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 l can remember we had
used coffee three times day. 1t had
a more or less injurious effect upon
us all, and l myself suffered almost
death from indigestion and nervous
ness caused by it.
L know it was that, because when
I would leave it off for a few days I
would feel better. But it was hard to
give it up, even though l realized how
harmful it was to me-
AT last l found a perfectly easy
way to make the change. Four years
ago I 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 it freely as they do
water. And it 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.
We appreciate Postum as a de-
1ghtful and healthful beverage, which
not only invigorates but supplies the
best of nourishment as WE'LL" Name

directly for the staircase, and part
way up he turned off to the right

nitude of the room we stood in, and
revealed also a brass candle-stick by
the open fireplace, candle-stick al
most four feet high, supporting can

was Hotchkiss who discovered that

the match to it and peered at it over

ventured, moving little nearer to the
circle of light. A gust of wind came
on it's side and threatened demise.
There was something almost ridicu-
lous in the haste with which we put
down the window and nursed the
flicker to life.
The peculiarly ghost-like appearance
of the room added to the uncanniness
of the situation. The furniture was
swathed in white covers for the win
ter; even the pictures wore shrouds.
And in niche between two windows
a bust on a pedestal, similarly
wrapped, one arm extended under it's
winding sheet, made a most life-like
ghost, if any ghost can be life-like.
In the light of the candle we sur
veyed each other, and we were OBJ
jects for mirth. Hotchkiss was taking
off his sodden shoes and preparing to
make himself comfortable, while
hung my muddy raincoat over the
ghost in the corner. Thus habited, he
presented a rakish but distinctly more
comfortable appearance.
when these people built" Hotch-
kiss said, surveying the huge dimen-
sions of the room, "they must have
bought a mountain and built all over
it. What a room!"
1t seemed TO be living room, al
though Hotchkiss remarked that it
was much more like dead one. 1t
was probably so feet long and 25 feet
wide. It was very high, too, with a
domed ceiling, and gallery ran
around the entire room, about Is feet
above the floor. The candle light did
not penetrate beyond the dim out
lines of the gallery rail, but l fancied
the wall there hung with smaller pic
lures.
Hotchkiss had discovered a fire laid
in the enormous fireplace, and in a
few minutes we were steaming before
a cheerful blaze. Within the radius
of it's light and heat, we were COM
Portable again. But the brightness
merely emphasized the gloom of the
ghostly corners. We talked in sub
dued tones, and l smoked box of
Russian cigarettes which / found in
a table drawer. We had decided to
stay all night, there being nothing
else to do. / suggested a game OF
double-dummy bridge, but did not
urge it when my companion asked If
it resembled euchre. Gradually, as
the ecclesiastical candle paled in the
freight, we grew drowsy. / drew a
divan into the cheerful area and
