GOOD CHANGE.
Coffee to Postum.

The large army Of persons who
have found relief from many chronic
ailments by changing from coffee to
Postum as a daily beverage, is grow
ing each day.
1t is only simple question Of try
ing 1t for oneself in order to know
the Joy of returning health as realized
by an Ills. young lady. She writes:
Il had been a coffee drinker nearly
all my life and it affected my stomach
caused insomnia and was seldom
without a headache. had heard
about Postum and how beneficial it
was, so concluded to quit coffee and
try 1t.
II was delighted with the change.
l can now sleep we'll and seldom ever
have headache. My stomach has got
ten strong and can eat without suf-
fering afterwards. l think my whole
system greatly benefited by Postum.
my brother also suffered from
stomach trouble while he drank cof-
fee, but now, since using Postum, he
feels SO much better he would not go
back to coffee for anything"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to
Wellville," in pkgs.
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be well
boiled-16c and ESQ packages.
Instant Postum-is a soluble pow
der. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly
in a cup of hot water and, with
cream and sugar, makes delicious
beverage lnstantly-30c and SOC tins.
The cost per cup of both kinds is
about the same.
There's q Reason" for Postum.

The Years Revenue.

The official figures on national reve-
nue. leave the Republican effort to
make an cutlery over a deficit" in
very bad shape, unless they can show
the statement to be erroneous. Ex-
Guiding the Panama expenditures,
there is an excess Of receipts over ex-
penditures of about $30,000,000. With
the Panama expenditures included,
there will be shortage, as has hap
pened before, Of $5,000,000, which can
be easily cared for by the accumulated
surplus.
This satisfactory showing Is largely
due to the fact that the new tariff has
yielded $22,000,000 more than was ex-
pected. This slightly more than bal
ances shortage on the income and cor
poratlon tax below the original es-
innate Mr. Underwood's explanation
on Saturday went far toward clearing
up that shortage. On all incomes the
tax was only for ten months of 1918.
On the super-tax on large incomes, It
began only after the passage OF the
bill in October. Besides, this being
only three months in the year. 1t In
cluded neither Of the dates of large
dividends, January 1 and July l. Mr..
Underwood considers the tax Of last
year to be equal to six months tax.
Whether that is a correct estimate
or not must be settled by the future.
1t seems justifiable to conclude that
the government revenue exceeds ex-
pendltures, which is fair result con-
sidering the extravaganza In appro-
priations common to both parties.

PILOT LIGHTING PLANTS
Fine for Dairy Farms

We sell great many Pilot Lighting
Plants to dairy farmers. Because dairy
farmers can get even more out of an
Acetylene installation than anybody else.
Our Dairy farmer patrons make these
Acetylene plants do double work. They
run an extra line of pipe to each bafn-
and sometimes to other outbuildings. In
these buildings they fasten the great balls
Of Acetylene light to timbers or rafters.
They also equip these lights with igni-
tion devices - to make them light with
the pull of chain without matches.
Two Of these Acetylene barn lights will
make big dairy barn as light as day.
They will give more light than dozen
santerns-and unlike lanterns, they can
not be tipped over.
The same Is true OF Acetylene house
lights. They burn in handsome station
ary bronze or brass fixtures securely fast
ened to ceilings or walls.
