Dumb Animals can Scent Danger.

A cat will refuse to drink coffee, but
will drink and thrive on Postum Food
Coffee.
Mrs. Alice Gould of haywood, ILL.,,
says: Coffee drinking made me very
much run down, thin and nervous and
thought 1 should have to give up my
work.
II was induced to try Postum by a
friend who suffered for years from
severe sick headaches lasting for sew
eral days at time, who said that since
using Postum Coffee she had been en-
tiredy free from an attack 1 found that
by making Postum according to firec-
tons it was equal to coffee in flavor.
TT is now six months since began
drinking Postum and I have gained Is
pounds in weight 1t has built me up

many years the garden continued to be
in some sort school of medicine and
botany. Some of the first greenhouses
known In this country were erected
there, and when Evelyn visited 1t in
1885 he already found in what he called
the Apothecaries' Garden of Simples "a
collection of innumerable rarities."
The garden lies close to the river and
the fiat tops of the two great cedar
trees planted in 1858 have often caused
the passenger by steamboat to wonder
what place it was that he was gazing
at. Sir Hans Sloane himself was rath-
er surprised that they throve as we'll
as they did, and thought great praise
was due to Mr.. Watts, the gardener. -
The trees during their infancy and
youth, however, had the benefit of pure
country air, for the garden then stood
entirely free from London smoke and
dirt, the effects of which are only too
visible in its present appearance. An
ancient cork tree is likewise to be seen
in the grounds, but we know of no ira
ditions connected with h-London

Italians Who Do Not speak rtaliau

"A very odd circumstance in q country

Italian. In new countries-like, for in
stance, Canada and the United States
this would cause no surprise, but in
Italy 1t Is considered SO strange that the
statement has been contradicted.
The idioms which they use may be
divided roughly into six-French, Ger

Catalonian. The French dialect Ia
spoken in ninety-seven communes, by
more than 80 900 people, in and near the
