COFFEE HEART
Very Plain in Some People.

from annoying ailments for long time
before they can get their own consent
to give up the Indulgence from which
their trouble arises
\ gentleman in Brooklyn describes
bis experience as follows:
81 became satisfied some months ago
that l owed the palpitation Of the
heart from which I suffered almost
daily, to the use Of coffee q had been
a coffee drinker for 30 years..
II realized that l must give up the
harmful indulgence in coffee but felt
the necessity for hot table drink, and
as tea is not to my liking. 1 was at
loss for awhile what to do.
"One day l ran across a very sensi
bic and straightforward presentation of
the claims Of Postum and was so i'm
pressed thereby that I concluded to
give it a trial, and I have used 1t ever
since.
THE effect on my heart has been
most salutary. The heart palpitation
from which l used to suffer 50 much
particularly after breakfast is gone,
and I never have return Of it except
when l dine or lunch away from home
and drink coffee because Postum
is not served. I find that Postum

duces no harmful stimulation"

year, the clash Of opinions that has
developed over certain phases of in,

made that most of this criticism is
bearing fruit in actual constructive
programs, several of which are given.
School inquiries are considered pro

on city-school systems. Agricultural
education and the rural advance are
treated interestingly and in detail in
several important chapters. The for.

comprehensiveness and breadth of
view. The chapter on higher ednca-

of the attempt to combine. higher in

WORKING OF PARCEL POST.

The chief opposition to the parcel
post, before the service was establish
ed, came from the country merchants
and the express companies. The lat.

cent OF their business, but country
merchants have found that it in.
creases their business rather than de.
creases 1t. A government INVESTIGATOR
who has been travelling through the
central west looking into conditions
makes this report:
The large mail order houses are
not getting the business away from
the small country merchants under
the parcel post system. Only the
merchant who is satisfied to sit by
the stove with folded hands all day is
noticing any decrease in his sales.
The parcel post is blessing to the
enterprising country merchant Every

Formerly 1T was next to impossible
for the country merchant TO deliver
goods to customers living more than
a mile or two distant. And even that
Required the expense of maintaining
a horse and wagon The result was
that the farmers either ordered from
the mail order houses or went after
the goods themselves, and they pre-
ferred the former method. Now the

She's crossing now the brook that

For wheresoe'er mid woodlands dim

Where huddled sheep by pasture-bars
lift many a plaintive bleat,
Along the leaf-embowered lanes, with
twinkling OF bare feet,
Mid daisies cleaning on the sward

The children all come trooping back,

CIVIL RIGHTS LAW INVALID.

Determinations against colored peo-
pie travelling on steamships or rail-
roads or other corporations in fed
eral territory henceforth will be made
without fear of the civil rights law
of 1875, which enacted penalties for
such determinations. The supreme
court on Monday held that colored
woman, Mary F. Butts, who claimed
that the Merchants and Miners Line,
on which she had bought a first-class
passage from Boston to Norfolk, had
denied her the privilege of the best
table and deck, etc, had no ground
for damage collection. Previously
the courts had ruled against the civil
rights act as to state territory, ind
the supreme court held that this in
validated it altogether.

special features of the annual report
of the United States commissioner OF
education, just issued. In addition to
these the report contains substantial
chapters on the following subjects:
General survey of the year; educa-
tional legislation during 1912; higher
education; city-school systems; rural
education; recent movements in negro
education; review of agricultural
education; progress in vocational edu-
cation; library development; educa-

with general view of conditions IN

In his introduction to the report
/ the commissioner discusses the wide
discrepancy between the increase In
the number Of children of school age
and the actual enrolment: an appar.
ent reduction in teachers salaries

Such an answer as this will never
satisfy the people of this country.
The case may become as weighty as
that of the going Of Pinchot or Of
Wiley. The people do not look with
favor on the schemes by which the
wealthy and influential escape their
just punishment. They see that there
is danger in procedures which mean
speedy. punishment for the poor ard
friendless and the escape OF the
rich, If these Californians have abused
the privileges of wealth by leading
girls astray they deserve all the more
punishment. They are the ones that

Without any reference to politics
they should be punished and the man
who was intent on bringing them face

THE WILSON CURRENCY PLAN.

THE WILSON CURRENCY PLAN.
The general outline of the admin
istration bill for the reform of the
Currency is known as the Glass-Owen-
McAdoo bill. The plan is to have
the secretary of the treasury, attor-
ney general and controller of the
treasury act as an organization COM
mittee to divide the United States in
to not less than twelve districts, each
city where federal reserve bank is
to be organized. To this bank every
national bank in that district would
have to contribute 20 per cent of its
capital. The capital of the reserve
bank to be not less than s5,000,O00.
That bank In each case would be con-
trolled by board of nine directors,
three chosen by the stock holding
banks, three by these banks, but to
represent public interests and three
chosen by the federal organizing COM
mittee. Shareholders in the reserve
banks would have dividend of 3 per
cent, half of the net earnings to be
Ipaid into surplus fund till it
reaches 20 per cent of the banks cap
tital and the other half into the fed
leral treasury. A federal reserve
board would be created 20 examine
accounts, establish discount rates and
SO on. This board would consist Oh
nine members, the secretary Of the
treasury, secretary Of agriculture and
controller of the currency. three mem
bers appointed by the President, with
the advice and consent of the senate,
and three by the electors of the fed
leral reserve banks. Rigid rules are
drawn for the conduct OF business in
such fashion that no officer of the
proposed banks could in any way OBJ.
tain fayors therefrom.

. suppressInu News.

Fairfield Evening Tribune: There
are people who will criticise the local
newspaper, saying it is no good and
will never give the credit for the least
bit of honest effort They would new

But The surprising energy Of these
people about the time something oc-
ours that they want the newspaper to
suppress is amusing. 1t is only then
the newspaper publisher realizes what
Ia power his paper is.
If these people were as eager to
give news as they are to suppress it,
most newspapers could dispense with
"a GOOD part of their reportorial staff.
