A COMPARISON
In Money and Food Value.

Coffee had been used in our family
for years, and we all drank il except
hLErand. who gave il up some years ago
because 81 injured his health. - writes =
lady from Granville. Ohio.
Last year We spent the summer n
the northern woods. Among our table
supplies, unknown TO my husband, I had
taken along several packages OF Postum
Food Coffee but fl was stored away and
forgotten for weeks, during which time
we used coffee.
-'Oue day my husband said I wish it
were possible 20 get some Postum. I
would like to Try it Two hours later, 1t
dinner. served him a cup. brewed ac-
cording TO the directions on package.
His surprise was complete: the taste
pleased him and he drank a second cup.
From that hour we continued 10 use
Postum with gratifying satisfaction. and
not another cup of coffee has ever come
10 our table.
My husband found that it did not pro-
duce the distress that forced him TO re-
nou0ce coffee and that il sJrengt henad
his nerves AMI stopped all his stomach
trouble Its effect on Me was 10 less
gratifying: though I had drunk coffee
but sparinKIy, had suffered consider
ably from it, II disoTdered my nerves
and disturbed my liver Postum correct-
ed these evils and proved q sedstive and
most wholesome food
we were both interested IN the COM
parative cost Of coffee and Postum. We
had always paid IS cents a pound for COT
fee. A large package Of Postum costs
% cents and weighs one pound and a
quarter. Though We drank Postum moro
freely and frequently than wa had coffee
we found that the large size package
OF Postum lasted as long as TWO pounds
Of coffee, a difference Of IS cents in 5avor
OF Postum. N a year this saving OF
money was cousiderab BILE and this fact
recommends Postum TO all people who
believe ia economy.
Even q person prejudiced in favor %
coffee would admit that Postum properly
tTrwed IS as pleasant 90 the palate rs
he best coffee know that some people
have been dissatisfied with Postum be-
cause they did not make il properly.
Another advantage OF Postum tba-
makes it vastly superior TO coffee Tor

SENATORS PONDER ON
OPEN PHILIPPINE DOOR
Consider Protest of England and Germany Re-
SpeCting Hemp.

Maintenance OF an open door in the
Philippines because Of the demands Of
England and Germany, and without i'm
pairing the revenues of the islands by re-
moving the export duty on hemp. is en-
gaging the Republican members OF the
Senate Philippines Committee. The re
cent notes from the English and Ger
man governments protesting against the
determinations in favor OF the United
States as against those countries in the
matter Of hemp expectations have been
supplemented by personal statements by
the British and German ambassadors,
which have been communicated to the
Senate committee
At present an export duty OF $3.50 per
ton IS paid upon hemp sent from the
Philippines to England and Germany,
while that which comes to the United
states pays no export duty. and Is ad-
mitteG here free. The effect of this has
been to divert the hemp trade from
England and Germany to the United
States, and to cause serious injury to
the rope industry in Europe Hence
there have been vigorous protests that
this country Is not maintaining an open
door, and threats Of retaliation have
been suggested

WOULD INVESTIGATE
ALLEGED CONSPIRACY
Said That Combine Exists to
Restrain Coal Supply.

Pursuant to the agreement reached by
the House Committee on Merchant Ma
Fine and Fisheries, General Growenor
has introduced resolution in the
House calling for an investigation Of
the charges that combinations or con-
sDiracies exist to restrain the coal sup
ply in the North Atlantic States. Tbs
resolution is as follows.
Resolved. That the Committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries be. and
it is hereby, authorized TO investigate
said facts, charges. and necessities; 10
inquire into the elements and condi-
tons involved in said coal carrying
trade supplying said North Atlantic
States; the cost OF coal. the methods.
facilities and cost OF transportation and
distribution Of the same. and the rea-
sons or causes of such scarcity and dis
tress
Resolved, That said committee make
such investigation and report the tes-
timony with their conclusions thereon
as soon as possible and that said com
mittee have power and authority 10 send
for persons and papers and to admins
ter Caths."
The resolution also provides for the
holding Of meetings IN Washington an
for any expenses incidental to the In
vestigation. The resolution is the out
growth OF that introduced BY Repre-
sentative Mccall Of Massachusetts, pro-
viding that the privileges OF the coast
wise trade be granted foreign steamers
for a period Of ninety days for the ex-
elusive purpose Of carrying coal between
American ports
It has been represented TO the com
mittee that American ships are obliged
to walt so long before getting caFgoes
that they are compelled to pay demur-
rage charges, which causes increased
freight rates

practically reached the conclusion that
IN order for this Government to re
main consistent it must abolish the ex-
port duty. yet there are serious obsta-
cIes in the way of this action In the
first place the duty is needed to main
tain the revenues. Hemp is a staple
article of export, and the tax received
from its expectation is comparatively
large. If 1t is removed. the revenues
will be seriously impaired unless some
means Of supplying the deficit Is found.
Again, the export duty is entirely an
act Of the Philippine Commission. al
though the official sanction and validity
were given to it in the Philippine tariff
bill which passed Congress at It's last
session
Senator Lodges committee has had
the matter under consideration for sew
eraI days. and a decision has practical
" been reached, that the United States
must maintain the open door. although
the means Of doing it without disturb
ing the Philippine revenues has not
yet been fully determined upon. II is
possible that an amendment relating 20
hemp may be added to the bill now in
the Senate TO reduce the tariff upon
Philippine goods coming into the United
States from 20 per cent to 25 per cent
of the Dingley rates.
