A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE
Medicine Not Needed in Thu. Case.

1t is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury! They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsupported
one.
But the doctor knows. HIS wide ex-
perience has proven to him that, to
some systems, coffee Is an insidious
poison that undermines the health.
Ask the doctor If coffee is the cause
of constipation, stomach and nervous
troubles.
Il have been a coffee drinker all
my life. / am now AZ years old and
when taken sick two years ago with
nervous prostration. the doctor SAID
that my nervous system was broken
down and that / would have to give
up coffee.
Il got so weak and shaky / could
not work. and reading your advertise
ment of Postum. | asked my grocer II
he had any of it. He said, Yes and
that he used It in his family and 1t
was all 1t claimed to be.

use Postum steadily and found In

soundly at night and get up in the
morning feeling fresh. In about two
months began to gain flesh. I weigh
ed only LAG pounds when / commenced
on Postum and now I weigh 1877 and
feel better than l did at 20 years Of
age.
Il am working every day and sleep
well at night. My two children were
great coffee drinkers, but they have
not drank any since Postum came into
the house, and are far more healthy
than they were before"

Michael Petroff, one of the most
prominent men In the secret police, was
receiving the last instructions from his
chief. The task before him vas to ar
rest a certain nihilist, who had caused
the czar'sp police much trouble, and who
was said to be the head of n Of he
most dangerous societies ever known in
ST. Petersburg, which had played a
most important part in the Borkt affair.
Borinski, the nihilist in question, had
been discovered working as a plain la
borer in the imperial navy yard, n
while the whole secret service had been
hunting for him all Over Russia he had
been living quietly with his wife II
children in ST. Petersburg all the time.
You know how important this arrest
is" said the chief, kindly; there must
be no slip, but do not forget that Bor-
inski is an INSCRIPTIONS man Of the
most dangerous kind. If your life is in
danger make use Of your revolver, u
try to catch him alive"
He shall not escape us this time,
answered Petroff, quietly, but with a
very determined expression; 'he has
not the slightest idea that his Identity
has been discovered, n l will arrest
him in his own house."
In the evening Petroff mounted the
stairs Of a tenement u near the
Neva. Arrived at the top floor, he
knocked at a door, which vas opened
by a poorly dressed woman, who trem-
bled when she saw him.
"Oh, l thought you were the DOCTOR"
she said, "he promised to call once more
tonight"
II am indeed the doctor, my friend;
your regular physician was suddenly
called away, and asked me to look in
here tonight. How is the patient?"
''The poor child is very SICK" the
woman answered, and led him toward
a door at the end of a narrow hall.
Petroff opened it quickly and went in.
A tall, muscular man who vas sitting
near a bed jumped up with an express
sion of surprise. He had recognized
Petroff as a secret service man, but he
found himself covered by a revolver.
Throw up your hands, Borinski,"
Petroff said, without a trace of emo
ton, the game is up. You are under
arrest"
The nihilist leaned heavily against

The Genuine Oil of lemons.

FTOHl the view IOJh FTeSS.
A dealer in spices down in South
street held up a small bottle filled with
a pale amber liquid. Smell It," he
said, drawing the cork. The visitor
inhaled an odor which seemed to call
up visions OF orange and citron groves
of ancient Greek fame.
ITS the genuine oil of lemons" said
the dealer In response to a look OF In
quiry. That Is all / have left of a
pound OF the oil and II took 1000
lemons TO produce II. Rather expensive
stuff, almost equal to hat of altar OF
roses. The method OF obtaining the oil
Is tedious. A man has a big, dry, clean
sponge before him on a table. He takes
strips of the lemon peel. gives them a
certain twist which breaks the cells
and sends the oil out In a fine spray
on the sponge. He has to work quick

did you ever watch a bartender
hold a piece of lemon peel over a cock
tail and give the peel a sudden, quick
twist? Well, he was then navortnp
the cocktail with oil Of lemon, though
the quantity he extracted was so small
as TO be quite invisible. Imagine doing
that bartender twist until you had col,
lected a quart or SO Of this rare oil"

He had lemon-colored curls and a
nose like a pink button, and his g
was close to four.
He came int the drug store accom-
panied by his mamma, and was lifted on
to a stool at the o water counter.
His mamma ordered two chocolate
dips, and Immediately thereafter the
youngsters face wrinkled amazingly
and he uttered an indignant ''Waw-aw-
avn" His mamma bent Over him.
Make Algie's a chocolate Soda" she
said.
The orders were filled.
"Waw-aw-aw," shrieked the infant.
Again the mother bent down.
"Algie. wants a plated holder for his
glass"
The holder was provided.
"Waw-aw-aw!" howled the little GUS
toner.
"Algie wants a straw" said mamma.
Algie got the straw.
There was a moments silence. dur-
ing which the little angel intently
scowled at the clerk.
What is it, dear?"
"WaW-aw-aW!"
Once more the mother bent down..
"Algie doesn't like your face she
said to the clerk; will you please go
away a little while?"
And the clerk cheerfully went away.

Destructive Theology.

From the London Daily News.
At a chapel in Yorkshire the pulpit
was occupied one Sunday morning by a
minister from a neighboring town. A
few days later the preacher received a
copy of the local weekly paper, and his
attention was drawn to the following
item. The Rev. - supplied the
pulpit at the Congregational church
last Sunday, and the church will now
be closed three weeks for repairs"

upon them usually get rid Of 1t as cas-
lily as they get it.

years is the experience Of Berta Dean, a
little East Side girl, who was brought 70

was three years old. The discovery Of her
talent was made by Mrs. Marion T. D.

room. For z moment she regarded Mrs
Barton wistfully and then blurted out IN
piping tones:

have beautiful things in your life Will you

Then. dropping a low curtsey, she danced
out as quickly and as gracefully as she
had entered. Mrs. Barton investigated
Her discoveries convinced her that Berta s
