CHANGE Quit Coffee and Got We'll.

A woman's coffee experience is in. teresting. For two weeks at a time l have taken no food but skim milk, for solid food would ferment and cause such distress that l could hardly breathe at times, also excruciating pain and heart palpitation and all the time l was so nervous and restless.
 From childhood up l had been a coffee and tea drinker and for the past 20 years l had been trying different physicians but could get only tenn porary rel0f. Then l read an article telling how some one had been helped by leaving on coffee and drinking to read about good health l decided to try Postum.
 T made the change from coffee to Postum and there is such a difference in me that ! don't feel like the same person. We all found Postum deli cious and like it better than coffee. My health now is wonderfully good.
 AS soon as l made the shift to Postum I got better and now my trou- bles are gone. am fieshy. my food as- similates, the pressure in the chest and palpitation are all gone my bowels are regular. have no more stomach trouble and my headaches are gone.

MAKE CANDY AT HOME
CHEAPER AND GENERALLY BET
 TER THAN CAN BE BOUGHT.
Suggestions Here That Are Welt Worth Making Note Of Dipped Chocolates Among the Best
 Various Ways to prepars.

Homemade candies are cheaper than those one buys in the shops. Of course, dipped chocolates made at home cost a good deal. but even they do not cost as much as good choco- lates from the shops. And homemade peanut brittle is as much cheaper, rel atively, than homemade dipped choco- lates as "storemade' peanut brittle is cheaper than good chocolates.
 An inexpensive and delicious sort of peanut brittle is made from shelled peanuts and granulated sugar. Spread the peanuts, shelled and skinned and broken in halves, in buttered pans. Melt granulated sugar and cook it un- til it turns brown, but do not let it burn. AS soon as it is all brown. but before any of it has begun to burn, pour it over the nuts. A few drops of vinegar may be added just before re- moving the sugar from the fire.
 Dipped chocolates are most easily made with an uncooked foundation. Break the white of an egg in a big bowl and add to it three tablespoon fuls of cream. Mix a little and add pinch of cream tartar and confection- CTS sugar enough to make a stiff cream. Then divide it into several smaller bowls and flavor each differ ently.
 Into one pour little very strong coffee, or coffee extract, and add enough more sugar to stiffen sutfi- ciently to handle with a teaspoon. Then form with a teaspoon and place in little mounds on waxed paper If you add enough confectioners' sugar to make the cream dry enough to han dle with the fingers it does not taste quite so soft and creamy as when it is handled softer with a spoon.
 To another batch of the fondant add some raspberry jam and form into mounds. To another add grated orange rind and little juice To an- other add essence of peppermint. To another the juice from maraschino cherries. To another chopped nuts. To another cocoa powder enough to color rich chocolate. Add enough sug- ar always to make the cream stiff enough to handle with a spoon. A lit tie vanilla may be added to any of the other favorings. Stiffen some of the fondant and mold it around candied fruit and nuts and maraschino cher ries drained of their juice.
 Let the cream forms harden over night in cold place, and the next day melt the special coat chocolate sold for the purpose. Don't use it too hot Take each form on fork, dip it into the chocolate and slip on waxed paper to dry.
 Decorate the tops of some of the chocolates with nuts and candied fruits

THEIR RESISTANCE HAS BEEN so STRONG BULGaRiANS HAD
 TO CALL FOR ASSISTANCE.
BRITISH HAS SOME SUCCESS
Along Stry River Austro-Germans By a Counter Stroke Have Pierced Russian Lines and Captured
 1,500 Prisoners.

London.-The Servians are falling back from mountain range to noun tain range before the Austro-Germans, whose official reports enumerate the capture of a thousand or more pris- oners daily. few guns and quantities of stores. The Servians, however are inflicting considerable loss on their pursuers.
 Along the eastern front the Serv- ians appear to be holding their own against the Bulgarians and are mak- ing stand on the western bank Of the Morava River. Their resistance has been so stubborn the Bulgarians have had to call for assistance from the Austro-German artillery in their effort to drive the defenders out of Katchanik Pass. Thus far they have been unsuccessful
 The British and French troops, which are receiving re-enforcements, are meeting with some success, and besides repulsing Bulgarian attacks have undertaken small offensives with good results. The Austro-Germans and Bulgarians, however, made sucn progress from the beginning of the campaign that it will take serious work now to check them.
 For the moment the political situa- tion is graver than the military. The central powers again have protested to Greece against the landing of al lied troops at Saloniki. King Con stantine is reported to have replied that as Salonilli is an open port there has been no infringement of Greek rights in the landing and that Greece will remain neutral until one of the belligerents has transgressed against those rights. France and Italy, who has joined ner allies by sending a warship to Saloniki, are particularly anxious as to the attitude of Greece
 The Russians have repelled def nitely Nou Hindenburg's drive toward Riga and Dvinsk and along the Dvina River and have taken the of fensive. but apparently. owing to the state of the ground. have made only slow progress in the marsh region west of Riga.
 Along the Styr River. in the south, the Austro-Germans, by counter stroke, have pierced the Russian lines and captured 1,500 prisoners, accord, ing to Berlin. These strokes are about all that can be expected on the eastern front while the soft weather continues.
 On the western front there have been no events of importance.
