THE FIRST TASTE
Learned 10 Drink Coffee When a Baby.

II parents realized the fact that cot
fee contains drug -cdfeine-which Is
especially harmful TO children. they
would doubtless hesitate before giving
the babies coffee to drink
When | was a child in my moth
er's 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. l remember when quite
young the continual use OF coffee so
affected my parents that they tried
roasting wheat and barley. then
ground 1t in the cof1ee-mill, as a sub
stitute for coffee.
But 1t did not taste right and they
went back to coffee again. That was
long before Postum was ever heard
of. l continued to use coffee until l
was 81, and when l got into Office
work, 7 began to have nervous spells.
Especially after breakfast / was so
nervous l could scarcely attend to my
correspondence.
AT night. after having coffee for
supper. l could hardly sleep, and on
rising in the morning would feel weak
and nervous.
"A friend persuaded me to try
Postum. Ny wife and l did not like
1t at first. but later when boiled good
and strong it was fine. Now we would
not give up Postum for the best coffee
we ever tasted.
q can now get good sleep, am free
from nervousness and headaches
recommend Postum to all coffee drink
ers."

IDEAS ABOUT THE RAINBOW
Queer Notions Held by People Of
Different Countries Regard
Ing the Bow.

In many countries the rainbow is
spoken Of as being a great bent pump
Or siphon tube, drawing water from
the earth by mechanical means. In
parts of Russia, In the Don country,
and also in Moscow and vicinity, it
Is known by a name which is %equiva-
lent to "the bent water-pipe." In
nearly all Slavonic dialects it is
known by terms s%ignifying "the cloud
Biphon," and in Hungary it is "the
pump" "Noah's pump and Goods
pump" The Malayan natives call it
by the same name that they do their
manded water cobra, only that they
Md "boba" (meaning double-headed),
the equivalent in our language being
the double-headed w~ater-snake."
They tell you that the bow is a real
thing of life, that it drinks with its
two mouths, and that the water is
transferred to the clouds through an
opening in the upper side Of the cen
ire Of the great arch. In the province
Of Charkav, Russia, the rainbow Is
gaid to drain the wells, and to prevent
this many are provided with heavy,
tight-htting stone platforms.

~ BELIEVE that Governor
.HM. Hughes has been support
XSN ed by the bulk of the wis
&WNE est and most disinterested
% public opinion as regards
A most of his measures and
positions, and I think that this has
been markedly the ase as regards
direct primary nominations. 1 know
that many honest and sincere men
are on principle opposed to Governor
Hughes on this point, and I know also
that the proposed reform will very
possibly accomplish less than its ex-
IRENE advocates expect; while | am
we'll aware, as Of course all thinking
men must be. that the worth of any
such measure In the last resort de-
ponds upon the character of the vot-
ers, and that no patent device will
ever secure good government unless
the people themselves devote sufh-
cient energy, time, and judgment to
make the device work. Finally, l
freely admit that here and there,
where the principle of direct nomina,
lions has been applied in too crude
shape or wrongheadedly, it has, while
abolishing certain evils, produced or
accumulated others-in certain gases,
for instance, putting a premium upon
the lavish expenditure of money.
But while I freely admit all this, 1
nevertheless feel, in the first place,
that on the fundamental issue Of d.
rect primary nominations the Cover
nor is right, and, in the second place,
that, as the measure finally came up
for action in the state legislature, it
was well-nigh free from all objections
save those Of the men who object to
It because they are fundamentally op-
posed to any change whatever in the
desired direction. The bill provided
only for direct popular action in the
primaries in relatively small geo
graphical and political communities,
thereby making the experiment first
where there was least liability to Sc
rious objection, and avoiding or defer
ring the task of dealing with those big
communities where the difficulties and
dangers to be overcome would be
greatest. Moreover, while guarantee
ing full liberty of individual action, it
also provided for the easy mainte-
nance of party organization, and
thereby avoided some very real dan
gers-among them that Of encourag-
Ing the S of masses Of the minority
party in any given district to dictate
the actions of the majority party. In
other words, the proposed bill, while
1t marked a very real step in advance,
was tentatively and cautiously franz

guards against abuses. If in practice

lar, there would have been no possible

SUIT TO STOP JUDGES SALARY.
Tax Payer Maintains That Population

er, to stop payment of the salary Of
$4,000 a year to County Judge Dins-
more Of that county. The salary is
fixed by population, and for the pur-
pose of this population basis the coun-
ty auditors are supposed to make up
lists. This has apparently not been
done in Stanley county, the commits
sioners basing their estimates of pop
ulation either upon the vote, or upon
the lists Of names returned by the
