Wife Made the Suggestion.

A grocer has excellent opportunity
to know the effects of special foods
on his customers. A Cleveland
grocer has a long list of customers
that have been helped in health by
leaving off coffee and using Postum
Food Coffee.
He says, regarding his own expe-
rience: 1.-TWO years ago I had been
drinking coffee, and must say that I
was almost wrecked in my nerves.
Particularly in the morning l was
so irritable and upset that I could
hardly wait until the coffee was
served, and then had no appetite for
breakfast, and did not feel like at
tending to my store duties.
"One day my wife suggested that
inasmuch as / was selling so much
Postum there must be some merit in
it and suggested that we try it. 1
took home a package and she pre-
pared it according to directions. The
result was very happy one. My

we will soon get the gag on his
mouth, and learn a good deal more
about this ugly business. Under old
Jibs searchlight he's got to keep a
close lip; but take him out to sea, and
answer for it he won't be so reticent."
A dead silence fell upon the court
when Facey drew his case to a close
and resumed his seat. Nothing could
be heard but the scratching Of Pick
thorn's pen and the reverbrating
growl of the blow-hole as it fretted
and fumed within for the screaming
blast which was soon to follow. Case
ment rammed his hands deeper into
his pockets, gnawed his tawny mus
tache, and protruded his chin. At last,
with a start, he awoke from his
reverie, and barked out:
''Mr. Sennett, as the youngest mem
Der, it is for you to speak first"

nett

on Roche.

captain after another pause, lis that
the prisoner Billy is guilty of the muir

day of September, 1888, and is con-

looking up from his writing as the
others rose to their feet. What am
I to call the case-the Queen versus
Billy what?"

savagely. Call him William Pick.
thorn If you think it sounds better"
The verdict of the court was ex-
planned to Jibberik, and the old rogue
and his pair of friends were landed
in the cove, the boat returning to find
the ship with anchor weighed and the
loosened sails Tapping on the yards.
In few minutes she was steaming
out to sea, and every one grew conf
dent that Billy's tongue would soon
wag as he saw Sunflower bay dwindle
behind him. But the logged savage
