LIGHT BOOZE
Do You Drink IT.

A minister's wife had quite a tussle
with coffee and her experience is inter
esting. She says
During the two years Of my training
as a nurse, while on night duty, 1 be-
came addicted 20 coffee drinking Be
tween midnight and four IN the morning.
when the patients were asleep, there
was little to do except make the rounds.
and II was quite natural that I should
want good, hot cup OF coffee about
that time. II stimulated me and I could
keep awake better.
After three or four years of coffee
drinking / became a nervous wreck and
thought that I simply could not live
without my coffee. All this time I was
subject 10 frequent bilious attacks, some
times so severe as to keep me in bed
for several days
After being married, husband begged
me to leave on coffee for he feared that
It had already hurt me almost beyond
repair. so resolved to make an effort
20 release myself from the hurtful habit.
81 began tstlIing Postum and for a few
days felt the languid. tired feeling from
the lack Of stimulant, but I liked the
taste OF Postum. and that answered for
the breakfast beverage all right
Finally began TO feel clearer headed
and had steadier nerves. After q years
use of Postum I now feel like a new
woman-have not had any bilious at
tacks since left off coffee

Of cooperation from some of the Capt.

Mr.. Wanamaker's idea was recently

ate approval OF Gen. Nelson A. Miles,
Gen. Horace Porter, Homer Davenport
and other prominent guests who saw
I'm the plan the means of doing honor
at this late date TO a race deserving
much at the hands of the white man.
The time is coming. Mr.. WanamakeT

AdventiStS Hold Preachers
Work Consists in Re-
ligious Duty.
NEW SUNDAY LAWS
BEING ADVOCATED
State Aid for Unemployed Is
Favored by Takoma Park
Delegates.

1t is a minister's duty 70 preach the
gospel and leave the settlement Of alb
straet questions appertaining TO labor
ing men and their rights 70 other au-
thorities, according to The unanimous
opinion OF the delegates to the Seventh
Day Adventists' conference at Takoma
Park. This was expressed after a dis
cussion Of religious liberty today.
Sunday legislation and the laboring
man were the topics Prof Frank
Grlggs read brief paper on the subject
supplementing this with extended re-
marks.
There was little or no question in the
minds OF the delegates that Sunday leg
isiation OF any description is religious
legislation. A law requiring employers
10 grant to their employees the right
TO rest one day in seven without speci-
Tying the day is necessary, declared
Prof. Griggs.
Elder E T. Russell, president OF the
Central Union Conference. held that it
would be as consistent for religious or
ganizations to secure work for the un-
employed by legislation as it IS to Sc
cure physical rest for a class of citi-
zens by the same means.
Law Cannot Reach.
Referring to the Constitution of the
United States. Elder Russell said that
50 far as labor was concerned invOlun-
tary serYttude is prohibited except as
punishment for a crime. There may be
industrial slavery that the law cannot
reach. Conditions Of this sort may
never be ameliorated satisfactorily to
all parties concerned. With these things.
however, he continued, religious organi-
zations can have nothing to do, except
At the risk of entangling alliances that
may eventually DO the cause of relig-
ious liberty more harm than good, and
result IN very little II any benefit TO the
labOring element.
Report of the publishing department
was presented at the sixth annual meet
ing OF the Review and Herald Publish
ms Association. Prof. W. w. Prescott

sioneries work in the Pacific Islands.
This afternoon an Important reDort
VIII be made of the work that has been
