ROMANTIC DEVONSHIRE
The Lard Made Famous by Phlpotts'
Novels.

PhilpOtts has made us familiar
with romantic Devonshire, in his fas-
cinating novels, The River" Chill
dren of the Mist etc. The charac-
tiers are very human; the people there
drink coffee with the same results as
elsewhere. A writer at Rock House,
Orchard Hill, Bideford, North Devon,
states:
For 80 years I drank coffee for
breakfast and dinner but some 5
years ago found that it was produc-
ing indigestion and heartburn, and
was making me restless at night.
These symptoms were followed by
brain fag and a sluggish mental con-
dition.
When I realized this, l made up
my mind that to quit drinking coffee
and having read of Postum. l con-
cluded to try it. I had it carefully
made, according to directions, and
found to my agreeable surprise at the
end of a week, that l no longer SUI
Tered from either indigestion, heart
burn, or brain fag, and that l could
drink it at night and secure restful
and refreshing sleep.
"Since that time we have entirely
discontinued the use of the old kind
of coffee, growing fonder and f0nder
of Postum as time goes on. My d.
gestive organs certainly do their work
much better now than before, a re-
suit due to Postum Food Coffee, I am
satisfied.
"As a table beverage we find (for
all the members of my family use IT,
that when properly made it is most
refreshing and agreeable, of delicious
favour and aroma. Vigilance is,
however, necessary to secure this, for
unless the servants are watched they
are likely to neglect the thorough
boiling which it must have in order
to extract the goodness from the
cereal." Name given by Postum Co.,

Asthma.

Those who have seen the struggles
of a victim of asthma realize how bad
the trouble is, yet it is very largely
an affection Of the nerves. In many
cases the patient wants to exhale, and
cannot finish before there is spas
modic attempt to inhale. The effort
to breathe out and breathe in meet in
the middle, as it were, with the result
that the patient can do neither, and
simply struggles and gasps. A doc
tor conceived the idea of putting his
hands, one on the back and the other
on the front of the chest and sQueez-
ing the air out to help the inspira-
ton. When the lungs were Debated.
inhalation was easy. After several
mapoeuvers of this sort the patient
expressed relief from the straining
and struggling Cultivator.

ROBBED WHILE HE MADE LOVE.
eerlin Merchant Victimized Through a
Too Agreeable Caller.

Berlin is amused these days over
the eer love adventure of a retired
merchant living on the Muhlenstrasse.
He has a grown up daughter who
keeps house for him, and when she
went on a holiday visit to relatives
in another city she left very large
vacancy in his heart and home.
He was particularly blue on New
Years eve when a knock came to the
door of his apartment and very at
tractive looking young woman asked
for his daughter. He explained that
she was away.
The visitor was disappointed al.
most to tears. She was an old school
friend, she explained, and was visiting
Berlin. One of the things which she
had most looked forward to was the
meeting with her chum.
The father grasped at the chance OF
a little companionship. He asked the
young lady to come in and rest. Then
he made tea for her.
She steered the chat along such
lines that he ventured to ask her to
visit vaudeville theatre with him.
and she accepted. He found her so
good humored and amusing that he
was deeply smitten before he left her
at the door of house where she said
she was stopping.
When he opened the door of his
apartment, on reaching home, chilly
blast struck him in the face. One Of
the windows was wide open. The
shutters showed the marks of a jimmy.
The whole place was topsy turvy.
Pretty nearly everything valuable was
gone, including about 500 that had
been locked in bureau drawer.
1t never occurred to the victim to
connect the robbery with his agree.
able visitor; but the police put the
two occurrences together. BY watch
ing the house where the old man had
left her, they soon discovered her iden.
tity.
She was a young woman. actually an
acquaintance of the absent daughter,
but a resident of Berlin. She had no
police record, but she was known to
associate with a young han, still pu-
pill in a business school, whose habits
were bad.
This youth and still worse associ.
ate were arrested and they confessed
to the robbery. They had wanted
money to celebrate New Years day.
they said, and they had persuaded the
girl to lure the old man, who they
knew kept money in the house, away
from home while they turned the trick.
When the girl was arrested, the
victim offered to refrain from prose-
cutting her if she would marry him.
She replied that she would do so if he
would let the whole three 60 free. This
excited the elderly suitor's jealousy
and he fatty refused. The glrl then
decided to stand trial and go to prison
rather than marry him. The case has
not yet been tried.-New York Sun.

How Old is the Sphinx?-No One
Knows.

The great Sphinx Of Ghizeh bears
no inscription by which We can tell
its date. In 1916 Ceyiglia. who in
modern times was the first to clear
away the sand, found between its
paws a stele of the reign. Of Thothmes
that the Sphinx was carved By that
monarch. But in 1858 the excavation
Of Marietta uncovered STEELE bear
ing the name of Cheops, on which is
a reference to the Sphinx. The IL
scription is evidently of late per
iod but is supposed to be an exact
copy of an ancient carving. and the
translation seemed TO place the
Sphinx earlier than the Pyramids.
and consequently to prove it the most
ancient piece OF work in the world.
Still there remained four lines carved
on the base which could not be read,
but NJ. Daressy has now deciphered
them, and it appears that the inscrip-
ton is in two parts. In the earlier
lines there is no mention of the
Sphinx. but the lines which date from
the Persian occupation mention the
repair of the Sphinx. There is, there
fore, nothing by which We can tell
the date of the monument. and the
only evidence we have is the head
dress of the Colossus. Its hood is
ornamented behind with three bands.
a large one between two smaller
bands Now this is a fashion which
only existed toward the end Of the
twelfth dynasty in the reigns of Usur
tesen H. and Amenemhat III. AS this
family showed much zeal for the god
Harmaklin, whose portrait the Sphinx
is. it is probable that the monument
is the work of Amenemhet III.-Lon-
