 A New York hotel man says: Each time after drinking coffee I became restless, nervous and excited, so that was unable to sit five minutes in one place, was also inclined to vomit and suffer from loss of sleep, which got worse and worse.
 "A lady said that perhaps coffee was the cause of my trouble, and suggested that I try Postum. I laughed at the thought that coffee hurt me, but she insisted so hard that I finally had some Postum made. I have been us- ing it in place of coffee ever since, for I noticed that all my former nervous ness and irritation disappeared. be- gan to sleep perfectly, and the Postum tasted as good or better than the old coffee, so what was the use of stick ing to beverage that was injuring me?
 "One day on an excursion up the country I remarked to young lady friend on her greatly improved appear ance. She explained that some time before she had quit using coffee and taken to Postum. She had gained a number of pounds and her former pal pitation of the heart, humming in the ears, trembling of the hands and legs and other disagreeable feelings had disappeared. She recommended me to quit coffee and take Postum and was very much surprised to find thst had already made the change.
 "She said her brother had also re- ceived great benefits from leaving off coffee and taking on Postum.' ? There's 8 reason"

Let no one think this wholly a pious

OF course; politics and religion are In
separable In the near east Whether
the Balkan states Will secure added
territory or not remains TO be seen
Doubtless they will carry their con-
tention that the reforms In MSedonla

ers. even as was done In the Lebanon
after Moslem outrages. The Chris
tians in the east point TO the Lebayon
district In Syria, region made wide

pilgrimages to this scene OF Bible
history, and they say that evQj as
Lebanon has won To safety and pros
perity under Christian governor
supported by the powers, so Mace
donia will come to her own only when
the haind OF Turkey Ia lifted from her.
Certainly the instance OF Lebanon Is
good illustration. Within the bor-
ders OF Lebanon the houses are large.
the farms are fertile, the roads are
reasonably good, and prosperity and
peace are everywhere apparent
Directly outside the Lebanon the pow
erty and squalor which characterize
Turkey generally may be found.
Pan slavlsm . Factor.
The religious tie OF the Balkan
states is strengthened by the racial
tie. for as one diplomat said, Pan
slavism Is As real an issue as pan
Islamisin." Russia has been steadily
at work strengthening the conscious
ness OF these Balkan peoples OF their
religious identity with her and OF
their racial identity with her. The
many enthusiastic Christians In the
Balkans thought that Russia would
at this time make common cause with
the nations to whom she has taught
the art OF war in driving Turkey from
the Bosphorus. That Is not yet to
be. II is perfectly apparent, however,
that the centuries-old religious con-
fiict between the crescent and tho
cross, which has been Economically
chronicled In hundreds OF books, Is
still waging with It's old herceness
and making news today that earns
first-page position on the daily news
papers.

Thus the Moslem often gets into
his power the Individual Christian:
he discriminates against him in bust
