A SMALL SECRET
Couldn't Understand the Taste of His
 Customers.

Two men were discussing the vari- ous food products now being supplied in such variety and abundance.
 One. a grocer. said, T frequently try a package or so of any certain article before offering it to my trade, and In that way sometimes form different idea than my customers have:
 For instance, I thought l would trv some Postum Food Coffee, to see what reason there was for such a call for if At breakfast I didn't like 1t, and sun per proved the same. so naturally con cluded that my taste was different from that of the customers who bought if right along.
 "A day or two after, I waited on a lady who was buying a 25c package and told her I couldn't understand how one could fancy the taste of Postum.
 "I know just what is the matter she said. you put the coffee boiler on the stove for just fifteen minutes, and ten minutes of that time 1t slmmered. and perhaps five minutes it boiled. now if you will have 1t left to boil full fif- teen minutes after 1t commences to boil. you will find a delicious Java-Iike beverage. rich in food value of gluten and phosphates. so choice that you will never abandon 1t. particularly when you sec the great gain in health Well, took another trial and sure enough, I joined the Postum army for good and life seems worth living since I have gotten rid of my old time stom- ach and kidney troubles"
 Postum Is no sort of medicine. but pure liquid food, and this. together with q relief firm coffee worked the change. There's Reason"

hacks, and yet they stand here trying to tell you it's against Gods law to run freight trains. which are for the sood of all the people to run them on sunday"
 Mir. Jenkins of Baldwin gained the floor. MT. John wanted 1t, but Mir. Jen- kins could not see 1t that way and of Dallas had left the hall after an argument with the Speaker as to his right to the floor.
 MT. Jenkins said. among other things. that If this kind of Legislation was allowed to continue, it would ruin Baldwin County. A measure like this must be settled on It's merits. He did not favor cutting on his nose to spite his face, yet to pass a law of this kind was doing just that.
 You might as we'll say the Ala bama River shall stop running as to attempt to stop the commerce of ehis great State from going on during one day of the week." he said.
 "Righteous Overmuch People,"
 MT. Pitts of Dallas, who had re- turned gained the floor. He saii 1t was marvellous how history repeats itself. and these righteous overmich people come forward with just such propositions as we have here.
 If 1t be a sin for the railroads to run, why is 1t not sin for the coke ovens in Birmingham to run? Are we to pass a law that will stifie trade. a law that will pluck us from the high position we are striving for and take us down into e low estate?
 ''rhe gentlemen tells us that New Jersey Is SO prosperous. with a simi- lar law. Yes. they are prosperous from the great corporations of which we have heard so much of late. They tell us Ohio stops freight on Sunday. They do. but they have their great doublo tracks rolling everywhere ehrough the State. trust the nem- bers of this House will not be carried away by such statements and argu ments, but will vote against bull which will throttle the State."
 Mr. Dove of Madison said he would vote for the bill.
 Mfr. sMcCrory of Conecuh read a pe- tition from the truck growers of llis county calling on him to have tho bill stopping freight trains on Sunday de- feated. The petitions go on to ray that they are satisfied the railroads could not possibly handle the freight from that section if they were stop ped on one day in the week. Mir. Mo- Crory said he would have to vote against the bill.
 Time bill was tabled hy a vote of 46 to 40.
