THE FIRST TASTE Learned to Drink Coffee When Baby

If parents realized the fact that cof- fee contains drug-cafe feine-which is especially harmful to children, they would doubtless hesitate before giving the babies coffee to drink
 When l was child in my moth CTS arms and first began to nibble things at the table. mother used to give me sips of coffee. As my parents used coffee exclusively at meals never knew there was anything to drink but coffee and water.
 And so l contracted the coffee habit early. I remember when quite young the continual use of coffee so affected my parents that they tried roasting wheat and barley, then ground it in the coffee mill, as sub stitute for coffee.
 But it did not taste right and they went back to coffee again. That was long before Postum was ever heard of. I continued to use coffee until was 27, and when I got into office work, I began to have nervous spells. Especially after breakfast I was so nervous I could scarcely attend to my correspondence.
 At night, after having coffee for supper, I could hardly sleep, and on rising in the morning would feel weak and nervous.
 "A friend persuaded me to try Postum. My wife and l did not like it at first, but later when boiled good and strong 1t was fine. Now we would not give up Postum for the best coffee we ever tasted.
 T can now get good sleep, am free from nervousness and headaches. recommend Postum to all coffee drink CTS"

 Arthur Damon had rome experience with hotels, big and little. In fact, the youths income had allowed him to see something of life on most expensive plane, and this move in the capacity of a cigar salesman had nothing to do with needing the money. There were other reasons. But in all Damon's experience an ath- letic instructor for the guests of a hotel was unheard of You are a what?" he gasped

AWFUL BURNING ITCH CURED
 IN A DAY

Tn the middle of the night of March A30th 1 woke up with a burning itch in Hpy two hands and 1 felt as if l could
 ull them apart. In the morning the Dnching had gone to my chest and dur ing that day 1t spread all over my body. I was red and raw from the top of my head to the soles of my feet and l was in continual agony from the itching. I could neither lie down nor sit up. l happened to see about Cuti- cura Remedies, and I thought I would give them trial. l took a good bath with the Cuticura Soap and used the Cuticura Ointment. I put it on from my head down to my feet and then went to bed. On the first of April I felt like a new man. The itching was almost gone. l continued with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment and during that day the itching com- pletely left me.

GettInq -Reputation.

There is desk In the senate par tlcularly convenient as place from which to make speeches. It Is next to the aisle and almost in the center of the chamber, and affords an oppor- tunity for the speaker to make every body hear.
 At least a dozen senators, accord ing to the Washington correspondent of the St. Louis Star, have borrowed this desk when they had special utter ences to deliver to the senate. This led, not long ago, to a mild protest from its legitimate occupant.
 q am perfectly willing to give up my desk,' said he, but I am afraid people will think that the same man is talking all the time. I don't want to get the reputation of constantly filling the senate with words"- Youths Companion.

STONE IN BLADDER REMOVED
 IN REMARKABLE WAY

A year and half ago I was taken with a severe attack of kidney trouble that pained me to such an extent that nor, phine had to be given me. Was attended by doctor who pronounced it as stone in the bladder and prescribed Llthla Water. I took Lithia Water and tablets for some time and received no relief from them. I stopped taking medicines for some time and having some Dr. kilmers Swamp-Root in the house, l decided to try it and felt much relieved; while taking the second bottle commenced to pass gravel in urine until l had passed in all at least half a dozen or more and have not suffered the slightest since and in all have taken one bottle and half and feel very grateful to Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
