Mother R Rather Got he Start of Them.

Mother Rather Got he Start of Them.
 Sometimes the mother plays a turn on the young people and greatly to their benefit. A young lady in Mem phis, Tenn, Miss B. Dye, of 222 Carroll avenue, comments in an interesting way about the harmless little deception her mother played upon one of the family during the summer.
 She says, Every member of our family could write testimonial about Postum Food Coffee and what it has cone for us. Father has really been made over since quitting coffee and using Postum, but I must tell you about brother
 When he came home from college last summer he was thin and looked dread fully. We questioned him about his food and drink. He said he drank coffee, Of course l can't get along without a good cup of coffee three times a day Mother did not say anything to him, but made Postum for him just the same, and at the next meal he compli- mented her on the coffee. Several times he said, Now if I just had such coffee as this at school I could make better averages in my studies
 So during the whole summer he drank Postum, thinking it was strong coffee, and we could all see, from day to day, how much he was improving in health His complexion gradually cleared up and he gained in every way When he went back in the fall Mother told him the secret she had kept for over three months, and put several packages of Postum in his trunk.
 You may depend upon it, the lesson was one he will never forget. My younger brother quit coffee about a year ago and has been using Postum Food Coffee, and he has been built up from d regular invalid until he is now a fat, rosy-cleeked boy, full of life and fun. Just the other day he remarked he was getting along so much better in lis studies than ever before and he what caused the change. Mother remarked, It is Postum. ''

 scum.
 The lovers of bicycle races in New Haven are looking forward to the com ing season with great hopes, and it is expected that when the season closes it will prove by far the most successful in the history of the sport in New Haven The news that Frederick w. Voigt and Solomon De Vries, of Newark, had pur- chased the Coliseum outright and that they were going to manage the track assures the best sport possible, and for that reason the bicycle era ks can h rd- ly wait for the first pistol shot of the season.
 MT. Voigt said recently in an inter- view: we are going to give the New Haven public the same high-class rac- ing that Vailsburg patrons have always enjoyed. The track is a good one, and no mistake, and l am going to provide special events never before seen on a small course. I believe all kinds of new competition records can be made with properly framed events. Record break ing is always interesting, but first class riders must be opposed to induce new figures. We will have them without a doubt. As I understand it, Mcfarland rode from scratch in a one-mile handi- cap last summer in i minute 55 seconds That is a wonderful performance, and proves the track is built for record breaking purposes, if you can provide the riding material"
 A. C. Batchelder of the N. c. A. board of control has promised the territorial rights for New Haven to Voigt & De Vries, and that valuable grant will be theirs as soon as the annual meeting of that body takes place, February 4, in New York. At that time the track will also be elected to full membership ill the N c. A., privilege which it has not enjoyed up to this time,

But flattery when accepted at it's face value is bad for the recipient. It gives wrong ideas and upsets the mental system. Imita tions of original articles of food or medicine are just as value less and injurious to the physical sys- tenn. They are put on the market by interruptions people at lower price than the genuine goods and find a sale because of the known value Of the orig inal. People who buy the imitation and who have never used the genuine, find it valueless, and conclude the genuine is the same and do not try it, but those who have once used the original quick ly find their mistake and return to it.
 Johann HofT's Extract is a perfect il- lustration of this. Known in all civil ized countries for half a century as the great nutritive tonic, used by leading people of the world, prescribed by phy- sicians, its imitators are legion. Flat terirg! Yes, but injurious also. The genuine Johann Hoff's Extract is the only one that has the effect claimed for 1t as proven by thousands of testimo- nials from prominent people.

ST. JOSEPH'S Y. M. SOCIETY

Gave Successful Theatrical Perform
 ance at Germania Hall Last Night,
 The members of St. Joseph's Young Mems society. gave a highly successful theatrical performance at Germania. hall last night before very large and appreciative audience. The piece chos- en for presentation was Poverty Flats play of western life in three acts by Bernard Francis Moore. The various characters in the play were ad- mirably rendered by members of the society many of whom gave such a vivid portrayal of the parts allotted t. them as to call forth the hearty p1aud- its of the audience. The acting of Max Hamm, who took the part of Martin Kimball, was excellent, as was also that of John Rosinus as Dick Randall Win Lung, sad-eyed heather who knew thing or two, was admirably represent ed by Theodore Flagge. Miss Helen Hamm as Marion Kimball, the sheriff's daughter made splendid appearance and acted her part to perfection, Biddy Houlahan, the queen of the camp was cleverly sustained by Miss F. Servaty.
