EGAN'S APPEAL HEARD.

The arguments in the Egan appeal
case concerning the states attorney
ship Of Minnehaha county were pre-
scented at Pierre, Egan appearing for
himself and standing strictly on what
he claimed to be his constitutional
rights, which no legislature or court
had the power to abridge. G. j. Dan
forth, his opponent, presented his
W case, and took the position that
as Egan was not an attorney in South
Dakota he could not fill the constitu-
tional requirements nor the legisla.
tive requirements of the office and
could not act. The case has been tax.
en- under advisement by the court.

DIDN'T KNOW
Coffee Was the Cause.

Many daily habits, particularly Of
eating and drinking, are formed by fol.
lowing our elders.
In this way Ill health is often fas-
tened upon children. A Ga. lady says:
Il had been allowed to drink coffee
ever since l could remember. but even
as a child I had a weak stomach,
which frequently refused to retain
food.
The taste Of coffee was in my
mouth all the time and was, as I found
out later, the cause OF the stomach r.
belling against food.
Il now see that it was only from fol-
lowing the example OF my elders that
l formed and continued the miserable
habit of drinking coffee. My digestion
remained poor, nerves u%nstrung, fire.
quent headache, and yet I did not sus-
pect the true cause.
Another trouble was a bad, muddy
complexion for which l spent time and
money for creams, massaging, etc.,
without any results.
AFTER l was married I was asked to
try Postum, and would you believe It,
l, an old coffee topper, took to Postum
from the very first. We made it right
according to directions on the pkg,
and 1t had = most delicate flavor. and
at once quit coffee, with the happiest
results.
Il now have q perfectly clear, smooth
skin, fine digestion and haven't had :
headache in over two years."

TO MAINE,
A Man Who Plants Thousands Of
Trees Offers Prizes TO Others.

frees OHerS PriZeS TO others.
A plan for the reforestation of the
State of Maine has been submitted to
the governor by B. C. Jordon of Al
fred. Mr.. Jordon offers to give the
state 5 1000 on condition that once in
eighteen years five prizes shall be
awarded for the five best lots of young
forest growth.
These lots are to consist of not less
than ten acres, accurately surveyed
and plotted, the majority Of the trees
to be not less than ten nor more than
thirty feet high, and not less than ten
nor more than thirty years old when
the prizes are awarded. The varieties
of trees to be grown are specified and
cover a long list from white pine to
elm.
Mr.. Jordon believes that the incen-
tive afforded by such prizes would do
much to bring about better forestry
conditions. Maine has many thou
sands OF acres of waste land, now al
most worthless, but naturally we'll
adapted to timber growth, and which
by a small expense for care and for
| est cultivation could be made easily
worth in fifty years 500 an acre.
In this way the state, instead of be-
ing of the poorest in the Union might
be made one of the richest. Fifty
| years is a large part of one persons
| life, but a very small part Of the life
Of a state. MI. Jordon himself set
| out from ten to fifteen thousand trees
last summer, and states that he hopes
to set out many thousands every year
as long as he lives.
