These are facts, facts, facts, and they
mean health conferred and continued,
if one will only wake up and take adj
vantage of them. Remember Postum is
a delicious beverage if made strictly
according to directions, and that is
easily done. Don't take any cooks ex-
cuse or statement that she followed
directions. If your Postum comes to
the table weak and unpalatable, you
can depend upon it, the cook has
sighted the job. 1t is the easiest sort
of a proposition to make good Postum.
Ylt only needs attention. Put piece
of butter the size of pea in the pot
to prevent boiling over. All irst-class
grocers sell Postum.

As the Deutschland drew near the Cux-
haven, Prince Henry received the CORE
spondent of The Associated Press in his
cabin. The prince said:
II desire to send last word through
you to America, to say how deeply
grateful | am for the measureless kind
ness | received while there. | tried to
say this before left. but | want to say
again that | am grateful for the cordial
and generous manner in which the Pres
ident and the people Of the United States
received me.
II met and talked with as many indi-
viduals as | could. but. of course | saw
most Of the people in crowds, and some
times only from the railroad or platform.
and only long enough to touch my cap
or take off my hat 70 them. wish &c
thank al those thousands for trouble
they took
The prince spoke with q feeling.
II had no opportunity" he continued
Of studying the details of industry as |
would have liked"
AS to the fatigue Of the trip. the prince
said: II was often tired and had to b.
careful Of what I said both publicly and
privately. ! saw and heard so much that
was sometimes tired out but since my
long sleeps on board the Deutschland
would be ready to return to America at
once for just such another trip. This one
has been so full of pleasure and instruc-
ton. 1t is a good thing to look upoI
your own impressions"
Concerning his speech at Philadelphia,
Prince Henry said:
lit seemed proper | should make some
such utterance. for there are always
some undcrcurrents running that have to
be taken into account What | said in
my Philadelphia speech was precisely the
truth. 1t might have been thought that
during my talks with President Roosevelt
and my ride with him alone. | might have
said word or two of political charac-
ter, but such was not the case. No po-
litical topic was alluded to on either
side
Prince Henry referred to President
Roosevelt's attention. and said he had
not received the Presidents farewell tel
egram as he was by that time at sea,
and that he only saw the text of the mes
sage upon his arrival at Plymouth.
The interest Emperor William takes in
Prince Henry's trip was then mentioned.
In this connection Prince Henry said to
the correspondent:
II shall tell His Tia iestv exactly what
have told YOU. namely, how | appreciate
the kindness shown me by the people of
America. | wish to add a special word
of thanks for the sympathetic way in
which the American papers treated me
In conclusion. the Emperors brother
said: You may be sure the impressions
/ received will be lasting"
Before disembarking from the Deutseh
land, Prince Henry again thanked Capt
Albers for The comfort and kindness he
had experienced on board the vessel and
paid high compliment to the ship ana
the seamanlke qualities shown in run
ming her. The prince presented signed
ubotooranhS of himself nd SearfninS sur
mounted by crowns to Capt. Albers. the
first officer of the Deutschland. and TO

UNITED STATES Is FOURTH
Only Three Countries Now Have g
Greater Population.

Washington, Jan. S.-The census bu-
reau has issued a report announcing the
population of the entire United States,
including all outlying possessions, at
81, 233, O69 in the census year 1900. This
makes the United States and their pos
sessions the fourth country in popula-
ton. This is itemized as follows:
Continental United States. or United
States proper, 75, 994, 575; Philippines, g.,
961 1888, being the estimate of the sta
tistician to the Philippine commission;
Porto Rico. 3.242; Hawaii, 154.001;
Alaska, 90, 592; Guam, 5000; American
Samoa, 610O. Persons in the military
outside of the territory of the United
States proper, 81 .191.
The report announces that the twelfth
census extended only to Alaska and
Hawaii. outside of continental United
States" but that the figures for the
rest of the United States domain are
taken from the best available resources.
These figures are based on the enum-
Grafton of June 1, 1900. The report says:
"A census of the Philippine islands
was in progress in 1896, when the insur
rection broke out and returns for two
fifths of the population We're found
stored in Manila. These were carefully
tabulated and the foregoing estimate
is based upon the result
THE figure for Porto Rico is taken
from the census of 1899, made by the
war department in consultation with
the census office. The figures for Ha-
waii and Alaska and for persons abroad
in the military and naval service are
from the results of the twelfth census.
