camnhor for the Piano.

Now" said the tuner when he had
finished tuning the piano, you ought
to put some camphor in the piano"
CGmphor?" said the owner of the
instrument.
Yes said the tuner, TO keep the
moths out. Moths get into the pianos,
as they do into closets and elsewhere,
and here they feed on the felt cover
ings of the hammers, eating away
their surfaces, and so impairing their
effect. What you want is a couple of
camphor balls, each in little bag of
cheese cloth, hung inside the piano,
one at either SIDE"

COFFE. 4EART


Very Plain in Some People.
A great many people go on suffering
from annoying ailments for a long
time before they can get their own
consent to give up the indulgence from
which their trouble arises.
A gentleman in Brooklyn describes
his experience, as follows:
81 became satisfied some months ago
that l owed the palpitation Of the
heart, from which | suffered almost
daily, to the use Of coffee Il had been
coffee drinker for 80 years., but
found it very hard to give up the bev-
erage.
Il realized that Unjust give up the
harmful Indulgence in coffee, but I
felt the necessity for hot table drink,
and as tea is not to my liking, l was
at loss for while what to do.
Zone day / ran across a very SEN
sible and straightforward presentation
of the claims Of Postum Food Coffee,
and was so impressed thereby that l
concluded to give it a trial My ex-
perience with it was unsatisfactory
Iii L I0dEHGu how II ought u UC pre-
pared-by thorough boiling for not
less than Is or 20 minutes After |
learned that lesson there was no trou-
BILE. Postum Food Coffee proved to
be a most palatabIe and satisfactory
hot beverage, and l have used it ever
since.
"The effect on my health has been
most salutary, 1t has completely cured
the heart palpitation from which
used to suffer so much, particularly
after breakfast, and l never have a re-
turn Of it except when I dine or lunch
away from home and am compelled to
drink the old kind of coffee because
Postum is not served. I find that
Postum Food Coffee cheers and invig-
crates, while it produces no harmful
stimulation" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Greek. Mich.
There's a reason.
Ten days trial proves an eye opener
to many.

NO MORE HEADACHE
GENERAL WEAKNESS AND FEVER
DISAPPEAR TOO.
How a Woman Was Freed from Troubles
That Had Made Life Wretched for
Many Years.

The immediate causes Of headaches
vary, but most Of them come from poor
or poisoned blood. In an8mia the blood
is scanty or thin the nerves are imper-
fectly nourished and pain is the way in
which they express their weakness. In
colds the blood absorbs poison from the
mucous surfaces, and the poison irritates
the nerves and produces pain. In rheu-
matism, malaria and the grip, the poison
in the blood produces like discomfort. In
indigestion the gases from the impure
matter kept in the system affect the
blood in the same way. Il
The ordinary headache-cures of best
give only temporary relief They deaden
the pain but do not drive the poison out
of the blood. DR.. Williams Pink Pills
on the contrary thoroughly renew the
blood and the pain disappears perma-
nently. Women in particular have found
these pills an unfailing relief in head
aches caused by an@mia.
