ExPERIME
Teach Things of Value.

Where one has never made the ex-
pertinent of leaving OFF coffee and
drinking Postum, it is still easy to-
learn something about it by reading;
the experiences of others.
Drinking Postum is pleasant way
out of coffee troubles. A Penn. man.
says:
"My wife was a victim of nervous.
ness, weak stomach and loss of ap-.
petite for years; and although we re-
sorted to numerous methods for re-
lief, one of which was a change from
coffee to tea, 1t was all to no purpose.
ave knew coffee was causing the
trouble but could not find anything to.
take its place until we tried Postum.
Within two weeks after she quit coffee,
and began using Postum almost all of.
her troubles had disappeared as If by
magic. 1t was truly wonderful, Herr
nervousness was gone, stomach trou-,
BILE relieved, appetite improved and.
above all, nights rest was complete,
and refreshing
This sounds like an exaggeration,
as it all happened so quickly Each
day there was Improvement, for the,

Night With Flashlights and
Earn Spending Money.

Bartlesville, Oklahoma. - A dozen
or more boys of this city are doing
much to rid the community of Eng
lish sparrows in order that song birds
may multiply and flourish, and at the
same time earning pocket money. For
each sparrow captured and destroyed
they receive reward of penny.
The method adopted by the sparrow
hunters rests chiefly upon a pocket
flashlight, for their work is at night.
During the day they find the nesting
places Of the pest birds.
When darkness falls they go from
house to house, climb to the roosts Of
the birds, turn the glare of the flash
light upon them, and the rest is easy.
They visit from 10 to 20 houses a
night.

VENIzELOS COMING BACK"
SENTIMENT FOR MINISTER Is
SPREADING AMONG GREEKS.
Government Unable to Suppress the
Demonstrations and Meetings
for Former Premier.

Athens, Greece.-An impartial OBJ
server who has Just returned form
tour of all the mainland of Greece
reports an amazing spread Of senti-
ment in favor of Elutherios Veni-
zelos, the former premier, even in con.
servative Peloponnesus.
The recent efforts of the government
to suppress the demonstrations and
meetings Of the Venizelos adherents
has awakened deep resentment among
the people and there is a growing
determination to oust the present gov
ernment even If it be necessary to
resort to arms.
Some Favor Revolution.
1t is learned from incontestible au-
thority that several leaders of the
revolution of 1909 are actively engag-
ed in planning a similar attack, al
though Venizelos deprecates this and
advises instead the practice of pa
tience and use of legal methods. On
the other hand the recent plot against
him failed only by a hairs breath,
owing to the extraordinary devotion
and watchfulness of his followers.
Frequent talks with King Constan-
tine prove to the press that the mon
arch honestly is persuaded that a
policy of inaction is approved by a
majority of the Greek people, the king
persists in regarding the recent dem
onstrations of the growing popularity
of Venizelos as merely political man.
