Happiest People In Europe.

If it be in harmony with ones sur
roundingS to work and to thrive little
and to rear children, to have liberty
and security and be tolerant and self
respecting constitute any measure Of
happiness. then the Swiss are by all
odds the happiest people in Europe.
Such, | think. is the judgment of all
observers that have been much among
them. You can test it by simple ref
erence. From every other nation in
Europe there is emigration; from Swift
Zerland little or none. At all times
about 100000 Swiss are in foreign
countries learning languages or meth
DDS of combining travel with work,
but they come home, always they come
home. The typical Swiss never thinks
of making permanent residence out
side of Switzerland. or, if once think
ing so, he changes his mind when he
makes trial thereof.-Everyb ody's Mag
aZine.

WOodcraft.

Woodcraft holds the key to natures
storehouse. A camper should know for
himself how to outfit, how to select
and make camp, how to WELD an ak
and make proper fires, how to cook,
wash. mend; how to travel without los
ing his course or what to do when he
has lost it; how to trail, hunt, shoot
fish, dress game, manage boat or ca
noe and how to eXtemporize such make
shifts as may be needed in wilderness
faring. And he should know these
things as he does the way to his
mouth. Then he is truly woodsman,
sure to do promptly the right thing at
the right time, whatever Lefalls. Such
man has an honest pride in his own
'reSourcefulness, sense of reserve
force, a doughty self reliance that is
coed to feel His is the confidence of
the lone sailOrman who whistles as be
puts his tiny bark out to sea.-Out-

The Coughing Habit.

An irritating cough is not always due
to having a cold. 1t is very often a
habit acquired during the period Of
having one and afterward is more of
nervous, reflex action. When you find
tinually coughing-a dry, short cough
try to check the inclination, and more
often than not the local irritation in
your throat will disappear and the
cough with it.

wrongly Named Pests.

The origin of the so called San Jose
scale is not certainly known, but it is
reasonably sure that it was brought
from China about 1870 on some plants
imported by James Lick and placed on
his property in the Santa Clara valley.
BY 1880 it had come to be recognized
as a serious pest and i'll that year was
found near San Jose and described by
Professor COmstock, who named it
AspidiOtus perniciOsus." That name
being too hard for most of US, the pest
has become known the world over as
the San Jose scale from the place
where it was first found by Professor
Comstock, very much to the disgust Of
the people of that city and vicinity.

the gradual but sure destruction Of
body and health
Nature has a way OF destroying a
part OF the people TO make room for
the stronger. II Is the old law Of "the
survival Of the fttest" at work, and
the victims are many.
We repeat the assertion that coffee
does harm many people, not all. but
an army large enough TO appal the in

The next prevarication Of the coffee
importers and roasters is their state
ment that Postum Food Coffee is made
Of roasted peas, beans or corn, and
mixed with a low grade Of coffee and
that II contains no nourishment.

ments are absolutely false.
