SHE QUIT COFFEE.
And Much Good Came From 1t.

It is hard to believe that coffee will
put a person in such a condition as it
did a woman of Apple Creek, o. She
tells her own story.
81 did not believe coffee caused my
trouble, and frequently said / liked it
so well / would not quit drinking it,
even if it took my life, but l was a
miserable sufferer from heart trouble
and nervous prostration for four years.
Il was scarcely able to be around
at all. Had no energy and did not
care for anything. Was emaciated and
had a constant pain around my heart
until I thought / could not endure it.
| felt as though l vas liable to die any
time.
Frequently I had nervous chills and
the least excitement would drive sleep
away, and any little noise would upset
me terribly. / was gradually getting
worse until finally, one day, it anne
over me and Iasked myself what is the
use of being sick all the time and buy
ing medicine so that / could indulge
myself in coffee?
$50 l thought I would see ii / could
quit drinking coffee, and got some
Postum to help me quit. ! made it
strictly according to directions and L
want to tell you that change was the
greatest step in my life. 1t was easy
to quit coffee because I had the Postum
which / like better than / liked cof-
fee. One by one the old troubles left,
until now I am in splendid health,
nerves stendy, heart all right and the
pain all gone. Never have any more
nervous chilIs, don't nave any medi-
cine. can do all my Eousework and
have done a great deal besides.
my sist1r-in-Iaw, who visited me
this summer, had been an invalid for
some time, much as / was. ! got her
to quit coffee and drink Postum. She
gained FIVE pounds in three weeks,
and I saw such a change in
anyone's health"

one appears from tins to time. They

EVENING SCHOOL
AT "Y' CLOSED
EVENING SCHOOL or Y. M. c. A.
CLOSED LAST NIGHT WITT So
cTAL HOUR SPENT BY STU
pENTs-scHooL PROCLAIMED
GREAT SUCCESS THIS YEAR.

Last evening representatives Of the
various classes Of the x. M. G. A.
evening school met for a social hour.
This marked the close Of the school
for this year. After the automobile
class had returned from the shop,
where their pictures had been taken,
all gathered in the gymnasium for a
good time. Various stunts were pulled
off, among others were the pillow
fight, hand-wrestling and many others
which would be d~if1cult to describe.
About 8 o'clock when all had re-
ceived enough exercise to produce a
good appetite, the fellows went up
stairs where an informal luncheon
was served. This included ginger cake,
doughnuts, sweetmilk and other good
things. After a few remarks by MI.
Pixler, the educational director, the
fellows ~disbanded all feeling that the
evening had been pleasantly spent.
The school this year has been well
attended and the classes have done
splendid work. A number of the stu
dents have already expressed a desire
to continue their work for another
year and it is to be hoped that all may
be cared for.

TRAINS PLOWED
THROUGH WATER

Williston, N. d., April 6,-Practi-
cally the entire country from Hav-e,
Mont, to WilIiston is under water rs
a result of the breaking up Of the Mis-
souri, river and it's tributary, the Milk
river.
In many places the water is report
ed as being several feet deep INT near
ly all of the towns along the line are
under at least a foot of water.
With a report that could be heard
for a long distance, the great ice jam
at Williston went out about noon
Thursday. Several little boys were
near the river at the time and they are
reported to have narrowly escaped
with their lives when the river jumped
it's banks and the loebergs leaped
down the stream.
A small house is said to have been
sent whirling down the river at Will
liston.
Numbers of cattle and horses are
today fioundering about in the water
IN the prairie.
Railroad officials from Havre and
Williston are on the scene m every
p~recaution is being made to get the
passenger trains through in safety.
In many of the towns along the
Missouri and it's branches families
have been forced to leave their homes
and hurry to places Of safety in other
parts of the town.
The worst Of the food is reported to
be over today, and the water is reced-
ing nearly as quickly as it advanced
upon the villagers.
John Courtney, mail clerk on the
Great Northern, told Of the flood as
follows:
"Al the way from Havre to Will
liston the country was under water
when We came through. In some
spots the train had to plow through
water a foot deep. None of the bridges
was crossed without first a careful
inspection and then the greatest eau
ton was taken in crossing.
'There seems to be one great mass
of water and ice over the entire dis
trict. In some places we could just
see the tops of the farmers houses
over the food. Horses and cattle could
be seen knee deep in water on the
prairie.
1--WE noticed the food particularly
from Williston to Trenton and in the
immediate vicinity of Oswego, Fra
zie, Beaverton and Sage.
'"The food i 'pparently lone its
worst when W. -Ame along and it
looked as though the water might be
going down."

 Shima is not speculator-he is a producer He has good business sense and sells when the market is high, rather than when glutted and low. He takes advantage of the season by storing his yields when prices are poor and hastening them to market when quotations are in his favor.
 He chooses good lands, cultivates them scientifically and uses brains and industry in everything that he does Between his potato crops he gets more out of the land than oth- CTS, because, with intelligent effort, he plants beans, onions and other TO- tating crops, and so conducts his vast acreage that every minute of the year it is income property; and while he is getting all out of the soil that it will produce by scientific methods of cultivation he at no time impOverishes it.-StOckton Independent.

 It is surprising, when you stop to consider it. how much work about the home can be safely entrusted to dust carpets, floors, upholstery. drap- inSs and clothing with the aid of a vacuum cleaner. It will polish the hardwood floor with a floor polishing machine. and it will also polish the Silverware and brass work with d small buffing motor. It will wash and wiring the clothes with an elec- trio washing machine and it will dry the clothes quickly indoors with the assistance of an electric fan. It will beat eggs, grind coffee, run the meat and vegetable chopper, turn the ice cream freezer, sharpen knives and it will keep the house cool 'in summer with electric fans. It will run the sewing machine faster and better than it was ever run efore. It will dry the hair after a shampoo or pro- vide a massage. And it will operate the refrigerator, keeping it at just the right cooling temperature.
 These are few of the ordinary things about the home which can be easily quickly and economically done with the aid of electric motors.

Herr Friedrich Ludwig Cans of Frankfurt on Main has given his col lection of ancient works of art in- dustry to the Berlin museum. It con- tains about 645 different pieces and represents a marketable value of $375, 900. The peculiar strength Of this collection are the ornaments. all most exclusively of gold. They cover almost every period from the My cenic times to the Middle Ages and are surpassed only by the famous col lection in the hermitage at St Peters burg.
 Besides ornaments of pure gold the ancients had also some decorated with pearls, precious stones and enamel Some of the choice pieces are known from modern works on the history of art.

To those who wonder why mechanical power was not applied sonner to wo- mans work, as well as in the ma chine shops where men are employed, it is only necessary to explain that not until the small electric motor was produced was it possible to get power into the house without a great deal of noise, confusion, inconvenience and dirt.

WHAT CONSTITUTES A SUB
scRIBER2

A court decision has lately been
rendered in Massachusetts, on what
constitutes a subscriber.
The Judge firmly believed that q
man who received the paper. although
he never subscribed for It, IL entitled
to pay. James Thompson moved.
and William Robinson took imme-
date possession, and received and &C
copied a weekly newspaper that was
delivered to him through the malls
every week. The goodnatured editor
sent accounts frequently. but no at
tention was paid to them by Mr.. Rob
inson. Finally there was q day Of
reckoning. Robinson had received
the paper for some time, he informed
the collector, but he said that he
never subscribed and declined to pay
for it. The Judge personally ques-
toned the defendant, who said that
he read and made use of It and was
receiving the accounts, which were
frequently enclosed In the paper.
Judgment was rendered in favor Of
the newspaper. .....-
The Judge was severe in his crit.
cism of people who are receiving pa
pers and do not think 1t worth while
to pay for what they receive and
make use of 1t as an act Of dishon.
esty, he said one should acquaint the
publisher and pay for what numbers
he receives.-X.

We regret that Mr.. Judge Johnson
advertised that Mrs. Ada Overton
Walker would attend his dance. We
feel that Judge" meant no harm, but
simply followed an old custom. The
Negroes Of the Theatrical Profession
are classed according to their merit,
and paid accordingly. Our race has
made greater progress because of in
dividual successes among the mem
bers Of this profession. Would Judge
advertise Booker T. Washington in
such a manner?, Does he know that
she is the greatest Of her race in her
profession? We would not vouch for
his knowledge even on dancing, we
will give him first place as, an ad-
vertiser.
The Negro Press should advocate
the discontinuance Of this practice.
It is unfair to those who are deserv-
ing of more respect.

It should be understood among
Negroes that these confidential inter
views with various pro-leaders are
not secrets, but a stereotyped argu-
ment, handed out individually to each
of them, so don't get swell headed
with a state secret which after all Is a
Round Robin and an old political
chestnut-which often causes a fric-
ton or a fight between long-standing
friends. The game Of politics as
played today Is not Battle-Royal, but
one wherein the individual, factions
or parties seek to accomplish their
purposes by promoting the best In
terest Of their constituents.
