HARD ON CHILDREN
When Teacher Has Coffee Habit.

BEST is best, and best will ever
live" When a person feels this way
about Postum they are glad to give
testimony for the benefit Of others.
A school teacher down in Miss says:

childhood, and the last few years 1t
had injured me seriously.
'0ne cup OF coffee taken at break
fast would cause me TO become so
nervous that could SCARCELY go

nervousness was often accompanied
by deep depression OF spirits and heart
palpitation.

when under the influence of coffee had

to my wife and children. My wife
cried and begged me to go back and
give myself up. She said | was sure

his two brothers are fighting in the
German army. One of his brothers
has been wounded and has the Iron
Cross. And she said that was

LAST WORD ON CONSERVATION.

The necessity for conserving our ma
tional resources has been occupying
the attention OF our legislators, ma
tional and state. Laws have been en-.
acted to protect our forests and our
water supply. Millions of dollars have
been spent in controlling contagious
diseases among our domestic animals,
and to eliminate the boil weevil from
the southern cotton fields and the vari.
ous blights from our fruit orchards.
What greater national resource has
our country than our boys and girls,
and why should not the government
protect them from the blight caused
by tho use OF intoxicating liquors?--
Congressman Addison T. Smith OF
Idaho.

STOP RECKLESS DRIVING.

Maryland's automobile operators
are prohibited from taking a single
drink while at the wheel OF a car.
Commissioner Roe. whose depart.
ment has this matter in hand, says:
Il have decided to put an end to
reckless driving. and especially to
reckless driving superinduced by
strong drink, II It is possible for me
TO do so.
TO accomplish my purpose, It will
be necessary for me to refuse TO dis.
tingulsh between people who drink
little and those who drink much |
shall, therefore. in the future revoke
the license Of every automobile driver
who is brought before me IL 1t can
be shown that the accused has been
drinking while operating his car
This, In my judgment, is the only
safe rule TO follow. ] do not wish
to pose as al authority on drink or
what constitutes drunkenness. I see
no ray OF hope in so-called sobrlety
tests.
Therefore. must conclude that a
chauffeur or car owner who has taken
one drink is as guilty as the motor
operator who technically is consid.

thority by law to forfeit licenses for
such offenses, and I certainly shall"
