KNOWS NOW
Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Case
For a Time.

It's easy to understand how ordi'
nary people get fooled by coffee when
doctors themselves sometimes forget
the facts.
A physician speaks of his own expe-
rience:
q had used coffee for years and really
did not exactly believe it was injuring
me although 1 had palpitation of the
heart every day. (Tea contains caf-
feine-the same drug found in coffee
and is lust as harmful as cofee.)
FINALLY one day a severe and al
most fatal attack of heart trouble
frightened me and I gave up both tea
and coffee. using Postum instead, and
since that time l have had absolutely
no heart palpitation except on one or
two occasions when l tried a small
quantity of coffee, which caused severe
Irritation and proved to me l must let
it alone.
when we began using Postum IL
seemed weak-that was because we
did not make it according to directions
but now we put little bit OF but
ter in the pot when boiling and allow
the Postum TO boil full 10 minutes
which gives it the proper rich flavor
and the deep brown color.
81 have advised a great many OF
my friends and patients to leave OIL
coffee and drink Postum, in fact daily
give this advice" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Many thousands of physicians use
Postum in place of tea and coffee in
their own homes and prescribe it to
patients.
There's a reason" and it is explain
ed in the little book, The Road to
MELVILLE" in pkgs.
Ever read the above Ietters A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full OF human
interest.

Ask Better Rural Teachers.

If the rural schools of Wisconsin
are to keep progress with other lines
of thought and development, three
things must be done Immediately,
says the report of the committee of
fifteen which has been studying this
subject for two years. Secretary w.
E. Larson announced the findings of
the committee as follows:
Country schools must have better
trained teachers, with sufficient salary
to keep them in the work.
Consolidation of rural schools
should be brought about wherever
feasible and the work of the country
schools should be extended so that the
child can get an education adapted to
its needs.
Social center work should be en-
couraged in country districts: meet
ings should be held to discuss rural
problems and thus build up an intelli.
gent sentiment in every community.

State Banks Showing Good.


With two more banks reporting

abstract of the condition of 5S4 state
banks as shown in their statements at
close of business April II discloses
gratifying conditions, resources hav-
ing increased more than 100000 in
the two months Loans and discounts
have grown to the extent of nearly
100000, while deposits, except on
demand certificate, show a wholesome
increase. In fact not an unfavorable
feature appears in the showing, and
with total resources of nearly $780,
100000 the financial institutions of
the state make remarkable showing
of Wisconsin stability in its financial
affairs.

VIII Not insure CAPITOL.

Contrary to the policy followed by
most states, the state of Wisconsin
will not insure it's $6,000,000 capitol,
now under construction, through pri-
vate companies. The policy of insur
ing the statehouse, university build
ings, the state asylums and other pub
lie institutions by a deficiency fund
process rather than by private COM
panies was instituted during the reign
of Governor La Toilette and has been
continued by his successors. The old
capitol burned in 1904 and left a de-
felt of 100000 in the fire insurance
fund.
Most states would probably have
abandoned such an experiment with an
apparently disastrous law, but Wis
consin chose to cling to this principle,
and the accommodations of subge-
quent years have wiped out the deficit
The state charges itself less than 60
per cent. of the premiums of the New
York fire insurance companies, and is
so satisfied with its experience that
in 1911 by an act of the legislature it
extended the privilege of the insur-
ance fund to counties, while cities and
school districts are asking that they
be privileged to enjoy its advantages.
