HARD TO DROP

dition remained unchanged. / did not
want to acknowledge coffee caused the
trouble for l was very fond of it. At
that time a friend came to live with
us, n | noticed that after he had
been with us a week he would not
drink his coffee any more. asked him
the reason. He replied, 4 have not had
a headache since l left Off drinking cOf-
fee, some months ago, till last week,
when began again, here at your table.
l don't see how anyone can like coffee,
anyway, after drinking Postum!'
Il said nothing, but at once ordered
a package of Postum. That was five
months ago, and we have drank no
coffee since, except on two occasions
when we had company, and the result
each time was that my husband could
not sleep, but lay awake and tossed
and talked half the night. We were
convinced that coffee caused his suffer-
ing, SO he returned to Postum. con.
WINGED that coffee was an enemy, in.
stead of a friend, and he is troubled
no more with insomnia.
II, myself, have gained 8 pounds in

WHY MINISTER'S RESIGN.

Rev. DR.. Sparks w. Melton, pastor
of the Freemason Street Baptist
Church, of Norfolk, sprung a sensa-
ton on the Portsmouth Baptist Asso-
citation, in session at London Bridge,
recently, when he read a paper discuss
ing reasons why more men do not en-
ter the ministry. He declared that the
serpent-tongued women have set many
pastors writing their designations, and
that the laity will sometimes resort to
the lowest and mcancst cXpedlentS IN
crushing men who arc not wanted.
He declared that the ministry is one
of the most highly competitive profes-
sions, whose members are not bound
by ethics; that some preachers act like
ecclesiastical pirates and that preacher
frequently finds himself in his relations
with other preachers like a sheep
among wolves.
Doctor Sparks accused congregations
Of going about seeking q minister as
they would horse, who could be got
ten rid OF if not liked" and that one
woman in congregation can smite a
preacher to death.
He declared that minister is crlti-
cised for the way in which he parts his
hair and for the color of his trousers.

RICHMOND,S INCREASE.

Richmond has made a striking in
crease in its population during the past
decade. Announcement was made at
the census bureau last night that the
official count OF the thirteenth census
gives Richmond a population OF l27,-
G2S for 1910, as compared with 1850
in 1900 and 81 ,3SS in 1890.
The increase for 1900 to 1910 IS,
therefore, 42,57S or SOL per cent. as
compared with an increase for the pre-
ccding decade Of 1862, or only 40 per
cent This is due largely to the an
ncxation OF the suburb of Manchester,
which in the previous census was
