The Weekly" carefully eliminates from

His eye is not of the shifty kind OBJ

critics. On the witness stand Mr.. Post
looks quietly but very steadily straight in
to the eyes of the haggling, twisting law

barreled questions and bulldoze and con-
fuse witness.
The "dodging' it seems consisted Of
replying, Il don't know"

The attorney sought by every art to
impress the Jury WITH the fact that Mr..

relation to the body branded him as I'M

The following is quoted from one OF
the questions:-
(The lawyer reading from the book.)
'HThe writer of these pages desires to
say nothing of himself other than as
simple instrument through which the Oh.

by precept and example.

in due time. We suggest the reader look
for it.
Prevarication No. 8. "Post spends
nearly a million year in advertising and
relies on that to keep ont of the news
papers the dangerous nature of the fraud
he is perpetrating on the public"
The Postum Company does pay out up
wards of million a year for trade an
nouncements. Newspaper men believe our
statements truthful or they would not
print theIc. Large numbers OF newspa-
per men use our products.
They are capable of telling the public
whether on not We "bribeo them.
It may have escaped notice that we
did not "bribe" that particular weekly.
No. states that the amount of the
verdict viii 'tbe devoted by the weekly
to exnosing fraud.1
This is almost real humor.
We have two suits pending against the
weekly" total. $500 10000.
We haven't devoted the sum to any
particular purpose yet.

These self-appointed critics do make
some Imaginable blunders through ignor-
ance, but-be patient.
Item n is an illustration of the squirnl-
ing and twisting of the sensational writer
delivering distorted matter to his read
ers.
While on the witness stand Mr.. Post
testified to his studies in Anatomy, Physi
ology, Dietetics and Psychological re-
lating to the preparation and digestion of
food. Asked to name authorities studied
he mentioned six or eight from memory,
and commented on some clinical expe-
rience covering several years in annual
journeys to Europe.
Now notice the distortion. Copy from
the printed eriticism.)

swered Post.
The attorney 'tpicked up book after
book from the pile and showed the title

been published since 1896"
This is an example of distortion and
false eoloring to produce an unfavorable
impression.
The facts are Mr.. Post purposely intro
duced the latest editions that could be
obtained of prominent authorities to prove
by them the truth of his statements re

WARNING AGAINST
THE PSEUDOCOCCUS
Shade Tree Commission Tells
Of Foe to Maple Trees.

The Morristown Shade Tree com
mission has issued the following
warning to the citizens regarding an
insect injurious to the maple trees: -
The Morristown Shade Tree com
mission respectfully requests the CO.
operation of the land owners and
land holders of Morristown and vicin-
ity in its efforts against the maple
pseudococcus, which is quite preva-
lent. The insect winters in the part
ly grown condition, hiding in the
erevices of the bark, and not until
after midsummer does it become
abundant enough to attract attention.
The Shade Tree commission has been
necessarily confined in its efforts to
sreet and road rees and unable to
reach the trees of private owners.
Its labors. therefore, on the public
Uees have been to some extent in
effectual because of the diseased con-
dition of the trees on adjacent prop
erty. To make the efforts of this
commission of any benefit it is essen
tial that we have the hearty co-opera-
tion of property owners. AT this sea-
son of the year as the infested leaves
drop to the ground they should be
regularly raked up and burned. This
should be done op private ground,
as it is understood that Morristown
ordinance exists prohibiting the burn
ing of leaves in the streets. The in
tested leaves are now falling and
should receive the attention above
suggested. it being the surest remedy
against this pest; the common prac-
tice of whitewashing the trees is in
effectual
THE above applies only to hard
naples. Late in the summer the
trunks and some times the branches
of the hard naples become covered
with white cottony or waxy sub
stances beneath which will be found
yellowish. crawling, grub like crea-
lures. These some time increase so
greatly in number that they form
veritable layers, coating the trunks
completely and extending to the
leaves. When the latter are af-
fected they are apt to turn yellow and
drop so that in severe cases the tree
becomes partly defoliated earlier in
the season than is normal.
ANY further information on this
matter can be obtained by card di
rected to the Morristown Shade Tree
commission"

When Boonton town was separated

So commendable was his work, so
satisfactorily the performance of his

twice since without opposition and
