LIGHT BOOZE.
Do You Drink III

A minister's wife had quite a tus.
sic with coffee and her experience is
interesting. She says:
During the two years Of my train
ing as a nurse, while on night duty,
l became addicted to coffee drinking.
Between midnight and four in the
morning, when the patients were
asleep, there was little to do except
make the rounds. and It was quite
natural that l should want a hot cup
of coffee about that time, ! could
keep awake better.
After three of four years Of cot
fee drinking, / became a nervous wreck
and thought that | simply could not
live without my coffee. All this time
l was subject to frequent bilious at
tacks, sometimes so severe as to
keep me in bed for several days.
after being married, Husband
begged me to leave off coffee for he
feared that 1t had already hurt me
almost beyond repair, so | resolved to
make an effort to release myself from
the hurtful habit.
IL began taking Postum, and for q
few days felt the languid, tired feel
ing from the lack of the coffee drug,
but / liked the taste Of Postum, and
that answered for the breakfast bev.
erage all right.
FINALLY | began to feel clearer
headed and had steadier nerves. Aft
err a years use of Postum l now feel
like a new woman-have not had any
bilious attacks since l left off coffee"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich. Read THE Road to
Wellville,' in pkgs.
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be well
boiled. 15c and 25c packages.
Instant Postum-is n soluble pow
der. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly
In a cup Of hot water, and, with cream
and sugar, makes a delicious bever'
age Instantly. 30c and soc tins.
The cost per cup of both kinds is
about the same.

GUILD FRAMES FOR WINTER
ING PLANTS
BY j.. n. HAYNES.

Successful gardening depends nm
early production. Cold.frame plants
are more certain to live than hotbed
plants and give a larger per cent of
good stuff than do the more tender hot.
he'd plants.
III constructing such, we use two
frames instead OF one. The larger
frame is Az feet by IN feet and l
loot deep. The inner one is one foot
smaller each way and only eight inches
deep.
me space all around the inner
frame six inches wide. is filled with
dry sawdust well packed down.
inc covering for the inner frame is
a giass'coyered sash made to fit quite
close to the frame to exclude the air.
me outer frame is covered with an
oiled canvased frame 10 as TO be wa.
ter-proof.
A strlp OF carpet, or other good ma.
terial, is kept over the inner sash in
severe weather.
We prefer shallow frames TO keen
the plants from growing spindling.
We choose a location free from cold
winds and where a good exposure to
the sun can be had.
If 1t is a little rolling, so much the
better.
There are S,276 square inches in
such a frame, and allowing three
square inches to the plant, one can
nave over 1000 plants per frame.
Good rich soil is used, and the under
soil Is made quite loose to give a
chance for root growth. 1t is best to
grow the plants in the open and trans.
plant on the approach Of severe
weather.
Frames of a larger size are not cas-.
lily handled, o can the same protec.
ton be given to them. On mild days
we give light to the plants by renew
ing outer sash, and If safe we raise
the inner sash to admit fresh air.
These frames are not expensive where
one can do his W work, and they add
a good per cent to the investment.

The cheapest kind of alcohol, we are

do the work of three gallons of gaso-

THE TEMPERANCE PROSPECT.

Following are excerpts from the ad'
dress OF Miss Anna A. Gordon, presi-
dent OF the National W. c. T. u, at
Chautauqua, New York, August II:
The phenomenal progress OF the
temperance reform az hastily outlined
Is the best proof | can present that
the prospect for national constitution
al temperance is most encouraging.
Many and varied are the influences
that have fed the fire Of public senti-
ment, but, speaking today for 100000
white.ribboners, It is only just, that l
should emphasize the 40 years OF edu'
cational work OF our organization, a
society unparalleled In its effective
machinery, in It's devotion and its self
sacrifice, and declare my belief that
under Gods blessing the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union has been
the greatest fundamentally In arous-
ing the heads, hearts and consciences
that are now demanding nationwide
temperance.
