COFFEE WAS 1T
People Slowly Learn the Facts.

"All my life L have been slave to
coffee l kept gradually losing my
health, but / used to say nonsense, il
don't hurt me-
Slowly ] was forced to admit the
truth and the final result was that my
nervous force was shattered.
MY heart became weak and uncertain
in it's action and that frightened me
Then my physician tod me that 1 must
stop drinking coffee or 1 could never
expect TO be well again.
II thought of Postum but could hardly
bring myself to give up the coffee.
Finally 1 concluded that ] owed il to
myself to give Postum a trial. / got
a package and carefully followed the
directions, and what a delicious. nourish-
ing, rich drink it was! Do you know, ]
found it very easy to shift from coffee
to Postum.
Almost Immediately after / made the
chaige I found myself better, and as the
days went by I kept on improving. My
nerves grew steady, l slept well and
felt strong and well-balanced. Now the
old nervousness is gone and 1 am well
once more
II pays to give up the drink that acts
on some like a poison, for health is the
greatest fortune that one can have. Name
given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich,
Postum comes in two forms:
Postum Cereal-the original form
must be well boiled. 15c and 25c pack
ages.
Instant Postum soluble powder
dissolves quickly in a cup of hot water
and, with cream and sugar. makes a de-
licious beverage instantly. SOC and SOC

Both kinds are equally delicious and
cost about the same per cup.

Less than a year ago he was hunted

When United States marshals tried to
arrest Tse-ne-Gat in February, 1915,
for the killing of a Mexican herder,
Old Polk a Ute chief, and a party of
Utes who had strayed from the reserva-

opposed the attempt.
Pitched battles resulted, in which sew

girl and two white men were killed
The Indians beat off the posses. Bluff

URGES QUICK ACTION.

The necessity for quick action was
made the keynote of the presidents
preparedness addresses in Pittsburg and
Cleveland in this, the first day of a
weeks tour of the middle west He
told of difficulties encountered in main
tanning the peace and upholding the
honor of the United States at the same
time. Two things, he said, were told
him by almost every one who came to
the White House. One was that the peo-
pie were counting on him to keep them
out of war; and in the next breath, he
continued, he was told that the people
counted equally upon him to maintain
the honor of the United States.
Have you reflected that a time might
come when / could not do both% He
asked. Have you made yourselves
ready to stand behind your government
for the maintenance of the honor of
your country?
Nobody doubts that given time
enough We can assert any amount of
force necessary. But when the world is
on fire, how much time do you want
to take to be ready? When you know
that there are combustible materials
in the life of the world and in your
own national life and that the sky is
full of floating sparks from a great
conflagration are you going to sit down
and say II IS time when the tire begins
to do something about it?'
81 do not believe that the fire is
going to begin but / would be surer Of
it if we were ready for the fire"
National defense, the president said,
was not a party matter. He was sorry
that the issue arose in a presidential
campaign year because Of the danger
that politics might becloud it. Repub-
licans and Democrats, he declared, were
equally patriotic and should be able to
agree on the national defense of their
common country.
But after all, the president continued,
the issue did not lie with congress. He
felt that congress would do its part.
The issue lay with the young men and
the employers of the country. The ques-
ton was whether the young men would
volunteer in answer to the call and
whether the employers would place no
obstacles in the way of their responding.
Not until this question was answered,
the president said. would it be known
whether America was to have an ade-
uuate national defense or not. He ex-
pressed confidence that his appeal would
be answered

THE CzAR's GREAT WEALTH

No not John d, Rockefeller. He isn't the
richest man in the world. The distinction
undoubtedly belongs TO the Czar OF Russia, OF
whom II has been said that he has so much
money that nobody can count 1t. And it is
fact that the wealth that is his as controller
of the Russian church, and as ruler of all the
Russias including that of tie members of his
extremely wealthy family, would certainly be
too great to count. including as it does all the
wealth of Russia, which is estimated at f7OOO.-

The Cars personal wealth, according to one
statistical genius, works out at 100000 day.
and should Russia get down 10 its last cent
or rather kopeek-in the royal exchequer.
Most of the Cars wealth Is derived from
landed possessions, of which he has nearly $780,

timber and yielding big rentals. The other
quarter is mining landN Siberia's mines are
owned by the Gear, while his jewelry and art

income is about e., 100000, out OF which. how

since the time of ADAM but there wasn't any

weather and climate.
Climate is a matter of large conceptions, Is

think they do. They go there for the weather.
People do not like or dislike distractions.
They like pleasant, sunshiny days. and kick

mate, that governs their ordinary. everyday
actions and moods. 1t is weather that favors

weather that spois the Sunday school picnic
