FOUND OUT.
A Trained Nurse Made Discovery

No one is in better position to know the value of food and drink than a trained nurse.
 Speaking of coffee. nurse of Wilkes Barre. Pa, writes: T used to drink strong coffee myself, and suffered greatly from headaches and indiges- tion. While on a visit to my brothers I had a good chance to try Postum Food Coffee, for they drank it alto gether in place of ordinary coffee. In two weeks after using Postum I found I was much benefited and finally my headaches disappeared and also the indigestion.
 Naturally I have since used Postum among my patients, and have noticed a marked benefit where coffee has beer left of and Postum used
 'I observed a curious fact about Postum when used among mothers. It greatly helps the flow of milk in cases where coffee is inclined to dry it up, and where tea causes nervousness.

It should be boiled 15 to 20 minutes after boiling begins and served with cream. when it is cer- tainly a delicious beverage" Read e"The Road to Melville" in pkgs There's Reason"

DOOMED FOR PRESIDENT

It has frequently been suggested that as the south furnishes the greater portion of the Demo- cratic vote. the next candidate of that party for president should be a southerner.
 Recent events have given Gov. Robert B. Glenn of North Caruaina so much prominence that many in his section have begun 10 boom him the com ing national standardbearer of the Democracy. although the governor himself diselaims any ambi- ton for that honor.
 Gov. Glenn set himself in what appeared to be an attitude of opposition to federal authority after United States Judge Pritehard had intervened to prevent the enforcement of oppressive new state law requiring. under confscatory penalties. the railroads of the Tarheel state to make a max imum passenger rate of not more than 24 cents

WHISKEY LICENSES.
Misrepresentation as to Powers Of
Court in Matter.

A great deal has been said In The Com
mon Council and Board OF Aldermen from
time to time as TO the powers Of the
courts in the matter of granting licenses
to sell LIQUOR. and occasionally there has
been some disposition to criticize the
courts for granting license to parties
who. in the Judgment OF the speakers,
We're unfit to exercise the privilege. And
strange as 1t may seem, none of the law
yers In either body has undertaken TO
make statement OF the conditions under
which licenses are granted While no
judge will allow himself to be quoted on
the matter. 1t may be stated on the au-
thority of sound lawyers substantially
what the powers and responsibilities of
courts are In this matter.
The conditions of granting liquor
licenses are set forth in the statutes,
and the Council has nothing 10 do with
them 1t may be stated, however. that
Judges of courts having jurisdiction OF
such matters are required ia grant
licenses when tho conditions prescribed by
the statute have been complied with. The
judge himself is not vested with dis
cretion or authority to accept or re-
jcct any man who may apply, the fitness
of the applicant being a matter to be
decided by the prcponderancc OF testimony
know every man who applies. his private
life. character or ha bits, and in the very
nature of the case cannot leave the bench
and make n searching inquiry into the
past OF the applicant.
II two or more reputable witnesses come
into court and vouch for the applicant
as a tit and proper person, and If the
court deem tho place a TT and proper
one and no objection Is off red by any
one, either to the applicant or the place
where lie proposes to sell, then the grant
ing of the license must follow. 1t would
be dangerous to confer arbitrary power
upon judges to accept or reject I'm APP
plicant unless cause has been shown.
The time for filing applications for IL
ccnse Is made known every year and
the time for hearing objections Is also
publicly announced. II no one comes for
ward to object to an applicant, and if he
Is endorsed by two or more men of
good standing, the license is issued
II more stringent regulations for the
granting OF license may be desired they
may be provided by statute, but until
they are courts can only be governed
in their action by the statutes existing.
