ENDED THE BIBLE READING.
Beginner Resented Wife's Enjoyment
Of His Mistake.

A Kansas City man, who had fol-
lowed stock quotations, football scores
and race form sheets more closely
than he had religious and literary mat
ters, recently was persuaded by his
wife to read aloud each evening from
the Old Testament to improve the
knowledge of both on Biblical matters.
The man became interested In the
story of the scriptures and read aloud
several evenings with great gusto and
pleasure. One night as he was swing
ing along he read: And they horse
whipped the beasts"
Hold on!" exclaimed his wife.
"What was that?"
They horsewhipped the beasts" he
repeated, and continued reading. His
wife got up from her sewing. crossed
the room. looked over his shoulder and
read:
They worshiped the beasts
There" she said, Il knew the word
horsewhipped was not IN the Bible.
He. He!"
The man closed the Bible with a
snap. clasped the snap, ard that con-
cluded the readings for all time.

WILL AID MARRIAGE
PACIFIC COAST BACHELORS FORM
AFFINITY CLUB.
Scarcity Of Maids Results in Society
Which Plans to Import Women
Organization to Pay
Wedding Expenses.

Spokane. Wash.-Designed to solve
the problem of the scarcity of mar
riageable young women in the island
empire, the Spokane Affinity club has
been organized in this city by rs bach
elors under 80 years of age.
The society proposes to bring 5000
young women into the Spokane coun-
try from the eastern states, find EN-
ployment for them, and act as general
sponsor. When any of the imported
young women is convinced that she
has found her soul-mate all marriage
expenses will be borne by the club, in
Guiding the license, the minister's fee,
a wedding dinner and flowers.
]. c. Power Brown, secretary of the
Spokane mining brokers' exchange, is
president of the new society. The
secretary and treasurer is Wallace A.
McBurney, vice president and man
ager of the Falls City Lumber COM
pany, and the manager of the society
is Cadwallader Jones. manager of the
United States Steel and Equipment
company.
The membership is drawn from the
best circles of Spokane society. AS
member must have property of value
greater than $1,000, they are all
eligible young men and entirely liable
in case they find their affinity among
the importations. Branches are to be
instituted in every city and town of
more than 500 inhabitants throughout
the inland empire.
Shortly after the organization of the
club President Brown gave out the
following statement:
The purpose of the club is to in
duce young women to come into this
district. There is a scarcity of young
women in the northwest, and the in
land empire is no exception. l am not
overestimating the fact when / say
that 5000 women between the ages of
20 and 80 years could find good hus-
bands and comfortable homes in Spo-
kane alone. This may seem an ex-
travagant statement in a city of nearly
100000 population, but the fact is that
many more men than women have
come into the city during the last is
months.
The first step in the campaign to
bring young women into the country
will be to write to our friends and ac-
quaintances in the old homes in the
middle. western, eastern, southern and
New England states and eastern Can
ada, urging them to come to the north
vest, and then prevail upon them to
write to their girl acquaintances. In
that way a chain system will be es-
tablished and the problem finally
solved.
ANY man between the ages of 20
and 40. industrious and of good char
acter, and possessed Of at least $1,000.
or its equivalent in realty, is eligible
to membership in the club"

MAUD HAS HER BUSY DAY.
Meek-Eyed Mule Slips on Street and
Seeks Revenge with Heels.

San Antonio, Tex.-Maud the mule.
a lop-eared quadruped who earns her
daily alfalfa by hauling a Mexican
peddler's cart, created great excite
ment on West Commerce street the
other day. Maud was a meek-eyed
mule with a look of patient resigna-
ton in her mournful eyes, but she
carried a charge of dynamite in each
hind heel.
While ambling down the street she
slipped on the wet pavement and fell
down, tangled in a maze of homemade
harness. With great presence of mind
she lay quietly until her driver sought
to unravel the harness. Then she
handed him a left foot jolt in the short
ribs that sent him careening into the
gutter.
Johnny Buttinsky." who is present
in every crowd, volunteered to release
Maud from her tolls. He got swift
kick on his hip pocket which placed
him hors de combat, and thereupon
he withdrew to the background.
Finally Maud grew tired of her re-
cumbent position and calmly arose.
Shaking her long ears In a coquet-
tish manner. she meditatively kicked
an innocent bystander into the gutter
and then went to sleep, while the
wounded driver attached the guy ropes
to the cart.

FOUND A WAY
To Be Clear Of tho Coffee Troubles.

Husband and myself both had the
coffee habit and finally his stomach
and kidneys got in such a bad condi-
tion that he was compelled to give up
a good position that he had held for
years. He was too sick to work. His
skin was yellow, and / hardly think
there was an organ in his body that
was not affected.
Il told him / felt sure his sickness
was due to coffee and after some dis
cussion he decided to give 1t up.
TT was a struggle because of the
powerful habit. One day we heard
about Postum and concluded to try 1t,
and then it was easy to leave off
coffee.
His fearful headaches grew less
frequent, his complexion began to
clear. kidneys grew better until at
last he was a new man altogether, as
a result of leaving of coffee and TAX
ing up Postum. Then 1 began to
drink it, too.
Although I was never as bad of
as my husband. 1 was always very
nervous and never at any time very
strong, only weighing 95 lbs. before
1 began to use Postum. Now 1 weigh
lis lbs. and can do as much work as
anyone my size, / think.
MANY do not use Postum because
they have not taken the trouble to
make 1t right. / have successfully
fooled a great many persons who have
drunk 1t at my table. They would
