EXHIBITS JOINTED SNAKE.
Tennesseean Proves to Scientists
That Reptile Is No MYTH.

Knoxville, Tenn, Sept 16.-A jointed
snake, the first of its kind ever seen
here was exhibited, having been secured
by Colonel r. p. Gettys, a mill owner
The snake is nearly two feet in length
and was captured alive in North Georgia
Some time since a writer in the Scien-
tihc American declared that the jointed
snake was a myth.
colonel Gettys wrote a reply. in which
he declared that he had seen specimens
when a boy, and had noted that when
struck slight blow the snake became
unjointed and apparently broke into
many pieces. though it would quickly
readjust its parts and crawl off He
has already sold the snake to the
Smithsonian institute

ART OF REST.
May Be Acquired and Used With Great
Benefit.

Complete and restful poise of the body
and mind is an art not easily gained.
Perhaps nothing brings one as much
content, comfort, happiness and pleas
ure as those conditions of easy, restful
resourceful and well balanced mind and
body, that make of work pleasure and
the daily life happy and peaceful.
The nervous housewife busy with a
hundred duties and harrassed by chill
dren the business man. worried with
the press of daily affairs. debts, etc,
cannot enjoy the peace and restful re-
pose and heaIthfuI nervous balance un-
less they know how.
There is way First and foremost
the stomach must be consulted. That
means leaving off coffee absolutely, for
the temporary stimulant and the result
ing depression is a sure ruin to the ner
vous system, and the whole condition of
health and happiness rests upon stom-
ach, nerves and mind.
Start with the stomach. that is the
keystone to the whole arch Stop using
things that break down its power. upset
it's nervous energy and prevent the pro-
per digestion of the food and the con-
sequent manufacture of healthful blood
and nerves, brain and tissues.
When you quit coffee take on Postum
Food Coffee. That is like stopping the
payment of interest and starting on a
career where you are loaning money and
receiving interest. The good results are
double You stop poisoning the system
with coffee and start building up the
broken down nerve cells by powerful
elements contained in Postum. These
are pure food elements ably selected by
experts for the purpose of supplying
just the thing required by Nature to
perform this rebuilding.
These are solid substantial facts ana
can be proven clearly to the satisfaction
of anyone, by personal experience. Try
the change yourself and note how the
old condition of shattered nerves and
worried mind changes to that feeling of
restful poise of a we'll balanced nervous
system.
The managing physician of a hygienic
sanitarium in Indiana says that for five
years in his practice he has always in
sisted upon the patients leaving off cof-
fee and taking Postum Food Coffee with
the most positive, well defined results
and with satisfaction to the most con-
firmed coffee topper.
