FIT THE GROCER
Wife Made the Suggestion.

A grocer has excellent opportunity to know the effects of special foods on his customers. A Cleveland grocer has long list of customers that have been helped in health by leaving off coffee and using Postum Food Coffee.
 He says, regarding his own expe- rience: Two years ago I had been drinking coffee and must say that I was almost wrecked in my nerves.
 Particularly in the morning I was so irritable and upset that I could hardly wait until the coffee was served, and then 1 had no appetite for breakfast and did not feel like attend ing to my store duties.
 "One day my wife suggested that inasmuch as I was selling so much Postum there must be some merit in it and suggested that we try it. I took home a package and she prepared it according to directions. The result was very happy one My nervous ness gradually disappeared and to-day l am all right. 1 would advise every one affected in any way with nervous ness or stomach troubles, to leave off coffee and use Postum Food Coffee" There's a Reason" Read.

WORDS OF CHEER.

From all quarters comes the cheer ing news that the great Farmers Un- ion is moving onward with rapid progress, even the great Hearst jour- nals of Chicago, New York and San Francisco, have awakened to the i'm portance of the Farmers Unon and are devoting considerable space to write-ups of the various State organi- done by each. Thus it will be seen that by strict adherence to the prin- ciples upon which the Union is found- ed and by a due observance of the State officials, we have won our way into the hearts and minds of even the great business centers of the coun- try. Our success is assured by no better evidence than is manifested by the onward progress and the reputa- ble mention by the great leading jour nals, of the order and it's work. De. voted exclusively to business as is the aim and purpose of the Union, every auxiliary of business enterprise in America must recognize force and ef- feetive business ability of the farmer as class. It has been frequently said in years past and gone that you could not organize the Farmers effec- lively for they would not stick to- gether. This, vas in the main true, considered from a political view, but we are today only in our infancy of the first practical test of a business organization of the farmers and we feel confident that the business pow CT and accomplishments manifested by the organization today are suffi- ciently strong to dispell from the minds of any "doubting Thomas" this old idea that the farmer won't stick Arkansas Union Tribune.

When I haven't got it, I'm worrying as to where I'll get 1t, and when I get it I worry about what to do with it; if I put it in the bank I worry because it don't grow fast enough, and if I spend it worry because I got rid of it so soon; so you see, it's world full O trouble anyway you take it! The poor bless and curse it; the rich don't know what to do with it.; there isn't a hand full of happiness in a ton of it. Here comes bill collector now, to get what little I haven't got.

The thousands of ex-union officers and soldiers who have died during the 3S years since the first Decoration day, and the hundreds that have fall en since the Spanish-American war, and whose bodies have been borne across the sea to be buried in Arling- ton, have made this the largest city of patriotic dead on the globe. This 30th of May, like all others, will see every low green mound of the extensive field covered with flowers and immortelles. There will be repetition of the an nual ceremonies, with probably addi- tional interesting features.
 The patriotic organizations, sons and daughters of veterans, and the loyal people have taken up the work which older hands have had to lay down. The spirit of gratitude and de- votion to the memory of the country's defenders inspires the whole nation to-day as it did in 1868.

we are in the presence of the. dea But not all the associations of this < < -s umphan., oyen joyful.
 We seem to hear the funeral march become pean. Our heroic dead still live for us, and bid us think of life, not death-of life to which in their youth they lent the passion and glory of the spring.
 Memorial day may and ought to have a meaning beyond mere honor to the dead. It celebrates and solemnly re-affirms from year to year national act of enthusiasm and faith. It em- bodies in the most impressive form our belief that to act with enthusiasm and faith is the condition of acting greatly.
 Peace calls for it's patriotic devo- tion, no less than war. And, stripped of the direct associations which gave rise to it, this is a day when by com mon consent we pause to become con- scious of our national honor and to re- joice in it, to recall what our country has done and is doing for us, and to ask ourselves what we can do for our country in return.

Don't forget that the farmer is one man and the planter is an entirely oif- ferent sort of a fellow. The farmer works on the farm and is a farmer, but the planter is one who has a farm worked, just the same as a manufac- turer has a factory run by a bunch of operatives. One is business investment, the same as a stock com pany or stock of goods bought for sale. The real farmer is the man who blows the soil and depends upon the farm for his living. It is for the farmer that the Farmers Union was organized, and in it's purely primal condition, it fits his conditions. Keep out all the frills and furbelows of the farmer who does not really farm and She organization will be one of the largest benefit to the farmer; ut fill it with the plans of the specula- tive farmer, and the real farmer will lose out.

A trip across the country a few days since revealed at least ninety per cent of the implements and vehi- cles of the farmers out in the hot sun, which had just been preceded by a rain. That same. farmer who wilfully destroys his tools and implements would be arrested if he took an axe and chopped them up, but the destruc- tion by weather, which is no less a crime, goes on all over the country, and only the farmer and his family ever suffer for it. What? Not OH your life When anything is destroy ed that was of use or that would have been of use, the whole nation and the whole world is that much poorer. No one has right to destroy the wealth of the world.
