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

"A descendant OF the Danes, n ma
ton of coffee drinkers. used coffee
freely till | was 20 years old" writes
a clergyman from Iowa. "At that time
was a student at Biblical Institute,
and suddenly became aware Of the fact
that my nerves had become democrat
lied, my brain dull and sluggish and
that insomnia was fastening its hold
upon me.
Il was loath to believe that these
things came from the coffee / was
drinking, but at last was forced to that
conclusion, and quit it.
IL was so accustomed to a hot table
beverage and felt the need of 1t so
much, that after abstaining from cof-
fee for a time and recovering my
health, | went back to IL. did this
several times, but always with disas-
trous results. I had about made up my
mind that coffee was necessary evil.
About this time a friend told me
that would find Postum Food Coffee
very fine and In many respects away
ahead Of coffee. So bought some and,
making it very carefully according 10
the directions, we we're delighted to
find that he had not exaggerated in the
least From that day 10 this we have
liked IL better than the old kind of
coffee or anything else an the way OF
a table drink.
Its use gave me, in a very short
time, an increase in strength, clear
ness of brain and steadiness of nerves;
aud sleep, restful and restoring, came
back TO me.
- am thankful that we heard Of
Postum. and shall be glad to testify
at any time to the good II has done
me- Name given by Postum Co, Bat

How to Get Higher Standards.

Higher Standards are not o
matter Of thought, but Of life. We
cannot raise Il standards of life
merely by thinking about them.
No inventor ever grew in fertility
of successful ideas by combining
himself to abstract thought, or to
n paper and-pencil theory. He
must put his ideas into practical
and successful operation if he
would gain fresh and improving
ideas. And this is our only hope
of spiritual growth. cod cannot,
or will not reveal new truth to one
who is not living the truth that
he knows. Standards have got to
be lifted, if we would have them
higher, and it takes the lift Of life
to raise them.

Inc GRAND Jury wishes to place upon
record its sense Of appreciation and obi
CATION to the presiding judge for his in.
%structive and appropriate u%tteranceS upon
the subject Of education. 1t appears that
this State is now expanding approximate.
ly the sum Of one million dollars for edu.
c%atlonal purposes, and yet the appalling
statement is made that no less than one
hundred and forty thousand children arc
not attending the schools. This grand
jury realizes the truth that popular educa-
ton ia the bulwark of democracy. Educa :.
ton Of the masses is necessary to the
maintenance of a free government, Man.
hood suffrage has freed the people from
the chains OF despotism forged by the
ancient forms OF government, but if edu.
cation and intelligence be not diAfused
among. the people. il will be nothing
more than the exchange Of one form of
tyranny for another We shall only throw
off the yoke Of the oligarchy and auto.
crat to take up that Of tho ignorant and
capricious multitude. Universal suffrage
is the sheet anchor Of the race, for it to
endure 1t must be exercised in careful
dcliberation by an intelligent electorate.
Democracy. has placed the ballot ia the
hands af the people, it has extended to
them the blessings of education, and it is
fitting that democracy should require the
future citizenship Of the land to prepare
itself for the intelligent exercise of that
ballot, These considerations move us to
declare that we favor such reasonable
laws as will. require all children, exec pit
for good reason to tho contrary, to attend
the public schools.
In conclusion we wish to thank all the
officers Of the Court for their courteous
consideration and kind Instruction.
Respectfully submitted.
