The page reflects early 20th-century consumer culture and domestic humor typical of Judge magazine.

BY PROXY. WHAT THE BABY NEEDED, “I suffered from nervousness and head- ache until one day about a year ago it suddenly occurred to me what a great coffee drinker I was, and I thought may- be this might have something to do with my trouble, so I shifted to tea for a while but was not better—if anything, worse. * At that time I had a baby four months old that we had to feed on the bottle, un- til an old lady friend told me to try Pos- tum Food Coffee. Three months ‘ago | commenced using Postum, leaving off the | tea and coffee, and not only have my headaches and nervous troubles entirely disappeared, but since then I have been giving plenty of nurse for my baby and have a large, healthy child now, “T have no desire to drink anything but Postum and know it has benefited my children, and I hope all who have children will try Postum and find out for themselves what a really wonderful food drink it is.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich, Both tea and coffee contain quantities of a poisonous drug called caffeine that directly affects the heart, kidneys, stom- ach and nerves, Postum is made from cereals only, scientifically blended to get the coffee flavor. Ten days’ trial of Pos- tum in place of tea or coffee will show a health secret worth more than a gold mine. There's a reason. Get the book, « The Road to Wellville,” in each package.

Oh, my bosom heaves with joy As the prankful office-boy Sits loudly whistling up and down the scale ; For that whistle, clear and free, Brings the country back to me, And unthinkingly I look up for the quail. —New York Times. We have received from Dodd, Mead & Co., « Recreations of an Anthologist,” by Brander Mathews. This welcome little volume will be enjoyed by all readers who have bookish instincts, and are fond of the sort of light essays of which it,is com- posed. Aside from the literary charm and finish of the papers themselves, there are many gems of verse scattered over the pages from Holmes, Lowell, Bunner, Al- drich, Sherman, and others. There is a paper on the uncollected poems of H.C. Bunner, in which a number of his verses, as yet unbooked, are printed, among them, “ Behold the Deeds,” a chant royal which greatly pleased’ Robert Browning. “Lam sorry, doctor, you were not able to attend my supper last night; it would have done you good to be there. * Ithas already done me good, madam.
