OF The Rockford Morning Star.

about seven years ago ceased
drinking coffee to give your Postum q
trial.
II had suffered acutely from various
forms of indigestion and my stomach
had become so disordered as to repel
almost every sort Of substantial food.
My general health was bad. At close
intervals would suffer severe attacks
which confined me in bed for week
or more. Soon after changing from
coffee to Postum the indigestion
abated, and in short time ceased
entirely. l have continued the daily
use OF your excellent Food Drink and
assure you most cordially that am
indebted to you for the relief it has
brought me.
Wishing you a continued success. ]
am Yours very truly.

OF course, when mans health
shows he can stand coffee without
trouble, let him drink 1t, but most
highly organized brain-workers sim
ply cannot.
The drugs natural to the coffee Der.
~ affect the stomach and other organs
and thence to the complex nervous
system. throwing 1t out Of balance and
producing disorders in various parts
Of the body. Keep up this daily pois-
oning and serious disease generally
supervenes. So when man or woman
finds that coffee IL a smooth but dead
ly enemy and health is Of any value
at all, there is but one road-Quit.
It is easy to find out If coffee be the
cause of the troubles. for II left OH 10
days and Postum be used in its place
and the sick and diseased conditions
begin to disappear, the proof is UNI
answerable.
Postum is not good II made by short
boiling. It must be boiled full IL min
utes after boiling begins, when the
crisp flavor and the food elements are
brought out of the grains and the bev.
erage is ready to fulfill its mission OF
palatable comfort and renewing the
cells and nerve centers broken down
by coffee.

A REMARKABLE SHOWING.

In one or two instances newspa-
pers which favor Governor Eberhart
in his announced intention of forget
ting his Brainerd pledge, if he can,
have tried to discount the Duluth
Evening Herald's poll of the news
papers of Minnesota relative to their
opinion as to the desirability of CAL
ling an extra session of the legisla-
ture. In this effort it has been point
ed out that although the Herald re-
ceived answers from 219 newspapers
there are in the state 80 daily, 5
semi-weekly, 621 weekly, IL semi
monthly, so monthly, 2 bi-monthly
and one quarterly publications.
In reply to this the Herald speaks
for itself in the following language:
"Here are a few facts, aside from
the fact that the canvass is yet in
complete, many comments being re-
served for future publication, that
have been overlooked.
"According to Ayers directory of
newspapers, there are in Minneapo-
lis, St. Paul and Duluth alone al
publications. A scant dozen of these
were included in The Herald's can
vass, because it did not canvass the
city daily press, the trade press, the
religious press, the society publica-
tions and the horde of other publica-
tions-not newspapers at al1-which
are put out in these three cities.

tions, scattered all over the state

In anticipation of the social events

of the fashionable establishments for
their wealthy and fastidious patrons.
One of the shops made most charm
ing little dinner dance frock after a
model by Drecell. This frock has a
petticoat of lace founces, very scant-

chiffon. The lightness of this skirt
may be imagined. Above it falls a
tunic with side pieces reaching down
as far as the knees. This tunic, of
palest blue velvet, is scalloped at the
bottom and edged with silver fringe,
and looks much like one of the lam
brequins which used to be draped ov-
er marble mantlepieces when the lat
ter were considered unsightly. At
the edge of the blue velvet tunic is a
festoon design of appliqued roses in
pink and silver. The bodice is made

waist under one big pink and silver
rose. The sash of this frock-a fold

pump bows almost at the natural
waist line. J, In fact, many Of the
new evening frocks show tendency
toward lower waist line.
Purple is undoubtedly one of the
most fashionable colors of the mo-
ment. 1t is used for entire costume
or in combination with other colors
as trimming and appears in great
variety of shades. A very handsome
model of winter gown; shown in
one of the fashionable shops, was of
plum purple with a straight narrow
skirt trimmed below the knees with
a deep fold of the material piped
with black satin. There were two
swinging panels at the back. which
gave a broad effect across the waist
at the back. This, by the way, is
one of the dominant features of this
winters styles, and will be seen on
every kind of gown.
The coat was quite large and did
not follow the slim, straight lines
that all the tailors made conspicuous
last summer. It had black satin
cord across the back, a little above
the natural waist, which held the
material in, and a peplum, or lower
part, which fitted the hips snugly
and reached half way to the knees
There were two buttons to fasten it
above the waist line in front, and a
voluminous collar, square across the
back and running to points at the
waist. The material was French
gray broadcloth, finished off with a
band of the material, and with an
Egyptian design in tubular black
braid in the middle of the back

course, included in The Herald's can

"Practically every. daily newspa-
per, too, publishes a weekly edition,
so that there is a larger duplication
there. Add to these the regrettably
large number of newspapers in the
state which seldom or never print
editorial opinions, and it will be
found that the list of newspapers
that have spoken ON the extra ses-
sion idea is already pretty thorough
ly representative. And there are
more to come" -.
In the opinion of the Pioneer the
showing made by the Herald was re-
markable because of the almost un-
animous demand from all parts of
the state by representative newspa-
pers. 1t will take some tall figur-
ing for extra session opponents to
discount the unanimous demand of
219 newspapers. But no one can
blame them for trying to figure. 1t

BETTER LAWS NEEDED.

! BETTER LAWS NEEDED.
The report covering the official ac-
tivity of the immi migration authorities
on Ellis Island during the year which
ended on June 80, 1911, has been is
sued and presents interesting infor-
nation and material for thought. In
the year covered by the report 49,
642 aliens were inspected at the Port
of New York. Of these 6O5,3S4 were
promptly admitted on first inspec-
tion. the remainder being detained
for special inquiry. The deportations
during the year numbered 14,5OO, of
whom 1900 were aliens who after
entry had been found to be here in
violation of the law.
immigration Commissioner Will
liams in his report points out the
fact that the laws in regard to i'm
migration are not sufficient to en-
able the immigration authorities to
prevent the entry of certain unde-
sirable aliens who, for the best in
terests of this country, should be pre-
vented from landing. In many cases,
the Commissioner maintains, a great
deal of trouble and difficulty could
/be avoided if the steamship agents in
foreign ports showed greater care
and discrimination in accepting pas
sengers. This is shown by the fact
that in some months the exclusions
were fully three per cent of the ar
rivals.
How difficult it is for the immi-
grafton authorities in many cases to
prevent the entry Of undesirable per-
sons is illustrated by a recent case.
Ten years ago young man came to
this country from Austria. He sue
ceeded in his vocation. and, after a
few years was married. A short time
ago he received a letter from his for
mer home in Austria, informing him
that his sister, who was only seven
years old when he emigrated to the
United States, would come to Ameri-
ca to live with him. In due time a
girl who claimed to be the young
mans sister, arrived at Ellis Island
and the young man, deceived by the
girls statements and a family re-
semblance in her features, recognized
her as his sister, whereupon she was
permitted to land.
A few days after the girl had ar
rived the young man learned that
she was not his sister but a distant
relative and that he had been made
a tool to procure the admission of
the girl to the United States. He
and his wife also ascertained that the
girl had been shipped across the
ocean on account of her delicate con-
dition and the fear of disgrace. The
young man and his wife made the
girl leave their house, but sent here
to boarding house and paid her
board for one month. Then they no.
titled Commissioner Williams and the
latter is now making an investiga-
tion to determine what power he has
under the law in this peculiar case.
