1t doesn't pay to stick too closely to
old notions of things. New ideas often
lead to better health, success and hap
piness.
A Wis. couple examined an idea new
to them and stepped up several rounds
on the health ladder. The husband
writes:
Several years ago we suffered from
coffee drinking, were sleepless,
nervous, sallow, weak and irritable.
My wife and 1 both loved coffee and
thought it was a bracer." (delusion.)
Finally, after years of suffering, we
read OF Postum and the harmfulness
of coffee, and believing that to grow
we should give some attention to new
ideas, we decided to test Postum.
when we made it right we liked it
and were relieved of ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the change
-fresher skin, steadier nerves, better
temper, etc.
These changes were not sudden,
but relief increased as we continued to
drink and enjoy Postum, and we lost
the desire for coffee.
Many of our friends did not like
Postum at first, because they did not
make 1t right. But when they boiled

liked it better than coffee and were

ton was thronged with people eager to
see the magnificent spectacle. All day
Pennsylvania avenue was packed with
the crowds.
Scene of Great Beauty.
The scene was one of constant
movement and constant color. The
red, white and blue foated from every
f1agpole and fell as drapery from
every cornice. The inaugural commit
tee succeeded this year in outdoing
all previous efforts at decorative eff
feet.
In the line of march leading from
the capitol up Pennsylvania avenue,
past the great treasury building and
White House there were nearly 1000
regular troops and twice as many
members of the National Guard of the
different states and independent mill
tary organizations. The civic fea-
lures of the parade were many. The
trades, the professions and all kinds
of business activities were represent
ed by thousands of persons who came
to Washington to do honor to the
country's new civil chief.

met the outgoing president in the
White House. About an hour before
noon the congressional committee of
arrangements, consisting of Senators
Knox, Lodge and Bacon, and Repre-
sentatives Burke, Young and Gaines,
arrived at the executive mansion and
informed the president and the presi-
dent-elect that congress was in readi-
ness for the ceremonies of the actual
Inauguration.
Escorted by a guard of honor of
veterans, Messrs. Roosevelt and Taft
and the several committees then drove
to the capitol, where they were met
by Vice-President Fairbanks and Mr..
Sherman. All went to the senate
chamber. where, after prayer by Ed
ward Everett Hale, chaplain of the
senate, Mr.. Sherman took the oath of
office as vice-president and delivered
his inaugural address. He then ad-
ministered the oath to the newly
elected United States senators.
Present on the floor of the senate
chamber were many former senators
of the United States, who have the
privilege of the senate at all times
owing to the fact of once having held
membership in the body.
Taft Is Made President.
AS soon as the senators-elect had
been sworn into Office, a procession
was formed to march from the senate
chamber through the rotunda of the
capitol to the east side of the build
ing.
The platform upon which President
Taft took the oath of Office extended
well out from the portico until it
overriding the broad plaza to the east,
where directly to the front were gath
cred the cadets from the military and
naval academies, to the rear of whom
were the other military bodies.
The white-haired chief justice of the
United States, Melville w. Fuller, ad-
ministered the oath of office to Mr..
Taft, who, when he had taken it, bent
and kissed the Bible held in the hand
of his country's chief jurist. Imme-

The military division had the right
of way after the presidents escort.
At its head were the West Point ca
diets and the midshipmen from the
naval academy at Annapolis. The
cadets of both schools were cheered,
as they always have been cheered at
every inaugural parade in which they
have taken part. Immediately behind
the future officers of army and navy
came the regulars of the military serv-
ice. In the line were the $500 men
who had formed the Cuban army of
pacification.

When the last of the parading bod

to the White House for a short rest

Came Near Defeat in Foot
ball Game Saturday.

Rhinelander came near losing
the 1909 pennant for the north
ern Wisconsin football associa-
ton (not-incorporated) to Eagle
River last Saturday upon the
home grounds
Rhinelander kicked off to Eagle
River and ball placed in scrim-
mage about the middle of the
field. In a punt Miracle secured
the ball and made run of forty
yards, being tackled a few feet
from the goal; Lawton was sent
over for a touchdown. Engel-
stead failed to kick goal. Score
Eagle River 5.
On an intercepted forward
pass of Eagle Rivers, Reed of
Rhinelander made a run OF thirty
wards for a touchdown. Rhine
lander kicked goal Score first
hall: Eagle River 5, Rhinelan-
der 6.
In the last few minutes of PLAY
in the first halt Rhinelander had
the ball within two feet of the
goal but were held for downs by
the Eagle River line.
In the second half the locals
were within striking distance of
the goal but the Rhinelander
team by strong defensive work
held their own and the half ended
with the ball in Eagle River ter
ritory.
Brown played a good game
for Rhinelander and for Eagle
River the work of Englestead
and Lawton was especially good
The game was the best played
this season on the home grounds
and the local team with a little
more playing would cause some
of the teams from the larger
cities to lay awake nights hgur-
ing on how the pennant might
have looked. Merrill, considered
to be one of the strongest teams
was defeated by Rhinelander Is
to O. Rhinelande1- won the first
game from Eagle River 5 to 0;
the Saturday game 6 to 5. We
gave them the fight OF their life
and next year we intend to get
the pennant.
