1T is a tribute to President Wilson's
craftsmanship and personal character
that this great tariff bill has gotten through
Congress with no hard feelings Of any
sort. The Democratic leaders have
worked in full sympathy with the PreSi-
dent and there is absolutely no division
in the party. Even the Republicans are
as near TO being satisfied as one party
can ever be satisfied with an opposing
party's legislation. The President is a
great man and he is giving the country
splendid service.

SECRETARY DANIELS of the Navy De-
partment has just gotten in another blow
al the Steel Trust. This unholy combi-
nation tried to gouge the government by
charging $54S a ton for steel bolts to be
used in the construction OF battleShip,
but the Secretary has made contract
with an independent firm at just one hum
dred dollars ton less.
Even the great Steel Trust, with Its
limitless wealth and unbounded influence
cannot bride or bully this administration.
ALTHOUGH "a Republicans and IA Pro-
gressives united with the Democrats in the
passage of the currency reform bill that

an inch beyond the narrow party lines
in which they move.
What pity that intelligent men will
deliberately circumscribe their usefulness
in this progressive age. They may repre-
sent party, but they do not stand for
patriotism.

At the recent International Congress
of Applied Chemistry in London one
of the most celebrated lecturers, Gia-

of the future will not be contented
with a dress which remains constantly
of one color. but will demand colors
that change in harmony with their sur
roundings.
Thus the color of the apparel may
be changed without changing the
dress. Passing from darkness to light
the color would brighten. thus con-
forming automatically to the environ
ment-the last word in fashion for the
future.
This prediction will come true as

AN OLD NURSE
Persuaded Doctor to Drink Postum

An old faithful nurse and an exper-

of tea and coffee.
The doctor said:
Il began to drink Postum five years
ago on the advice of an old nurse.

place of tea and coffee, / could eat
anything and sleep as soundly as

inc instead of sugar, to sweeten with.
may add that today tea or coffee are
never present in our house and very
many patients, on my advice, have
adopted Postum as their regular bev-
erage.
In conclusion can assure anyone
that, as a refreshing. nourishing and
herve-strengthening beverage, there is
nothing equal to Postum"

Instant Postum doesn't require boil

cup of hot water, which makes it right
for most persons.
A big cup requires more and some
people who like strong things put in
heaping spoonful and temper it with
large supply of cream.

amount that pleases your palate and
have it served that way in the future
