Keep a-Moving Along.

There never was time in the his
tory of the world in which there was
so violent passion of movement as
today. We are none of us content to
live our lives in one place. We must
all be going somewhere in search OF
new sights. The railroad no longer
keeps pace with our desires. The
neatly laid rails which traverse our
continent seem too formal In the rap
idity of our thought. 1t inks us to pre-
sent ourselves at a railway station in
time for the express.
We must settle our own hour and
take our journey as we list. So motor
cars come to the aid of railway trains
and for those who cannot bear the
sloth and solidity OF the earth on which
they were born there Is the flying ma
chine.

story That Defies Time.

Commentaries have been written on
the Book of Job which only Job could
have the patience to read. A hundred
books have been written and many a
song has been sung with the fortunes
of Mary Stuart for their burden, but
these have been redeemed from the
dullness which has so often fallen
upon even the stupendous drama of
the Old Testament by the mystery and
glamour which ever wait upon the
Scottish queen.
More than three centuries have
passed since she stood to her trial in
Fotheringay castle, yet time, that COW
ers most things with its weeds, has
been powerless to impair the interest
OF her story.

EXPERIMENTS
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 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 q change from
coffee to tea, 1t was all to no purpose.
1--WE knew coffee was causing the
trouble but could not md 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 II by
magic. 1t 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.
as 1t all happened 30 quickly. Each
day there was Improvement, for the
Postum was undoubtedly strengthen
ing her. Every particle Of this good
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 cereal-the original form
must be well boiled. lie and 25c pkgs.
Instant Postum soluble powder
dissolves quickly in a cup of hot wa
ter. and. with cream and sugar, makes
delicious beverage instantly. soc
and soc tins.
Both forms are equally delicious
and cost about the same per cup.
There's a Reason" for Postum.

REMARKABLE ANOMALY.

A London banker--not temperance
man--is quoted by the Review of Re-
views as saying: 1.-THE drink question
has been Just about the worst handled
of any Of the domestic problems which
have confronted England since the out
break Of the war. The savings. direct
and indirect, from the putting through
of Lloyd-George's total prohibition
scheme last spring would have gone a
mighty long way towards paying the
cost OF the war. We have the remark
able anomaly of people sacrificing
rivers of blood for their country, and
yet unwilling to give up the use of a
beverage which not only wastes money
but lowers their Industrial and mill
tary efficiency as well. It will
probably take another year or 80 Of
war to bring the country to it's
senses"

PROHIBITION IN BOISE.
The city Of Boise, Idaho, Is well sat
isfied with prohibition and is not wor-
rying about saloon substitutes. Three
wholesale liquor houses are all being
remodeled for other purposes. Three
or four former saloons are now soft
drink places. One saloon Is turned
into a music store, and two into bar
Der shops. One Of the former whole
sale liquor stores is to be a variety
store.
Adjutant Burnett says the transfer
nation In the soldiers home since the
first Of the year was wonderful. IF
the state only went dry for the benefit
of the soldiers home, it Is worth
while.'
Sheriff Post says: Never have
there been SO few prisoners at the
county jail as at the present time. The
former average was from to %.
Since the state went dry the number
has grown less and less until at the
present time there are but four coun.
ty prisoners and one held on fed
eral charge"
The Boise (Idaho) Statesman says:
January was a record breaker for the
Carnegie library. Never in any previ-
Gus month have there been SO many
readers, the attendance almost
doubling that of other months. This is
thought to be due to the closing of the
saloons. An unusual number OF for
eigners are now noticed In the library
and it is possible foreign papers or
magazines will be subscribed for, II
the attendance keeps up enough to
warrant 1t.
Men who have never before been
in the library now appear almost daily.
Sunday there was not seat to
spare in the municipal reading room.
which Is open until midnight. and each
night up to about eleven o'clock it is
