In Thousands

Instant Postum is regarded as one of the
regular staples of the pantry, along with
flour, sugar and other "ijecessities" of life.
V- *-•' N
Instant Postum looks and tastes much
like coffee, hut causes none of the discom
forts of coffee. It is a pure-food drink, rich
in the nourishing goodness of choice wheat,
including mineral elements of the grain so
essential for perfect 4iealtli.
Here is a beverage that children as well
as the older ones can safely enjoy. It is
ideal in its convenience (made instantly in
the cup) and delicious flavor. A ten days'
trial shows
"There's a Reason" for
Instant Postum

! BIG WEEK AHEAD
IN LEGISLATURE
Hearings and Senator Penrose's
Visit Will Make Things
Very Lively
Plans for presentation of the reve
nue-raising measures, the completion
of the budget, hearings on capital
' punishment, local option and the an
thracite mine code together with the
j visit of Senator Boies Penrose and
| the biennial dinner of the Legislative
! Sons of St. Patrick on Tuesday, as
! sure a pretty well filled week for the
' legislators. Both branches will meet
j to-night with calendars loaded with
iirst reading bills,"especially the Sen-
J ate, and there will be dozens of bills
! presented as the Legislative Refer
ence Bureau has been working over
time. The 1,000 mark for House
: bills will be passed to-night.
The local option hearing is sched
uled to take place on Wednesday af
ternoon in the hall of the House of
Representatives and will likely prove
to be the usual big demonstration.
The arrangements are being made by
Insurance Commissioner J. Denny'
0 Xeil, chairman of the State Local
Option committee, and Representa
tive John W. Yickerman, of Allegh
eny, sponser for the bill. Governor
Brumbaugh will lead the speakers for
the bill, others being Father J. J.
Curran, of Wilkes-Barre, president of
the Catholic Prohibition League of
America; Andrew T. McNamara, |
agent of the International Association j
of Machinists; Charles L. Huston, I
Coatesville, steel manufacturer; John ]
A. McSparran, master of the State I
Grange, and \Y. S. Landis. of Phila
delphia. secretary of the State Sun
day School Association. The speak
ers against the bill will be Joseph
O'Brien, the Seranton lawyer, and
Arthur E. Ireland, Pittsburgh labor
leader.
Whether the House law and order
committee, which will hold the hear- !
ing, will act on it that day is not |
known. The hearing will last two |
hours. The majority of the commit-1
tee is against the bill.
The Economy and Efficiency Com
mission. which is meeting to-day
with the chairmen of the Legislative |
appropriations Committees to discuss ]
estimates of departments for appro
priations, plans to finish up its work
this week. The Revenue Raising
committee, which lias been waiting
for the information which the Econ
omy Commission is to furnish, may'
I decide not to wait and to put in some |
I of its measures to test the wind.
I The State government estimates are
I $65,000,000 and the State Board of
Charities has recommended $15,000,-!
000 with $4,730,000 more to be pro
vided for care of the insane. In addi- |
i tion, the Philadelphia port, Fyma-1
; tuning swamp reservoir and other
public works are to be taken care
of.
_Tlie State revenues will run about i
$70,000,000, according to present esti-1
: mates, and it is believed that about I
! $80,000,000 will be needed to take
care of roads and schools.
k The Governor takes' the position
[that many'of the estimates are mere
ly transfers of reappropriations and
that a false impression regarding the
amount of money asked has gone
| about. •
The capital punishment hearing is
to be held Tuesday afternoon and
great interest is being shown in it.
Men of nation-wide prominence in
the prison reform movement will
speak in favor of abolition of the
death penalty and that life im
prisonment be substituted. The speak
ers will include Dean George W.
Kirchway, of Columbia Law School,
and former warden of Sing Sing;
j Warden Robert J. McKenty, of the
I Eastern Penitentiary; District Attor
! ney Samuel P. Rotan, Judge Joseph P.
1 Rogers, William Draper Lewis, Dr. J.
JP. Lichtenberger, of the University
jof Pennsylvania; Rabbi Joseph
j Krauskopf, of Philadelphia, and oth
: ers. Representative Frederick Beyer,
chairman of the judiciary general
! committee, will preside and the hear
ing will be open.
! The anthracite mine code, which is
j designed to give the hard coal field
i a set of laws like that in the bitumin
i ous region, is to be given a hearing
: Thursday morning. It is bitterly op-
I posed by the miners. Chief James E.
| Roderick, who drafted it, will be pres
j ent.
Senator Penrose is coming to at
| tend the biennial dinner of the Legis
| lative Sons of St. Patrick on Tues
j day night. Governor Brumbaugh, Ex-
Governor John K. Tener and a num- j
ber of State officials and Legislators,
I past and present, are expected to be ;
|on hand. Lieutenant Governor Frank
I B. McClain will preside.
The senator will -visit the Capitol 1
; Tuesday afternoon and possibly on
I Wednesday and will meet the Legis-
I lators.
I The House has about fifty bills on
its calendar, Including twenty-two on
I first reading, while the Senate has
over seventy bills, including forty-one
on first reading and fourteen on third.
On the House calendar for first
reading is the House bill empowering
j the Public Service Commission to or
j <ler connections between steam and
| electric railways. On second read- I
j ing are the Bennett ticket scalping j
! bill and the measure to give Philadel- t
: phia department of public works au- i
I thority three miles from the city.
In the Senate the Tompkins bill to,
abolish the death penalty is on third I
j reading with one of the bills for
i Greater Bethlehem and the Buckman
I motor boat act. The State Police
Service "ripper" bills are on the post
poned calendar.
To Give Final. Lecture on
Shakespeare and Hamlet'
Professor Frederick D. Losey, of!
Columbia University, who has given a !
course of lectures during the winter
to the city teachers on the subject of |
"Dramatic Literature," will give his,
tenth and final lecture to-night on I
"Shakespeare and Hamlet.'*
The lecture will be held in the au
ditorium of the Technical High school
and will be open to the public by a
vote of the teachers. It is generally
conceded among the teachers that this
course has been the best ever offered I
to them.
