FOOLED THE PREACHER.
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
Was Coffee.

A wise doctor found out coffee was
hulting him, so he quit drinking it.
He was so busy with his practice,
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, a clergy
man, one day at dinner She says:
Doctor found coffee was injuriDg
him and decided to give Postum a
trial, and we have used it now for
four years, with continued benefit In
fact, he is now free from the long
train of ills that follow coffee drink
ing.
ITO show how successful we are
in making Postum properly | will re-
late an incident. At dinner We
gave, Doctor suggested we serve
Postum instead of ordinary coffee.
Doctors brother, Clergyman, sup
posed it was old fashioned coffee and
remarked, as he called for his seq
ond cup: If you do preach against
coffee, see you haven't forgotten how
to make 1t.
This goes to show that well.made--
fully boiled-Postum has much the
flavor and richness of good coffee al
though 1t has an individuality all its
own. A ten days trial will prove that
It has none of the poisonous effect OF
ordinary coffee, but will correct the
troubles caused by coffee. There's q
reason" Name furnished by Postum

In the general plan of this refriger-
ator which is to be six by eight feet
and high enough for man to stand
up in, the ice chamber should be, II at
all possible, placed overhead, and II
there is room as to height, the ice
should be two feet deep over the whole
size of the refrigerator, or as nearly
that depth as possible. The larger the
amount of ice the steadier will be the
temperature, while very little more
will be consumed. Another advan-
tage to the large ice chamber is that
it will not require to be opened so
frequently, since, when once filled, the
ice will last several days. This fac
tor will help to keep steady temper
ature in the refrigerator. For small
refrigerator, such as this, the floor of
the ice chamber may be sloped slight
" in one direction to carry off the
meltage and sheeted with galvanized
iron. This sheeting should be turned
up an inch or two on three sides, and
on the lowest side should connect with
a trough and the trough in turn with

CLEARED HIMSELF OF BLAME.
Explanation Of Politician That Sure
Iy Was Convincing.

A recent incident in Australia is re-
lated as showing how watchful poll
tician must be in this censorious age
Among other accounts Of a deadhead
nature on the books Of the Westralia
railway was one setting forth that
Miss Peacock had been franked over
the lines to the value Of $35, and in
stantly there was wide demands about
1t. People wanted to know why Sir
Alexander Peacock's daughter was
given these privileges. Sir Alexander
himself, former premier Of Victoria,
was very much hurt when he heard
Of the matter, and fastened to assure
the Westralian government firstly,
that II his daughter had appeared in
Westralia, it was entirely without his
sanction; secondly, If she had made
claims upon the Westralia railways
she had done it without his authority;
thirdly, that never during his long pc
litical career had he asked his own
state, let alone any other, to extend
dead-heading privileges to daughter
of his; and, fourthly and finally, he
had no daughter, and never has had
daughter.-Boston Transcript.

between, next lumber, then paper, then
lumber This construction should be
carried out through all the walls up to
the top of the ice chamber and also
the ceiling of the ice chamber and the
floor of the refrigerator. The doors
should be constructed after much the
same pattern.
Another factor that is even more
frequently neglected than insulation is
that of proper circulation of the air
between the ice and cooling cham
Der. Where the air Is allowed to stag
nate, as it usually is, especially in a
small refrigerator, moisture accumu-
lates there in excess, to the damage
and ruin of the products stored. 1t IS
possible to prevent accumulation or
moisture in a refrigerator If the proper
method of construction be followed
The best arrangement, without using
artificial means, such as fan, for in
ducing circulation in the refrigerator,
is as follows: From the ceiling OF the

THE ARTISTIC WALL.
One of Solid Color viii Always Give
Best Effect.

The dearest, daintiest, most artistic
wall is a solid colored wall. 1t fur
nishes a perfect background for all
kinds of pictures, 1t throws them out
in their correct proportions, and does
not detract from their artistic value.
The solid colored wall Is also much
better as background for furniture,
and harmonizes much more artistical-
ly with carpets and rugs than any
other method of wall treatment. The
less breaking up of color on wall
the more artistic it is.
The most successful form of the
solid colored wall Is an alabastined
wall. There is as much difference be
tween tinted walls, as there Is be
tween shoddy and all-wool gowns. The
shoddy gown holds its color for few
days, while the Atwood peeps its color
to the very last thread so also in solid
colored walls, there are shoddy walls
and permanently colored walls which
retain their color down to the very
last particle The ideal wall coating
never rubs off, never fakes nor chips
off and is always ready for a fresh
coat. If there is wallpaper on the
wall, soak it off with warm water,
then go over the plaster after you
have removed the paper with warm
water to remove every trace of paste.
Have the wall thoroughly clean for a
clean wall cannot be built on an I'M
clean foundation. If there are any
particles of foreign matter adhering
to the wall scrape them off with a
putty knife. Then i there are any
discolorations on the wall, size it with
a material made from cheap varnish,
thinned down with benzlne and japan
added for a drier, then cover your
wall with your tinting material
BE sure your man uses tinting ma
teral mixed with cold water. If he
comes to you and asks for warm va
ter, you can make W your mind that
there is glue in the material which he
proposes to put on your wall and yon
can be certain that you are going TO
have shoddy wall, for glue means
shoddy. Glue means that it will hold
its color long enough for the man to
collect his bill and not much longer
Insist on your tinting material being
mixed with clear, cold water Be sure
that your wall is made from pure ma
terials, then you will have perma-
nent, artistic, sanitary wall A wall
that will be thing of beauty and
joy forever"

The way to keep children In school
is to make the school the most valua-
BILE place to them. The school must
be made attractive. We must change
front and recognize that the school
room Is made for the child and not
for the teacher. At present only the
appurtenances Of the teacher are
placed in it and whatever may be
done for the children is done only be-
cause the teachers interest can best
be served by such. The schoolroom
D!ust be made for children, declares
arena. AS the business room is made
attractive and fixed up for customers
and whatever is done for the salespeo-
pie is done only because thereby the
best interests OF customers can be
cared for, so in the schoolroom the
interests of the children must be con-
suited and those things done for chill
dren which will make the schoolroom,
next to the home, the most attractive
place.

If anyone imagines that railroad
expansion in this country has reached
its limit, or that there is any sign Of
a check upon American industrial
growth, he should not summon James
]. Hill as a witness to support his
pessimistic contention Mr.. Hill, one
of the foremost railroad men of the
age, is out with declaration that the
congestion of traffic is so great from
one end of the union to the other
that the only certain way out is to
construct new track on an enormous
scale. He says $4,000, 100000 could
be spent to advantage for this pur'
pose alone. Add to this the cost of
a corresponding equipment, and one
may form some conception of the
public need as seen by this keen and
practiced observer.

lament the indifference of English

A factor very frequently neglected
in building cold storage chamber is
that of insulation In order to secure
good results, it is necessary to build
the walls carefully, according to APP
proved methods, so that it will be pos
sible to keep the refrigerator sufti-
GENTLY cool. For a small one, would
recommend the following plan of wall:
three or four-inch studding, faced in
side and out with two thicknesses of
matched lumber with paper between
each two thicknesses. The studs may
stand 16 inches apart and between
the studs and the inside and outside
sheeting the space may be filled with
mill shavings, which is generally pre-.
ferred to sawdust for insulation. The
wall will then consist of the following
details in order: One thickness of Is
inch matched lumber, some approved
kind of building paper, then another

must be satisfactory. And we need
not be above borrowing practical ideas
from other sources. American Con-

of the roads in that vicinity and what
the English do to keep their famous
highways in trim. For 1904 miles OF
