When a simple change of diet brings back
health and happiness the story is briefly
told. lady of Springfield. ILL.,. says: After
being affiicted for years with nervousness
and heart trouble. I received a shock four
years ago that left me in such a condition
that my life was despaired OF. / could get
no relief from doctors nor from the number
less heart and nerve medicines / tried be-
cause 1 didn't know that the coffee was
daily putting me back more than the doc
tors could put me ahead.
Finally. at the request OF friend. / left
OF coffee and began the use of Postum and
against my convictions / gradually i'm
proved I'm health until for the past 6 or S
months have been entirely free from
nervousness and those terrible sinking
weakening spells Of heart trouble.
my troubles all came from the use OF
coffee which / had drunk from childhood

Many people marvel AT the effects OF
leaving on coffee and drinking Postum, but
there Is nothing marvellous about it-only
common sense.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis JournaI:
/ am inclined to take issue with you upon
your short editorial paragraph concerning
the Logsdon matter. 1 am not a lawyer.
therefore l assume you will concede the
probability that / may use common sense,
which you theoretically argue lawyers are
incapa bic OF doing. The editorial I refer to
occurs in your issue of to-day. Now, my
point, that an act such as Stahrs, made
in the interest of the moral welfare Of not
politi--.) OF this community. is or was with
out criminal intent on Stahl's part. and.
therefore being without such intent and In
the interest OF good morals and political
purity, Is not within the purview OF any
criminal statute. and on the contrary, will
be seconded and applauded by all honest
men. Irrespective Of politics. and this not
imputing to Mr.. Logsdon any but the high
est motives. EDWARD +. GALE.

A MstricaI Auecdote.

The following metrical anecdote,
written by DR.. ]. NJ CLANCY, Of In
dependence, appeared last week in the
Examiner. 1t concerns the much
beloved late DR.. P. H. ChamterS,
whom scores of our readers have heard
tell the story;
For ueatness in dress, knew Of no
other
Like good DR., Chambers who once
lived 10 Dover;
On horseback he sat like 6 general
in war,
At once would remind you of young
Lochinvar.
Once he was called to the country
to go,
The distance was great, some six
miles or so;
His horse was too sick to travel that
day,
The patient vas poor, unable to pay
The doctor was sorry; kind hearted
was he;
The poor man was troubled as doctor
could see:
To ride the mans horse the doctor
agreed,
Thus be would go and return with all
speed.
The horse, as it proved, was an old
gray mule;
The doctor astride him, said he felt
like a fool:
The mule was SO polky, could get up
no trot,
Doubtful it seemed if he got there
or not.
Some four miles out, by Sam Down
ing's abode,
Something he saw in the midst Of
the road;
When doctor got nearer, a big owl
it proved,
Shot by some hunter, as on wing it
moved.
1t laid on its back 10 the dust where
it fell,
Whether dead or alive no n could
tell;
The mule, it would seem, had a
curious desire,
To inspect the poor bird, in It's
strange attire.
Reaching the spot where the poor
bird had dropped,
The mule, on its own accord, suddenly
stopped:
To aid the mules wish, satisfaction
to gain,
The kind hearted doctor threw down
the reiu.
The mule, that the facts he might
ascertain well,
Reached down his head, the poor bird
to smell:
New life in that bird that instant
arose,
With sharp claws be caught the mule
by the nose.
New life in the mule seemed suddenly
thrust;
He sprang 10 the air:--doctor fell in
the dust;
The doctor arose, toward the mule
turned his face,
And saw the mule flying at a two,
forty pace.
The doctor was mad; so mad he could
shoot,
He called the mule hateful; deceltfu
old brute;
[ IF l we're uow on you, with tina
: gait indeed,
; Back to my home I could go with al
speed"
The mule, with the owl, continue,
his fight,
Soon in the distance was lost to hi
3 sight:
The doctor, all dusty, the joke coul
not see;
But always, when telling it, laughe
> heartily.

when the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk Of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

Trust Observation-Disclosures List Of
500 Trusts.

The republican so-called antitrust
law just passed by the Congress-, and
which gives to the new department. Of
commerce and labor the power to in
Tsstigate and gather informatlo q about
cerIain great corporations or trusts,
and to report such data to the presi.
dent, is q meaningless and harmless
ore so far as the trusts are concerned
Here Is the law In a nutshell, and you
a draw your own conclusions, as it
is a combination Of .Ifs":
II, the secretary of this new depart
ment is so inclined he may fish for
facts in regard to trusts;
II, the chief Of the bureau of corpor-
atoms in this new department is not
owned by the trusts, and if BIZ IS
capable, and il be has competent and
honest assistants and if they fish in the
right place, they may obtain valuable
data;
Ii, when valuable data is obtained,
the president wishes, be may have
access to it;
II, then, the president has time to
read il and sees fit to do SO, be may
make public some or all OF this data; or,
If he thinks best, he may simply
make recommendations to Congress
for legislation" to regulate trusts;
If, then, Congress- is MOI controlled
by the allied trusts and railroads, i
may, in the course of time, pass new
legislation to curb trusts;
If. then, the Encouragement Is so
Inclined, and il he has time, he may
apply the new Legislation to The Offend
ing trusts;
Ii, then, the evidence is sufficient,
the courts may In years to come,
decide that The new legislation is con-
S%tItutional, and that some particular
trust has been guilty Of illegal prac.
tees;
If, then, the trust has not already
changed its form or ceased to exist, II
may pay a nominal fine, and, IN the
cours Of eight or ten years-as did the
Standard Oil Trust-slightly change

men, Hon. Chas. E. Littlefeld, Of
Maine, whom the administration last
year selected to present the only
Simon-pure anti trust bill IN congress,
has settled this discussion in his party.
Mortified, perhaps because bis bill was
sheIyed by the trusts which controlled
his party, he resolved to bit them and
their agents in congress a back handed
swipe which would make them grasp
for breath. He got together and pub
lished in the Congressional Record a
''list of trusts"-not corporations
simply, but real trdsts-wbioh fills
than six pages of the Congress
sional Record. He says of this list that
it "conlalns the grand total Of nearly
800 trusts, with a total capitalization
of nearly fourteen billions. These totals
are fully So per cent larger than those
Of any other list hitherto published"
The list puts in the shade any list
published by the democrats or in any
almanac or year book. 1t must make
Senator Hanna's Hair curl to see this
list put INTO the Record by a greet
republican. Had the list included rail-
