VANISHED
Coffee Finally Had to Go.

The way some persons cling to cof. fee even after they know it is doing them harm, is a puzzler. But it is an easy matter to give it up for good, when Postum Food Coffee is properly made and used instead.
 A girl writes: Mother had been suffering with nervous headaches for seven weary years, but kept drinking coffee.
 "One day I asked her why she did not give up coffee as cousin of mine had done who had taken to Postum. But Mother was such a slave to coffee she thought it would be terrible to give it up.
 Finally, one day, she made the change to Postum, and quickly her headaches disappeared. One morning while she was drinking Postum so freely and with such relish I asked for taste.
 That started me on Postum and I now drink it more freely than I did coffee, which never comes into our house now.
 HA Sili AliCAd Ol Ou6 udy, saw me drinking Postum and asked if 1t was coffee. I told her it was Postum and gave her some to take home. but forgot to tell her how to make it.
 The next day she said she did not see how l could drink Postum. found she had made it like ordinary coffee. So 1 told her how to make it right and gave her a cupful I made, after boiling it fifteen minutes. She said she never drank any coffee that tasted as good, and now coffee is banished from both our homes" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Michigan. ] Read the little book Tho Road to Melville" in Tkgs.

HonelesS Case.

Evangelist Torrey, who brides him. self upon the number of his converts, met one hardened sinner in Chicago whom he failed to convert. The min- ister had been preaching to a tent full of people He had described the vices of the rich, and had pointed Biblical analogies at their luxuries. One man in the back of the tent had seemed to be much interested. He leaned forward to catch every word. Tor rey, taking the interest to mean approaching conversion, redoubled his efforts. The road to hell is lined with vintage, wine, beautiful women and fine automobiles" he exclaimed. With a sigh as of relief, the man in the back of the tent arose. "Oh, death, where is thy sting?" he said.

OK Team in Northern Wisconsin.

the days of the dense pine forests when feed was plentiful and the eli matic changes were not so sudden as a present, but the present day has it's advantages, though the winters are more severe. Feed for the oxen may be had at any railroad station or of almost any farmer or homeSteader. Oxen require less feed than horses, and here is the first stroke of econ omy, though not large one. They are sure of foot and will haul as large a load as horses. In skidding logs they are said to be much preferable to horses, and, unlike horses, they may be slaughtered and served to the lum- berjacks when they have served their purpose. In some of the northern counties oxen are being employed by the new settlers for the cultivation of the farm. They move along slowly, it is true, but they accomplish the work of clearing the land and bring ing it to a state of cultivation. The only drawback to this new movement is the lack of trainers and drivers. The oxen men of the last generation have or are passing away, and 1t will be difficult to get men who will conde- scend to desert the horse for the OK.

MAY RETURN TO USE OF OXEN.
Lumbermen in Northern Wisconsin
 Believe Them More SerViceable.

Milwaukee.-The determination ct the lumbermen to return to the employment of oxen in the woods of northern Wisconsin and Minnesota will recall the days of the pioneer of 40 and 50 years ago, when horses in the woods were a curiosity or luxury. Horses succeeded oxen for the req son that they make quicker time in hauling over long roads, and for the reason that feed became more plenti- full as the country became settled by homesteaders. It was when feed was impossible to obtain that cattle were employed, for they were generally able to forage with the deer through sum- mer and winter months. Those were

Republican Candidate for Renomina-
ton as Register of Deeds Ramsey
Mr. Fitzgerald is no stranger to the
voters and taxpayers of Ramsey Coun-
ty. He is a candidate at the earnest
solicitation Of attorneys, real estate
men and the many who have business
with him. He is efficient, straightfor-
ward, honorable, upright and his in
telligent management of the office
makes it one of the best conducted in
the State.
It was during Mr.. Fitzgerald's in
cumbency that the Torrens system
of transferring real property was au-
thorized by the legislature in the coun-
ties of Ramsey, Hennepin and St.
Louis: Since the passage of that law
which constitutes the register of deeds
of Ramsey county, the register of
titles, Mr.. Fitzgerald has devoted a
great deal of time and study to the
adaptation of the system to this county.
He has labored necessarily upon the
system, preparing forms, arranging de-
tails, and attending to the thousand
and one things necessary to facilitate
and perfect the operation of the new
law This in itself has involved much
time and labor. but Mr.. Fitzgerald
feels that his efforts have been amply
rewarded by the results.
Aside from all considerations of poll
tics, NJ w. Fitzgerald deserves the
support of the electorate. He has prov
ed his worth by his daily work, and
there is no excuse that can be justly
advanced in favor of a change.

where be better rewarded than in the
reelection of NJ. w. Fitzerald..
AS the Afro-Americans in large num-
bers are acquiring property it behooves
them to take an interest in the matter
of the titles to the same. Then too Mr..
Fitzgerald has shown something Of his
spirit Of fairness to all classes by CIV
ing employment at times to several
Afro. Americans in his Office.
