A RIGHT.
When He Quit Coffee.

Life Insurance Companies will not
insure a man suffering from heart
trouble.
The reason is obvious.
This is a serious matter to the hus-
band or father who is solicitous for
the future Of his dear ones. Often
the heart trouble Is caused by an un-
expected thing and can be corrected If
taken in time and properly treated. A
man in Colorado writes:
Il was a great coffee drinker for
many years, and was not aware Of the
Injurious effects of the habit till I
became a practical invalid, suffering
from heart trouble, indigestion and
nervousness to an extent that made
mo wretchedly miserable myself and
{. nuisance to those who witnessed NV
sufferings.
81 continued to drink coffee, now
ever, not suspecting that it was the
cause Of my ill-health, till on applying
for life insurance l was rejected on &C.
count of the trouble with my heart.
Then l became alarmed. I found that
leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so
I quit it altogether and having been
attracted by the advertisements of
Postum / began its use.
THE change in my condition was re-
markable. All my ailments vanished.
My digestion was completely restored,
my nervousness disappeared, and,
most important of all, my heart stead.

second examination l was accepted by

BITS OF HISTORY.
BY A. w. Macy.


American independence Born in 1861.
American independence was not born
in l776, as Is commonly believed. 1t
came to manhood then, but it was born
is years before. Not satisfied with the
ordinary processes of law in dealing
with the c~olonists, the English govern
ment resorted to "writs of assistance"
which gave officers the right to enter
and ransack any mans house. Inc
writs were attacked in the courts, and
James Otis. advocate general for the
crown, was called Upon to defend
them. Rather h do so he resigned
his lucrative position, and took the
other side without pay. When the case
came to trial, in February, 1761, the
lawyer for the crown opened with an
elaborate plea for the writs. He was
followed by Otis's fellow counsel, who
made a strong argument against them,
but in moderate terms. Then came
Otis, with q most wonderful speech.
He went beyond the particular legal
question at issue, and took up the
whole matter of the constitutional re-
lations between the colonies and the
mother country. At the bottom lay the
were bound to obey laws they had no
part in making. Otis met the question
bravely, and answered it fatty in the
negative. For five hours he held his
hearers as in a trance, pouring forth
a torrent of eloquence that overwhelm-
ed the opposition like an avalanche.
otis" said John Adams, was a
flame of fire. He hurried all before
him. Every MAJ Of an immense
crowded audience appeared TO me to
go away as I did, ready to take up
arms against writs Of assistance. Then
and there" he adds, the child Inde-
pendence was born. In fifteen years
he grew to manhood and declared him
self free"

Thackeray,s Kindness Heart
Thackeray was the gentlest satir-
list that ever lived. AS editor Of the
,Cornhill he could hardly bring him
self to reject a MS. Tor fear Of hurting
his would-be contributors. The story
of his actually paying for contribu-
lions that he never printed, in order
to conceal the fact that he had reject
EN- them, may be true or false. We do
not remember exactly how the evil
dence points. But even If it be- q
story, such stories are not told Of men
made Of the stern stuff OF the Thack,
cray commonly misknown.

WILD GEESE ARE MoNoeAMlsTs.
prom tha National Marazina

Poetic license was INDUCED in by the
author who wrote mo goose so gray
but sometime, soon or late, she'll find
a courtly gander for a mate" The fact
is. wild geese are monogamists, and
q gander that has lost his mate becomes
an odd one, or in other words, a lone-
some old fellow forever. Sometimes,
but not frequently, a goose will mate
again. but 1t is not common among wild
geese. The rule does not hold, how
eyer. among the domestic fowls.

Three Reoicides in America.

VIXEN Charles l., of England. was
tried "for high crimes n misdemean-
Or" 81 men sat as judges. OF these,
68 signed the death warrant. After
Charles II. became king, the house of
commons ordered that the regicides
be brought to trial. Twenty-four of
them were dead, but they were tried
just the same, and condemned. OF those
living, 90 were tried and condemned to
death. of whom 10 were executed. Six
teen escaped and went into exile. OF
these, three came to America and end
ed their days here. General William
COTE and his fatheTiniaw, General I'd
ward Whalley, lay in hiding at New
Haven for three years. Then they went
to Hadley, Mass, and probably died
there. Colonel John Dixwell, another
regicide, came to New Haven in 1856,
and lived there till his death in 1883.
Time n again the crown officers
searched for these men, but were never
able to find them, owing to the vigil
lance OF their friends. For many years
p hermit living near Narragansett was
believed to be one of the escaped regi-
Gdes, but 1t was never proven.

First Steamship to Cross the Ocean
The first steamship to cross the At
lantic was the Savannah" quilt in
New York and commanded by Cap
tain Moses Rogers. She was a COM
bined sail and steam vessel, "a
full rugged ship Of about $50 tons bur-
den, with a low pressure engine of 30
Or 90-horsepower." She was a fast sail
or, but could make eight knots an hour
with her engine alone. She left Savan-
nah, Ga, (where she was owned) May
rs, 1919. and arrived at Liverpool %
days later. When first sighted she was
reported as a ship on fire and a vessel
was sent to her relief. AS she ap-
preached he city the shipping piers,
roofs Of buildings and all other avail
able spaces were crowded with excited
people, anxious to get a glimpse of
the wonderful ship. She remained rs
days at Liverpool. during which time
many people from London and else
where came to inspect her. She then
visited Copenhagen. Stockholm, ST.
Petersburg and other cities, every
where exciting the wonder and admira-
ton Of thousands. From ST. Peters
burg she returned to Copenhagen, and
then proceeded to Arendal, in Norway.
From the last named place she re-
turned to Savannah, the time reouir.

How One Fat Lord Counted As 10.

WIN SSotIICo SS IUs
The enactment Of the law of habess
corpus marks an important epoch in
the progress Of civil liberty in. Eng
land. and is regarded as one Of the
great achievements Of Charles MS
reign. Charles himself did not want
the law, but just at the time he was
very anxious to curry favor with the
people, and was afraid to oppose SO
popular e measure. The friends and
foes of the act were pretty evenly di-
vided in parliament. but on the final
vote it was carried. The manner Of
its passage, however, was both .omica
and illegal. While the voting was go
ing on a very fat lord arose and
asked hat his vote be recorded in the
affirmative. In a spirit of fun the
clerk announced 10 votes for him. ia
accord with his great size. They vera
80 recorded, and for some unexplained
reason the error" was never corrected
The strangest part Of it is, the ma.
jority for the Measure was less than
10; hence it would have failed of
passage without the fat lords extra
votes. b Is al instance where a
Joke was carried too far to good pur-
pose.

ASKS FIRE ENGINE
FOR EACH SUBURB
Chief Wagner Will Recon-
mend Increase of Fight
ing Apparatus.

Efforts are being made to increase
the fire protection Of the suburbs wher-
ever possible, according to a statement
by Chief Wagner, of the Fire Depart
mnt, today.
Additional protection for Kenilworth.
the scene of the disastrous fire of yes
terday, Is provided for in the District
appropriation bill. which contains an
appropriation of $45.lOO for the extension
of water mains to that section. The ap-
preparation becomes available July l.
Il shall recommend the installation of
a fire engine company in every suburb
supplied with water" said Chief Wag-
ner today, and l nave every reason to
believe the Commissioners will follow
my recommendations.
Where there is no water, such as Is
the case at Kensington, theoonly pro-
lection that can be offered is a chemi-
cal engine. Kenilworth has two chemi-
Gals, but with fire of large proportions
such apparatus affords little protection"
