THE END OF THE WORLD.

Ing always contingency that may
occur again in the history Of the

1t Is interesting to note that in this
connection a Swedish mystic called
Strombcrg has declared that the
world would never know another ice
age. but that II was now running on,
its course to the end. It's existence
he declared would endure as long as
fire burned in the earths bowels

appeal by fire caused by friction. thus
verifying the Biblical prophecy. AS
however the process OF cooling down
entirely will take some billions OF
years the nervous person will note
that there is really no immediate
cause for alarm.

At that time Reid was employed at the
Mary Fletcher hospital and did not re-
turn the following morning until three
o'clock. At the time Of the robbery

pies saw, walking across the lawn. a
man who answered the general descrip-
ton Of Reid, Later. Mrs. Staples visited
the jail, but could not positively identify
Reid as the burglar.
Following this incident, CltS Attorney
Villas had photographs made of Reid
and sent to people in different cities.
where Reid said he was acquainted. From
Detroit Mich. Mr. Villas received reply
to the effect that the original of the
photograph was one James Reynolds. who
had skipped a board bill From New
London came the cheering tlings that
the photograph rcsembled one James
Raymond. The man from New London
stated that Raymond had formerly been
employed by him. Then again from Nit
tineague, Mass, arrived the news that
the person was James REYNOLDS.
When arrested for lOiterinp R.i1 ,,,o,

stated in court that he was sleeping be-
side the road there.

THE BALLAD OF THE CIn.

I sat in my chair at midnight

The voice Of temporal pow'r.

They say there's been an accid mt.
\ man is slaughtered there"
THE crowds are surgins mp ana down,
The cops are not IN sight.
Mangled and torn. a corpse is laid
Under the garish light
rushed out on the boulevard
Where motors ramp end rcur
My hopes ran high of Nowliu- SCOOPS
And squclched my nervous fear.
No surging crowds gave wav before
The amhuance's changing bell
Never a copper hove in sight
With tales Of gore to tell
The peanut man the corner graced
semi-aose Of done.
And wond'ring watched me hurry by
Much Ike an antelope.
! reached the spot where | was told
The man had met his fate;
Alas, alas. No murders there
Have happened up to date.
The drug clerk in sleepy voice
Dispelled my dreams of fame:
Twas but a horse they had to shoot,
A horse gone blind and lame.

"coFFEE DOESN'T HURT ME"
Tales That Are Told.

Il was one Of the kind who wouldn't
believe that coffee was hurting me-"
says ~ Y. woman. You Just couldn't
convince me It's use was connected
with the heart and stomach trouble I
suffered from most of the time.
My trouble finally got so bad /
had to live on milk and toast almost
entirely for three or four years. Still
! loved the coffee and wouldn't believe
1t could do such damage.
What | needed was to quit coffee
and take nourishment in such form as
my stomach could digest.
Il had read much about Postum,
but never thought 1t would fit my case
until one day | decided to quit coffee
and give II trial and make sure about
1t. So | got a package and carefully
followed the directions.
Soon | began TO get better and was
able to eat carefully selected foods
without the aid OF pepsin or other d.
gestants and 1t was not long before I
was really new woman physically.
No" am heailny ana SOUND, can
eat anything and everything that
comes along and know this wonder.
ful change is all due to my having
quit coffee and got the nourishment 1
needed through this delicious Postum.
MY wonder is why everyone don't
give up the old coffee and the troubles
that go with 1t and build themselves up
as | have done, with Postum"
Easy to prove by 10 days trial Of
Postum In place of coffee. The reward
is big.
