A Woman's DUTY,

The woman of taste keeps abreast
Of the fashions in way-that is, she
drops wornout styles and adopts what
ever new ones she can adapt to her
use. If she can afford it she patron
ICES first-class dressmakers and gets
her moneys worth by wearing her
clothes two or three seasons without
losing her prestige as well-dressed
woman. There is an advantage in
this method. as you can see, and
have been told by women who use
1t that there is economy as we'll
1t is no economy to save at the ex.
pense Of good looks. 1t is a womans
duty to look her best, a duty she owes
to her family If she can secure 1t
by a small expenditure, so much the
better, but to save by accepting shah
biness is not creditable save in dire
stress Of circumstances. Poverty is
an excuse for shabbiness and nothing
else is accepted by the world, save in
the rare cases of shabby millionaires.

DROPPED COFFEE
Doctor Gains 20 Pounds on Postum

A physician of Wash, D. c., says Of
his coffee experience:
For years suffered with periodical
headaches which grew more frequent
until they became almost constant. So
severe were they that sometimes | was
almost frantic. l was sallow, consti.
pated, irritable, sleepless; my mem.
ory was poor, l trembled and my
thoughts were often confused.
MY wife, in her wisdom, believed
coffee was responsible for these ills
and urged me to drop it. l tried many
times to do SO, but was its slave.
Finally Wife bought a package of
Postum. and persuaded me to try It, but
she made 1t same as ordinary coffee
and l was disgusted with the taste.
Il make this emphatic because fear

Il do not hesitate to give Postum
due credit. OF course dropping coffee
was the main thing. but had dropped
1t before, using chocolate, cocoa and
other things to no purpose.
Postum not only seemed to act as
an invigorant, but as an article of
nourishment, giving me the needed
phosphates and albumens. This is M

and shook his head.
You don't belong here he said,
pointing to the exit
But l am sure | belong here said
the man.
"'Wait minute. said St. Peter.
