AN OLD NURSE
Persuaded Doctor to Drink postum.

An old faithful nurse and an exper- fenced doctor are a pretty strong com bination in favor of Postum instead of coffee.
 The doctor said:
 T began to drink Postum five years ago on the advice of an old nurse.
 During an unusual busy winter, between coffee, tea and overvork. I became a victim of insomnia. In a month after beginning Postum, in place of coffee. l could eat anything and sleep as soundly as baby.
 Tn three months l have gained twenty pounds in weight. I now use Postum altogether instead of coffee: even at bedtime with a soda cracker or some other tasty biscuit.
 Having a little tendency 10 Diahe- tcs. l use a small quantity of sacche- rine instead of sugar. to sweeten with. l may add that to-day tea pr coffee are never present in our house and very many patients, on mv advice, have adopted Postum as their regular beverage.
 Tn conclusion can assure any one that, as a refreshing. nourishing. and nerve strengthening beverage. there is nothing equal to Postum. ' There's a Reason" Name given b,- PostUm Co. Battle Greek. Mich. R.ad The Road to Melville" in pkga.

THE SONG OF THE WIND.'

(By Charles W. Hummer, New Haven) wandered afar when the moon was
 high, When the stars were bright in the
 bending sky. When the singing of birds was hush
 cd and still. When silence slept with the sleeping
 Till. And my pinon was swift and my spirit As the wide world over 1 rushed
 along For my life was aflame with poetic
 fire, And l swept the chords of my mystic
 Tyre. With a darling hand, and I know my Would shpwreck hopes in a single
 hour. I scattered flowers OCT lonely graves I played like a child with the ocean
 waves Then l hurried away to an isle of
 light. Where oft ] have sung with the sera-
 phim bright. And beside cot. where the moon
 beams fling. Their lengthening shadows ,urled my
 wing Then my song was hushed and my
 heart grew sick, And my throbbing pulses were low and
 quick. And my spirit forgot its might an !
 pride. For a child In the cot at that moment
 died, And no mother was near to soothe it's
 moanS Or wildly listen to it's startling groans: For she toled in the rich mans gilded
 home For bread for her babe when the morn
 should come. Alone ho had died and alone he lay :. In the desolate cot till. the dawn of
 day, Then I heard shriek of such mad de-
 spair. That I dared not finger longer there. And onward I flew and my dlrge like
 song Startled the hills a l rushed along, Till here by thy side I have paused to
 weep For I cannot sing and l cannot sleep.

Apparently the one Earring note
in the jubilant reception the feet
has received on the Pacific coast is
the appearance of the foreign aux

taken this into consideration when
it amended the naval appropriation

So it may be said that if Con

inscrutable wisdom, has seen fit TO

that he is not lord of all he sur
