BULL MOOSE WAS sOCIABLE
Name Monster, Driven by Forest
Fires, Stormed Quiet Village.

Sangerville, Ne, May 25.-The big bull
moose which has been prowling around
this neighboFhoode made a call in this
village last night. and by the size of his
tracks he must have weighed half a ton.
Fences were knocked down. lawns torn
up and hencoops were waded through in
a way which looked as if a cyclone had
struck town. Bunches of moose hair
were found which he left behind which
now are held as souvenirs by nimrods
for future use
The moose made his first appearance
on Thursday afternoon in the field Of G.
W. Morgan, near the main Travelled road
from Guilford to Foxcroft. where he was
seen by persons driving by, their ap-
pearance giving him no concern. It is
the closed season and he seemed to know
it, for he stared them out of counte-
nance Some think the forest fires in
the upper part of the country drove him
this way One thing is certain, Sanger
Vile viii need no curfew for the next
few weeks and the May basket season

MEAL TIME CONSCIENCE.
What Do the Children Drink?

There are times when mother or
father feeds the youngsters something
that they know children should not
have. Perhaps it is some rich dessert
but more often it is tea or coffee Some
compromise by putting in so much hot
water that there is not much tea or
coffee left, but even that little is pretty
certain to do harm. It leads to bigger
doses. Then come the coffee ills
It is better to have some delicious. hot
food drink that you can take yourself
and feed to your children conscious that
it will help and strengthen and never
hurt them. A lady of Oneida. n. Y.
says: Il used coffee many years in
spite of the conviction that it injured
my nervous system and produced my
nervous headaches. While visiting 4

it was not wei made; still 1 determined
to get a package and try it myself. and
after following directions carefully the
result was all that could be desired
delicious. finely favored, richly colored
beverage Since I quit coffee Postum
has worked wonders for me.
My husband who always suffered
coffee, quit the coffee and took up Pos
tum with me and since drinking Pos
tum he has felt stronger and better
with no Indication of kidney trouble.
You may be sure I find it a great
comfort to have a warm drink at meals
