A Sensitive Soul.

Owen Nudge was very sensitive man. More than once at harsh word he had forsaken profitable work and gone home for sympathy to his wife. One morning Owen started out to help Glenn Butler, who had bought a new stump-pulling machine and was pre- pairing to clear a field.
 Toward noon Owen came back. Mrs. Nudge sighed and waited sympathetic ally for the explanation.
 q just couldn't stand it." said Owen, rubbing his jaw. .'When I see that stump-puller twist them roots out, it reminded me so of the times I went to the dentist to get back teeth ex- tracted. The first thing I knew I was limp as rag, and I just ached all over and had to quit. ."-Youths Con- paniOn.

GOLD LEAVING GERMANY.
Wall Street Conditions Has Good Ef-
 feet on German Financlers.

Berlin, Germany-Gold continues to leave Germany in a steady stream. The Reichbank lost probably $3,OOO,- 900 during the past week, but the stock has been more than replenished through arrivals from home sources. The Reichbank is trying to increase its gold supply by paying out bank notes of small denominations which re gently became available for circula- ton.
 The impression here is that most Of the gold taken for the United States during the week was drawn from the open market. The tendency shown in Wall street the past few days has had q calming effect upon the minds of the financial community and the hope is now entertained that a gradual recov- cry will now set in in the United States.

The Reason of It,
BEGAN YOUNG.
Had "Coffee Nerves" from Youth.

When very young I began using coffee and continued up to the past six months," writes a Texas girl
 "I had been exceedingly nervous, thin and very sallow. After quitting coffee and drinking Postum Food Cof- fee about a month my nervousness disappeared and has never returned. This is the more remarkable as l am a Primary teacher and have kept right on with my work.
 My complexion now is clear and rosy, my skin soft and smooth. As a good complexion was something I had greatly desired, l feel amply repaid even tho this were the only benefit derived from drinking Postum.
 Before beginning it's use I had suffered greatly from indigestion and headache; these troubles are now un- known.
 Best of all I changed from coffee to ,Postum without the slightest incon- venience, did not even have head ache. Have known coffee drinkers who were visiting me, to use Postum week without being aware that they were not drinking coffee
 'I have known several to begin the use of Postum and drop it because they did not boil it properly. After explaining how it should be prepared they have tried it again and pro- nounced it delicious"

SORES AS BIG AS PENNIES.
Whole Head and Neck Covered-Hair All Came Out-Cured in Three
 Weeks by Cuticura.

7 After having the measles my whole head and neck were covered with scaly sores about as large as a penny. They were just as thick as they could be. My hair all came out. let the trou- ble run along, taking the doctors blood remedies and rubbing on salve, but it did not seem to get any better. It stayed that way for about six months; then got a set of the Cuticura Reme- dies, and in about week I noticed big difference, and in three weeks 1t was well entirely and have not had the trouble any more, and as this was seven years ago, I consider myself cured.

 General Demand

of the We'll Informed of the World has always been for simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because it's com ponent parts arc known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action.
 In supplying that demand with it's ex- cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for it's remark able success.
 That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-Informed. To get it's beneficial effects always buy the genuine-manufact by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co.,, only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.

Those who have fled abroad are invited to return to Austria. Thus thousands who fled to America to avoid military service, many of whom are now thought to be stranded in that country, will be able to return peacefully to their native country.

PLANS To AMEND
JERSEY AUTO LAW.
New Provisions WilbMake Consider
able Change in Statute As
IL Now Stands.

TRENTON, Feb. 1S:-Among the
bills likely TO be introduced in the
legislature this week is one to pro-
! vide for a number of amendments to
| the present automobile law. This
amendatory measure has behind 1t
the powerful Automobile Club of New
Jersey and is likewise favored by the
State Department of Motor Vehicles.
1t will require the state TO furnish Ii
cense-registratio tags for all ma
chimes registered, in order to secure
uniformity of size and appearance.
1t will abolish the right to arrest
without warrant, but will provide
for an increase to twenty the number
of state automobile, inspectors. This
increase of force and the use of uni
form tags on all machines is expected
to make comparatively easy the task
of apprehending violators of the law
and at the same time will relieve au-
toists of the annoyance of being liable
to arrest at the hands of any rural
constable who may want to distin-
guish himself and make few dol
lars for himself and a friedly justice
of the peace.
Another concession to be asked in
this bill is that registered autoists
from other states may pass across
New Jersey without further register
ing or expense.
