PRESSED HARD
Coffee's Weight on Old Age.

When prominent men realize the in.
furious effects of coffee and the change
in health that Postum can bring, they
are glad to lend their testimony for
the benefit Of others.
A superintendent of public schools in
North Carolina says:
my mother since her early child
hood, was an %inveterate coffee drinker
and had been troubled with her heart
for a number Of years. and COM
planned of that weak all over feeling
and sick stomach.
"Some time ago I was making an Of
fetal visit to a distant part Of the
country and took dinner with m Of
the merchants of the place. I no.
tced a somewhat peculiar flavor of
the coffee, and asked him concerning
it. He replied that it was Postum.
II was SO pleased with it, that after
the meal was over, I bought a pack
age to carry home with me. and had
wife prepare some for the next meal.
The whole family liked it so well, that
we discontinued coffee and used
Postum entirely.
IT had really been at times very anx-
ious concerning my mothers condition,
but we noticed that after using
Postum for a short time, she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use, and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches were not SO frequent, and
her general condition much improved.
This continued until she was az well
and hearty as the rest Of us.
II know Postum has benefited my
self and the other members of the fam
fly, but not in SO marked a degree az
in the case Of my mother, as she was
q victim of long standing"

Speaking of tricks to win the sym

Judge Willard M. McEwen, in a re-
cent address before the Illinois States
Attorneys association, said: II know
of four cases where a baby played a
prominent part in getting the acquit-
tai of the defendant, and I later
learned that the same baby had been
used in each Of the cases, although
the supposed mothers in each case
were different women."-Law Notes.

True Thrift.
when visiting a certain town in the
Midlands," says a medical man, II was
told of an extraordinary incident
wherein the main figure, an econom-
ical housewife, exhibited, under trying
circumstances, a trait quite character
istic of her. 1t seems that she had by
mistake taken a quantity of poison
mercurial, poison-the antidote for
which, as all should know, comprises
the whites of eggs. When this anti
dote was being administered, the order
for which the unfortunate lady had
overheard, she managed to murmur, al
though almost unconscious. MARY,
Mary! Save the yolks for the pud-
dings!"-Tit-Bits.

Engraving.

Engraving in the strictest sense of
the word is 'the art Of scratching
marks or figures upon tablets OF any
hard substance" IN a narrower sense
it is used to designate the cutting Of
designs upon metal plates or blocks OF
wood for the purpose Of printing i'm.
pressions from them upon paper or
some other like substance with ink
The methods Of producing these i'm
pressionS may be by engraving on
wood or on metal The latter method
IS used more extensively today. and
copper is the metal most commonly
used to engrave upon. Steel has hard
ness and greater durability, but It is
less easily engraved upon than cop
per. and the resulting print is likely to
be less free and artistic IN it's lines
Engraving as a means Of reproducing
pictures and illustrations in black and
white attained the height Of it's pop
ularity in the first half of the nine
