NEW IDEA

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 1t
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 IL right. But when they boiled

liked it better than coffee and were

One grammar school of Chicago has
solved the vexed question of gradua-
ton gowns for the girls, or rather the
principal has solved it for them.
Glasses in the highest grade of the
grammar schools have formal gradua
ton exercises because so many of the
pupils end their school days at that
time, and it has become the custom to
make quite a function of the proceed
ings. As many of the children come
from families not able to provide elab-
crate costumes the question of dress
has become a vexed one. The princi-
pal mentioned cogitated on the matter,
therefore, and issued on order that
each girl must make her own gradual
ing gown out OF a specified grade of
material, before she could have her
diploma. These girls will now make
their appearance in gowns costing
s1.39 each and with no soreness or
hard feelings toward anyone. 1t was
a happy thought.
