New Method of Valuation.
one OF the most important q the nhs-
cellaneous provisions Of ,he bill is that
providing for the method OF valuation,
which Mr.. Payne explains as follows:
THE bill adds a new paragraph to SOC
lion II of the customs administrative act.
which provides for the appraisement Of
goods imported by consignment and not by
sale where there is no n srket price at the
place Of origin OF the goods. After re-
nnactins the present provisions to ascer-
tain the value, tho bill adds this para
graph:

New Drawback Provision.

one Of the most significant features Of
the Payne bin is the new drawback pro-
vision. It extends this privilege so that
an American manufactures need not use
the material which he has imported in
order to secure the refund of tho duties
which he has paid on his material. If ne
uses materials produced In this country in
equal amount with the material which he
has imported he will be entitled TO the
drawback benefits provided the domestic
materials are OF equal productive manu-
featuring capacity and value. The legal
deduction Of ] per cent on the drawback
is provided, but the expectation upon
which the manufacturer proposes TO collect
the drawback must be made within three
years OF the Importation OF the foreign
material used or checked against. The
secretary Of the treasury is authorized to
prescribe the regulations under which the
drawback is paid. The privileges of the
drawback section are applied to materials
used In the construction and equipment of
vessels built for a foreign government or
for foreign trade.
Petroleum is retained on the free list
and the countervailing duty provision is
retained.
While coffee is retained on the free
list, It is with the provision that a duty
equal to any export duty, tax or charge
that shall be levied by any country from
which it is imported shall be collected on
the coffee imported from that country.
In order to prevent the confusion which
attended the enforcement of the Dinsley
bill on the day which It became a Jaw
the Payne law is not to take effect until
the day after IT is enacted.

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 one of the southern states says:
MY mother, since her early child
hood, was on inveterate coffee drinker,
had been troubled with her heart for a
number of years and complained of
that weak all over feeling and sick
stomach.
Some time ago was making an off,
cial visit to a distant part of the coun-
try and took dinner with one of the
merchants of the place. noticed a
somewhat peculiar favour of the cof-
fee, and asked him concerning it. He
replied that it was Postum
IT was so pleased with it, that after
the meal was over, I bought package
to carry home with me, and had wife
prepare some for the next meal. The
whole family were so well pleased
with it, that we discontinued coffee
and used Postum entirely.
'T had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mothers con-
dition, but we noticed that after using
Postum for short time, she felt SO
much better than she did prior to it's
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 as well
and hearty as the rest of u.s.
Il know Postum has benefited my
self and the other members of the
family, but not in SO marked a de-
gree as in the case Of my mother, as
she was victim of long standing

Nebogatoff in the Russo-Japanese war,
were pardoned and released from the
fortress of ST. Peter and st. Paul a
month ago. These officers had been
sentenced to death for having sur
rendered their commands, but in view
of extenuating circumstances their
sentences were committed to ten
years Imprisonment, which they be-
gan serving in 1907.
During their stay in the fortress
each prisoner had large, bright, well
warmed room Before their windows
the fortress gardens stretch down to
the Neva, beyond which stands the
winter palace, once the winter home
of that other prisoner who spends
most of his time in Tsarkoe-Selo.
In each room were a field bed, a
large and small table, a few chairs,
wardrobe and washstand. The
windows are covered with iron lat
lice work. At eight o'clock in the
morning the prisoners were served
with tea and their newspapers were
taken in. The sailor takes four news
papers and is a keen follower of pol
tics The soldier scarcely manages
to get through one journal.
At one o'clock luncheon of meat and
soup was served: The meal was not
varied much, but the food was ex-
cellent. After luncheon the prison
srs generally walked in the gardens.
At six dinner was served, a light
meal. At nine tea was served for the
last time.
The prisoners read as late into the
night as they cared to. Twice a week
visitors were admitted. the first day
being confined to their wives. Twice
month the prisoners took a bath in
the fortress bath and on great holt
days they attended service in the
famous fortress cathedral under a
convoy of soldiers.

Clay Center To Have Electric Fount.
A few weeks ago the people of Clay

Huntress park, the city's popular re-
sort, so an entertainment was given
at the park for the purpose of rails
ing money with which to install such
a fountain. Two hundred and twenty
six dollars were cleared from the en-
tertainment and with other funds on
hand, runs the fund up to about $500.
fountain costing about $500 will be
installed, but before that is done an
other entertainment will be given to
secure the whole sum needed. Clay
Center will then have its electric foun-
tain which has been so much desired
by the citizens of the town
