Coffee Than Weak One.
A young Viginian says: Having
a naturally robust constitution far
above the average. and not having
nervous temperament, my system was
able to resist the inroads upon IL
by the use OF coffee for some years.

"For ten years | have been en-
ployed as a telegraph operator ard
typewriter by a railroad in this sec
ton and until two years ago had
used coffee continuously from the time
was eight years old, nearly 20 years.
"The WORK OF operating the teie-
graph key Is great strain upon the
nerves, and after the days work was
over I would feel nervous, irritable,
run down, and toward the last suffer-
ed greatly from insomnia and neural
gia. AS I never INDUCED In intoxi-
eating liquors, drugs or tobacco in
any form | came to the conclusion
that coffee and tea were causing the
gradual breakdown of my nervous
system. and having read an article in
the Medical Magazine on the comp osi-
ton Of coffee and its toxic effect upon
the system, was fully convinced that
coffee was the cause of my trouble.
Seeing Postum spoken Of as not
having any of the deteriorating effects
of coffee l decided to give up the
stimulant and give Postum trial. The
result was agreeably surprising. After
time my nerves became wonderfully
strong. can do all my work at the
telegraph key and typewriter with far
greater ease than ever before. My

Singing Badger and Dancing Wolf
May Go to ST. Louis.
South Dakota's exhibit at the
worlds fair may include dancing
wolf and singing badger. The wolf
is Of the coyote family, the property
of Bert Clouse Of Miller. 1t has been
in capacity since early last summer,
which change of life from the open
prairies to close confinement in the
city has greatly agreed with it, for 1t
has grown from a slim little jerky
cub to become a fat, broad-backed,
lazy, gray monster of its kind, weigh
ing about a hundred pounds. The an
imal is a male and bids fair to grow
much larger He is allowed his lib
erty about the house, and, doglike,
takes great interest in chasing cats,
catching and playing with them, but
will not hurt them. Mr.. Clouse ex-
poets to finally succeed in teaching
the azy fellow to dance like a bear.
TIE badger is the property OF Geo.
Fenton. It, too, has prospered in the
confines of the town, and is fat. yell
lowish gray monster of, It's kind,
weighing about twenty pounds. 1t
may be taught to still more plainly
articulate the doggerel, poetic whine
that it now utters when 1t is given
beefstake to eat instead of chicken,
and become in fact a singing badger.
Mr.. Clouse says that he expects to
create as great a sensation at st.
Louis with these two trained live Da-
kota specimens as will be caused by
the stuffed hide of "Hornless Bill,
the lone tramp buffalo recently shot
from ambush 200 miles northwest OF
