THAT SUN SPOT. On old Sol’s iridescent face A dainty freckle lies, Ten times as big as all outdoors, ‘And something more in size. It's full of Kansas cyclones ‘And Atlantic hurricanes, And every other kind of ill That haunts the coast and plains, talk no more of stellar tips, {baleful crescent light ! No more they stand as sponsors for Exch dread terrestrial plight. For now a modern hoodoo 's got Them strictly on the run— Atriple-plated bugaboo, That big spot on the sun, That makes a man unlucky When it scowls upon his birth. What bumps big ships together, And what shakes the solid earth ? What brings wide open winter, And a spring much overdue ? What hands out whiskered blizzards, And a thunder-storm or two? What makes the grip so mighty gay, And other human ills ? What fosters gout, pneumonia, ‘And variegated chills ? What makes call money run so high And causes stocks to slump ? What makes these runs upon the bank ‘And cost of living jump ? Why is the cruel financier So cussedly perverse ? What makes the striking union man Go rapid and get worse ? What makes the burglar burgle, And inspires the bold Black Hand ? What started all this wave of crime That overflows the land ? What made the Brownsville nigger get So careless with his gun ? It's a madness in the atmosphere— That big spot on the sun. —Garret Smith in New York Tribune. Only One “ BROMO QUININE” Tat s LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine. Similarly nedves sometimes deceive.

A DOCTOR'S BROTHER THOUGHT POSTUM | WAS COFFEE A wise doctor found out coffee was hurting him so he quit drinking it. He was so busy with his practice, how- ever, that his wife had to write how he fooled his brother, a clergyman, one day atiinner. She says : Doctor found coffee was injuring him and decided to give Postum a trial, and we have used it now for four years with | continued henefit. In fact, he is now free from the long train of ills that follow cof-| fee drinking. *To show how successful we a making Postem properly, I will relate an incident. At a dinner we gave, Doctor suggested that we serve Postum instead of ordinary coffee. + Doctor's brother, a clergyman, sup- posed it was old-fashioned coffee and re- marked, as he called for his second cup, + If you do preach against coffee I see you haven't forgotten how to make it.’” This goes to show that well-made— fully-boiled—Postum has much the flivor and richness of good coffee although it has an individuality all its owa. A ten days’ trial will prove that it has none of the poisonous effect of ordinary cotfee, but will correct the troubles caused by coffee. “There's a reason.” Name fur- .

That means accurate time for a lifetime because —after thus proving that the parts are perfect and accurately fitted— the adjustment of the hair spring and balance wheel have only to counteract such “‘out- side”? influences as change of temperature and position.
