BENEATH THIS MANS DIGNITY
Was Willing to Do Much, but Drew
the Line at Acting AZ Secretary
to 6arnyard Fowl.

A farmer in one of the neighboring
townships, who had gone into scien-
tifac poultry raising. hit upon the
scheme of marking each egg with
certain data in indelible ink. His
idea was to find which variety of
chickens laid best, and then. when the
eggs were hatched, attach a tag to the
chickens legs. He soon found that
his hired man was negligent about
properly inscribing the eggs. One
day not an egg was marked, and the
farmer read him the riot act.
The hired man listened In sullen
silence until the boss finished. Then
he said:
See here. You'll have to get an
other man"
why. Jim, you're not going to leave
me, after working for me for six
years."
Yes, am" returned the hired
man. I've done all sorts of odd
chores for you without whimper, but
I'm burned II I'm going to stay here
and be secretary to any burned hen!"

FOUND A WAY
To Be Clear Of Coffee Troubles.

Husband and myself both had the
coffee habit, and finally his stomach
and kidneys got in such bad condi-
ton that he was compelled to give up
a good position that he had held for
years. He was too sick to work. His
skin was yellow, and there didn't
seem to be an organ In his body that
was not affected.
II told him felt sure his sickness
was due to coffee and after some dis
cussion he decided to give it up.
1T was q struggle, because Of the
powerful habit. One day we heard
about Postum and concluded to try it
and then 1t was easy to leave on
coffee.
His fearful headaches grew less
frequent. his complexion began to
clear, kidneys grew better until at last
he was q new man altogether, as re-
suit of leaving of coffee and taking up
Postum. Then began to drink it too.
Although / was never as bad of as
my husband, was always very ner-
vous and never at any time very
strong, only weighing IS lbs. before l
began to use Postum. Now I weigh
115 lbs. and can do as much work as
anyone my size, l think"

ring level teaspoonful in an ordinary
cup Of hot water, which makes 1t right

A big cup requires more and some
people who like strong things put in
heaping spoonful and temper 1t with
large supply of cream.
Experiment until you know. the

MAYOR ANXIOUS FOR
IMMEDIATE RULING
After Conference Rolph De-
cides to Rush Representa-
tives East to Give Facts on
Park Project - Secretary
to Be Asked to Approve
Plan Before March 4th

City Attorney Long and City Engi-
neer o'shaughnessy will depart for
Washington today to be present to
answer all questions regarding the
legal and engineering phases OF the
Hetch Hetchy water proposition that
Secretary of the Interior Fisher may
see fit to ask.
Mayor Rolph. after q conference with
Mr.. Long and Mr. O'shaughnessy last
night, came to the conclusion that the
Hetch Hetchy decision by the secretary
is so vital TO San Francisco and other
bay cities that every possible point OF
argument must be promptly mst
At present in Washington IS John r..
Freeman. the city's expert. and it is be-
leved by the mayor that Mr.. Freeman's
hand should be strengthened by the
presence of the city attorney and city
engineer, both of whom are thoroughly
familiar with the water situation.
FISHER RULING TO BE URGED
The mayor realizes that there Is little
time to spare in urging the approval
Of the findings of the United States
army engineers. The approach of the
end Of the Taft administration makes
it imperative that Secretary Fisher be
Impressed with the necessity of render
ing an opinion before he leaves che
cabinet, the mayor thinks. To go oyer
the ground with the new admin.stra-
ton, no matter how favorable 1t might
be toward San Francisco. would entail
a large expenditure of money and loss
OF much valuable time.
The mayor. who has been constantly
In touch with the situation and has
been urging action. determined that 1t
would be fatal not to make an i'm
mediate reply to any of the secretary's
questions through a strong delegation
of city representatives.
FEARS FISHER MAY PASS 1T OVER
Mr.. Rolph expects any moment
favorable answer from the department
of the interior. but there is still the
possibility of delay owing to the pres
sure Of business upon the secretary
in preparing to retire. From Wash
ington sources it has been learned that
Secretary Fisher may wait one week
before giving his consent to the
Hetch Hetchy project, but there is
also an unconhrmed rumor that he
may leave the matter to be settled by
his predecessor.
City Attorney Long and Engineer
Oshaughnessy will take with them
all data concerning the Hetch Hetchy
that the city possesses.
