COFFEE EYES.
1t Acts Slowly But Frequently Pro-
duces Blindness.

The curious effect of slow daily poi
soning and the gradual building in of
disease as result, is shown in num-
bers of cases where the eyes are af-
fected by coffee.
A case in point will illustrate:
A lady in Oswego, Mont, expert.
enced a slow but sure disease settling
upon her eyes in the form of increas-
ing weakness and shooting pains
with wavy. dancing lines of light. so
vivid that nothing else could be seen
for minutes at time.
She says:
This gradual failure of sight
alarmed me and I naturally began a
very earnest quest for the cause.
About this time l was told that cof-
fee poisoning sometimes took that
form, and while l didn't believe that
coffee was the cause of my trouble, l
concluded to quit 1t and see.
Il took up Postum Food Coffee in
spite of the jokes of Husband whose
experience with one cup at a neigh
boris was unsatisfactory. Well, l
made Postum strictly according to d.
rectons. boiling it little longer. be-
cause of our high altitude. The result
was charming. l have now used Pos
tum in place of coffee for about 3
months and my eyes are we'll never
paining me or showing any weakness.
know to certainty that the cause
of the trouble was coffee and the cure
was in quitting it and building up the
nervous system on Postum, for that
was absolutely the only change made
in diet and l took no medicine.
MY nursing baby has been kept in
a perfectly healthy state since l have
used Postum.
"Mr. -, friend, discarded cof-
fee and took on Postum to see If he
could be rid of his dyspepsia and fire.

WANTED THE WORLDS OPINION.
Prisoner Had to Have That, Though
He Went Without luxuries.

A certain prisoner landed in Jail al
most penniless. He was a man who
had figured in number of the towns
shady transactions and his name was
pretty well known. A few days after
his incarceration he wrote to a friend
asking for monthly allowance of ten
dollars to be continued during his
term of Imprisonment. The friend, re-
Numbering past favors. RENTED the
amount each month during a period
that covered two trials and the long
time intervening. One day it occurred
to him to inquire into the manner of
expanding the allowance. He sup
posed it was used to buy occasional
extra meals, few cigars and newspa-
pers. but just as matter of curiosity
he asked for particulars. He found, to
his astonishment. that the prisoner
had never ordered an extra meal and
had not smoked cigar all the time
he had been in Jail.
Then what in thunder" demand
ed the man, have you been doing
with that ten dollars month";"
II subscribed to two press clipping
bureaus" replied the prisoner coolly.
You don't suppose, do you. that l am
going to pass through this. the most
critical time of my life, without find
ing out what everybody has got to say
about ma?"

THE LIVING ROOM.
Il Should at All Times Be a "LIvable"
Room.

What to do with the living room is
a problem that confronts every house
keeper The living room should be
in fact as well as in name a living
room-a livabe room. 1t is the room
In which the most of our time at
home is spent. the hours we have for
leisure. the time we have for play
the place where we entertain our
friends and 1t Is absolutely essential
that the walls and furnishings of the
living room should be harmonious in
color. suitable in texture, and durable
in material
The rich. soft, solid colored walls
are the ideal walls for the living
rooms. They make a better back
ground for pictures, throw the furni-
ture out in better relief. are less dis
cordant with rugs and carpeting, and
indicate a higher degree of taste and
culture than do the colored mon
strosities which We paste on when We
apply wall paper.
Who ever saw roses climbing up
plastered wall growing out of hard
wood floor? Yet, that is what we
suggest to the Imagination when we
paste paper covered with roses on
our walls. They are neither artistic
nor true. Roses are all very beauti-
full, but they were never made to
climb up interior walls and they do
not grow from hardwood flooring.
The set figures of wall paper are also
tiresome and equally disagreeable and
repellant.
The alabastined wall is the only
correct form of tinted or solid col
ored wall. Fortunately it is the only
clean way, and more fortunately it is
the only permanent way; the only
way that does not involve the end
less labor in the future.
In lighting the walls some thought
must be given the color. Light colors
reflect $50 of the light thrown upon
them. Dark colors reflect but 1870.
Lighting bills can be saved by choos-
ing a color which will reflect the
largest degree of light. In north
which reflect light. In south and
west rooms sometimes the light can
be modified by the use OF darker
colors. Dark greens absorb the light;
light yellows reflect 1t; browns mod
ify it, and so on. through the scale
of colors. The color scheme OF
room not only is dependent upon the
color of the carpetings but 1t is also
dependent upon the light of the room.

THE PAINTING SEASON.

Good results In painting at the least
cost depend largely upon the material
chosen. Paint Is simple compound
and the ingredients can be easily test
ed. The solid part or pigment should
be White Lead. The liquid part
should be Linseed Oil. Those best in
formed on painting always buy these
ingredients separately and have their
painter mix them fresh for each job.
Before the mixing the test Is made.
Place pea-sized bit of White Lead
on piece of charcoal or piece Of
wood. Blow the flame against it and
see what 1t will do. If it is pure
White Lead, little drops OF bright, pure
metallic lead will appear, and with pa
thence the White Lead can be COM
pletely reduced to one globule of metal
lie lead. This is because pure White
Lead is made from metallic lead
You may test dozens of other So
called White Leads and not be able
to reduce one of them to lead. If they
will not change wholly to lead but
adulterant is present
ii you should nave your painting
done with such materials, no matter
how cheap they might seem, it would
be costly in the end.

sending on request blowpipe free to
any one about to have painting done,

CURE AT CITY MISSION.
Awful Case Of Scabies-sody Mass
Of Sores from Scratching-Her
Tortures Yield to Cuticura.

"a young woman came to our city
mission in a most awful condition physi-
cally. Our doctor examined her and
told us that she had scabies (the itch),
incipient paresis, rheumatism. ETC.,
brought on from exposure. Her poor
body was mass of sores from scratch
ing and she was not able to retain solid
food. We worked hard over her for seven
weeks but we could see little improve
ment. One day l bought a cake OF
Cuticura Soap and bottle OF Cuti-
cura Resolvent, and we bathed our
patient well and gave her full dose
of the Resolvent. She slept better that
night. and the next day l got box OF
Cuticura Ointment. In five weeks this
young woman was able to look for
position, and she is now strong and well.

PERHAPS A NATURAL MISTAKE.
Physician Had Reason to Think Hs
Had Lost His Patient.

Henry Grimm, who was formerly
one OF the prominent members of the
German-American society, tells story
about German friend of his who
was taken i'll.
For many days the German was
close to death. but after time he
showed improvement in condition.
The doctor told the Germans wife
that her husband might have any
thing to eat that he liked.
The German expressed a desire for
Limburger cheese and the wife, being
a generous woman and pleased at the
improvement, and in order that her
husband might have nibble at any
time he had taste for it. put some
cheese In every room in the house.
1t is easy to imagine the aroma.
The next morning the doctor called
at the house, and as soon as he opened
the door he asked:
When did he die?"-Hartford Post.

In Sweden a gift is made once a

A Boy on CIerqymen.

Bishop Potter, at an ecclesiastical
dinner in New York, read a Coopers-
town schoolboy's essay on Clergy
men" The essay, which created much
amusement, was as follows:
There are 3 kinds of clergymen
bishups. recters and curates. The bish-
ups tell the recters to work and the
curats have to do it, curate is thin
married man, but when he is a recter
he gets fuller and can preach longer
sermons and becums a good man"

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness Of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance. but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
err strength than other makes.
