He weaves them not in words that

 Heroic measures. tragic lines. But in such accents low and m- -ek As sympathy alone divines. Unfettered by eccentric rhyme. He sings of mans eternal quest In language simple. yet sublime. By truth and love and joy imprcsaedi And 10. his liquid measures sweet To tell of the hearts high hopes and

 Keep out of doors all you can. Breathe outdoor air, live in it, revel in it. Don't shut yourself up. Build your houses so that the air supply is good. Throw away your portieres and bric-a-brac. Don't have useless trities about you
 Have a favorite form of exercise and make the most of it. Ride on horseback if you can; cycle if you can not get horse; do anything to get out in the open air.
 Don't overeat Drink little and let that little be pure. Don't try to dress too much, yet dress as we'll as you are able. Wear everything you can to make yourself lovely.

POSTAL CARD FAD.

We common people do use few postal cards annually. Uncle Sam is just now considering a contract for g. 600,000,000 postal cards to be sold during the next four years-a matter of e0,000,000 a year These will cost the government sS00,000, and the peo- pie will pay s36,0OO,0O0 for them, which also includes the cost of deliv- ering. But this does not comprise the postal card output. We are now an nually buying from Germany alone 700,000,000 postal cards, and also sev- eral millions from France and other European nations. But Germany has thus far had a cinch on the colored postal card trade, for even American publishers, instead of doing their own printing and lithograpEing, have fou.d 1t more profitable to place orders di- rect with German houses. It is safe to say that Americans buy 2,500,000,- 900 postal cards year-20 to 25 Aor each man, woman and child in the country. More than half of these are of the picture variety. But suppose Uncle Sam should invade the picture postal field? What a howl would 90 up from the picture postal card mak- CTS.

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 North Carolina says:
 My mother since her early child hood, was an inveterate coffee drinker and had been troubled with her heart for number of years, and com plained of that weak all over feeling and sick stomach.
 Some time ago I was making an of ticial visit to a distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. l no ticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of the coffee, and asked him concerning it. He replied that it was Postum.
 q was so pleased with it, that after the meal was over, I bought a pack age to carry home with me, and had wife prepare some for the next meal. The whole family liked it so well, that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely
 T had really been at times very anx- ious concerning my mothers condition. but we noticed that after using Postum for a 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 us.
 "I know Postum has benefited my self and the other members of the fam fly, but not in so marked a degree as in the case of my mother, as she was a victim of long standing"

WHAT IS PAINT?

The paint on house is the extreme outside of the house. The wood is simply a structural under layer. That is as it should be. Unprotected wood will not we'll withstand weather. But paint made of pure white lead and linseed oil is an invulnerable armor against sun and rain, heat and cold, Such paint protects and preserves, fortifying the perishable wood with a complete metallic casing.
 And the outside of the house is the looks of the house. A well-construct- ed building may be greatly depre- ciated by lack of painting or by poor painting.
 National Lead Company have made it possible for every building owner to be absolutely sure of pure white lead paint before applying. They do this by putting upon every package of their white lead their Dutch Boy Painter trademark That trademark is a complete guarantee.

The story from London that Consue- To. duchess of Manchester, saved the kings life at a dinner on the royal yacht, by skipping him on the back to prevent his choking, almost precisely parallels what happened to the Ger man kaiser few months ago. It is not because they disapprove of their royal sovereigns, but because they al most superstitiously revere them, that the average persons among European subjects fear to slap king on the back.
