frequented the water front quite a
lot.
There was full-rigged ship lying
in the stream named the Mary B.
Horne. She was going from Frisco
to Hong Kong, loaded with American
goods. The captain was looking for
a crew, but we knew a little too much
to travel that way. Those sailing

them-sometimes take the third of a

"My little son. when about a year
and half old. began to have sores
come out on his face. | had a physi-
clan treat him. but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come on
his arms. then on other parts OF his
body, and then one came on his chest.
worse than the others. Then l called
another physician. Still he grew
worse. At the end of about a year
and half OF suffering he grew so bad
had to tie his hands In cloths at
night to keep him from scratching the
sores and tearing the flesh. He got to
be a mere skeleton. and was hardly
able to walk. My aunt advised me to
try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. l
sent to the drug store and got a cake
of the Soap and box OF the Oint-
ment. and at the end Of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores OF any kind
since. He Is now strong and healthy.

TRAMPS FROM NEW YORK TO
FRISCO DURING VACATION.
TELLS OF HIS EXPERIENCES.
Travels from Coast to Coast and
Back to Omaha Without Paying
Cent of Fare-Partner Is
Shanghaied.

Milwaukee, Wis.-With face bronzed
by exposure in the open air, and
hands roughened by hard work in the
fields. Oscar F. Aschman, junior at
Union college, New York, is on his
way back east after being a tramp
for two months.
Yes" said Mr.. Aschman. in an iu-
terview, Il have been a hobo for the
last two months, and | must say
have had enough of it. 1t was my
first experience of the kind and 1t
ought to be my last, and yet I'm
afraid that next year the fever will ee
on me to try it again. This is not
the only time | have been in Milwau-
kee. l passed through here about
June 20 on my way west. For oh
voius reasons did not stop at hotel
or go sightseeing very much. l came
in at II O'Clock midnight on freight.
and went out on another freight 20
minutes afterward.
The people generally don't know
anything about that travelling that
goes on in this country by men who
don't pay their railroad fare. When
l left | thought. of course. that l
should be obliged to take the passen-
ger trains in some places. But here
l am after trip from Batavia, \. Y,
to San Francisco and back again to
Omaha, and | never paid a cent for
riding on train.
AT Omaha, where have some rela-
tives. | ripped some bills out OF my
vest, bought some clothes. and have
travelled the rest of the way in style.
"All through the west | found plen-
ty of work lying around for anyone
who wanted it. At Butte common
laborer is paid three dollars a day.
If man knows a trade he gets more
in proportion. worked week
there pushing a cement car in new
building Then | quit and made hike
south to some Of the ranches. The
work there is hard. They pay you
well, but you are on your feet in hay
ing time from five o'clock in the morn
ing till late at night. | had ali |
wanted at that game in few days.
I'm Missoula formed a partnership
with a hobo who had been hitting the
trail since the year one. He was a

have worked at about every trade un-
der the sun, and he carried a nice,
bright revolver in his hip pocket. We
didn't loaf any on our trip, you can
bet. There wasn't freight train
in the schedule from the time we left
Soula to the morning we plunked
down in Seattle. Most of the way
we rode passengers. How? Well, 1t

IF you ever noticed a passenger

At stations you climb down to the

About What Her Husband Would Say.

A Mich. woman tried Postum Food
Coffee because ordinary coffee dis
agred with her and her husband. She
writes:
"Hy husband was sick for three
years with catarrh of the bladder. and
palpitation of the heart, caused by
coffee. Was unable to work at all
and in bed part of the time.
II had stomach trouble. was weak
and fretful so | could not attend to
my housework-both OF us using cof-
fee all the time. and realizing 1t was
harmful.
"One morning the grocer's wife
said she believed coffee was the cause
of our trouble and advised Postum.
1 took 1t home rather dubious about
what my husband would say-he was
fond OF coffee.
But l took coffee right OF the
table, and we haven't used a cup OF
1t since. You should have seen the
change in us. and now my husband
never complains Of heart palpitGtion
any more. My stomach trouble went
away In two weeks after l began Pos
tum. My children love 1t and 1t does
them good, which can't be said OF
coffee.
"A lady visited us who was always
! half sick. 1 told her I'd make her
cup Of Postum. She said 1t was taste
less stun, but she watched me make
it. boiling 1t thoroughly for Is min
ut.s. and when done she said 1t was
splendid. Long boiling brings out the
flavor and food quality" Name given
