Mr. Hobbes bent over again very plesently. vou do it so well Id be gladd to watch you oppen my egg,’’ he said, handing her his cup and the hot egg. So Jennie fixt it for him! This storry reely ended with the The Old Plea. HE “DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS LOADE! The coffee drinker seldom realizes that coffee contains the drug, caffeine, a serious poison to the heart and nerves, causing many forms of disease, notice- ably dypsepsia. “Twas a lover of coffee and used it for many years and did not realize the bad effects I was suffering from its use. (Tea is just as injurious as coffee, be- cause it, too, contains caffeine, the same drug found in coffee.) “At first I was troubled with indiges- tion. I did not attribute the trouble to the use of coffee, but thought it arose from other causes. With these attacks I had sick headache, nausea and vomit- ing. Finally my stomach was in such a condition I could scarcely retain any food. “T consulted a physician; was told all my troubles came from indigestion, but was not informed what caused the in- digestion. I kept on with the coffee and kept on with the troubles, too, and my case continued to grow worse from year to year, until it developed into chronic diarrhea, nausea and severe at- tacks of vomiting. I could keep nothing on my stomach and became a mere shadow, reduced from 159 to 128 pounds. “A specialist informed me I had a very severe case of catarrh of the stom- ach which had got so bad he could do nothing for me and I became convinced my days were numbered. “Then I chanced to see an article set- ting forth the good qualities of Postum and explaining how coffee injures peo- ple, so I concluded to give Postum a trial. I soon saw the good effects—my headaches were, less frequent, nausea and vomiting only came on at long in- tervals and I was soon a changed man, feeling much better. “Then I thought I could stand coffee again, but as soon as I tried it my old troubles returned and I again turned to Postum. Would you believe it, I did this three times before I had sense enough to quit coffee for good and keep ith the Postum. I am now a well man with no more headaches, sick stom- ach or vomiting and have already gained back to 147 pounds.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Granpa was a little bit perplext about the way things turned out,’but Jennie and mother seamed very much pleesed. Granpa finally said that Mr. Hobbes dis- played a desided instinct for matrimonny and would make a good famly mann. They are going to get married. Persunaly I am very gladd, because Mr. Hobbes is:a fine fello in every way. He can chin himself ten times without stopping and gave me six glassies and a jacknife. It seams to me there are more important things in liffe than get- ting oppen a soft boiled egg. Snaps and Snarls. HE LAST lap of a joyride is usually made in a hearse. Some people are naturally uncongenial, and others make ‘‘daffydils.’” “Race suicide in New York’s Four Hundred.’’ Providence knows its busi- ness. The most interesting things every statesman says are ‘‘not for publica- tion."* We have no use for a woman who kisses her dog. Even a dog has some rights. The only way to cure a man who is always deprecating his shortcomings is to agree with him. _ We are not saying anything against Christian Science, but did you ever try it on a baby with the colic? So long as people demand “happy end- ings,’’ the popular stories will continue to stop at the conclusion of the court- ship. Some women love a man with a past, and others prefer one with a future; but the man with a present is always sure of a hearing. fa) Whenever we meet a man whose sole desire is to ‘go to heaven,” we always feel like help- ing him along.
