OVER THE FENCE
NeiRhhor Says SOmethinp.

The front yard fence is a famous council place on pleasant days. Maybe to chat with some one along the street, or for friendly gossip with next door neighbor. Sonnet imes it is only small talk but other times neighbor has some thing really good to offer. An old resident of Baird, Texas, got some mighty good advice this way once. Drinking coffee had left me nearly dead with dyspepsia, kidney disease and bowel trouble with constant pains in my stomach and back and side and so weak could scarcely walk" he says.
 "One day I was chatting with one of my neighbors about my trouble and told her I believed coffee hurt me. Neighbor said she knew lots of people to whom coffee was poison and she pleaded with me to quit it and give Postum a trial. did not take her ad- vice right away but tried change of climate but it did not do me any good and then dropped coffee and took up Postun1.
 My improvement began immediately and got better every day I used Pos- tum.
 My bowels became regular and in two weeks all my pains were gone; now am well and strong and can eat any, thing want to without distress. All of this is due to my having quit coffee and used Postum regularly.
 My son who was troubled with indi- gestion thought that if Postum helped me so it might help him. It did too, and he is now we'll and strong again. We like the Postum as we'll as we ever liked the coffee and use it altogether in my family in place of. coffee and all keep well.'' Name given by Postum O., Battle Creek, Mich.

Curiou. Mathem.ticaI Fact.

There is certain popular young
lawyer in Atlanta who when in college
was known as the best mathematician
in his class. He is still much interest
ed in knotty questions of figures, and
he propounded query on the street
yesterday that none Of dozen men
could answer.
''Take any two consecutive num-
bers," he said, "say four and FIVE;
square them and subtract the lesser
result from the greater, and the num-
Der you have is the same as the sum
of the numbers you started within
this case four and FIVE, their sum being
nine.
"This will work out every time. no
matter what two consecutive numbers
you take. The rule is well known, but
/ have never been able to find an ex-
PLANTATION of 1t. Why Is this always
true, and can any one explain 1t to
meY
His hearers figured long, but none
was able to tell why the sum Of the
two consecutive numbers is equal to
the difference Of their squares.-Atlan-

The Anger Eisl,.

The anger fish. half fish, half crab.
Is the terror of all vessels but iron
clads that use the south seas. This
creature, which is not bigger than an
almond, has a proboscis like an en-
large gnat sting that can bore through
even sheet iron. Anger fish frequent
many of the lagoons of the coral
islands and burrow holes for them
selves in the coral, but they have a
perverse habit of doing the same thing
to ships lying at anchor, and the dam
age generally shows itself when next
the vessel is at sea in bad weather.

Institutions may crumble and gov
ernments fall, but 1t is only that they
may renew better youth. The petals
of the flower wither that the fruit

springing always from moral power,

harmed from the field Of carnage, CIV
ing to battles all that they can have Of
luster and to warriors their only glory,
surviving martyrdoms and safe amid
