and upward have increased 20 more

NEW IDEA
Helped Wis. Couple.

It doesn't pay to stick too closely
TO old notions Of things. New ideas
often lead to better health, success
and happiness.
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, we're sleepless,
nervous, sallow, weak, and irritable.
My wife and / both loved coffee and
thought It was a bracer." (delusion).
Finally, after years of suffering,
we read Of Postum and the harmful
ness of coffee, and believing that to
grow we should give some attention
20 new ideas, we decided to test Pos
tum.
when we made it right we liked
1t and we're relieved of ills caused by
coffee, Our friends noticed the
change-fresher skin, sturdier nerves,
better temper, etc
These changes we're not sudden,
but relief increased as we continued
60 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 it right. But when they boiled
Postum according to directions on
pkg, until 1t was dark and rich they
liked 1t better chan coffee and were
benefited by the change" There's

see a return to soft and light tints in

Cause for Alarm.

An elderly patient in the Tennes.
Ice mountain region was suffering
from a malady, the remedy for
which the doctor prescribed in the
form of capsules. The old woman
trusted her medical adviser but for
medicine she evlnced much suspicion.
Some time after she had taken the
capsules she was asked by her son
how she felt.
"Porely"
Don't you want nuthin' to eat?"

soon, however, the old woman
arose from her bed and took her seat
in rocking chair. Thinking that the
attention would be gratefully receiv-
ed, the son filled her pipe, and TAX
ing a live coal from the hearth, car
ried both to his mother.

old woman, in the utmost friEht.

words staccato and her emphasis
sharp. She may not intend to be dis
agreeable, but the effect is not altered
by intentions.
The irritation Of disturbed hor-
nets nest is mild compared with the
feelings aroused by the layer down
Of the law. Even when in the right
her wisdom is hated on general prin-
ciples.
She can stir up more opposition
than a motion to raise taxes. You
go out of your way to thwart her, and
make yourself uncomfortable doing
what she does not wish.
Silent protest or open pugnacity is
the usual attitude of her hearers.
The good-tempered sufferer Tevels

scrapper.
Tact is not her long suit. The
more reason there is for silence the
louder is her expression Of opinion.
Her knowledge of where her own
business ends is scant.
1t is the layer down of the law
who can be depended upon to say the
wrong thing every time. She 1t is
who makes it her business to take
meek little wife to task for her hus-
bands shortcomings or widens a
breach by telling both combatants
their duty.
If only she knew how great is her
conceit! Most people find regulating
their own lives so difficult that they
are slow to think themselves capable
of including the rest of mankind in
their managing.
Seeing both sides is not her chief
characteristic. Her way is the right
way, and woe to the one who differs!
Arguing is as futile as the fight with
old age.
You might understand her better il
she were ever in the wrong To be
able just once to convince the regu-
lator that her opinion is unfounded
we would cheerfully consent to be
"bossed" the rest Of our days.
She would be easier to bear if her
rulings were from the height Of su-
periority. Too often the director of
the morals and manners of others is
far from being invulnerable herself.

In the sentence handed out to an
clipping pair by Judge Wisner, Of
Flint, Mich, there is a warning to all
others who may be contemplating
similar step. Grance Conger, a young
married woman, who ran away to
New York State with Orson Brooks,
pleaded guilty and was placed on pro-
baton for period OF three years,
during which time she is forbidden to
leave her home at night except in the
company of an adult member Of the
family, nor can she entertain COM
pany in her home unless a relative be
present. In addition to this the young
woman must report to the Court
every sixty days.
Brooks, who also pleaded guilty,
was sentenced TO from six months to
three years in the Ionia Reforma-

AN ATTITUDE TOWARD WAGES.

AN ATTITUDE TOWARD WAGES.
II knew Sadie Foster spoke the
truth in this description of the atti-
tude toward wages of the employer
of 'unskilled labor in department
stores. 1t is sufficient for the en-
ployer to know that there are hun
dreds of girls Just as good to be
had where these come from, and that
he runs a very small chance of los
ing a star girl in turning down
flip one who wants more wages.
Capable saleswomen are so few and
far between that they are tagged as
carefully as lepers at large in the
city, and their history and where
abouts known to a minute. There
is no union behind these women
workers to push their demands, nor
are there State laws TO protect them,
even in the matter of the long hours
Of standing, In a few States there
are laws requiring employers to pro-
vide seats, but there are no laws
forcing the employer to allow them
to be used pt the will of the worker.
