Custom of the Middle Ages.

It was in the middle ages that
covers were first put over dishes; that
was to prevent poisoning. The serv-
ants had to taste the viands before
the guests partook of them, to insure
the safety of the latter, and it was a
sign of inferiority of position to eat
of any Wand which had not first been
tasted, The person who did that was
practically assuming the status of a

said that part of this significance is in
a religious sense and part is in a spec
tacular sense. 1t is not the special
music and the flowers which make for
the latter so much as the disposition
on the part of large share OF the
public to seize the opportunity to get
a glimpse at close range of the presi-
dent of the United States.
AS has been said the president at
tends church service almost every
Sunday morning in the year. but there
is no certainty as to his appearance,
nor. on the ordinary Sabbath, does the
president invariably attend the church
of which he is a member. Indeed not
infrequently the chief executive ac-
cepts an invitation to worship with
some congregation of another de-
nomination, IL the occasion be a spe-
cial one of any kind On Easter Sun
day. however. the president goes to
his own church and only the most
exceptional circumstances interfere
with his attendance at the morning
service. Knowing this. throngs gather
at the church. whereas a good sized
crowd is sure to follow the president
all tne way from tne Wh1te House
gates to the church.
AS was the case during the Roose-
velt administration. the president and
his wife are adherents OF different re-
ligious denominations and hold mem
bership in different churches in Wash
ington. President Taft comes of a
Unitarian family. his father and
mother both being Unitarians and his
grandmother having Joined the Uni

LITTLE THING
Changes the Home Feeling.

Coffee blots out the sunshine from
many a home by making the mother,
or some other member of the house
hold, dyspeptic, nervous and irritable.
There are thousands of cases where
the proof is absolutely undeniable.
Here is one.
A Wis. mother writes:
"I was taught to drink coffee at an
early age, and also at an early age be-
came a victim to headaches, and as l
grew to womanhood these headaches
became part Of me, as was scarcely
ever free from them.
About five years ago friend urged
me to try Postum. l made the trial
and the result was so satisfactory that
we have used 1t ever since.
MY husband and little daughter
were subject to bilious attacks, but
they have both been entirely free from
them since we began using Postum in
stead of coffee. / no longer have
headaches and my health is perfect"
If some of these tired. nervous, ir-
ritable women would only leave off
coffee absolutely and try Postum they
would find a wonderful change in their
life. 1t would then be filled with sun
shine and happiness rather than weari'
ness and discomfort. And think what
an effect it would have on the family
for the mood of the mother is largely
responsible for the temper Of the chill

Follow this advice.

Quaker Oats is the best of all foods;
1t is also the cheapest. When such
men as Prof. Fisher of Yale University
and Sir James Crichton Browne,
LID, FRS. of London spend the
best part of their lives in studying
the great question of the nourishing
and Strengthening qualities of differ
ent foods, it is certain that their ad-
vice is absolutely safe to follow.
Professor Fisher found in his ex-
periments for testing the strength and
endurance of athletes that the meat
eaters were exhausted long before the
men who were fed on such food as
Quaker Oats. The powers of endur-
ance of the non-meat eaters were
about eight times those of the meat
eaters.
