Ladies' Want Saloon Money.

Montgomery, Ala.-The presence Of
ladies using their influence against
the passage of a state prohibition bill
was a novelty enjoyed by the mem
bers of the legislature Monday. The
bill has already passed the house.
The women appealed to senators to
kill the measure or amend it to make
it effective not earlier than 1910. The
first on the ground were Mrs. E. Sem
mes Coliton, daughter of the Confed-
crate admiral, Raphael Semmes, and
Miss Kirkland, who, as officers of the
Mobile schools, say the loss of the sa'
loon taxes will make it impossible to
carry on the schools.

SCHOOL TEACHERS
Also Have Things to Learn.

For many years have used coffee
and refused to be convinced of it's bad
effect upon the human system" writes
a veteran school teacher.
Ten years ago l was obliged to give
up my much loved work in the public
schools after years of continuous la
Dor. 1 had developed well defined
case of chronic coffee poisoning.
"The troubles were constipation,
flutterings of the heart, a humping
in the top of my head anS various
parts of my body, twitching of my
limbs, shaking of my head, and, at
times after exertion, a general gone"
feeling with a toper's desire for very
strong coffee. 1 was nervous wreck
for years.
"a short time ago friends came to
visit us and they brought package of
Postum with them, and urged me to
try it. was prejudiced because some
years ago 1 had drunk u cup of weak,
tasteless stuff called Postum which l
did not like at all.
This time, however, my friend
made the Postum according to direc-
tions on the package, and it won me-.
Suddenly 1 found myself improving in
a most decided fashion.
"The odor of boiling coffee no long
er tenpts me. 1 am so greatly bene-
flied by Postum that If l continue to
improve as I am now, I'll begin to
think 1 have found the Fountain of
Perpetual Youth. This is no fancy
letter hIlt stubborn facts which / am
glad to make known"

COULD USE THE ROAD.
Irish Soldiers Great Idea When Cover
Was Badly Needed.

The following colloquy is said to
have actually occurred during one of
the earlier 5attles in the Philippines:
detachment of American infantry,
under orders to support a section of
Capt. Reilly's battery, were halted for
quite a while on perfectly fiat mill
tary road in full view and fine range
of the Filipino trenches. Of course, to
lie fiat on the road was the only avail
able use of cover"
In this detachment was an Irishman
who had served his time with the col
ors in the British army before he en-
listed with Uncle Sam. AS a recruit
he had been very prone to tell how the
British soldiers did everything. AS a
result he was necessarily piled with
questions as to his experiences. While
the bullets were 'plopping" down the
road and kicking up the gravel, a
young Yankee suddenly asked:
Say Mike, what do the British sol
diers do with their heads in a place
like this?"
Quick as flash came the retort:
"A British soldier has no head,
sorr!"
After a full two-minute pause, Mike
continued:
However, be that as it may, 1 wish
l could pick up this d road and
stan it on edge feminist mel"

His Word Not Good.

John and Jim agreed to settle a
difference by fighting it out. 1t was
understood that whoever wanted to
quit should cry thought" John got
Jim down and was hammering him
soundly, when Jim cried nough!"
But John paid no attention to his cry
and kept on pounding him. Again and
again Jim called out nough! But
John paid no heed and kept busy with
his fists. A boy standing near asked:
why don't you let the feller up?
He's yelled "'nough!"
"But he's such a liar you can't be-
lieve him"

Missed His Vocation.

Reginald de Koven, the composer,
tells of a grocer and druggist who at
tended a Wagner concert. AS the pro-
gram did not please them they began
talking on music in general and on
Wagner in particular.
Another example of the fact that
every man wants to do something
out of his line" said the druggist.
That's all right. assented the gro.
Ger. Now, I'm a. grocer, but I've al
ways wanted to be a banker"
You'd probably fall added the
druggi :. Look at me. Tn success
as a druggist, yet I've always wanted
to write a book. This man Wagner
tries his hand at music. Just listen
to it. And yet we all know he builds
good parlor cars!"-Success.

Foraker Endorsed.

Columbus, Ohio-United States
Senator ]. D. Foraker of Ohio was en-.
dorsed for reelection to the Senate
and for the Republican nomination
for President at joint meeting of the
executive and advisory committees of
the Ohio League Of Republican Clubs
here. The committees also declare
that they have no sympathy what
ever with the proposition that has
been advanced that Senator Foraker
be eliminated and retired from public
life because he was not able to agree
with the President as to the rate bill,
or joint statehood for New Mexico and
Arizona, or the Brownsville matter"

Distinction and pifferenoe.

In Dean Ramsays book of anecdotes
there is one which refers to a CONVEX
sation between a Scotch minister and
a sexton. The minister was stranger
to the gravemaker, and discussed with
him the doctrines of the neighboring
clergy. AS one after another was men,
toned the sexton wagged his head
gloomily, and said: He's no sound"
At last the minister-who was a long
winded and rather empty preacher
mentioned his own name, and in
quired: Mr.. - now, isn't he
sound?" 100, aye" said the sexton,
with a twinkle in his eye. He's a.
sound"

Couldn't DISCHARGE Him.

When the jury had filed in for at
least the fourth time, with no sign of
coming to an agreement in the bribery
case, the disguised judge rose up and
said: Il discharge this jury"
At this, one sensitive talesman,
stung to the quick by this abrupt and
ill-sounding decision, obstinately faced
the judge.
you can't discharge me, judgel" he
retorted.
"Why not?" asked the astonished
judge.
Because" announced the talesman,
pointing to the defendants lawyer,
I'm being paid by that man there!"-
