A prominent medical writer in an
article How to Keep Well" says:
Coffee relieves fatigue by stimulating
the brain, the spinal cord. the muscles,
the heart and the kidneys. 1t doesn't
merely benumb the tired feeling; it en-
ables the body to eliminate the poisons
that cause the tired feeling. Coffee Is
not a moral menace. 1t makes for So
liability.
ut is food as well as drink as ordi-
narily taken with sugar and cream. In
all our private and hospital experience
we have never encountered an in
stance In which dyspepsia, nervous
ness or any other ailment was reason
ably attributable TO the moderate and
habitual use of coffee as a beverage.
1t is true that hundreds of mortals
deny themselves this boon because OF
some fancied or educated fear that 1t
isn't good for them. buffalo Sanitary

most unanimously by the House Satur-
day afternoon The investigating com,

evidence he had, reported that no scin-
tilla of information pointed to either
corruption or disloyalty of any member.
Chairman Barnhart of the committee
reported verbally that Mr. Hefin had
repeated before the committee his oft
stated suspicion that the conduct of GER
tain members had not squared with his
ideas of loyalty. But the committee, Mr.
Barnhart said had decided that it was
not justified in investigating this gen.
crafty. The committees report said in
part:
while your committee makes no rec
in the premises, we beg to
state il as our opinion that in so far
as Mr.. Helms charges impute or might
fairly be construed TO impute unworthy
or corrupt or dishonest motives to any
of Congress, notwithstanding
that he now denies any intention to con
vey such an impression, his conduct in
that respect is subject to criticism,
But inasmuch as the serious question

ion would be the institution. by him, of |

ooked into charges by Hetlin that he had /
been misquoted by newspapermen in the
statement that he knew of a gambling 4

Ieilin denied this. two correspondents

lew, stoutly avowed its authenticity.
IN this point the report said:
"In this question of veracity Of wheth-
r Mr. Hefin or the two newspapermen
ell the truth, the committee finds itself

The National league champions were

Song of the Brown Thrasher.

When the brown thrasher starts to
sing one might just as well listen. as
he will be heard, and every other bird
might just as well keep still, as moth
ing else can be heard. He dominates
the entire vicinity. He is on the stage
in the middle of the spotlight. His
performance is dramatic. 1t is comic
opera at its best. The brown thrasher
is more commonly known, probably, as
the brown thrush or sometimes as the
cinnamon thrush, but as the bird does
not belong to the thrush family he
should be given his proper name. He
is cousin of the catbird and the mock
ing bird.--Ohio State Journal.

Raisin Bread.

Incorporated with bread raisins con-
stitute valuable diet and help out
the meat problem. It is stated that
the raisin contains nearly per cent
protein and over 65 per cent carbohy-
drates and therefore is a very impor-
tant energizing food. For invalids and
children raisln bread is invaluable, says
food expert. The simplicity Of the
loaf makes it an ideal substitute for
the lard, butter, sugar, egg, cream and
citron laden cake. 1t is therefore an
important addition to the domestic
menu, and the woman who has her

EASY SCORING
FOR MONTPELIER SEM.
Heavy and More Experienced Team Had
No Trouble with st. Johnsbury
Academy, Winning at Mont
pelier SO to 0.

Montpelier seminary won its second
game of football this Geason when, Sat
urday afternoon at Montpelier, it defeat
ed st. Johnsbury academy team by a
score of 80 to O. 1t was not, as a whole,
an interesting game to watch, owing to
the fact that the Montpelier team out
cassed the visitors at all points of the
game excepting persistency OF defensive
playing. The local team outweighed
the visitors about 20 pounds to the man
and were a more matured lot of fellows,
who have seen quite good deal more
football.
The visitors team was considerably
depleted by the fact that the enlstments
of last spring took several Of their best
players but the youngsters played a
plucky game all of the time and at one
time in the third period it looked as
though they would be able TO score but
Montpelier braced up at that time and
soon took the pigskin away from them,
pushing down the field until they landed
a score.
In the first two periods the seminary
kept the visitors on the defensive nearly
all of the time but in the last part Of
the game the st. Johnsbury team was
a. lie to hold them for downs. Granai,
the first quarterback Of the seminary
team, pulled off little fstic exhibition
in the second period which resulted in
his going to the dressing room, Referee
Reid having ordered him from the field.
Irons, who took his place, played well,
making slong gains, while Hatch, who
succeeded him as quarterback, appeared
