 !. FLASH OF LIGHT.
The Coffee. Facts Came To Her


 ! Coffee is so often unsuspected in the work it does in the human body that illustrations of this kind are interesting. A lady in West Townsend, Mass, says, T did not begin drinking coffee until | was an adult. Not very long after I, commenced I began to have headaches and dull, heavy, stupid feeling. These symptoms grew worse until I was ill but had no suspicion that coffee was the cause of the trouble, T could not get up any strength, and after dragging around half sick for some time I was sent off on a visit to see if the change would do me good. I soon began to feel better and at the end of three weeks felt perfectly we'll again, s.%s. .+t @..,s
 Before leaving I had long talk with my friend as to the cause of my getting better! I had taken no medi- cine of any kinds and the food was about the same as at home, the coffee was particularly rich, strong and palat- able. II complimented her on the coffee and asked what kind she used. She told me 'Posturh,' which I absolutely could not believe. had enjoyed it so

 My friend said she had been using it for two years because when she drank the old-fasllioned coffee it kept her sick half the time. Then it dawned on me like flash of light that the old-fash- toned coffee was the cause of my trouble and sickness and that leaving 1t off and using Postum for three weeks had made me we'll

She saw how round and fat I had grown and said You can have Postunl at home, we have a package in the house that I tried once but it tasted so fiat that I went back to the ordinary .coffee.'' So I said Let me make it; Mrs.---- said it must be made according to directions and must be boiled at least 15 or 20 minutes after the boiling begins, and if we can make it as good as she does you will be as- tonished at it.
 Well, she was astonished and from that time to this we have left the old- fashioned coffee off the table and used Postum altogether Mother is better, my headaches and sick feelings have never returned.

 Hair So Enraged Him That He Bit
 Her and Rescuer.
 A pet bull dog enraged at the sight of a young lady con1bing her hair flew at her and bit her in several places. The young lady's name is Ida Powell, and she lives at IS Mill River street. Last Wednesday afternoon Miss Powell, who has long and beautiful head of hair, was combing it out in front of the glass in her room. Lying on the floor near her was the fanlily's pet bull dog. To comb the hair better Miss Powell took it in her hand and threw it over her head ill front of her so that 1t complete ly covered her face. The sight of her in this position in some way en- ragged the dog and he flew at her and bit her very hadly. He bit her arm and shoulder and tore her dress. MT
 Fox, one of the janitors of the police building, lives upstairs. He was talk Ling in tke yard to some friends wher they heard Miss PowelPs cries. They rushed into the house and saw hei
 struggling with the dog. One of the I men, Isadore Barebault, grabbed hold
 of the dog, and it turned on him and | bit him in the arm. Janitor Fox then
 caught up an axe which was in an ad-
 joining room and split the dogs head open. Miss Powell was in a serious i condition from her wounds and fright and Dr. O'Cpnner was immediately sum. | moned. On his arrival he dressed the
 wounds and did all he could to make | the patient comfortable. Sine is now doing nicely, although the affair was
 such great strain on her nerves that she has not fully recovered from it.

Falls Into Small Dam and is Drowned.
 Medical Examiner Joslin made an investigation Sunday into the circum- stances attending the death of the four-year-old son of a Hamden pro- duce dealer named Passeiso. The child' s body was found in small hole filled with water near the home of its par ents. Saturday afternoon, in company with some others, the child built a deep hole in the bank of a small stream which runs in the rear of the house where the family resides. and filled it full of water. They played around the hole for some time and forgot to allow the water to escape and. as the ground was damp, the water did not run off, leaving it a dangerous spot.
 Late Saturday night, the child by some means got out of the house and wandered out into the yard. His body was found in the hole by his parents early Sunday morning.

At a cost far in excess OF that
ever before paid by southern
newspaper for an article OF any
character, The Constitution has
secured Mr.. Watson work Tor

The Constitution Purpose.
1t NAV be asked why The Con-
,titution goes to the heavy ex-
pense involved in the purchase OF
the serial rights OF all historical
work-for histories do not always
make popular reading.
The reason must be obvious TO
all readers of this newspaper.
The high purpose which has i'm
PEELED Mr.. Watson to write his
history of the United States from
the southern standpoint is the
same that has inspired The Con
stitution from the day of its birth
From that day to this its aim has
been to do everything in its power
10 promote the interests and the
welfare of the south and the south
ern people In every way that is
possible to great newspaper
The Constitution has worked to
The upbuilding OF the south and
especially to the proper presenta-
"ion OF the cause OF the south in
The eyes OF the American people.

would misrepresent these states

ton foremost aims.
Large Circulation Desirable.
The part which the editor OF
this paper had in inspiring Mr..
Watson to the great work he has
undertaken is told by Mr.. Wat

sections; and thus the partisan
statements and misrepresenta-
tons which inhame passions, and
pcrpetuatc sectional prejudice,
will be swept out OF the Libraries
and the school houses OF the land.
AS an illustration OF what |
mean. take the book Of Professor
Henry w. Elson, Side Lights OF
American History The author
Of that work calmly agrees that
the hand of God was seen in the
assassination of Lincoln. Had he
lived '1he mioht have forgiven the
STAKEHOLDER too readily, he might
have restored the seeded states
too easily" Therefore, God in
spired Booth to kill Lincoln in or
Ger that the way might be clear
Tor the infamous reconstruction
laws OF Thad Stevens.
How can southern people ever
become reconciled to histories
which class them as such crlml-
nails, Justly deserving the harsh
est punishment, that God Him
self became virtually the assassin
OF the northern man who was
about to treat us more kindly than
we deserved'
Similar in spirit is that history,
taught recently in SO many coun-
ties in Georgia, which does not
even mention the name of Alex
ander II. Stephens. History writ
ten in this style would soon lose
every illustrious name and decd
q the south
There never can be any lasting
and earnest reconciliation be
tween north and south as long as

If we allow the tecmlng millions
who are pcopling this cOnti''""'

the south has always been the yell
low dog OF the union-that our
people have always been oerelict
in patriotism and recrcant to ma
Gonal duties. there is nothing
more certain than that the time
will come when Southern, as
applied to man or woman, will be
a term Of reproach.
In history, as in everyday lie,
this is the adagc, Give dog a
bad name and hang him"
Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge is
another northern historian who
does great wrong to the south
lie does not abuse lis; he seems
to strive to be fair; but he distorts

everything done in New Eng

lalize Paul Revere, and say moth
