AN EvEMTFUL DAY
when Coffee Left the Household.

sI never began to use coffee until
after. I began teaching school, then
good motherly old dame served such
nice coffee that she got me into the
way of drinking it.
Inside of a year 1 became a wreck
from insomnia and nervous prostrat1on
Every afternoon I was drowsy and fill
ed with apprehension that would have
crying spells without knowing why.
/ laid around the house an misery,
and wasa misery to every one, else once
in a while a friend would tell me that
coffee was the cause of my trouble l
reasoned with them thattI only had one
cup at breakfast and that was not en-
ough to cause the trouble, but 1 found
that that was the secret-that one cup
of coffee.
1t was an eventfui day in our house
hold when 1 quit coffee and started
making Postum. l followed the direc-
tions and the result was wonderful; no
other words express it. The Postum
Coffee was of a rich, beautiful color, and
when cream was added looked as de-
licious as it tasted.
A doctor who was in the house tasted
the Postum and said that it was equal
to the best Mocha or Java, then quickly
turned away as though 1t was incom-
prehensible. He suspected there was
the absolute purity of the Postum and
have confidence in it.
Nothing ever tasted better to me than
that first, well-made cup of Postum,
and never since have 1 tasted coffee.
and I now look back with horror upon
the sickness it caused. We began, very
quickly, to see the difference between
my condition under Postum and under
common coffee. l lost that feeling of
despair and restlessness which op-
pressed me every afternoon and 1 began
to sleep Ikea baby. Postum must be
given the credit for all my improve
ment.
A word about tea also. One time
When was visiting I had package of
Postum with me. 1t gave out and be-
fore I could get another had tea for
breakfast Within a few days the old
wretched feeling that coffee used to
give me came back, and all through the
long afternoon 1 felt that must weep
though really over nothing at all.
Insomnia came back, but / quickly
quit the tea and got all right again"
Name given by Postum Co, Battle
Creek. Mich.
Postum is an absolutely pure product
of the cereals as analyzed by some of
the best chemists in America and pass
ed upon by the various pure food COM
missioners of the different states.

EASTMAN CHOSEN
Well Known Physician in
Charge of Christ Hospital.
Resignation of Mrs. McKibben is
Finally Accepted.
MAY END TROUBLE.
Miss Smith, Who Caused Eric
tiOn, Also Steps Out.
An Assistant Will Probably BE
~ Selected Later.

DIR. B. d. Eastman has been appoint
ed temporary superintendent of Christ
hospital to succeed Matron Mrs. Mary
w. McKibben, whose resignation was
accepted by the board of directors of
that institution at a meeting held
Thursday evening
DR.. Eastman assumes charge of the
institution today and he is empowered
to choose such subordinate officers and
employees as may be found necessary
DIR. Eastman will in all probability be
placed in charge of the hospital per-
manently. Since the friction caused by
the installation of a stranger as super
intendent of nurses, it was found that
an entirely new start was necessary to
get the affairs of the institution run
ming smoothly again and it was decided
to place the work under an entirely new
management. 1t is not uncommon for
a hospital to be under the direction of
male superintendent, and in fact it is
stated that it is quite the rule in some
cities. The members of the board OF
directors feel certain that Dr. Eastman
who is known as one of the most care
full. conscientious and painstaking doc
tors Of the city, is unquestionably wei
fitted to assume control of the institu-
ton. and it is believed he will soon be
elected as permanent superintendent of

tendent. The resignation was present.
ed to the board of directors by Bishop
AIillSpaugh, who was instrumental in
securing Miss Smiths appointment. The
resignation was also accepted.
The nurses who sided with Mrs. Ne
Kibben are undecided whether to leave
the hospital or not. This morning q. few
expressed themselves as intending to
leave but the majority have decided to
stay with the hospital.
The controversy was begun by the ap-
pointment of Miss Smith to be superin-
tendent of nurses. The duties of the
new position were not clearly defined
when the position was created, and Mrs
AIckibben, who has for a number of
years been the matron at the hospital,
feeling that her jurisdiction was being
encrOached upon, rendered her resigna-
ton Nurses and employees of the hos
pital who were in sympathy with Mrs.
Nckibben threatened to strike if the
resignation was accepted. The affair
was anicably settled, and Mrs Mckib-
ben remained in charge.

with the effort of the Olneyville strikers
to abolish the two-loom system and
partly on account of the grievances

Anchor mills in this place and the

London. May 24-The Spectator to-
day in a lengthy article on How the
German Emperor Might Win the Unit
ed States begins by paying a tribute
to Emperor Williams capabilities as
statesman, but declares he has nevSr
arrived at a clear understanding of the
American people.
Probably in his heart of hearts,
says the Spectator, "he believes that
the future Of the world belongs in equal
parts to the United States and German
world powers. Yet. while he has striven
to carry out a community of interest,
he completely misjudges the American
people. The visit of Prince Henry and
the statue OF Frederic the Great are
merely taken in America as signs Of
ordinary courtesy. The American re-
publicans would be pleased to see the
statues Of all the kings Of Europe
ranged around the capitol. respectfully
listening TO the strains Of Hail Column
bia." But il viii never occur to them
that the emperor laid them under any
sort os obligation.
IF the emperor would only first learn
to understand the American people, and
then would make the sacrifices re-
CURED. he would be able to win their
confidence and respect. What will win
that is the carrying out and doing
homage TO certain ideals. of which the
Americans believe themselves TO be the
special guardians. These are the ideals
Of civil and religious liberty, equality
of all before the law and the abolition
of special and personal privileges. We
do no. doubt the American people
would then bes carried away by a flood
Of enthusiasm for the emperor. He
would seem TO them to be the exponent
OF true. honest. American ideals"
The Spectator draws an analogy be-
tween Emperor William and the late
Queen Victoria. who gained the con-
idence Of America without. conscious
or deliberate effort. but by respect for
human rights and concludes by ex-
pressing the opinion that when En-
peror William asks the United States
to forego any points Of its policy, like

Washington. May Ex-senator Kearns
had a conference today with the presi-
dent upon the latter's invitation on the
Uintah reservation question and the
Indian appropriation bill. The presl-
dent reiterated his objections to the
bill on account Of the features making
the payment of funds TO the Indians
contingent upon their agreement to
open reservations. the small all0tments
to the Indians and the mining COnces-
sions 20 the Raven and Florence min
ing companies. The resolution which
passed the senate yesterday and which
is now pending in the house viii, if Il
passes the house. remove all Of the
presidents objections 10 the bill eX
cepting the feature Of the concessions
to the mining companies. He thinks
these concessions too liberal and that
the companies have not invested
enough or performed sufficient work
on the reservation to entitle them 10
the leases specified in the bill.
While the pending resolution does not
provide for a modification of the leas-
ing privileges to these companies and
in that respect does not meet the views
of the president, it may be expected
with certainty that he win sign the
bill If the resolution as framed is
adopted.
Senator Kearns is in accord with the
president upon the propositions to give
the Indians more lands than is pro-
vided in the bill as passed and from
the inception Of the proposed legisla-
ton has taken this view. He says there
is ample land in the reservation for a
settlement after giving the Indians adj
ditional lands for pasturage purposes.
Senator Kearus assured the president
that much rich mineral area remains
in the reservation for prospecting and
exploitation after the concessions TO
the mining companies named in the
bill are granted and that the people Of
Utah win heartily approve the open
ing Of the reservation even If these
companies are treated rather literally.
