A Bay state belle talks thus about
coffee:

ferer from Indigestion and intensely
painful nervous headaches, from child
hood
Seven years ago my health gave out
entirely. L grew so weak that the ex-
ertion of walking, if only few feet,
made it necessary for me to lie down.
My friends thought I was marked for
consumpt,On-weak, thin and pale.
II realized the danger 1 was in and
tried faithfully to get relief from med
icines, till, at last, after having en-
ployed all kinds of drugs, the doctor
acknowledged that he did not believe
it was in his power to cure me-
while in this condition a friend in
duced me to quit coffee and try Postum
Food Coffee, and I did so without the
least hope that it would do me any
good. did not like it at first, but when
it was properly made / found 1t was a
most delicious and refreshing bever-
age. / am especially fond of it served
at dinner ice cold, with cream.
I'm a months time 1 began to i'm
prove, and in a few weeks my indiges-
ton ceased to trouble me, and my
headache stopped entirely / am so
perfectly well now that / do not look

gained in flesh that I am fifteen pounds
heavier than ever before.

The snOwslide was about 500 feet long,
and at places it was SeVenty-fiVe feet
deep. It was a cOnglOmerate mass of
snow, ice and debris. A large force Of

GOVERNOR-EL ADDRESSES
GEORGETOWN LAW STUDENTS.

Independence in Politics. was the theme
Of an address by Gov-elect James H. Hig-
gins of Rhode Island before the students
sity, 5O6-5OS E street, last eening. When
it was announced that Mr.. Higgins would
address the student body of his alma mater
more than four hundred pupils of George
town Law School gathered in the assembly
hall to hear him. AS he walked to the plat
form the familiar "Hoya, Hoya, Saxa' yell
was uttered with a will When the noise
had subsidized the governor-elect, who is just
thirty years of age, and bears a striking
resemblance to Gov. John Crepps Wickliffe
Beckham of Kentucky, began his remarks.
1t was more in the nature of a college talk,
fellow to fellow. than an address upon the
current issues Of the day.
Among other things the governor-elect
said: Regardless of what your politics
may be, you have a great field before you.
If you are democrat, be Independent and
do not take orders from a party boss. If
you are a republican, be loyal to your
party, and be careful to remember that your
state and your nation are bigger than any
politician Recent victories have shown
that they were to be won without the aid of
the party boss. His day is waning. Let
the politician who is gifted with ordinary
intelligence adhere to clean methods and
he is bound to succeed
Mr.. Higgins paid a glowing tribute to
Georgetown University, and especially to
the School of Law, and declared that the
graduates of his alma mater are recog-
nzed throughout the country and stand
high in every state. He pointed to the state
of Rhode Island, and stated that there it is
only necessary to exhibit diploma from
the law department of the university to OBJ
tain admission to the bar
After he had concluded the men of the
law school formed in line and individually
were introduced 10 the governor-elect. The
latter remembered many of them, and as
they passed him greeted them in friendly
manner
