DAVID AND GOLIATH.
A Little Shot Put Old King Coffee Out
of Business.

When medicine fails, they sometimes
send sick people away to another
climate for their health. Sometimes the
climate does it. but more often they
stumble on the proper food to take, and
then get well.
A lady in San Diego tells Of a friend
who left her home each December, for
the past two winters, to go to California
for her health. She says: Almost all
of her time was spent in visiting the
doctor and sitting in a big chair and
watching the clock to note the time for
her next dose of medicine. Nervousness
was her principal trouble, and with 9TH
ers of kindred nature, made life for
her burden.
On the occasion of her last visit,
begged her to give up the use of coffee.
and use Postum Coffee. She replied
that she could not stop coffee. said no
more at the time, but the next morning
at breakfast, / passed her fragrant,
Steaming cup of Postum, making 1t as
it should be made. After that, I had no
more trouble, and my friend drank no
more coffee. But the most surprising
part of the experience was the change
that soon came over her.
We began to notice it within less than
a week. In less than a month, her ner-
vousness had left her, and in three
months, she was new woman in face,
figure and health. I had not dared to
hope for so much benefit, although had
been greatly benefited myself by Pos
tum. but coffee to her system was SIM
ply poisonous. and I believe this is the
case with many others. She returned
to her home in December, and was mar
ried within less than two months after
She never fails to give credit to Postum
for her health or thanks tome for teach
ing her to make it properly, and well
she may. for Postum has done for ~
what travel. doctors and medicine fail
ed to do" Name given by Postum CO.,

and the demand last winter exceeded
the supply. The senators and represen-
tatives had their mails burdened with
requests for garden seeds and they inn
portuned the secretary of agriculture
for these small packages as much as
they have the president for patronage
The senators and representatives from
the south have been more urgent than
those from other sections, possibly be-
cause the garden is a new institution
in that section. The people there are
just learning to appreciate the nature OF
vegeta BILE gardens.
Despite that double the usual amount
of seeds is to be sent out this fall and
winter, the preliminary work is ad-
vanced much farther than in past years
This year machines have been installed
for packing the seeds, thus the work
will be wonderfully expedited over for
mer years Each of these machines does
the work of filing and sealing 20 envel-
opes minute. or has. in other words,
the capacity of eight girls, which it
formerly took to Go this amount of
work. day and night shift will be
employed until the distribution is COM
pleted.
/ The aggregate number of packages of
seeds and plants to be distributed in
the state of Missouri this fall and win
ter will be in the nefghborhood of 240.-
600, or an allowance of about $4,000
packages to each of the two senators
and Is representa- tives.
So great was the demand for seeds
from Missouri last year that many
members of the Missouri delegation
were compelled to obtain many thou
sand packages over their regular quota.
This additional seed was secured either
through purchase out of their own
money or through the courtesy Of trad
er sections of the country who have city
constituencies.

ROOsEVELT'S RULING.
President Announces His Conclusion In
Schley Case.

Washington, Feb. 2O.-The Pres
ident has given mis- decision in the
matter of the Schley appeal, which
is, to say the least, diplomatic. He
seems to have been trying to molly
both sides and steer between the
two, and has most probably ended
by offending both.
All matters before the battle of
Santiago are considered as out OF
the sphere of inquiry, ss, if Schley
was guilty Of misconduct, his Of
fences had been condoned by the
silence of his superiors. In the bat
tie itself the President thinks that
there was no actual commanders in
chief; that it was captains battle.
He thinks Schley's loop was the
only blunder of the battle; but that
afterwards Schley did all he could
have done. He says that Sampson
was technically commander in-chief,
and as such was entitled to his pro-
motion ahead of Schley.

MADE.

New York, Feb. 2O.-Dennis La
hey, Laurel Hill florist, who was

weight. He contracted pneumonia

gether on the inside to prevent the
bottom from falling out. The COM
