THE FIRST TASTE
Learned to Drink Coffee When Baby.

II parents realized the fact that cof-

would doubtless hesitate before giving
the babies coffee to drink.

things at the table, mother used to
give me sips OF coffee. AS nay 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 ef coffee SO
affected my parents that they tried
roasting wheat and barley, then

stitute for coffee.

BIG CASH BALANCE
Nearly 81, 900, 600 in State Treas
ury at End Of Biennial Period
THE SHOWING IS IMPROVED
Large Increase Over Balance for the
Corresponding Period Of Last
Year-Financial Institutions
In Good Condition.

Des Moines, Oct. 31.--The state
treasury had a balance of half mil.
lion dollars greater at the close OF
the biennial period ending June 80,
1910, than it did at the close Of the
previous biennial period, according
to the biennial report of Auditor OF
State Bleakly. filed with Governor
Carroll.
The report shows that on June 80.
1908, the state treasury had a bal
ance of $437.602.11, while at the end
6f the last biennial period there was
balance of $956,914.05 in the Golfers
Of the state treasury, OF gain or
half million dollars.
The report of Auditor Bleakly
shows also that the general assembly
, will have fund of over $1,000,000
from which to make extraordinary ap.
preparations during the next assem-.
bly,, this being his estimate after cal.
culating what the state will receive
and spend during the next two years.
His report on the banks shows the
financial institutions of the state to
be in excellent condition. He reports
that there have been no failures
since November. 1907, and that de-
posits and capital has increased in
large figures. Many new financial in.
situations have been established, too,
so he states.
In connection with the report, Aud.
itor Bleakly makes several recon-
mendations, one Of which is that
hereafter his bank report be madt
separately from the general report
Of his office. The present system OF
combining the two makes too cum
bersome a document, he states, and
costs too much to express.
