Jackson, Miss, Feb. 1S.-Seyeral
very stringent anti-cussing bills have
been presented at this session OF the
legislature, the latest of which is from
Mr., Adams of Tishomingo, who wants
to make it a misdemeanor to use any
form of abusive, profane, indecent OF
vulgar language in the presence OF
the fair sex.
| Under the Adams bill, if strictly
construed, a man would be deprived
of the privilege of abusing his wife
if he saw fit to do SO, and it would
be interesting to know what interpreta
ton the courts would place on sucl
a statute, and how far they woul'
permit a man to go in expressing dill
ferences of opinions with the gentle
sex.
| The judiciary committee has unde
consideration several bills of simila
tenor, and it has been suggested tina
a special day be appointed to revie'
the anti-cussing measure.

from the change from coffee to Postum
was the natural action OF the kidneys
and bowels. In two weeks my heart
action was greatly improved and my
nerves steady.
Then I became less despondent,
and the desire to be active ugain

mental strength.
