MORE THAN EVER
Increased Capacity for Mental Labor
Since Leaving OF Coffee.

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform, day aft
er day, have found better capacity
and greater endurance by using Post
UNI instead Of coffee. An Ills. Woman
writes:
Il had drank coffee for about twenty
years, and finally had what the doctor
called coffee heart I was nervous
and extremely respondent; had little
mental or physical strength left, had
kidney trouble and constipation.
'The first noticeable benefit derived
from the change from coffee to Postum
was the natural action Of the kidneys
and bowels. In two weeks my heart
action was greatly improved and my
nerves steady
Then became less respondent, and
the desire to be active again showed
proof of renewed physical and mental
strength.
Il am steadily gaining in physical
strength and brain power. 1 formerly
did mental work and had to give it up
on account of coffee, but since using
Postum Lam doing hard mental labor
with less fatigue than ever before"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich.
Postum now comes in new concen-
trated form called Instant Postum. 1t
Is regular Postum, so processed at the
factory that only the soluble portions
are retained.
A spoonful OF Instant Postum with
hot water, and sugar and cream to
taste, produce instantly a delicious
beverage.

to Wellville"

AWFUL ECZEMA ON FACE

Freeland, Md.-"Babys eczema
started in little spots and would burst
and run all over his face and wher-
ever the water would touch his face,
it would make another sore. Pimples
would break out and make his face
sore and inflamed, and he was very
cross and fretful. It was awful. He
suffered tortures from it, and we had
to tie mittens on his hands to keep
him from scratching. A friend of mine
told me of the Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment and 1 went to a drug store and
bought them.
when we would battle his face with
the Cuticura Soap and apply the Cdti'
cura Ointment, he would be much bet.
ter. He would wake up in the nights
and cry with his face and we would
put on some Of the Cuticura Ointment
and then he would rest all night. They
have cured him completely Of the

EXQUISITE AGONY.

1T was, to say the least of It," a
London letter remarks, "just a little
bit awkward that the electric light
went out the other evening at the
town house of a presumably wealthy
widow who had been doing good
deal of political entertaining. The
guests, to the number of a dozen, had
just finished their soup when the I'M
fortunate incident occurred. The
scramble to find sufficient number
of candles so that the dinner might
proceed was attended with a great
deal of difficulty and no little amuse-
ment The butler, who Is described
as being bit new to his job, was i'm
mediately told to telephone to the
electric company, report the catas-
trophe and demand attention to the
matter. 1t was a trying moment for
the guests when he returned to the
dining room and announced in real
Cockney accent: Please, my lady, the
gentleman what's on the telephone
says they sent several warning letters
unless the account was paid active
steps would have to be taken.

Apple Desserts.

Make a very thin apple sauce; half
a kettle full. When soft add sugar,
butter and cinnamon to taste While
still cooking, lay upon the top small
dumplings made of reliable flour and
milk, cover and cook gently about 20
minutes. Sometimes l serve a hard
sauce with this. Berries, canned or
fresh, are fine this way.
Another similar dessert, but pre-
pared a little differently, is made by
filling cups nearly to the top with ap-
pie sauce. Put thin dumping made
as above on the top. Cook in a steam
cooker. Serve with any sweet hot
sauce. use one cup sugar, one table
spoon flour, one tablespoon butter
(cream two last). add one cup boiling
water, nutmeg. Let come to boil.

Best Of Care.

A physician tells in the Newark
Star a story of philanthropic doc
tor in a Pennsylvania mining town
who gave new thermometer to each
family, with the urgent advice to keep
their houses at a proper temperature
When he was making his rounds
one day he saw his thermometer
hanging in the room. He asked the
woman of the house If she remem'
bered his instructions.
Indeed, sir, do" was the response,
"I hang the thing right up there, and
watch it carefully to see it does not
get too high"
Good" exclaimed the doctor. "And
what do you do when the temperature
rises above 10 degrees?"
why, sir" answered the woman
with the air of one faithful to trust
when it gets too high, l take it down
and put it outside until it cools off,

manner of arranging their hair than
have Europeans or Americans. At any

these bands are very effective. Blondes
generally choose a band with back

terflies in natural colors, while the
brunette favors a pale colored ground
