WIFE WON
Husband Finally Convinced.

Some men are wise enough to try
new foods and beverages and then gen.
erous enough to give others the bene-
fit of their experience.
A very conservative" Ills. man,
however, let his good wife find out for
herself what a blessing Postum is to
those who. are distressed in d many
ways, by drinking coffee. The wife
writes:

me, was more helpless than /, a coffee
captive. Yet there. were innu1nerable
Notwithstanding from troubled
sleep with feeling of suffocation, at
times dizzy and cut of breath, at

frightened me.
Common sense, reason, and my
better judgment told me that coffee
drinking was the trouble. AT last my
nervous system was so 'disarranged
that my physician ordered no more

l knew it, too. I capitulated. Prior
to this our family had tried Postum,

and sat like one in trance until morn
ing dawned. ..-.
Then calling the others to her, she
instructed them to follow, and set off
at hard walk for the mountains, six
miles distant. Never deviating from
a bee line and seemingly Indifferent
to the country and those following her,
the woman pursued her course up the
foothills and to the edge of sage flat,
where she broke into run. Ten min
utes later she fell exhausted beside
the sleeping missing one. On her ap-
proach a pack of hungry coyotes that
were seated around the child, but too
cowardly to attack her, fled.
Strangely enough, the little girl
had not suffered greatly during her
4S hours in the open and told lucid
story of her wanderings. When
turned back by the herder she had
followed a road which she supposed
led to the camp, but which finally took
her to an abandoned sawmill in the
foothills.
and took off her shoes and stockings
TO wade it. On the other side her
infant fingers were unable to accom-
plish the task of replacing the stock
ings and she left them and her shoes
beside the stream, afterward wander
ing miles in her bare feet.
That evening, says the little girl
she went into the hills, where coyotes
began to follow her. There were lit
tie ones and two big Ones" she said
The big ones probably were wolves
and why they did not attack the little
creature the men of the camp were
unable to explain, as wolves are fan
more courageous than coyotes, and
have been known to attack them in
the same region.

The Ballad of the Park Weeds.

o listen friends, to this wall of
woe; though hail may come or
drifting snow, though the rains
descend or hot winds blow, till
the farmer says I'VE stand no
show" the weeds in the park
never fail to grow.
Though men may come and
men may go, and men may loaf
or men may hoe, and the cash
may ebb or the cash may flow,
and the pile be high or the pile
be low-Dad gum it all, how the
weeds do grow!
Through thick and thin for
thirty years, the taxpayer has
sold his brindle steers and cough
ed up the dough with briny tears,
with sobs and signs and hopes
and fears, the price of a thou
sand good old beers. Gosh ding
it all, if he weren't an ass, he'd
sow that park to some kind of
grass!
