Canton Downs VermilliOn.

The Canton high school basket
ball team played the hottest, the
snappiest and fastest game they ever
pleyed when they did up the Vermill-
ion cham pions last Friday night with
a score 81 to 81 in their favor. The
referee was square and prompt and
made each team toe the scratch with
out a grumble. He knew his business
and both teams soon learned he was
master. Yes, it was a %sizzler, and both
teams went in to win or die on the
breastworks.
Vermillion did up Canton at Yer
million recently and the Canton boys
said they couldn't do it again and
they didn't, and that accounts for
the vim and vinegar, grape nuts and
grease spots scattered all over the
flour. Two of the players Rugged
each other so hard that their hair
smoked and they were given a chance
to cool off lest the building might
burn.
Oh, my. but it was fun. Those
that missed seeing that game lost $40
worth of amusement and five pounds
Of fat. Talk about your Spartan
youth and heroes of old. They're
not in it a minute when Vermillion
and Canton get after the ball. 1t
was a clean game Notwithstanding
the amount of electricity each boy
carried under his modest shirt, and
nothing interrupted the buzzsaw
performance only the hugging match
which made many of the young ladies
nervous.
Prof. WOODBURY. and other hackers
of the Canton team think the boys
will be world beaters. The referee
who made both teams do business was
Mr.. Feay, formerly of Rock Rapids,
but now of Dayton township, and a
former star player at Morningside
College.

Louis Christopher heads the list
of paid in advance subscribers to
the LEADER. He called Tuesday
and threw down a handsome new five
dollar bill and said, "give me credit
for that" and Louis can read the
LEADER to October 80, 1912 without
consulting the date on the address
slip. Agood many enthusiastic friends
of the LEADER, like Brother Reierson,
have paid up to January 1912, and a
few beyond that date, but to Mr..
Christopher belongs the honor Of
heading the paid in advance list. He
is a progressive farmer and lives on
the old homested his father filed
upon in 1868.

1T was hard to drop Mocha and

nerves were SO shattered that I vas
a nervous wreck and of course that
means all kinds of ails.
"At first l thought bicycle riding
caused it and l gave it up, but my con-
dition remained unchanged. l did not
want to acknowledge coffee caused the
trouble for l was very fond of it. At
that time a friend came to live with
us, and I noticed that after he had
been with us a week he would not
drink his coffee any more. Iasked him
the reason. He replied. I have not had
a headache since l left off drinking cof-
fee, some months ago, till last week,
when l began again, here at your table.
I don't see how anyone can like coffee,
anyway, after drinking Postum!'
II said nothing, but at once ordered
a package of Postum. That was five
months ago., and we have drank no
coffee since, except on two occasions
when we had company, and the result
each time was hat my husband could
not sleep, but lay awake and tossed
and talked half the night. We were
convinced that coffee caused his suffer-
ing, SO he returned to Postum, con
WINGED that coffee was an enemy, in
stead of a friend, and he is troubled
no more with insomnia.
