Mrs. Jones attributes it to biliousness and if it doesn't wear off during the day she J| gives him a dose of liver medicine at night. The next morning he feels better and she gives him coffee for breakfast, —and the next morning,—and the next morning. And in I a few days Jones has another spell. Dear Mrs. Jones means all right, but she doesn't seem to realize that if she didn't give Jones his morning coffee she wouldn't have to give him the liver medicine and Jones would feel all right without both. Housewives everywhere have found out that Instant Postum takes die place of break fast coffee perfectly. And that is only one of the reasons why Instant Postum has wholly . supplanted the use of coffee on thousands upon thousands of American breakfast tables.

FAMILY BIBLE IN COURT CANT SAVE SON FROM PRISON Gray-Headed Father of Eugene Carter Brings Well-Thumbed Good Book The well-thumbed, more or less dog cared. old family Bible that had a place all its own on the little table in the parlor of Simon Carter's home for so many years was brought carefully Into tho Dauphin county criminal court to-day—to save Eugene Carter, hope of the house of Carter, from a pro longed stay within the gray walls of the Eastern Penitentiary. Carter's white-headed father brought /he Bible to court. During September sessions Eugene • was convicted, of criminally attacktng a small girl and when he was ar raigned for sentence President Judge Kukkel pondered a good deal as to whether the prisoner should be sent to the Eastern Penitentiary or to the Huntingdon Reformatory. The age problem kept court and district attor ney guessing. Twenty-five years is the age limit for the reformatory. Carter contended that he was not yet twenty-five; examination of his ap plication for a marriage license sev eral years ago proved him ti be twenty-six; Carter's old mother told the court that the date, of her son's birth was set forth in the Carter Bible. W hat the Good Book Produce*! But the Good Book's pages didn't produce very satisfactory evidence of the youth's age. True, his name ap peared. but If the chronological order had been accepted. Carter would have been only about cseventeen. So Presi dent Judge Kur.kel decided. "Well, the defendant appears to be between twenty-two and twenty three," said he; "certainly he's more than twenty-one. So we'll assume that he is between twenty-two and twenty-three, and impose the sentence of the law accordingly." And he sent Carter to Huntingdon Reformatory. Following the Carter case. Harry Hale, and Elijah Hoover were placed on trial In No. I room on charges of breaking into the refrigerator of T. H. Johnson at Riverside and stealing a lot of bananas and milk.
