LEARNING THINGS
We Are All In the Apprentice Class

When simple change Of diet brings
back health and happiness the story is
briefly told. A lady of Springfield, ILL.,
says:
After being afflicted for years with
nervousness and heart trouble. | re-
ceived shock four years. ago that left
me in such a condition that my life
was despaired Of
Il got no relief from doctors nor
from the numberless heart and nerve
remedies tried, because l didn't know
that coffee was daily putting me back
more than the doctors could put me
ahead.
Finally at the suggestion of friend
left off coffee and began the use Of
Postum, and against my expectations
gradually improved in health until for
the past or s months have been
entirely free from nervousness and
those terrible sinking. weakening
spells of heart trouble.
my troubles all came from the use
of coffee which / had drunk from
childhood and yet they disappeared
when quit coffee and took up the use
of Postum" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Many people marvel at the effects Of
leaving off coffee and drinking Postum,
but there is nothing marvellous about
it-only common sense.
Coffee is destroyer-Postum is
rebuilder That's the reason.
Look in pkgs. for the famous little
book, THE Road to Wellvjlle."
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be well boil.
ed. 15c and ESQ packages.
instant Postum-is a soluble pow.
der A teaspoonful dissolves quickly
IN cup of hot water and, with cream
and sugar, makes a delicious beverage
Instantly. SOC and SOC tins.
The cost per cup OF both kinds is
about the same.

SKIN TROUBLE ON HANDS

Cassville, Monty hands and feet
were affected with a trouble similar to
rlngworm for a number of years. 1t
first appeared as tiny clear blisters
and in places the blisters were 30
close together that they almost formed
one large blister. The skin was rough
and cracked open. At times 1t was
30 bad that it disabled me; my hands
became so sore that could scarcely
use them.
II used every remedy that could
find but nothing seemed to do any
good. Finally sent for sample OF
Cuticura Soap and Ointment and
then got a cake Of Cuticura Soap and
a box of Cuticura Ointment which
completely rid me Of the trouble"

throughout the world. Sample of each

Memories Of old Luxembouro.

Luxembourg, whatever it's claims to
the protection of Great Britain, pos
sesses one strange association with
England that dates back IL centuries.
1t is connected with the cult of St.
Willibrod, the variously Saxon
saint who helped to convert the Ger
mans to Christianity-very imperfect
ly, as an oxford don once dryly re-
marked. Every Whit Tuesday the
memory Of our English saint is hon
ored at Luxembourg by procession
and religious dance which rank among
the most curious survivals Of medieval
pageantry. Luxembourg is also place
which appeals to British naturalists,
for one of the commonest birds in the
public park there is the charming
little black redstart, which is rare
winter visitor to England.-Daily
Chronicle.

HAS NO INJURIOUS EFFECT
Strong Denial That Presence Of Tuber-
eulosIs sanatorlums lie Detrlment
to Adjoining Property.

Convincing proof that tuberculosis
sanatoriums or hospitals are not men,
ace to the health nor a detriment to
the property of those living near such
institutions is given In a pamphlet is
sued recently by the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention Of
tuberculosis. In an extended study
of the subject the association has not
been able 20 md single instance
where a tuberculosis sanatorium has
had an injurious effect on the health
of anyone living near It, nor where 1t
has had any lasting effect upon prop
erty values.
The pamphlet, entitled, 1.-THE Effect
Of tuberculosis institutions on the
Value and Desirability of Surrounding
Property" reviews all the studies
made on the subject, takes up court
decisions bearing on the question and
contributes besides some original in
yestigations Of typical hospitals and
the opinions Of prominent men, life in
surance companies and others. Nearly
one hundred and fifty different institu-
tons are studied. In all these institu-
lions not one case could be found
where the assertions Of opponents to
their location, that tuberculosis san
atorium would spread disease and in
1ure property, could be substantiated.
In fact, a number Of instances were
found where the presence of the san
atorium or hospital promoted outdoor
living tending to lower the death
rate, and increased the market for
produce and labor thereby benefitlng
the community.

Tho "Rauer" is Austria's Backbone.

The "Bauer' Us AustrtaS BACKBONE
The most interesting of Austrian
types and the backbone of the dual
monarchy is the bauer" In social
rank he occupies somewhat the same
position as the old English yeaman,
farming his own land, and in many
cases enjoying a far more substantial
fortune than the nobility. The bauer
has a strict social code of his own,
mixing neither with the laborers on
one hand nor the aristocracy on the
other, is apparently quite content with
his lot, and takes pride in his ability
to provide almost all the necessaries
of life from the productions of his own
land, even, in many cases, growing the
fax from which his womenfolk weave
all the household clothing,-London

The lessons of the first quarter Of
this years cycle chiefly present Jesus
as the great teacher. Those Of the
second quarter principally concern the
aspect of his saviorhood, whereas dur
ing this present quarter we see him
mainly as the great judge. These les
sons have dealt with matters which
occurred during the last months, we
may almost say the last weeks, of his
life. During that year Of opposition"
he is met with the most determined
hostility and persecution. Neverthe-
less he proceeds against 1t all with
calm assurance, in strict justice and
without a shadow of faltering.
This reading lesson contains the
most celebrated and familiar verse in
the bible. In it We see:
A mighty God-"For God"
A mighty motive-"So loved
A mighty scope-"The world"
A mighty sacrifce-"So gave His only be-
gotten Son"
A mighty escape-"Not perish"
A mighty gift-"Eternal life"
We here see Jesus set forth in grace
and while it does not declare that he
came to Judge, yet, in the passage are
set forth those principles upon which
he is constantly the judge, and where
by he will eventually act in the last
and final judgment.

so? I'd have classed him with

He's in his fifties," Henley said,

the better for his .outburst, was a
penny-wit"
Later, Henley and Mark left their
refuge and sauntered through the
crowd. 1t CHANGED that Quinby espied
them. He deserted an admiring group
to greet them paternally.
"A lifelong dream has been realized,
thanks partly TO you"-he placed a
hand on Henleys shoulder com
mander in the field. And to you'-he
laid the other hand on Mark his

1t was a striking tableau. Quinby,
modestly unaware of the many eyes
upon them held it moment. then
gracefully withdrew.

sneered Henley. Drunk! Blind drunk
with selfimportance!
How much better are we?"
Sometimes" Henley said coldly,

away.
Mark, left alone, began to pick his
path gingerly around trailing gowns
and chattering groups. in search Of
fresh air and quiet. But once. as he
was passing a group of men. a remark
arrested his attention. He did not
know the speaker. but he halted
sharply and addressed him.
Who was that you said committed
suicide?"
The man looked at him strangely a
moment before answering.
Timothy Woodhouse. 1t was prac-
tically suicide. He insisted on going
up in his new flying machine. Broke

quickly but that he overheard an ex-

laugh was a sheer.
Henley turned on him. And you"
he snarled. Il made YOU, too. And
suppose, when Quinby cracks his
whip, you, too, will fall into line and
help to rob me of the stock I've made
valuable. You, with your Harmony

An hour before Mark might have

Henley dropped heavily into a chair.
Slowly the paroxysm subsidized. In ST.

surprisingly. What are you think

Henley stared hard. For a moment
Mark thought that again a match had
been touched to the magazine OF his
rage. Then the red of shame crept
into the older mans countenance. He
made a gesture of detection.
You're a witness that it does"
Mark limped slowly away from the
Quinby building.
Now, by all the rules of the game
he played, was the time to exult. The
monster was tanned, or at least for
ever baffled; it need not, looking upon
him. lick its soldering chops. Whether
or not the partnership-fna trophy
of Eldorado's conquest-survived
Quinbys treacherous caprice, the ad-
venturer would never again know the
haunting fear that dashed the crowd.
He had no need to catch its hurrying
pace.
Yet he did not exult. He had what

Marks campaign of conquest came to
it's grand climax-he became stock
holder in the Quinby Steel company,
one of the young partners of whom
Quinby, in all things abreast of his
great rival, was wont TO speak with
such paternal enthusiasm. Up to this
time he had been merely an employee,
handsomely paid but finding his chief
reward from Henley's profitable
friendship.
When, through Henley, Mark laid the
matter Of partnership informally be-
fore Quinby. he was allowed to see
