drove up. From it alighted a woman
in a trig gown. She Haunted in the

ran the conversation: 'I Just re-
ceived a letter from Julia, who is
now in Paris. She said for me to

Two women were discussing the
correct style in combs. To settle
their dispute they telephoned Weav-
er-Jackson's. Thus came the reply:
THE handcarved takes precedence
over all the rest. But a beautiful
rhinestone comb is always good
taste" The women were satisfied,
for one had said hand carved while
the other stood for rhinestone.

The term zen joyed" is used advisedly. for if f-close attention, frequent applause and an encore are to be taken as expressions of appreciation, they certainly "en- jOyed" his talk.
 At the afternoon service pr. Dixon spoke on The Ethics of Prayer" He took for his text II. Kings, 2:14- Where Is the God of Elijah?" The God of Elijah answered prayer, met every emergency. accomplished the impossible and graciously withheld the prayer of despair and unbelief that he might give the prophet better an swer and a triumphal entry into heaven. Will our God prove Himself the God of Elijah? He is a king. and kings hear and answer the petitions of their subjects. He is a judge, and judges hear and regard the plea of the plaintiff.

HIT THE SPOT Postum Knocked Out Coffee AiIs

There's a good deal of satisfaction and comfort in hitting upon the right thing to rid one of the varied and constant ailments caused by coffee drinking.
 Ever since I can remember" writes an Ind. woman, my father has been a lover of his coffee, but the con- tinued use of it so affected his stom- ach that he could scarcely eat at times.
 Mother had coffee headache and dizziness, and if I drank coffee for and usually go to bed with a head ache.
 "One day father brought home a pkg. of Postum recommended by our grocer Mother made it according to directions on the box and it just Init the spot" It has a dark seal brown color changing to golden brown when cream is added, and a snappy taste similar to mild, highgrade coffee, and we found that it's continued use speedily put an end to all our coffee ills.
 That was at least ten years ago and Postum has. from that day to this, been standing order of fath CTS grocery bill.
 When I married, my husband was a great coffee drinker, altho he ad- mitted that it hurt him. When mentioned Postum he said he did not like the taste of it. I told him could make it taste all right He smiled and said, try it. The result was a success, he wont have anything but Postum.' There's a Reason"

of God. ought to be easy. for the proofs are abundant: but to deny that it is the Word of God while we admit that good men wrote it is a mOnstrous ab- surdity. and to claim that bad men wrote such a book is equally absurd
 But. says the rationalistic unbe- liever, God has given to man a reason as guide Yes, but does reason guide men alright? Look at those mon- strous idols in pagan countries. Are they images of the true God to whom men without the Bible have been led by their reason2 Are they not, on the other hand, reflections of the deprav- ity of human nature into which man has sunk by the aid of his reason, which fell with his other faculties when he sinned?
 The anti Christ unbeliever who re- jects the deity of Jesus must believe, if he reads the Bible. that He claimed to be divine, for He said. Before Abra ham was I ann He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father and Q Father. glorify Thou Me with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was Nov, all such un- believers admit that Jesus was a good man. They praise Him for His stain less character. As an unbeliever he must, too. believe that a good man can claim to be what he is not, that a good man can at the same time be an hypocritical deceiver. Jesus Christ was either what He claimed to be, the divine Son of God, or He was a wicked deceiver There is no middle ground. To believe that He was good is to believe that He was God, un- less we do violence to our reason by believing the absurd proposition that a good man can make a false claim"
 There will be a childrens meeting at the Ellzs' theater this afternoon at 3 o'clock. This evening at 7:30 at the same place Dr. Dixon will preach on occult Religions"-a discussion of Theosophy, Spiritualism. and Christian Science. Christian Scientists, Spirit ualists and any other believers in these forms of belief are invited to be present-nOt to be abused or embar- rassed, but to hear the message of a man who has investigated and knows whereof he speaks.

The Social Fair.

If competitive exhibits are no longer
the important feature Of the county
fair it is not a sign that the institu-
ton is on the retrograde. Times have
changed. People in the country work
harder and are more intent upon i'm
mediate home affairs than in the past,
Change of activities and faces is a ne
cessity. Rest for them is in a crowd
and the sight of unaccustomed things
IT they cannot go to the city, then they
ask to have the things city people see
brought to them to take in along with
friends and neighbours
This demand for out and out new
ness and novelty brings the show and
the nonaGricultural exhibits to the
county fair. Socially the gathering
partakes of the nature Of old home
comings. Interest and pleasure may
combine so as to draw the young who
want to go everywhere and the aged
who go but seldom on one stage to
swap experiences and tales of old
times. Following this tendency. the
county fair can become an uplifting
agency for all that falls within the
range of country life

Reaction In the Kitchen.

Reaction In the Kitchen.
Some reactionary individual rises to
remark with eloquence and emphasis
In the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot that the
frying pan has been libeled of late
and the appetizing as we'll as whole
some traditions of our daddies have
been brutally mussed in the hysteria
Of dietic reform. Says this holder up
of the car of progress:
A race Of mollycoddles may pine for re-
hnement in culinary methods, but for men
OF strength and endurance the fry's the
thing, and the iron dish swimming with
lard on every hearth is the unfailing sign
OF people with active appetites, stout
stomachs and hearts, solid Drawn, tough
muscles and ready hands. The broil and
the roast come along only when civiliza-
ton grows effete and effeminate
The fry is an institution in the south
and west not to be sneered at with i'm
punity. It nourished the heroism Of the
pioneer. its fumes served notice upon the
lurking savage that his monopoly Of the
forest and prairie was past and gone. it
was the pabulum on which the youth of
Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln
developed the hardy digestive powers
which kept their brains on the level, it
cultivated the cotton fields and kept in
hght1ng trim the soldiery of Dixie, and it
cleared the wilderness of Arkansas and
Michigan and built the tracks of steel
that connect the Atlantic with the Pacific
So long as the frying pan artist
keeps southern bacon and home
smoked ham on the bill Of fare the
sympathies of the nation are with her
as against the food faddists. There
are still loyal New Englanders who
drop their Longfellow or Holmes, not
to mention the ''best seller of the
year, when the cook announces, Ham
and eggs are done"
