Get Rid of Vitality sappers.

Debt is great force-waster. because
very few men or women can be heav.
lily in debt without worrying or being
anxious. If you are SO deeply involv-
ed that it is impossible to extricate
yourself without going through bank
ruptcy, then take your bitter medicine
at once and start again. Pay your
debt in full afterward. when you are
able. Get rid of all vitality-sappers
II you have taken an unfortunate -tep
retrace it if you can. Never allow
what is dead and should be buried
to keep bobbing up and draining off
your life-capital in worry or vain re-
grets.-O. s. Marden in Success.

GREAT MEN OF LowLY BIRTH.
Humble Origin No Bar to Accomplish
ments Of Genius.


Most of the great men of history
were of lowly birth. Look over the
list and see how little the 'bornin'
had to do with results and achieve
ments. Lord Wolsey was the son CT
a butcher, Columbus was the son OF
a weaver, Horace the son of a manu-
mitted slave, Sir Richard Arkwright
the son of barber, Shakespeare the
son of wool stapler, Watt the son OF
a blockmaker. Virgil the son of por
ter, Stephenson tie son of a fireman
at a colliery, Burns the son of a rlow-
man, Franklin the son of tallow
chandler. Oliver Cromwell the son of
a brewer. Aesop was slave, Beacons
field was a lawyers clerk, Thomas
Paine staymaker, Defoe a hosier,
son OF a butcher: Demosthenes the
son of a cutler, Ben Johnson was a
bricklayer. Bunyan a travelling tinker.
Edmund Kean was the son of a stage
carpenter, Dickens a reporter and son
of a reporter. Cervantes was COM
mon soldier, Homer was farmers
son and is Jaid to have begged his
bread. The list might be extended
through columns.-Kansas City Star.

Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold

will save not only time, because 1t

Americans Temperate.

France drinks the most wine and
Belgium the most beer. The United
States as consumer of spirits, beer
and wine runs far behind most coun-
tries. The monthly summary OF COM
merce and finance issued by the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor
says:
France shows the heaviest con-
sumption of the most concentrated
beverage spirits, viz: 2.51 gallons per
inhabitant. The other countries, fol-
lowing in order of their per capita
consumption of spirits are: Sweden,
2.13 gallons; Germany, 2.11 gallons;
Belgium, LAP gallons; United King
dom. 1.3S gallons; United States, 1.3s
gallons; Russia, 1.29 gallons, and
Italy, "a gallons.
"The figures per capita of beer con-
sumption reveal the fact that Belgium
stands at the head of the nations. its
per capita consumption being $3.50
gallons; second in order is the United
Kingdom, with 35.42 gallons. while
Germany, which shows the largest alb
solute figures of consumption in the
matter of per capita consumption.
takes third place. with 30.77 gallons;
the United States follows with 1904
gallons.
THE consumption of wine may be
said to be concentrated in two coun-
tries. chiefly France and Italy. The
figures OF per capita consumption in
these countries. 34.73 gallons in France
and 31.s6 gallons in Italy. are almost
identical with those shown for beer
by the United Kingdom and Germany

How Flowers Attract Fees.

1t has long been mooted question
whether insects are attracted to flow
ers by the bright hues of the petals
or by the odor of the flowers. and re-
cent experiments carried out on quite
an extensive scale seem to indicate
that the perfume is the essential di-
rective agent. 1t is concluded that
insects are guided from distance TO
masses of flowers by their perfume
alone, but that where flowers are
grown singly, insects are attracted
generally by color, and where the dis.
tance 10 small the odor doubtless as
sists in attracting and directing the
movements of the flying insects.

craters on the Noon.

From recent photographs. the crat-
ers and crateriets of the moon are es.
timated to number more than 200, 900,
but less than 100000. White patches
in some craters and the bright lines
radiating in some cases hundreds Of
miles are thought by Prof Pickering
to be due to snow, and the less con.
spicuous lunar canals, which gradual.
ly appear, increase and fade away in
the lunar day. are attributed by the
same authority to vegetation. A thin

HAPPY CHILDHOOD.
Right Food Makes Happy Children
Because They are Healthy.

Sometimes milk does not agree with
children or adults. The same thing is
true of other articles of food. What
agrees with one sometimes does not
agree with others.
But food can be SO prepared that it
will agree with the weakest stomach.
As an illustration-anyone, no matter
how weak the stomach, can eat, relish
and digest q nice hot cup of Postum
coffee with a spoonful or two of
Grape-Nuts poured in. and such COM
bination contains nourishment to car
ry one a number of hours, for almost
every particle of it will be digested
and taken up by the system and be
made use Of
A lady writes from the land of the
down in Alabama and says: II was
led to drink Postum because coffee
gave me sour stomach and made me
nervous. Again Postum was recon-
mended by two well known physicians
for my children. and feel especially
grateful for the benefit derived.
Milk does not agree with either
child, SO to the eldest, aged four and
one-half years. give Postum with
plenty of sweet cream. 1t agrees with
her splendidly. regulating her bowels
perfectly although she is Of consti-
pated habit.
For the youngest. aged two and
one-half years, l use one-half Postum
and one-half SKINNED milk. l have
not given any medicine since the
children began using Postum, and
they enjoy every drop Of it.
"a neighbor if mine is giving Pos
tum to her baby lately weaned. with
splendid results. The little fellow IL
thriving famously." Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
Postum agrees perfectly with child
rem and supplies adults with the hot.
invigorating beverage in place of cof-
fee. Literally thousands of Americans
have been helped out of stomach and
nervous diseases by leaving on cof-
Zee and using Postum Food Coffee.
