NO DANGER OF SUNSTROKE
Man on His Way to "Get Even" With
Enemy Had the Thing All
Planned Out.

You'd have known he was a medi-
cal man by his looks and by the medi.

bumped into him on the street was
too excited about something else.

exclaimed the doctor as he recovered
from the collision.

ply.

And that fighting will raise your

What of it?"
"A temperature Of 139 means sun

Are you a doctor?" asked the man.

Then you are way off your base.

Gallant Mayor.

From small provincial town in the
north Of Italy comes an amusing little
story. Queen Helena was visiting the
town, to attend the unwilling OF a
statue of Victor Emanuel.
After the mayor of the town had
made an elaborate speech Of welcome,
he handed the queen glass OF cham
payne, and asked to be allowed to
drink her health. AS their glasses
clinked, drop of champagne fell up
on the queens gown. She opened her

1t was gray winter afternoon; in
fact, the street lamps were being
lghted--the time known as entire
CHEN ct loup, when colors are undis
tinguishable The hurried customer
rushed into the ready-made clothing
establishment and explained to the
obliging proprietor that he wished to
hire black suit to wear at a funeral
on the morrow. The next morning the
mourner brought back the suit with
maledictons on his lips II hired this
suit for a black one last night" he
cried, "and when / got it into the day,

NEW IDEA
Helped Wisconsin Couple.

It doesn't pay to stick too closely
to old notions Of things. New ideas
often lead to better health, success
and happiness.
A Wis. couple examined an idea
new to them and stepped up several
rounds on the health ladder. The
husband writes:
Several years ago we suffered from
coffee drinking, were sleepless, nerv-
GUS, sallow, weak and irritable. MY
wife and I both loved coffee and
thought It was a bracer." (Delusion.)
Finally, after years Of suffering, we
read of Postum and the harmfulness
Of coffee, and believing that to grow
we should give some attention 70 new
ideas, we decided to test Postum.
when we made It right we liked
1t and we're free OF Ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the
ehange-fresher skin, sturdier nerves.
better temper, etc.
these changes were not sudden,
but increased as we continued to
drink and enjoy Postum. and we lost
the desire for coffee.
MANY OF our friends did not like
Postum at first. because they did not
make 1t right. But when they made
Postum according to directions on
pkg, they liked 1t better than coffee
and were berelted by the change"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle

Maybe It Happened.

A shabby.looking man and thin
little shaver of boy were standing
with their backs against wall along
the public way, The man had shade
over his eyes and card hung In front
Of him, bearing the legend, Blind and
Deaf"
The boy had smile on his face as
he listened to the street organ over
the way playing 'Everybody's Doing
It," and then started involuntarily &c
whistle the chorus.
The man turned savagely to hin
and Kissed:
