Lodqina House Measure.

Representative Bruce of Cincinnati
put in his lodging house bill and has
the Massachusetts ballot bill almost
ready. The lodging house bill, mod
eled on the New York law, requires
a register in all lodging houses. Lodg-
all dodgers on the first registration
day. The registration blanks would
be enlarged to provide additional col
umns for the place of last registra-
ton, occupation and personal descrip-
ton. The bill also would make it
easier to trace false registrations and
prevent illegal voting

VIII Go After Salary Loans.

Not altogether satisfied with the
slap taken at loan agencies in the bill
of Representative Bertsch, Senator
Haas introduced a drastic measure
against those who loan money on
wages or salaries. If it is enacted
into law they might as we'll gather in
their loose coin and seek more fer
tile field. Bertsch wants cities to run
pawn shops. 1t provides that persons
or firms which want to go into the
business of lending money on, or pur-
chasing salaries or wage earnings,
shall first take out a license from
the secretary of state. The cost is
to be $3.50 year. The lender must
give the borrower a card on which is
printed the names of both, the amount
of the loan and the interest charged.
Eight per cent. shall be the maximum
and the amount of the wage must not
be assigned in blank. Another sec
ton reads: "If the borrower is mar.
ried, the contract shall be void, un'
less it also contains the name of the
husband or wife OF the borrower.

To ARRANGE Flowers.

Here are five golden rules which
should be observed by those who often
arrange flowers. Use plenty of foliage.
Put your flowers in very lightly. Use
artistic glasses. Do not put more than
two or, at the most, three different
kinds of flowers in one decoration.
Arrange your colors to form bold
contrast or. better still, soft har-
mony. The aim of the decorator should
be to show off the fiowers-not the
vases that contain them; therefore the
simpler ones are far preferable to
even the most elaborate. Glasses for
a dinner table should be either white.
a delicate shade of green. or rose col

EASY CHANGE
When Coffee Is Doing Harm.

A lady writes from the land Of cot
ton of the results of four years use
of the food beverage-hot Postum.
Ever since can remember We had
used coffee three times day. 1t had
more or less injurious effect upon
us all, and / myself suffered almost
death from indigestion and nervous
ness caused by 1t.
II know 1t was that, because when
/ would leave 1t of for few days I
would feel better. But 1t was hard to
give it up, even though realized how
harmful 1t was to me.
'At last l found a perfectly easy
way to make the change. Four years
ago abandoned the coffee habit and
began to drink Postum, and also in
fluenced the rest of the family to do
the same. Even the children are al
lowed to drink 1t freely as they do
water. And 1t has done us all great
good
Il no longer suffer from Indigestion,
and my nerves are in admirable tone
since l began to use Postum. We
never use the old coffee any more.
I'VE appreciate Postum as de-
ightful and healthful beverage, which
not only invlgorates but supplies the
best of nourishment as WELL" Name
