POSTUM CEREAL.
6wHAT A CRIME"
To Talk Against Coffee.

To an ambitious student an ailment that
interferes with school and study is very
hard to bear.
A bright young girl in Detroit who had
been poisoned by coffee, is now pur-
suing her studies in perfect health. Prob
ably the coffee champions feel she should
have continued TO suffer and kept on
with the coffee, but now and then there
are self-willed creatures who insist on
getting well by leaving off coffee, de-
serting the "topers' ranks" and joining
the Postum army.
From early childhood till year ago I
was in the habit of drinking three or
four cups of coffee every day
"As I grew older. the bad effects began

idea that il was coffee that was doing the
mischief ] became very nervous, and
suffered so much from severe headaches
that I lost much valuable time from my
school and studies. The doctor could
give me no relief-he probably did not
suspect the coffee any more than ] did.
''One day / went to visit friend. and
the coffee they had on their table tasted
50 good that l asked what kind IL was,
and they told me ii was Postum Food
Coffee. My friend said that her mother
had been a nervous wreck from drinking
the old kind Of coffee. but had been re-
stored TO health by quitting il and drink

thusiastic about Postum and advised me
to Try it,

Builds UP all the waste tissue of the
kidneys. Lash's Bitters.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1905-03-13

Two recent items of information which we find in our exchanges are interesting. One is the assertion of a prominent restaurant keeper in New York to the effect that the many health fads" and foods are causing people to cat less than formerly. The other is the statement, taken from sta- tistics. that in 1904 the American peo- pie paid for bread about $1O0.ooo, ,0oo more than they did the previous year. For sugar the increase was $6o,ooo, ,0oo and for coffee s30, 0,000.000.
 Thus 1t will be seen that in round numbers we paid nearly two hundred millions of dollars more last year than we did the year before for the three articles of breadstuffs. sugar and cof- fee. Probably if meat and meat pro- ducts had been added the overplus would have been 50 per cent. larger, at least. If people are really eating less the above figures will give some idea of the advance in prices of what Americans eat and drink.

How to be Happy.

Happiness is not dependent on out ward circumstances, but on the atti- tude of the mind. That happiness was the destiny of mankind was proved by the fact that the things which make us happy are the simplest and holiest things, such as love requited and duty done. We cannot attain happiness so long as we are indifferent to the hap piness of others. When selfish people want to be pleasant and agreeable they find they cannot do it because they have not formed the habit of doing things simply to please others. Mar riase ought to be the most perfect state of life. and yet when colonists ask for wives a thousand Benedicts reply, Take oursw People would be happier if their homes were less pretentious and more comfortable. Idle women and overworked men make many a house. hold unhappy. People who would be happy must cultivate regular habits of work and play. We miss many of the little things in life that make up the sum of happiness by our anxiety to ar rive prematurely at the great things. In the quest of happiness we cannot do better than put in practice the precepts of the great Persian who said, Taking the first step with the good thought. the second step with the good word and the third step with the good deed. I entered paradise."-F. H.
