A SMALL SECRET.


Two men were discussing the var
ious food products now being supplied
In such variety and abundance.
One, a grocer, said, Il frequently try
a package or so of any certain article
before offering 1t to my trade, and In
that way sometimes form a different
idea than my customers have.
For instance, I thought I would try
some Postum Food Coffee, to see what
reason there was for such a call for it.
At breakfast / didn't like it and supper
proved the same, so I naturally con-
cluded that my taste was different
from that of the customers who bought
It right along.
"A day or two after, I waited on a
lady who was buying a Csc package
and told her / couldn't understand how
n could fancy the taste Of Postum.
ct 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 simmered,
and perhaps five minutes it boiled;
now if you will have it left to boil full
fifteen minutes after it commences to
boil, you will find a delicious Java-like
beverage, rich In food value OF gluten
and phosphates, sc choice that you
will never abandon it, particularly
when you e the great gain in health
Well, / took another trial and sure
enough / joined the Postum army for
good. and life seems worth living since
I have gotten rid Of my old time stom-
ach and kidney ttoublss."
Postum is no sort OF medicine, but
pure liquid food, and this. together
with a relief from coffee worked the
change. There's a Reason"

into day and day afforded no time
for any thoughtful pursuit. What
did the "quieter sort" do under these
circumstances?
They united to form a small and
friendly association whose meetings
we're held in private parlors. Re-
freshments were limited to tea and
it's corcomitants or simple ices and
cake. A presiding officer, a small
committee charged With providing en-
tertainments, a treasurer appointed
to receive and care for the very
moderate fees intended to cover the
expenses of correspondence and an
nouncement-these sufficed for a
quarter of a century to keep the club
in running order.
The entertainments offered to this
assemblage were sufficiently varied
in character. Men of science kindly
lent themselves to the object held in
view and instructive talks on MANY
questions of natural history were
given and enjoyed. Under this head
mention might be made of a botan-
ical picnic, at which an expert in
that line of study led an adventurous
party into depths of cliff and valley.

times brought lighter faculties into

ture some rare delights were afford

famous poem which gave him his

lightened us on themes of early
American history. Col. It. w. Hig-
ginson unearthed fer US the veritable
diary of a Newport belle of 100 years
ago. Memorable was a lecture on
Aristotle, given by the late Prof.
Davidson. The interest of this was
so great as to lead to more than one
especial gathering for the discussion
of the various directions in which
this greatest of those who know
led the intellectual advance of the
world.

a good ringing laugh" The obvious
