ExPERIM ENTS
Teach Things Of Value.

Where one has never made the ex-
pertinent of leaving OF coffee and
drinking Postum, it is still easy to
learn something about 1t by reading
the experiences Of others.
Drinking Postum is pleasant way
out of coffee troubles. A Penn. man
says:
my wife was 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 change from
coffee to tea, it was all to no purpose.
1--WE 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. It was truly wonderful. Her
nervousness was gone, stomach trou.
BILE relieved, appetite improved and.
above all, nights rest was complete
and refreshing.
This sounds like an exaggeration.
SS IL All happened 30 quickly. Eacn
day there was improvement, for the
Postum was undoubtedly strengthen
ing her. Every particle Of this coed
work is due to drinking Postum In
place Of coffee" Name given by Pos
tum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
Postum comes In two forms:
Postum cereaI-the original form
must be- we'll boiled. 15c and Csc pkgs.
Instant Postum-a soluble powder
dissolves quickly In cup Of hot wa
ter. and, with cream and sugar, makes
q delicious beverage Instantly. 3oc
and SOC tins.
Both forms are equally delicious
and cost about the same per cup.

occurrence as dependable as the rising
and setting Of the sun itself. Every
Sunday morning a rare vision of state
ly dignity for all her tininess, assisted
by Caleb, she descended from the Hun
ter equipage to enter the portals of the
Morrison Baptist church. After the
service she reappeared and, having
complimented the minister upon the
sagacity Of his discourse, again assist
ed by Caleb she mounted to the rear
seat Of the surrey and rolled back up
the hill.
That was as much as the townspeo-
pie ever saw Of Cal Hunters maiden
sister unless there happened to be a
prolonged siege Of sickness in the VII
lage or a worse accident than usual.
Then she came and camped on the
scene until the crisis was over, soft
voiced, soft fingered and serenely sure
OF herself. Sarah had never married,

interval which year by year had
brought to Caleb a more placid ro-

In face and figure Caleb knew that I'M
derneath IL all there had been no
shrinkage In her soul-knew that there
were no bleak expanses In her heart or
edges to her pity.
They often Joked each other about
their state of single blessedness, did
Caleb and his sister. Often, hard upon
his easy boast of satisfaction with
things as they were. she would quote
the fable Of the fox and the high hang
ing grapes. only TO be tainted mo-
ment later with her own celibacy.
But the taunt and the fable had long
been stingless. For Sarah Hunter
knew that one end Of Caleb's heavy
gold watch chain still carried a bit
OF a gold coin worn smooth and thin
from years OF handling; she knew
that the single word across its back,
even though II had long ago been ef-
faced 30 far as other eyes were con-
cerned. was still there for him 20 see.
And Caleb. rummaging one day for
some lost article or other In q pigeon

no license TO look, had como across Q

ing been told that he bad died for an
other with that same smile which the
picture had preserved-the tall and
jaunty youngster. And so their COM
prehension was mutual They under
stood, did Caleb and his sister.
But sure as he was of Sarah's funda-
mental kindness Caleb experienced q
twinge Of guilty uncertainty that Au-
gust afternoon as he closed the iron
gate behind the grotesque little figure
which had already started across his
lawn. For the moment he had for
gotten that the sun was low In the
west. He had overlooked the fact
that 1t was customary for the Hunter
establishment to sup early during the
warm summer months. But when he
turned to find Sarah watching, stir
and uncompromising, from the door

1t three victories but for the fact that
Deer Trap. his candidate In the two

racegoers to open their eyes. He won
two races In succession with Ancon

McTaggart. who came here with a great
reputation as a rider. had to put up
with second place, Ball is a young lad
about eighteen years old. who has been

excellent patience and appears able to
ride a strong finish. His two victories

ming mounts In the last four racing
days, more than credited TO any other
