THAT Rheumatism can be cured has

Mrs. Clawson tells the story of her
cure as follows:
Il was an invalid for most five years

first year l could not do as much as a
baby could do, then rallied little
bit and then relapse. Then a year
ago the govt set in my hands and feet.

From the home OF the famous "Keyh.

ter about Postum:
Il was in very delicate health, suf-
fering from indigestion and a nervous
trouble so severe that / could hardly
sleep. The doctor ordered me to dis
continue the use Of the old kind Of
coffee, which was like poison to me,
producing such extreme disturbance
that ! could not control myself. But
such was my love for it that | could
not get my own consent to give it up
Tor some time, and continued to suffer,
till my father one day brought home a
package OF Postum Food Coffee.
Il had the new food drink carefully
prepared according to directions, and
gave IL fair trial. Il proved to have
rich flavor and made a healthy,
wholesome and delightful drink. To
my taste the addition of cream great.
iy improves It.
'My health began to improve as
soon as the drug effect OF the old cof-
fee was removed and the Postum Cot
fee had time to make its influence felt.
My nervous troubles were speedily re.
lieved and the sleep which the old cof-
fee drove from my pillow always came
to soothe and strengthen me after |
had drunk Postum-in a very short
time / began to sleep better than
had for years before. have now used
Postum Coffee for several years and
like 1t better and find it more beneh-
cial han when first began. 1t is an
unspeakable Joy to be relieved OF the
old distress and sickness" Name

electroscope, consisting of two thin
strips of silver. These, being charged
with electricity from the radium,
move apart, till they touch the sides
Of the vacuum tube in which they are
fixed. There they communicate their
charge to an aluminium wire, which
rings bell, and, being discharged,
fall together again, to repeat the
process indefinitely.
This extraordinary timepiece has
Just been placed on the market in
London.
