1T WORKS
The Laborer Eats Food That Would
Wreck an Office Man.

Men who are actively engaged at
hard work can sometimes eat food
that would wreck a man who is more
closely confined.
This is illustrated in the following
story:
Il was for IL years clerk in a store
working actively and drank coffee all
the time without. much trouble until
after | entered the telegraph service. =
There | got very little exercise
and drinking strong coffee, my nerves
grew unsteady and my stomach got
weak and was soon a very sick man.
l quit meat and tobacco, and, in fact,
| stopped eating everything which I
thought might affect me except coffee,
but still my condition grew worse and
was all but wreck.
Il finally quit coffee and COM
menced to use Postum a few years
ago, and | am speaking the truth
when | say my condition commenced
to improve Immediately, and to-day I
am well and can eat anything | want
without any bad effects, all due to
shifting from coffee to Postum.
Il told my wife to-day | believed I
could digest brick if had a cup Of
Postum to go with it.
We make it according to direc-
tions, boiling it full 20 minutes, and
use good rich cream. and it is certain
ly delicious"

Sweater Coats.

The automobile is where the new
long sweater coats, or coat sweaters,
are best appreciated. They are light
to carry or wear, take up no room,
and are most acceptable If suddenly
changed plans find one considerable
distance from home in the late even
ing. And there is wicked delight in
being perfectly comfortable as one

OF course, accidents can happen

SCHOOLMA'AMS WANT MUCH.

Women school teachers in Missouri
promise to be thorns in the side OF
the Legislature. If exhaustive de-

be no time for legislation on other

teachers have nothing to learn from
their sisters in the profession in this
city, who in their protracted fight for
equal pay have shown a determine
alton and tenacity seldom developed
by mere man. These are a few OF
the demands which the women
teachers have presented to the Mis-

CHEERING NEWS
FROM THE FRONT

New Orleans. November 4-After a lapse
of several days the local Central America
colony was again rewarded this after
noon with news from the front. From
Bluefields and the Atlantic coast ports OF
Nicaragua came reassuring advices to the
sympathizers OF General Estrada, leader
Of the revolutionists, saying that "The
Liberator" was daily gaining strength in
men, arms and ammunition and that Pres
ident Zelaya Is making no move to regain
the territory taken by the revoiutionists.
From Managua, the capital, and from
Pacific coast points came still more glor-
ious news to the local friends Of the adj
ministration. President Zelaya himself
cables that there had been a decisive en-
gagement near Ell Chile and that the enc
my had been defeated. He gave few de-
tails, but said that it was a glorious VIC
tory.
President Zelaya's cables were addressed
to Consul General Altschul, who gladly
translated them for a half dozen moro
correspondents as fast as they came in.
There are some words here which 1t
will be very hard to translate into Eng
lish," said General Altschul, "for through
translation they will lose much of their
force. President Zelaya assures me, how
ever, that there has been some terrible
fighting, and 1t is quite apparent that the
enemy Is thoroughly panic-stricken."
No list of casualties is given, but the
rebels have been badly beaten. There is
no doubt about that. President Zelaya
says that the work of his Maxim guns II
more than satisfactory
General Altschul then got down map
and showed the close proximity Of Paso
de Lajas to Rama. One of the cables
signed by President Zelaya said Paso de
Lajas had been captured. General Alt
schul said that 1t would now be very
easy matter for the government army to
move through Rama to Bluenelds.
Today's news received a glad welcome In
| local Latin-American circles. Things had
been dull. The last advices received con-
| tanned the information that the rainy sea-
son there had proved the usual Inn
portant factor in the flghting, and that
hostilities might cease for some time. The
| failure of the management to provide
| rain checks for the correspondents was
discouraging, and some had given up all
hopes of hearing again from President
| Zelaya and General Estrada for long
J time.

TICE MAY NOT BE
NAMED UNTIL DECEMBER

There is an unwritten law of the august
court itself for this, founded upon sound
sense, which is likely to be respected,
for 1t is fact that it has been the
unbroken practice of all Presidents to
advise with the members of the court
before filling vacancies on its bench.
The objection to the seating of JUS
tce during recess of Congress Is that
the failure of the Senate to confirm his
nomination would seriously impair the
weight of any decisions on important
cases in which he may have participated.
Further it has been reasoned that the
attitude of a Justice in considering cases
of a political nature while holding a tenn
porary commission might be influenced by
a natural desire to secure the approval
of a sufficient number of senators to in
sure his confirmation.
