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

Many former coffee drinkers who
have mental work to perform, day aft

and greater endurance by using Post
UNI instead of coffee. An Ills. Woman
writes:
81 had drank coffee for about twenty
years, and finally had what the doctor
called coffee heart / 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.

ADDITION TO WARS HORRORS
English Chemist Has Produced Gas,
Which Set on Fire, Can Not Be
Extinguished.

Ernest Welsh, a chemist Of Hull,
England, has invented a remarkable
machine gun which is discharged by
gas, which will send projectiles five
miles in a minute, and the projectiles
set on fire anything they may strike.
In appearance the new weapon re-
sembles somewhat the Maxim gun,
and the mechanism, according to Mr.
Welsh, consists in part of three gener-
ators which manufactures three dis
tinct gases, whose nature he keeps
as his secret. He was willing to ad-
init, however, that it had taken him
10 years to find out the different
gases.
"A feature of these" he went on,
lis that they will ignite on water, but
one problem ! have not yet solved
is how to extinguish the flames which
they cause. The projectiles are not
large; it is the stuff they contain that
does the mischief"
Mr.. Welsh added with some pride:
Il have also perfected shot for
bringing down aeroplanes. You don't
have to fire accurately at the machine.
The gases are enough to suffO
cate any one within the area of their
scope"

AA the daily migration OF
hundreds of geese from
their confined quarters in the cottage
yards to the green uplands above the
hamlet. To one unaccustomed to the
sight II Is a quaint and interesting
spectacle to watch the passing of such
a flock on the highway and to follow
it until the goal is reached. In the
summer days the work of the village
begins very early. The men go to the
fields to guide the pillow or prune fruit
trees. Buxom women are seen walk
ing to the allotments nearer home.
Girls help in the fields and the chill
dren go to school. The youngest of
these are liberated early; they must
not be cooped up in a schoolroom in
the heat of the day, so they are free
to help in various easy ways in the
work Of the village, If you enter this
Hessian hamlet at half-past nine you
find quite a commotion, and you hear
the cacklng of large numbers of
geese. From nearly every cottage
gateway come geese, in twos, threes,
tens and sometimes twenty, each with
a dab of gay color on its wing, the
mark Of ownership. The housewife
or her children "shoo" them out into
the road, and soon the village is alive
with them. The older members of the
flock soon steer in the direction of the
wellknown pond, but the young re-
cruits are very unruly and want to

DESIGNED HER OWN ROOM
How One Girl Carried Out Ideas as to
the Furnishing and Col
oring.

Her brown study was the name a
girl gave to little room she had
made into a snuggery of her own,
where she could read and work and
have coy chats with her friends, 1t
was the brown study because brown
was the prevailing color, enlivened
with yellow. This girl did most of the
work herself, tinting the walls soft
yellow tan, with picture molding
painted cream color near the ceiling.
The floor was stained slightly dark
er shade than the walls, and ON it we're
laid rag rugs of browns, tans and yell
lows. The girl braided these rugs
from white material she had dyed her
self so that they would be just the
shades she wished
So far it was all plain brown, cream
and buff Now for variety and color
she chose a lowered cretonne with
design of little yellow roses. With
this she made slip cover for a little
low rocker, valance for the top of
her window with side curtains just to
the sill, curtain run on brass rod
instead of her cupboard door which
she had taken off, and slip cover for
her lounge, She preferred the slip
covers for her chair and sofa because
they could be sent to the wash occa-
sionally, so keeping her room fresh
and bright. She framed an oblong mir
TOR in the yellow rose cretonne, and
painted a bureau, a small kitchen
table, and two kitchen chairs in cream
colored paint. On the table she placed

ners and over the table hung her book.

ONCE PATRIOTS WERE FOOLED
Had Struck Lazy Neighborhood and
Nobody Would Order Him to
Stop His Work.

In the, opinion Of friends and
enemies alike Patrick was the LATEST
white man that ever drew breath. 1t
vas one CT the anomalies of Patrick's
existence that the only firm with
whom he could hold a job was coal
company whose strenuous methods
sometimes compelled him to be out
delivering coal at seven o'clock in the
morning
Certain of the company's customers
and their neighbors resented that in
human activity almost as much as
Patrick did. The first rafting of coal
down the iron chute banished sleep,
and irate aristocrats who could afford
the luxury of morning snooze popped
their heads out of the window and
ordered Patrick to postpone his la
bors until a more reasonable hour.

tingent to his, Julie and Rosine join
them with other struggling cacklers,
Karl, Moritz and Ernest must be in at
the drive, and before long the last
houses of the village are left behind
and six hundred geese begin to climb
the dusty road that leads to thepond,
Hans has shaggy-coated dog. He
carries a stick in his mouth His
services are really not required, and
he gladly walks quietly with the
drivers. The children keep the geese
from straying from the road on to the
tempting heritage of the banks, and
progress is slowly made under the
increasing heat of the sun. The
passage of so many hundreds of
webbed feet raises dust, so that by
the time the top of the hill is reached
it is very pleasant for all to leave the
road and turn on to the turfy ground,
in the direction of the longed-for wa
ter and the tree-shaded Doggy land.
And now the older geese, the knowing
ones, may be seen to hurry forward,
quite outstripping the main flock, for
the goal is near. They see water
ahead Their quick waddle becomes
half-fight, until, with a joyful rush,
they dive into the cool waters OF the
pond, making ripping eddies as they
swim. willows and poplars shade the
south bank, green weeds and rushes
harbor insect food, and acres of
swampy land are backed by pleasant
coppiced knolls. 1t is the promised
land. Here comes the main flock:
rushing, cackling, splashing they go
into the pond until it is seethlng with
life. The early corners have swum
across and are out again on the fur
Their side, grubbing in the grassland.
Hans throws himself on the ground
to rest after the dusty walk. His dog
stays with him. They spend the day
with the geese. Gretchen has other
work to do in the village, and after a
short rest she slowly trudges home
again, accompanied by some of the
children. But out here with the geese
we stay for while, enjoying the air.
White fleecy clouds float in the blue
sky, reminding one of the poetical
italian saying: at Madonna ia la
lana" From the edge Of the forest
near by comes the scent of the frs.

The modern bullet is small hard,
and moves at great speed. At ordi-
nary range 1t drills a small, clean
hole, which disables the wounded man
for time. 1t carries no fragments Of
clothing into the body, and the heat Of
its passage sterilizes the wound it
makes.
Even wounds through the bowels
are no longer passport to death.
Most men so wounded recover without
operation. An asceptic bandage, rest,
starvation, and proper nursing bring
most cases through.
