JoE'S LUCK

81 had made up my mind that coffee
was at least partly to blame, and that
could cure him after marriage by
the use of Postum Food Coffee.
"When | told my young sister
about it, she laughed and said, Just
wait and see! After you are married
you'll find that Joe will have his
coffee anyway
81 proceeded gradually, first elimin-
ating by degrees the pastry and
sweets from the daily menu, and as
his meals were always daintily serv-
ed and appetizing he began to have
faith in his wife's ability as a cook.
Meantime his headaches became
less frequent, but did not cease alto,
gether. When the time was ripe and
proposed to. use Postum Food Cof.
fee he consented upon the promise
that he should have the old kind of
coffee at his Sunday breakfast. He
grew fond of the new food drink,
however, and noted that after drink
ing the old coffee on Sundays he
suffered from unsteady nerves and a
dull heavy feeling that he never had
on the days when he drank Postum.
The result was that at last he said,
Il would rather have the Postum
Food Coffee Sunday morning, too, if
you don't mind, my dear. The old
kind makes me feel like a fool all
day You may imagine how ready |
was to fall in with his suggestion.
The old kind of coffee has been ban,
ished from our table for more than
2 years now; Joe's headaches are on
ly a memeory and he always has
steady nerves and clear brain to
meet the exacting demands of his
business. On hot summer days he
relishes glass of clear, cold Postum
with a squeeze of lemon, at noon,
finding it most refreshing.
''In the winter | make up a pot of
Postum Coffee in the evening, boiling
it 15 minutes, and let it set on the
back of the range till morning, when
it is heated and ready to serve in a

BANK OFFICIALS EXCLUDED
! AND THE EXCISE BOARD STILL
UNDER CONSIDERATION

The Grand Jury yesterday afternoon
.hanie mp to Judge Blair batch Ct 16o
indictments. The Judge wos presiding
tn case in the Orphans Court at the
time. The batch Of indictments was
handed over to the Clerk and was not
gwen out at the time to reporters. 1t is
said that included in the list is one
lgairst Thomas ] higgins, the former
secretary and Treasurer of the West
Hudson Trust Company, of Harrison,
lor alleged questionable trarsactions with
he finds of the bank.
L had been decided to included in the
Indictment against higgins the officers
und directors of the institution. but the
injustice Of this was pointed out and
they were excluded.
Other indictments, it was said. were
against Louis Diehm John Magner ard
Henry FRANKIE constituting the Board
of Boulevard Commissioners. They are
charged with exceeding their appropria-
kions.
Patrick Mccain member of the
iTown Council of Weehawken and his
partner John Gallery are charged with
violation Of the section of the law pro-
aibting officials to sell goods to any
municipality with which they are Of
6ciaily connected. They are engaged in
lie coal business,
Minor officials in other townships in
he county were indicted for alleged
malfeasance.
Notwithstanding the persistent rumors
that the members Of the Excise Board
had been indicted no indictments were
banded ~up against them. It is under
stood that the matter is still under con4
sideration. Ii is based on the recent pub
lie assertion of President George w.
Decker to the effect that at least two
hundred saloon licenses were issued by
the Excise Board that should not have
been issued.

for attendants because of their Ssevere
black dress suits. Republican simplici-
ty' sounds well, but 'in Rome do as the
Romans do and as other nations pre-
scribe consular dress we should GER
tainly range ourselves beside them If we
are TO compete with them"
Just now the State Department is busy
explaining TO Consuls that there is no
cash available to pay the expenses of the
consulates for the remainder ofthis year,
because of the refusal of Congress to
make provision for such items in the
urgent deficiency bill. American Consuls
all over the world have been notified not
to make further drafts, as the contingent
fund is exhausted. What this means is
that there is no money to buy pens,
paper, postage stamps or lead pencils, no
money to pay telephone rentals, nothing
for clerk hire. A Consul in Japan cabled
the department yesterday that he was
being obliged to refuse to receive i'm
voices for shippers to this country, as
he had no clerk to do the clerical work,
The probability is that the money for
these purposes will be included in the an
nua1 appropriation bill, but that viii not
be available before July, and in the mean
while American consular agents have got
to pay their own office expeness or close
up shop. Probably mostsof them will pay
out their own money and take chances
of getting it back, but it dons't seem
like a particularly credible thing for a
representative of this big country TO have
to do, and, besides, man keeping up ap-
pearances, supporting family and main
tanning the dignity of the American peo-
pie ON salary of $4,000 or $2,5o0 year
isn't likely to be financially able to lend
the government very much money.
In comparison with this penurious pol
ley, it is amusing to read that the Senate
passed the pension bill giving away s1o,-
s000,000 without debate and without a
roll call. Congress seem sto be unable
to distinguish between economy and
cheese-paring as the average Common
Council or Legislature.
