BAD DREAMS
Caused by Coffee.

Finally, after hearing the expert
ence Of numbers of friends who had
quit coffee and were drinking Postum,
and learning Of the great benefits they
had derived, / concluded coffee must
be the cause Of my trouble, SO 1 got
some Postum and had 1t made strictly
according to directions.
Il was astonished at the favour and
taste. 1t entirely took the place Of cof-
fee. and to my very great satisfaction.
I began to sleep peacefully and sweet
ly. My nerves improved, and wish
I could wean every man. woman and
child from the unwholesome drug-or-
dinary coffee.
People really do not appreciate or
realize what powerful drug 1t is and
what terrible effect It has on the hu-
man system. II they did. hardly q
pound Of 1t would be sold. I would
never think Of going back to coffee
again. would almost as soon think
Of putting my hand In . fire after
had once been burned.

Only A Poor Woman.

\ Perhaps it's unreasonable to make
the comparison; but when one thinks
of the poor woman who couldn't get
any protection from the tariff law
and must darn the stockings of her
half-clad children and redarn'5 them
again and again, while the distiller
who is making poison for her yhus-
band has protection of sos per cent
ones blood is apt to boil bit. But
it's unreasonable. She's only poor
woman.
The Brewers "Hish Tower"
THE percentage in the case Of
brewer is easily worked out.. His bar
rel of beer, ready for sale, has been
assumed to cost him 50, internal rev.
enue included. At a port of entry
it stands beside barrel Of foreign
beer, bottled, as most foreign beers
are. The cost of each may be. assume
to be the same, though the advan-
tage is probably upon the side Of
the American brewer. He pays the
government one dollar of tax, and
the importer who would put his for
eign beer in competition pays the
government $13.95 in tariff. S,rbtracs
ing one dollar from 1895 we have
$12.95, the amount of protection, or
a ,295 PERCENT PROTECTION,sT sTrul.
the new law is high towsry, OF de-
fense for the beer baron. $}ff}s&
Again, when one thinks of the poor
woman darning her children's stock
ings and the brewer buying silks and
furs for his wife, with profession
of 1926 percent on the beer that he
has made for the poor, drunken hus-
band, one is likely to feel al trifle
vexed.
It's Up to Mr.. TAFT
"The moral American people can
hardly be blamed if they put these
questions up to Mr.. Taft--if they say
to him:
"Mr. Taft. If you believe that it
is right to tax the liquor traffic, why
did you not insist that some more
of the burden of government he put
upon that business, that the neces-
sites of life may be cheaper for the
common people?
"Mr. Taft, knowing. as you do
know, that the liquor interests are
already powerful and defiant and re-
|.gardless of the public welfare, why
did you keep silent while Congress
'lentrenched them more firmly than
ever behind the tariff law?
| "Mr. Taft, were these additional
items of protection given to the Ii
quor interests in view of their gener.
ous contributions to your campaign
fund, or were they not?
/ "Mr. Taft, why is it that in the
ears of governmental Washington the
voice of the liquor interests is more
. influential than all the voices Of the
home?

And the birds come home to sing;
The breath of the fallen rose returns
On the wind of the swallows wing
But the harps know of the long ago
Lie mute in the soul of spring.

Coquelin's Face.
From T. P.'s Weekly.

FROM l. +. b Neehiy
When first you looked at him you
thought him as unimpressive q figure
as you could imagine. He was very
short, he was very stout, he was what
we should call in England Of q podgy
figure The nearest resemblance to him
known in English contemporary figures
is that of Lord Halsbury-a brilliant
lawyer and a formidable politician, but,
like Coquelin, short, stout and podgy in
figure But a second look at the face
gave you an idea Of what the man could
be when he trod the boards. There was
first that impression Of extraordinary mo-
bility to which 1 have already alluded.
Most men who have the gift of speech
whether of their own, or as the orator
of others, like the actor-have large
mouths. Perhaps that is the reason
why the Latins spoke of an actor as
talking ore rotundo-with the round
mouth. The lips were large and long,
but yet they were very finely carved.
so that you never got the idea that the
mouth, though large. was not fine. 1t
had certain tremulousness which show
ed that at times the actor could be beau
tifully and tenderly pathetic. The whole
face was nat and rather rugged, and
there was no more color in it that If
to use the same phrase again|t was
made Of india rubber. 1t had that GU
rious sooty yellow color which was partly
natural in the swarthy race to which
Coquelin belonged, and was partly, per-
haps. the product Of that eternal making
up of his face to which the actor, as we'll
as the actress, has to submit

KEEPING WATCH ON CASTRO
WILL BE ARRESTED IF he RE-
TURNS TO VENEZUELA.
Reports of Former Presidents In
tention Arouse Interest of Gov
ernment officials at Caracas.

CARACAS, Venezuela, Monday. March
1. via Willemstad, Curacao. March q
Should Cipriano Castro, former president
of this republic. attempt to return to the
cou ltry he will face the possibility Of ar
rest by the government the moment he
disembarks. because he has been crimi-
nally indicted in the federal court on the
charge Of having conspired to effect the
assassination Of Juan Vicente Gomez, the
present president
In consequence Of this contingency, the
report that Castro purposes to embark at
Bordeaux March % for La Guaira has
been received here with much interest 1t
Is feared that Castros presence in Vene-
zuela would result in dangerous demon
strations against him which the police
and troops would have difficulty in put
ting down. 1t is thought that Castro
may go first to Nicaragua, because of his
strong friendship with President Zelaya
of that republic. The government is
much interested in the former president s
movements. and an effort will be made to
keep track of him by cable.
Castro's entire fortune is In Venezuela,
and it will all be lost to him unless he re-
turns. 1t is generally believed here that
he will now devote his energies to pro-
tecting his interests.

VOTE ON SUBSIDY BILL.
Expected It Will Be Taken Late To-
day and Be Close.

1T is a horse race, and the closest one
you ever saw" This was the statement
today of one Of the House leaders con-
cerned in pushing the fortunes of the
ocean ship subsidy bill. His judgment
was based on thorough canvass of the
friends and opponents of the measure.
The bill will come to vote about 4
o'clock this afternoon.
A majority Of from three to five votes
is expected by the supporters of the bill.
That hope. however, contemplates the
necessity of every friend of the meas
ure being in attendance, and Of no
changes in the intention Of those now
disposed to vote aye. In point Of fact.
the balance of power rests with about
half a dozen members, who are uncertain
at this time how they may vote. The ut
most pressure political and adnrnis-
trative. is being exerted to secure favor
able action on this bill.
The effect Of the bill, II 1T should pass,
upon the shipbuilding industry will be
more sentimental than material, as the
appropriation Is only some $4,000
divided among the Atlantic and Pacific
shipping interests. The point is that
the passage of the bill would be an en-
tering wedge for further legislation for
the upbuilding Of the American merchant
marine and would be accepted as voic-
ing the sentiment of Congress in favor
of it.
The republicans Of the new Congress
to come in were elected upon platform
favoring aid to the shipping industry,
gress the sentiment favorable to helping
the ocean merchant shipping will natur-
ally increase, and would be stimulated
by favorable action at this time.

actual shooting. although he admitted
having been just across the street from
the telephone pole which marked the
scene of the killing.
The sum of Binning's testimony was
that he saw Senator Carmack standing
in the street behind the telephone poles.
He put the senator Just little to the
south of the poles. as the defense has
asserted he was. He saw no pistol in
Senator Carmack's right hand. although
the defendant John D. Sharp. standing
175 feet away. saw the weapon.
He could not tell what was the color
of the weapon which he said he saw
Senator Carmack put on the outside Of
the paper in. the right-hand overcoat
pocket as he went up the 7th avenue hill
toward his death.
Binning said he saw Senator Carmack
in the street with his left hand extended
and resting against one of the telephone
poles-the southern of the two-and in the
next breath he said that he couldn't tell
whether 1t was the senator's hand or
somebody's else.
The state means to begin another prose-
cution for perjury 500, in addition to the
prosecutions which have been begun al
ready growing out of the examination of
talesmen in the case who testified that
they had expressed no opinion as to the
guilt or innocence Of the defendants when,
1t is alleged. they had done SO.

PRESENTED BY Mr.. NELSON
CREDENTIALS
OFFERED TO THE SENATE.
Senator La Toilette Explains Why
He Did Not Act for Colleague.
Laid on Table.

The credentials of the reelection of
Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin. signed
by the Governor OF Wisconsin. were laid
befor the Senate today by Senator Nelson
of Minnesota, and on motion of Senator
Burrows, chairman of the committee on
privileges and elections. were ordered to
be printed and lie on the table.
Senator La Toilette made q statement in
effect that he believed the credentials did
not state all the facts concerning the
proceedings of the Wisconsin legislature
and that the legislature is still meeting
daily, and he added that the full pro-
ceedings would be presented to the Senate
later.
II deem it proper to add he said
that II is claimed that no election has
yet transpired to choose a United States
senator to succeed the junior senator
from Wisconsin,
Mr.. La Toilette said he had offered to
present the credentials presented by Sem
ator Nelson with the statement he had
made. but that appeared not to be salts
factory.
Upon the suggestion Of Mr.. Bailey Mr.
La Toilette said he would produce the ad-
ditional report of proceedings Of the Wis
consin legislature.
The certificate is signed by the gov
ernor and Secretary of State Frear, and
the seal of the state is affixed.
The copy Of the Senate journal shows
that at the session of January 26. 1909.
specific charges were filed relating to the
alleged improper, unlawful and illegal
use Of money by candidate for the NOM
ination to the Office of United States SEN
ator'
The position taken by the supporters
Of Senator Stephenson is that his elec-
ton cannot be denied in view Of the ac-
tion Of the two houses of the assembly
in separate session and the reading Of
the journals in joint session as provided
by statute.

LAUGHS AT THE "UPL1FT.~
House Declares That the Report Is
Worthless

Representative Stanley of Kentucky
took a shot at the Presidents farmers
uplift commission on the floor of the
House this afternoon.
Il am tired roared Mr.. Stanley, "of
having half a dozen high coIlared fellows
riding around in automobiles. eating can
vas-back duck and drinking champagne,
and then going UP in the country and
telling the farmer how to milk his cow.
why, those fellers would not know
kicking cow from a yearling calf, and
could not tell the difference between a
chicken and turkey, and yet they have
the nerve to tell the farmer to raise a
large and useful family for the benefit of
their destitute brothers in the city
Whereupon Mr.. Stanley glared around
the House and sat down.
Chairman Tawney of the appropriations
committee also ridiculed the farmers up
lift commission and opposed the appropri-
alton of $4,000 inserted in the agricul-
tural bill as a Senate amendment He
read from the report of the commission
that SKINNED is the residue of milk at
ter the cream has been SKINNED on"
Representative Mann of Illinois got a
laugh out of the House by rising in his
place and solemnly remarking important
If true?'
After Mr.. Tawney had characterized the
report of the commission as worthless the
agricultural bill was returned to confer
ence and the House insisting on it's dis
agreement with the Senate.
