"I have been compelled to stop drinking it, I said to a friend who asked me to strengthen up on a cup of her good coffee We'll she said. that needn't bother you, for I have Postum Food Coffee here, which completely cured friend of mine of sick head aches.'
 T tried her coffee and 1t was very good, but when l tried to make 1t at home, 1 was disappointed. soon found that I was not making 1t correctly, but by putting In two heaping teaspoonfuls of Postum for each person and letting it boil twenty minutes. 1t was delicious
 T had at that time been an invalid for several years, but did not know my trouble was caused by coffee drinking. of which I was very fond. I immedi- ately began to feel better after leaving off coffee and using Postum. and stuck to ir.
 One day met a lady who was troubled the same as I was, and whose appearance on the street really shocked me, for she was so emaciated.

sylvania. and the Carolinas. of vir- ginia and Maryland.
 F{om the Pilgrim forefathers. she inherits a singular purity and stead fastness of purpose; from her Scotch ancestors. an unswerving rectitude and devotion to principles; from the Quakers, deep sense of truth and love of justice; from the Cavaliers. high courage and an indomitable spirit; from them all. that love for God and country that Is patriotism in its high est sense.
 Mrs. smith is a member of the Penn sylvania Colonial Danes. an officer of the Alabama Colonial Danes, and last. but best of all. State Regent for Alabama of the Daughters of the American Revolution. During the ten years that she has held Alabamas s State Regency. she has been faithful. tireless. enthusiastic and efficient in the Daughters of the American Revo- lution cause. Any one of these quail ities taken separately would be most commendable; but when they are united, as in Mrs. Smith, they form a combination as rare as admirable--and one that has been of inestimabie value not only to the Alabama Daughters of the American Revolution, but to the national organization. Mrs. Smith is a living illustration of the falsity of that old saying that "a prophet Is not without honor save in his own coun- try" for it is in her own country, her own home, where she is best known, that she is most loved. Her honors have been many because they have been well deserved; but her chief claim to fame and distinction is the high place she occupied In the hearts of her Alabama Daughters" than whom there are none more loyal. The ad- miration, affection and unquestionable allegiance that they ungrudgingly yield her. Is glory to her and an honor to them.
 Madam President General and Mem bers of this Congress, I have the great privilege of placing in nomination Mrs. Morgan Smith for Vice. President Gen. eral from Alabama. (Applause).
 Mrs. illiamson--Madam President General. Mississippi Is delighted to second the nomination of Mrs. J. Nor gan Smith for ce-President General, and asks all of the sister Southern States to second her nomination.
 Miss Mecum--New Jersey seconds the nomination of Mrs. J. Morgan Smith.
 Miss Benning--Georgia begs to sec- ond the nomination of Mrs. J. Nor gan Smith, as Alabama Is the daugh ter of Georgia.
 When announcement was made of Presidents General, Mrs. J. Morgan Smith led with 580 votes. The vote cast for Mrs. Mclean as President General was 511. t

cratic party in the nation. the same game as he did on>the State organiza- tion last fall, and by such means bring about his nomination for the Presiden- ey. The scheme involves his entering the field, first, as the nominee of the Independence League. which has be- come a national organization, then to use the third party as a club to force the Democrats into line. This is the danger of the pour. so far as the party Is concerned s/
 There is no doubt that Hearst is after the presidency. Any denial of this would be entitled to little weight. There has been no expression of opin- ion on tho subject so far from Mir. Hearst but those who have been watching his career closely believe that within the next few months he will in- augurate a campaign for the presidency even more aggressive in nature than that of 1904.
 Politicians here are interested iD Knowing what the friends of Mir. Bryai are going to do about it. Thus fal they have been inclined to repeat the mistakes of the conservatives last fall refusing to take Hearst seriously. Bul they may be obliged to and that very shortly, goes without saying. There iS no doubt that Hearst has the most un. friendly feeling toward Bryan. He<does not believe that the sNeDraskan treated him right at the last National Conven- ton. Mir, Hearst urges that he sup ported Bryan Loyalty in 1896. when ev- cry Democratic paper of consequence in the East bolted, that he paid the ex- penses of his foreign journey. and that fin return the standing candidate should have used his influence at the National Convention of 1904 to bring about his, IIearst's, nomination, and not thrown his strength away on Senator Cocker i'll Many of the supporters of Mir Bryr an here think that the entry of Hearst into the race will do their candidate great deal of good. that when the con- servatives of the South and East come to a realiza ton that only radical can be named to head the ticket and they must choose between the Nebraskan and the New Yorker. they will not he's itate to declare for Bryan
 But there are far-seeing Democratic leaders here who have not yet given up the ship They believe that with the Bryan and Hearst wings quarreling among themselves. Enlightenment and Responsibility ought to have a splen- did opportunity through an independent movement inside of the party to retire both from the field and nominate really a strong and decent ticket They con- tinue to count upon the South to start the ball a-rolling Their idea Is that 1t ought to rise to It's full height In the present crisis.
