HOW ALICE DID IT.
Learned to Follow Instructions.

II puzzled mother nightly one morn
ing after return from visiting some
friends. She had suffered terribly from
sleeplessness caused by coffee drinking.
and Of course general nervousness and
stomach trouble followed.
Some one told her to quit coffee and
use Postum Food Coffee, but the first
morning it was served to her it was so
inspid and weak that she gave it up and
went to drinking hot water for she did
not care for tea or cocoa
About this time l went visiting and
during the conversation in reply to an in
quiry about mothers health. I told Of her
sleepless nights and general condition.
and of the failure of the new drink that
we tried.
IT observed that my friend looked rather
knowing and wise at this statement, but
thought nothing more of it at the time.
In the morning at breakfast l was
served with a most delicious cup Of coffee
which I drank with great pleasure, but I
noticed my hostess watching me carefully,
finally asked for a second cup and she
burst out laughing and remarked so your
folks don't like Postum was aston
ished and said This is not Postum is it?'
She sent for the package in order to sat
isfy me and it was exactly like the one
mother had. Then I learned that our
failure was caused from not boiling it
long enough so when I reached home
told mother had found a new drink for
her and went into the kitchen and made
it from her old package Of Postum. She
was so delighted with the new drink that
I told her it was Postum, and 1t was anus
ing to see her perplexfty. She looked al
the package and read it over. At last she
said. Alice, how did you ever do it?'
said, BY simply following the directions.
She exclaimed. Why. did not know there
We're any directions 1t seems the cook
had not looked at the package but just
brewed it with little hot water like she
would tea, and that will not make goot
Postum. 1t must be boiled just as the
directions say, then the flavor is delicious
1.-THE next day mother was to give lit
tie COTE party and we served Postum in
stead of coffee. The ladies were all de.
lighted with it and we now have 'Postums
instead Of 'coffees.' and it would astonist
any one to hear the experience of the diff
ferent ladies as to how well they fee
and how soundly they sleep at night since
+. they have adopted Postum instead Of tn,
Old fashioned coffee. and particularly sine.
I. they have followed directions. Nam,

FULL POWER OR NOT ANY
Prest. Leavett Defines the Control
Boards Attitude Toward Ed
ucational Institutions.

President S. w. Leavett of the board of
control appeared before the house COM
mittee on general legislation to-day by
request Of the members. The committee
had before it the Morley bill amending
the board of control act by removing from
its operations the university. the normal
schools, the schools for the deaf and blind
at Faribault and the Owatonna public
school. Mr.. Leavett said that the board
of control did not ask to have the uni
versity board of regents or the normal
schol board abolished, but it did ask to be
relieved Of any divided control Of institu-
tons. ..,a...,
1t was impossible for two boards to
work harmonously in managing the same
institution. He believed that the board Of
control could save money on any. educa-
tiOnal institution. But it was a ques
ton for the legislature whether the insti-
tutions could be as we'll managed by the
board of control as by their own boards.
Mr.. Morley appeared on behalf of his
bill and especially with reference to the
public school at Owatonna. He contend
ed that this was an educational institu-
ton, primarily, and should therefore be
managed by a separate board. In reply,
President Leavett said that the educa-
tional feature Of the school were valuable
but that the average time spent a.
the school by, the children was
only a little over one year. It
was primarily "a stopping place where
the children could be cared for until suit
able homes could be found for them.
In reply to questions by members of the
committee Mr.. Leavett stated that the
per capita cost of the institutions was less
in every case under the first year of the
board of control than under the last year
of a separate board. Mr.. Morley said that
the per capita cost of the Owatonna school
was not so low during the first year Of the
board of control as the average for the
five preceding years. This was easily ex-
planned by the advanced cost of all kinds
Of supplies. He also said that the cloth
ing and other supplies purchased by the
Owatonna school were now. selected by
Superintendent Merrill, just the same as
before and were equal in quality to those
always obtained for the school, The
clothing was fully as good as worn by the
| children of the average wage Garner anc
the food fully as good if not better -.
The committee decided to refer the bill
to a subcommittee to report within
week. Chairman Burns appointed Messrs
Clague, Wilson Fosseen, w. A. Nolan ant
Putnam. 1t is understood that this com
nittee will visit the Owatonna and Fari
bault schools. $685.

-. ton Yesterday, ~. T.

Salt Lake, Jan. PA thousand cheering
and enthusiastic Mormons crowded the
senate chamber yesterday to witness the
election of Apostle Reed Smoot as United
States senator. Governor Wells, himself
q Mormon, uttered these words: r.
II speak as lifelong friend Of Apostle
SmoOt. I congratulate him and I. wish
him godspeed. But shall not attempt
to predict what may be the result Of your
election =. - I
Governor Wells referred to the fact
that Smoot had been elected in the face
of President Roosevelt's warming to the
Utah legislature. When Apostle Smoot
rose to thank the legislature he was pale
faced and visbly affected. He made this
pledge to Utahans: So

FOOD VS.. DRUGS
A Drug Mans Wisdom That Counts.
