It's Absolutely
True
Nervous Woman stopped Coffee and
Quit Other Things.
CRIED EASILY

No better practical proof that cof-
fee is drug can be required than
to note how the nerves become un-
strung in persons who habituany
drink it.
The stomach, too. rebels at being
continually drugged with coffee and
tea-they both contain the drug
caffeine. Ask your doctor.
An Ia. woman tells the old story
thus:
Il had used coffee for six years
and was troubled with headaches,
nervousness and dizziness. In the
morning upon rising l used to belch
up sour fluid, regularly
often | got so nervous and mis-
erable | would cry without the least
reason, and | noticed my eyesight
was getting poor.
After using Postum a while. I
observed the headaches left me and
soon the belching stopped (water
brash from dyspepsia). / feel de-
cidedly different now. and / am con-
vinced that it is because / stopped
coffee and began the use of Postum
can see better now, my eyes are
stronger.
"A friend of mine did not like
Postum but when l told her to
make it according to directions on
the packa ge, she liked il all right"
Always boil Postum well and 1t

Suit was begun in the superior court
yesterday by DR.. W. Winterberg against
Rudolph Spreckels and Claus Augustus
SpreckeIs, executors of the estate of
Claus spreckels, for $4,000 for profess
sional services rendered the sugar king
from October, 1905, to February. 1906.
An account was sent to the executors
soon after the death of Claus Spreckels,
but it led to nothing more than an ex-
tended correspondence on this subject,
and then the suit was brought. Doctor
Winterberg says that he was led to be-
iieve that the account would be settled,
but firing OF the delay he decided to
carry the matter to the courts for de-
termina ton.

THE SUNDAY NIGHT SUPPER
Time of All Times Where the Expert
with the Chatting Dish Can
Make Good.

Probably the most sociable meal in
the whole week is the Sunday night
supper. 1t is an informal occasion for
the dropping in of intimate friends,
and the informality adds to its charm.
In many households the servants are
allowed to take holiday on Sunday
afternoons, and the members of the
family bestir themselves for supper
with the chatting dish, and perhaps the
delicatessen shop, as assistants 1t is
an opportunity for experimental cook
ing with an indulgent company and
the delicious dishes that may be con-
cocted on these occasions are mani
fold. OF course, gas stove is even
better than chatting dish for cooking
things, but the shining metal dish
over the alcohol flame is very cheer
full looking ornament on the supper ia
Bile. While somebody mixes the salad
and somebody else slices the bread,
the confident culinary queen, who is
generally the eldest sister, takes the
chatting dish in hand.

For a bread box, covered stone
crock.
The bread will keep much nicer
than in tin vessel
The crock should be placed in a
cool place.
Never put the bread in it without
covering it with cloth, to exclude
the air.
To keep sandwiches that have been
prepared beforehand moist, wrap them
in a slightly damp cloth.
This is not practical if they are to
be kept too long, as they will get
musty.
Be careful that not a bit of butter
gets into the bread box. 1t will get
rancid and make the rest of the bread
taste.
Receptacles should be scalded out
frequently, being wiped well after
ward.
The cloths used to cover the bread
should also be washed often.

Home

Sugar should be added to turnips,
beets, peas, corn, squash and pumpkin.
Spareribs should be broiled rather
than roasted, and served with apple
sauce and mashed turnips.
1t takes longer to cook sweet pota-
toes than the common kind and they
cook more quickly in salt water.
A meat chopper may be better
cleaned by running piece of bread
through the machine before washing.
Oatmeal can be used instead of bar
ley or rice in the soup. 1t thickens it,
and adds flavor which is pleasant.
Place mirrors so that the direct rays
of the sun do not fall upon them. 1t
gives the glass a milky appearance
which can never be entirely remedied.
To remove tea, coffee, fruit and
vegetable stains from white goods,
heap salt on the spot, rub hard, and
rinse it in hot water in which consid-
cradle borax has been dissolved.
A reliable test for mushrooms, says
an experienced housekeeper, is to put
a bit of silver, such as a well-washed
dime, into a dish in which they are
cooked. If it discolors the mush-
rooms are unfit for food.
