AS in the case first cited he will re.

dier's pay. So or so cents a day by be.
ing detailed for duty in some of the
places in which extra duty is paid at
these rates.
From this it may be seen that an
Industrious man can earn from $40 to
SIS month in addition to his pay
Any money saved can be deposited in
the treasury in sums not less than SIS

be forfeited except by desertion, thus
giving the enlisted man bank and
surety for saving, such as no citizen in

A private soldier with fair educa.
tion, who proves himself, by his con-
duct, his duty we'll done, his efficiency,
and aptitude, will always sooner OF
later get the first step upward-that
of a corporal, from where, if he is am
bilious and shows fitness, he can be
sure that his work and talents will
be noted and rewarded by further pro-
motion. For it may be truly said that
while we have no field marshal in our
service and we cannot literally repeat
Napoleons assertion, that every sol.
dier carries marsha1s baton in his
knapsack, still the highest rank in our
army to-day is held by a lieutenant
general who was at one time a recruit.
He succeeded man, Lieutenant Gen.
eral Young, who also started as a
private, and when General Young re.
linquished the highest rank in our
army, he sent to his successor pair

while those who enlist at present with

from love of soldiers life. To say
that a man loves the life is simply
saying that he is born soldier, and
his success in the army is assured.

The Man With the Hoe.

President James ]. Hill of the Great

very eloquent in relation TO homes upon
the arid lands of the West.

DUST THE DEMON.
A Tussle with Coffee.

There is something fairly demoni-
ncal in the way coffee sometimes
wreaks its fendish malice on those
who use it.
A lady writing from Calf says:-
my husband and |, both lovers of
coffee, suffered for some time from
very annoying form of nervousness.
accompanied by most frightful head
aches. In my own case there was
eventually developed some sort of af-
fection of the nerves leading from the
spine to the head.
Il was unable to hold my head up
straight, the tension of the nerves
drew 1t to one side, causing me the
most intense pain. We got no relief
from medicine. and were puzzled as
to what caused the trouble. until
friend suggested that possibly the cof-
fee we drank had something to do
with it, and advised that we quit it
and try Postum Coffee.
1--WE followed his advice, and from
the day that we began to use Postum
we both began to improve. and in
very short time both of us were
entirely relieved. The nerves became
steady once more. the headaches
ceased. the muscles in the back Of my
neck relaxed. my head Strengthened
up and the dreadful pain that had SO
punished me while used the old kind
of coffee vanished.
1--WE have never resumed the use OF
the old coffee, but relish our Postum
every day as well as we did the
former beverage. And we are de-
lighted to find that we can give 1t
freely to our children also, something
we never dared to do with the old
kind Of coffee" Name given by Pos
itup Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
Postum Coffee contains absolutely
no drugs OF any kind. but relieves the
coffee drinker from the old drug
poison.
There's reason.

= 1t must be borne in mind, says a
writer, that one essential for leading
happy life in the United States Army
the ranks tells tale of unnecessary
hardships endured, or other griev-
ances, it is certain to be merely the
natural result of bad conduct, and Of
leading lazy and dissolute life, and
the same man would have Jared
equally bad in any other walk of life,
or that he is inexperienced and does
not know how to care for himself or
fails to attend to the directions re-
ceived.
The army is necessarily governed
by intelligent regulations, and strict
obedience is required of all, for with
out this nothing could be done, and
what is now viewed by the world as
magnificent fighting force would be-
come of no more use than an armed
mob.
While the ordinary citizen may view
with some contempt the proffer of S13
month for his daily work, still how
many to-day toiling eight, ten. and
sometimes sixteen hours, are making
on an average of $50 month, or an
income of S720 year? This is what
the average soldier in the United
States Army is getting to-day, when all
clothing, medical attention, medicines,
baths, free gymnasium libraries, with
books of all Sorts magazines, periodi

the soldiers use where he may pur-
chase at cost such soft drinks and arti-
cles as may be deemed necessary for
his comfort and where may be found

supply of games, such as chess, check

Politicians and the Truth.

No politician can afford to tell the
