THE TEA PENALTY.
a Strong Mans Experience.

Writing from busy railroad town
the wife of an employe of one of the
great roads says:
MY husband is railroad man who
has been so much benefited by the use
of Postum that he wishes me to ex-
press his thanks to you for the good
it has done him. His waking hours
are taken up with his work, and he
has no time to write himself.
"He has been great tea drinker
all his life and has always liked it
strong.
Tea has, of late years, acted on
him like morphine does upon most
people. At first It soothed him, but
only for an hour or so, then 1t began
to affect his nerves to such an extent
that he could not sleep at night, and
he would go to his work in the morn
ing wretched and miserable from the
loss of rest. This condition grew con-
stantly worse. until his friends per-
suaded him, some four months ago, to
quit tea and use Postum.
at first he used Postum only for
breakfast, but as he liked the taste OF
II. and it somehow seemed to do him
good, he added It to his evening meal.
Then, as he grew better, he began to
drink it for his noon meal, and now
he will drink nothing else at table.
"His condition is so wonderfully i'm
proved that he could not be hired to
give up Postum and go back to tea.
His nerves have become steady and
reliable once more, and his sleep Is
easy, natural and refreshing.
He owes all this to Postum, for he
has taken no medicine and made no
other change in his diet.
His brother. who was very nervous
from coffee-drinking. was persuaded
by us to give up the coffee and use
Postum and he also has recovered his
health and strength" Name given by

A Significant Coincidence.

Last week at Madison, Wisconsin,
there was very unusual happening.
Two Governors spoke on the same
day and at the same hour. One was
Governor Woodrow Wilson of New
Jersey; the other was Governor w.
R. Stubs of Kansas. One is Demo-
crat; the other a Republican. Both
addressed themselves to the great is
sues Of today. Both impressed their
audiences with the gravity of the sit
uation and with the vital necessity
of curling the forces Of Blind Bour-
bonism quickly and righteously, lest
our problem wax even greater.
Here is what Governor Wilson said
in concluding his speech:
eve have come to a parting of the
ways; to choose the wrong way
would be fatal. We cannot postpone
the day of adjustment, because if we
postpone it we come to such point
Of passion that it cannot be justly
effected. We must undertake it now
while we are calm and when we can
come to a fair settlement"
Now consider the concluding words
of Governor Stubs address:
II am here" he said, to tell you
that if we do not soon take this gov
eminent away from the politicians
and their interests that are laying
their hard tribute upon us, and if
we leave this issue unsettled fol-
those who come after us to wrestle
with, the next generation will pay
grievously for our neglect Of a most
pressing duty"
The spirit of progress cannot b
confined by party lines. Privilege
and standpatism never have been S,
confined. The Democratic Johnston
and the Republican Penrose whispe
together to defeat tariff revision 70
the consumers benefit. The Demo
cratic Wilson and the Republica
Stubs, in different halls, voice i
unison the same warning that tn
\ free and just expression of the wi
of people must not be longe
thwarted.-La Follette's Magazine.

1 Shifting the Scenes.

The fortnight passing has disclos-
ed some curious. political events. i
is evident that behind the scenes Of
big politics the stage hands are get
ting up the canvass for big set-aa
kind Of transformation scene. The
BIG bedizened newspapers maintained
BADLY for the guilty joy Of high fin
ance are preparing to ditch President
Taft.
The New York Sun which shines
in the reflected glory Of Morgan has
been telling the truth about the aus
tere funeral character Of the Taft
meetings and editorially the Sun and
other organs Of its class have been
clawing the President politely yet
viciously. The interview with Vice
President Sherman la st Sunday
morning in which he is quoted as
saying that the California election
indicates how far Taft is out Of
sympathy with the people, is inter
lesting. It is the follow-up circular
Of the Wall Street newspaper cam
paign. Wall Street sees that Taft
cannot win. Wall Street fears Will
! son. Big business will dump Taft
mercilessly. 1t seems to fear that
Taft's weakness means the success
of LaFollette unless something is
! done to outplay the La Toilette senti-
| ment. What the game is, no one this
side of the curtain knows. But the
scene shutters are busy. Perhaps a
new candidate will appear, some fine
unimpeachable, dignified candidate
like Seth Low, President Butler of
Columbia, Senator Lodge or Senator
Burton Of Ohio. Big business could
steal the South from Taft and Hitch
cock getting southern convention
delegates from Hitchcock through
the Southern railroads owned by the
men who are jabbing the President
in their newspapers-will be like tax
ing candy from a blind child.
With the South gone, Taft's re-
nomination will be impossible. La
Toilette will carry the West. Nothing
can stop that. Wall Street knows it.
Wall Streets feet are so cold that
it's toes clink! That's why it is
dumping Taft and preparing for
some new political maneuver. La
Toilette sentiment is growing. The
Taft grip has proved that he cannot
regain the peoples confidence that
he does not know their language,
that he cannot hold their allegiance.
tSomething must be done to stop La
Follette's rise as Taft sinks. Some
| thing will be done. The scurrying
| feet Of the stage hands behind the
curtain fortell coming events. The
lpeople will watch the rising curtain
on the next act with interest and
deep concern; for it is the drama of
popular rights. The act closing is a
most ]amentable comedy. The next
act will reveal the plot.-William AL
len White.

Common Sense.

The success of every undertaking
depends largely to man behind. Bust
ness success today is not like Of old,
but study Of economics. The cost
of living has driven the retailer to
more careful study Of how and where
to buy. The man who knows how to
buy right, can surely deal out to his
trade, better quality at lower prices.
With this point in view, we are 60
ing to give the people Of Willmar,
better quality at lower prices. Not
the cheapest, but good goods cheap.
Come and inspect our new ship

Of the dandiest things you have seen.
