The private secretary of the emf

to the railway magnate. suggesting
that the eminent statesman would be
pleased to be favored with an annual
pass. But the railway magnate, hav-
ing formulated a new policy and also
having some wit, returned the applica-
ton with a printed slip containing
the texts: Suffer not man to
pass" and $50 he paid the fare and
went"
II guess that will hold him." chuck

But the private secretary Of the
eminent statesman approached a
railway magnate who operated a par

a brief note to the first magnate. The
brief note consisted OF the simple
text:
And he passed by on the other

A NECESSARY EVIL.
Experience Of a Minister Who Tried
to Think That of Coffee.

"a descendant Of the Danes, a ma
ton Of coffee drinkers, used coffee
freely till was 20 years DID," writes
a clergyman from Iowa. AT that time
I was a student at Biblical Institute,
and suddenly became aware of the
fact that my nerves had become de-
moralized, my brain dull and sluggish
and that insomnia was fastening its
hold upon me.
II was loath to believe that these
things came from the coffee was
drinking, but at last was forced to
that conclusion, and quit 1t.
II was so accustomed to a hot table
beverage and felt the need Of 1t so
much, that after abstaining from cof.
fee for time and recovering my
health, went back to 1t. did this
several times, but always with disas-
trous results. | had about made up
my mind that coffee was a necessary
evil.
About this time a friend told me
that / would find Postum Food Cof-
fee very fine and In many respects
away ahead Of coffee. So bought
some and, making 1t very carefully
according TO the directions, we were
delighted to find that he had not ex.
aggerated in the least. From that day
to this We have liked 1t better than
the old kind OF coffee or anything else
in the way OF table drink.
Its use gave me, In a very short
time, an increase in strength. clear
ness OF brain and steadiness Of
nerves; and sleep, restful and restor.
ing, came back to me.
II am thankful that we heard Of
Postum and shall be glad to testify at
any time to the good 1t has done me-"
