WHERE PAT DREW THE LINE
Patient and Long Suffering, But No
Man with a Face Like That Could
Work with Him.

Pat had been at work for thrse days
digging a well, and as the foreman
wanted it finished within the week he
had promised Pat another man to
help him. 1t was getting on for IL
o'clock, and Towser, the foreman's
bulldog, was looking over the edge of
h pit, when Pat said to himself.
"Smoke-o."
He had just filled his pipe, and was
about to light it when he glanced UP
and beheld Towser's handsome fea-
lures.
Slowly removing the pipe from his
mouth, he said: "Be-e-egorra, Owe
worked wild Germans and Hengar-r-
rians, and Olive worked wild Oital-
ians and naygers, but if a man wild q
face like that comes down here to
work besoide me, I gets up"

LIGHT BOOZE
Do You Drink 1t?

A minister's wife had quite a tussle
with coffee and her experience is in.
teresting. She says:
During the two years of my train
ing as a nurse, while on night duty, I
became addicted to coffee drinking. Be-
tween midnight and four in the morn
ing, when the patients were asleep,
there was little to do except make the
rounds, and it was quite natural that
l should want a good, hot cup of cof-
fee about that time. 1t stimulated me
and 1 could keep awake better.
after three or four years of coffee
drinking I became a nervous wreck
and thought that I simply could not
live without my coffee. All this time
I was subject to frequent bilious at
tacks, sometimes so severe as to keep
me in bed for several days.
after being married, Husband
begged me to leave off coffee for he
feared that it had already hurt me
almost beyond repair, so I resolved to
make an effort to release myself from
the hurtful habit.
II began taking Postum, and for a
few days felt the languid, tired feeling
from the lack Of the stimulant, but I
liked the taste of Postum and that
answered for the breakfast beverage
all right.
Finally I began to feel clearer head
ed and had steadier nerves. After q
years use of Postum I now feel like a
new woman-have not had any bilious
attacks since I left off coffee"
