelp Press.

HOSTEHER'S STOMACH BITTERS
UNIVERSITY BENEFICENCE.

The rare and almost imperious pas sion for the endowment of vast. per manent and potential seats of learning and culture in the United States is nothing new nor strange in land of free institutions. What more natural than that a high-souled citizen, risen to aff1uence from the common level should regard as supreme benefac- tion the privilege of higher education which he himself had not enjoyed? .? Increased knowledge means increased capacity for right thinking and right living, together with a larger measure of happiness when fortune favors and of serene philosophy when the tickle goddess frowns. To confer this inesti- mable boon of mental and spiritual boise and equipment is to offer to hu- manity a paramount and supreme benefaction. Small wonder, indeed, that so many modern Midases, who have themselves, perchance. known in earlier years the black depths and grinding bangs of poverty, should seek to throw a golden light athwart the pathway of future seekers after knowl- edge.-Philadelphi Record.

LoNDoN's COSTLY FEAsTs.

Exactly a quarter of century ago the city fathers were welcoming anoth- CT Prince of Wales from India. and it has been estimated that the f27. 900 spent on the reception was twice the weight of King Edward in those days. Years before the city had spent nearly as much in celebration of the Princes wedding, f10,000 being the price of q necklace of which Queen Alexandra may well be proud even now that she has a crown. Far back in the COS the Sultan came from Turkey, and the city spent f24.OOO to moke him happy for a cingle day. Sixteen thousand satisfied the Shah. and the Czar of all the Rus sias was entertained the following year for only f13,00O.
 What the city will spend next year the city only knows. The coronation of Queen Victoria we may be sure, is no precedent. for in 1887, when the queen attended the Lord Mayors ban quet. the entertaining bill was hardly more than fs.0 900. and fourteen years later, when the queen again visited the city, the cost Of the visit to the corpo- ration was less than f6,00O. Queen Victorias $ visits to the city. indeed. were the least costly Of all the royal visits to the Lord Mayors kingdom. Thanksgiving day for the recovery of the Prince of Wales cost the city f13- GOO, and the 1887 Jubilee celebrations accounted for. an expenditure of near ly f12 900. Altogether the nine royal celebrations mentioned cost the city over f130. .0OO-an average. to be exact, of f14.S6S for each royal guest.
 Whether the city has made up it's mind to be more economical or not one does not know, but in our own time the city has entertained the German Elm peror. the Shah of Persia and the King of Denmark for an aggregate sum of less than IS. S.0O0-less than a third of the sum spent on welcoming the Sultan in 1867. It would seem almost as if the corporation were returning to the sim pie ways of their fathers who enter tained George II. at a cost of f31 13s.

In 'Herpicide" The New Scientific and
 Successful Dandruff Treatment
 Have you dandruff? Then you have a conta gious parasite disease, unpleas- ant, unhealthy and one that will event. ually lead to badness. To cure it you must destroy the parasite that eats at the root of the hair. The only prepara- tion for destroying these germs is New bros Herpicide. Charles Klein of Lar annie, Wyo., says: 'Herpicide allayed the itching, cured the dandruff and stopped my hairs failing out: and 1t is bringing a new crop of hair" Herpi- eide is free from grease or dangerous drugs, and makes hair glossy and soft as silk.

THE NEW SCHOOL HOUSES
Plans Adopted and the Board Has Ad
 vertised For Bids.

The plans for the new school build ings to be erected at Five Points and in Churchilrs addition, have been pre- pared by Architect w. F. Norton, and approved by the school board. They are now on exhibition to all interested parties at the office or the DeMund Lumber company. and the board has advertised for bids for the construc- tion of the buildings m accordance with these plans, to be opened Feb ruary 1st.
 The two buildings will be practically alike. and of the same size. They will be one story and a basement. and each will contain four school rooms. In the basement there will be lavatories, q room in which pupils may store their bicycles. and also store-rooms for wood, coal or other fuel. The plans call for the best plumbing, electric wiring and all convenieces of the modern properly appointed school house.
 The buildings are designed to be built of brick. though it is not defi- nitely decided whether or not some other material of a fire-proof nature may be used. There is at least one firm in the city desirous of furnishing an artificial building stone to be used as veneering for light brick work, and is said to be even more durable and stronger than brick.
 No time limit is named yet by the board as to when the houses shall be finished, but will be, of course, before the contracts are let. However, as it is not intended to use the buildings before next September, there is ample time for construction and furnishing

SECOND PERFORMANCE
McIyor -Tyndall in an Evening of Mys-
 tery at the Doris.

Another large and enthusiastic audi ander J. McIvor-Tyndau in his mar vicious demonstrations of mirth. mar vel and mystery. Under a committee composed of Messrs. s. Oberfelder F. l.. Blumer, A. J. Bradley, J. Foster, Rhodes. Gordon Tweed and Doctors Gunter, Linn and Holbrook the fla nous thought reader gave a splendid demonstration of telepathy and thought transference. feats too num- erous for detailed account Each test was both mystifying and amusing, and elicited prolonged applause. Perhaps one of the most interesting exhibitions Of his strange powers was the one in which the doctor demonstrated how thought can be transmitted from one mind through another and still be reg istered on the sensitive brain of the thought-reader.
 Dr. Gunter, one of the committee, was blindfolded. thus knowing nothing Of the thought being decided on, while the audience had previously been re- quested, when the subject was out of hearing, to concentrate their minds on some one present. McIvor-Tyndall was led in blindfolded and MT. Blumer took the hand of Dr. Gunther, the lat ter's other hand being held by the thought-reader. Then McIvor-Tyndall unhesitatingly described the subject thought of and pointed him out. thus manifesting the wonderful gift of read ing thoughts through the unconscious mind.
 The sealed package, offered as gift, proved to be a beautifully bound copy of McIvor-Tyndall's work on palmistry. and was given to Mrs. Webster Street, who had been chosen by the committee. Another test ex- tremely interesting was in the nature of psychometry, differing materially from thought-reading. The commit tee and members of the audience wrote down the names of some living and departed friends. Then one or the committee, after collecting the slips, passed them over the forehead of Me Ivor-Tyndall, the latter being blind folded, and the thought-reading read fly specified which of the names were those of dead and which were the liv- ing. This closed another of the very convincing tests of the doctors ability.
