livery From Siberia.

Siberia furnishes large quantity
of ivory but the production of it
belongs to another age and to a
species of animal that does not now
exist. The ivory is cut from the
tusk of mastodons whose skeletons
are found frozen in masses of ice
or buried in the mud of Siberian
rivers and swamps.. The northern
portion of the country abounds IN
extensive boys. In these are found
the tusks of the mastOdOn. These
animals lost their lives by ventur-
ing upon a surface that will not
bear their weight.
In the museum at TObOlsk are
numerous specimens of mammoth.
When an ice pack breaks down a
river bank or floods tear up a fro
2 n marsh or the summer thaw pen
etrates a little more deeply, some
of these antediluvian monsters are
very likely to be exposed.
In many cases the remains are so
well preserved with their dark
shaggy hair and underwood of red
dish brown, their tufted ears and
long, curved tusks, that all the
aboriginese and even some of the
Russian settlers persist in the belief
that they are specimens of animals
which still live, burrowing under
ground like moles, and which die
the instant they are admitted to
the light.

to Postum Is we'll worth recording.

an hour at a time. The spells caught

day.
my friends, and even the doctor
told me it was drinking coffee that
caused the trouble. l would not be-
lieve it, and still drank coffee until I
could not leave ny room.
Then my doctor, who drinks Pos
tum himself. persuaded me to stop
coffee and try Postum. After much
hesitation concluded to try it. That
was eight months ago. Since then |
have had but few of those spells
