THE TEA PENALTY.
A Strong Mans Experience.

Writing from a busy railroad town the wife of an employe of one ouf the great roads says:
 My husband is railroad man who has been so much benefited by the use me to express his thanks to you for the good you have done him. His waking hours are taken up with his work, and he has no time to write him. self.
 He has been great tea drinker all his life and has always liked 1t strong. Tea has, of late years, acted on him like morphine does upon most people. At first it soothed him, but only for an hour or so, then it began to affect his nerves to such an extent that he could not sleep at night, and he would go to his work in the morning wretched and miserable from the loss of rest. This condition grew constantly worse, until his friends persuaded him, some four months ago, to quit tea and use Postun1.
 t'At first he used Postum only for breakfast, but as he liked the taste of 1t, and it somehow seemed to do him
 
 Then, as he grew better, he began to drink nothing else at table.
 His condition is so wonderfully inn proved during these four months that he could not be hired to give up Post um and go back to tea. His nerves have become steady and reliable once more, and his sleep Is easy, natural and refreshing. He owes all this to Postum for he has taken no medicine and made no other change in his diet. His brother, who was very nervous from coffee drinking, was persuaded by us to give up the coffee and use Postum and he also, has recovered his health and strength" Name given by Postum Go, Battle Creek, Mich.

GREAT INTEREST SHOWN.

Larger Room Had to be Obtained for
 Prof. Phelps Reading of "The Chosen
 People" Last Night-Prolonged Cheer
 ing Ended the Meeting.
 Unexpected interest was manifested last night in the reading by Prof. Will liam Lyon Phelps of the translation of '"rhe Chosen People," the Russian play which is to be presented in the Hyper ion tomorrow night.
 As the time for the reading approach ed it was plain that the room chosen for the reading was entirely too small, so adjournment was taken to room A, which is the largest in Osborn hall. Even this large room was filled to over- flowing, many of those present being Russians.
 The audience proved it's interest by close attention and, when the reading came to an end, all present broke forth into prolonged cheering, which lasted fully five minutes.
 The translation read last night was one made by M. s. Mendel of this city. and was a good rendering of Chirikov's great play. The play is very strong in point of plot and the speakers speak as they would speakSin real life.
 The play will be given in Russian at the Hyperion tomorrow night by the St. Petersburg Dramatic company, which is composed of MT. Orleneff, Mime. Uasemoff, and wonderful group of Russian players.
 A full account of the plot was given fin yesterday's iss1e of +ba Norpjpa Journal and Courier,

Indignation.

Law Notes relates that Albert E.
Pillsbury, former attorney general Of
Massachusetts, on visiting the birth
place Of Horace Greeley in Amherst,
n. H., noticed that there was no pla-
card about the place to inform the
public of its historical interest. Ac-
cordingly he himself tackled on the
house a card which read: This is the
birthplace of Horace Greeley" While
he was engaged at this task passing
native paused to read the card, and,
turning to Mr.. Pillsbury, he remarked
with some acidity: ''The gall Of some
of you fellers that hev made money in
the city is fairly sick'nin'. What do
you suppose folks here care whether
you was born on this farm or some
other farm? Them's my sentiments,
Mr.. Greeley, and don't you forgit itI'

BIuebeard.

"Who was the original Bluebeard?"
asks a writer in the London Chronicle.
He continues: I'VE owe the familiar
Bluebeard Of the pantomime to Charles
Perrault. the Frenchman who publish
ed in 1860! his immortal stories Of
'Bluebeard,' The Sleeping Beauty
Little Red Riding Hood and 'Cinder-
ella But it is very uncertain who, If
anybody, was Perrault's model for
Bluebeard. Some have supposed that
it was our Henry VIII, others that the
tale is a lampoon upon the castle lords
of knight errantry days in general.
Perhaps the favorite candidate has
been Giles de Rails, marshal of France,
who was hanged and burned in 144O
for an awful series of crimes. During
fourteen years he was believed to have
kidnapped about $50 children. tortured
them, sacrificed them to the devil,
burned their bodies and buried their
bones in his castle grounds. But the
resemblance between his tale and Blue
boards is too slight to be convincing"

A Sustaining Deit.

These are the enervating days, when,
as somebody has said, men drop by
the sunstroke as if the Day OF Fire
had dawned. They are fraught with
Isnger' to people whose systems are
poorly sustained; and this leads us
to say, in the interest of the less ro-
bust of our readers, that the full effect
of Hoods Sarsaparilla is such as to
suggest the propriety of calling this
medicine something besides blood
purifier and tonic, say, a sustaining
diet. 1t MAKES 1t much easier TO bear
the heat, assures refreshing sleep,
and will without any doubt avert
much sickness at this time of year.
