about accents to a Philadelphia.
Coming to the British accent, be said:
"The leading characteristic of the
British accent Is, of course, the drop
ping of the 'h.' The dropping of the
'h' is very unfortunate. It causes In
numerable embarrassments.

With Irritating' Skin Humor-Hair Urgan
to Fall Out Wonderful Kesult
From Cutlcura Remedies. '
"About the latter part of July my whole
body began to itch. I did not take much
notice of it at first, but it began to get
worse all the time, and then 1 began to
get uneasy and tried all kinds of bathe and
other remedies that were recommended
for skin humors, but I became worse all
the time. My hair began to fall out and
my scalp itched all the time. Especially
at night, jus4: as soon as I would get in
bed and get warm, my whole body wouUl
begin to itch, and my linger nails would
keep it irritated, and ,it was Mot long be
fore I could not rest night or day. A
friend asked me to try the Cuticuia Kenne
dies, and I did, and the first application
helped me wonderfully. For about four
weeks I would take a hot bath every night
and then apply the Cuticura'Ointmrnt lo
my whole body, and . kept getting better,
and by the time I used four boxes of Uu
ticura I was entirely cured and my hair
stopped falling CJt. D. K. Blankenaliip,

8clenee In Destroying Echoes.
"It is possible to make echoes," said
an architect. "It Is, indeed, easier to
make than to destroy them.
"In the past men built their great
temples and cathedrals with no
thought of acoustics. Hence, when
the preacher preached, echoes rolled
freely amid the groinlngs of the root,
town the rows of sculptured columns
and round and round the nave.
"With wires strung here and with
tapestries spread there many of the
echoes of the old world buildings have -been
obliterated. There are echo ex
pertsbuilders, acquainted with the
science of acoustics, whose specialty
is echoes' destruction. Sometimes
their tasks are bard.
"To-day an architect takes thought
of the echo. Ills building .s construct
ed so as to exclude this Intruder. And
knowing how to exclude it bo knows
how to welcome It also. I have fre
quently, In landscape work, put up
r;siner houses and arranged rocks so
as to create an echo there."

R. G. Dun's "Weekly Review ol
Trade" says: Total distribution o(
Spring merchandise received a check be
cause of the heavy snowfall and sever
storms in many sections of the country,
but some offset is noted in renewed in
quiry lor Winter goods, and there is no
interrupt ion to the activity of shipping
departments. Confidence in the future i
remarkably bright, and the outlook
would be far better than ever before at
this season if the fuel uncertainty were
removed. Manufacturing plants operate
close to maximum capacity in the lead
ing industries, and it is nil evidence ol
no little significance that many mills
cannot undertake deliveries before 1007.
While those are extreme eases, it is a
common thing to find production engaged
for several months in advance.
One of the best features of the iron
ami steel industry is the steady demand
for steel rails.
No decrease is noted in the activity
of textile mills, producers exhibiting
persistent confidence in the future.

"'Who cut your hair last, old man?'

The Coffee Debate.
The published ttateinents of n num
ber of coffee Importers und roHSters In
dicate a "waspy" feeling towards tis,
for daring to say that codec Is harmful
to a percentage of the people.
A frank public discussion of the sub
ject is quite agreeable to us and can
certainty do no harm; 011 the contrary
when all the facts on both sides of any
question ore spread before tho people
they ran tbereupou decide aud act In
telligently. ;ive the people plain facts snd thev
will fake rare of themselves.
We demand facts In this coffee dis
cussion nnd propose to see that the
farts nru brought clearly before the
people.
A number of coffee importers snd
roasters hare joined n movement to
boom coffee and slop the use of I'os
turn Food Coffee and in their news
paper statements undertake to deceive
by falsa assertions.
Their first Is that coffee Is not harm
ful. We assert that one In every three
coffee users has some form of incipient
or chronic disease: realize for one mo
ment what a terrible menace to a na
tion of civilized people, when one kind
of beverage cripples the energies snd
health of one-third the people who
use It.
We make the assertion advisedly nnd
suKgest that the reader secure his owu
proof by peikoiiul inquiry among coffee
user.
Ask your coffee drinking trlends U
they keep free from any sort of aches
and alls. You will be startled at the
percentage and will very naturally seek
to place the cause of disorder 00 some
thing aside from coffee, whether food,
luheiited tendencies or something else.
Go deeper In your search for facts.
If your friend admits occasional neu
ralgia, rheumatism, heart weakness,
stomach or bowel trouble, kidney com
plaint, weak eyes, or approaching ner
vous prostration Induce him or her to
make the experiment of leaving off
coffee for 10 days sud using I'ostum
Food Coffee, and observe the result. It
will stsrtls you and give your friend

Few Australians In America.
There are only a few Australians
distributed throughout tho United
States, and their number le so small
that in most of the official bulletins
they come under the head of "un-
i classified.
There are In New York city less
I than 500 Australians and the major-
I lty of these are such "in name onlv '
having been born In Australia during
the temporary residence of their par
ents. One such case Is that of Mme.
Melba, the prima donna, who was
born in Melbourne. Australia, in 1886,
though her home Is In England.
The only city In the country In
which there Is any considerable num
ber of Australians Is San Francisco,
In which there are about a thousand.
Chicago has some 300, and Oakland, a
suburb of San Francisco, 250. Once
every year the Australians in New
York city assemble for fraternal meet
ing, and It is found usually that the
larger number of those present are
traveling Australians.
Advice Discounted.
Senator Burrows was asked for ad
rice recently by a newspaper corre
ipondent. He gave the advice, but
ifterward, smiling and shaking his
lead, he said.
"Advice is a thing I am always
:hary about extending. It Is, you
Know, so cheap, so easv.
"A boy, the other day, was pushing
t heavy pushcart up a hill. The hill
was steep, the boy thin. He bent for
ward at the work till he was almost
horizontal.
"'HI, boy,' called an old man, 'push
Ihe cart up the bill zigzag, from side
to side, and you'll find it will go eas
ier.' The boy snarled back:
"'Not so much o' yer darn advice
3ive us a shove.' "
says "I csu't quit" you will have dis
covered one of the slaves of the coffee
Importer. Treat such kindly, for they
teem absolutely powerless to stop the
gradual but sure destruction of body
and health.
Nature lias n way of destroylnc a
part of the people to make room for the
stronger. It Is the old law of "the sur
vival of the fittest" at work, and the
victims are iimuy.
We repeat the assertion that coffee
does lui mi many people, not nil, lint uu
army laru enmiiili to appall the inves
tlgator and leurc-ber for fuels.
The next prevarication of tho coffee
Importers and roasters Is their state
ment that I'ostum Food Coffee Is made
of roasted peas, beans or corn, und
mixed with a low grade of coffee and
that It contains no nourishment.
We have previously offered to wager
$100,000.00 with them that their state
ments are absolutely false.
They luive not accepted our wager
and they will not.
We will gladly make a present of
yS.VOOO.W to Huy ronster or Importer of
old fMshloneil coffee who will accept
that wager.
Free Inspection of our factories end
methods is made by tbousamls of peo
ple each month and the coffee Impor
ters themielves are cordially invited.
Both I'ostum and Grape-Nnu are ab
solutely pure and made exactly as
statod.
The formula of Postutn and the an
alysis made by one of the foremost
chemists of Boston lias been printed on
every package for many years and Is
absolutely accurate.
Now as to the food value of Postum.
It contains the parts of the wheat berry
which carry the elemental salts such
as lime, Irou, potash, silica, etc.. etc.,
used by the life forces to rebuild tho
cellular tissue, and this Is particularly
true of the phosphate of potash, also
found In Grape-Nuts, which combines
In the human body with albumen aud
this combination, together with wator,
rebuilds the worn out gray matter la
the delicate nerve centres all over the
body, and throughout the brain and so
lar plex,us.
Ordinary coffee stimulates In an un
natural wsy, but with mauy people tt
slowly and surely destroys aud does
not rebuild this gray substuuee so vi
tally Important to the well-being of
every human being.
These are eternal facts, proveu, well
authenticated and known to every prop

Cori oral James Tanner, commander
In chief of the G. A. R., was con
demning those .who appear to regard
the national uniform as a disgrace
those who object to seeing non-commissioned
soldiers or sailors ,ln the
parquet of a theater or the restaurant
of a fualilonablo hotel.
"Such people," said tho veteran,
"make me think of a recruiting ser
geant whom I used to know In Rich
mondvlllc a true patriot.
"This sergeant at the beginning of
the civil war urged a rich man's son
to enlist.
" 'Come on, Hank,' he said earnest
ly. "Come on and Join the New
Yorks.'
"The rich man's son sneered.
"'Join the New Yorks!' he cried.
'Not I! I'd rather enter a lunatic asy
lum than the New Yorks.'
" 'Well,' said the sergeant, 'no doubt
you'd feel more at home thorn.' "
Uncomfortable Mode of Travel.
Thomas Nelson Page Is spendins
the winter at Nice.
Nice Is the largest city on the Ri
viera and next to Monte Carlo It Is
the gayest and the most beautiful.
Mountains rise behind the town. In
deed, In that country the shore of the
sea is altogether mountainous and the
railroad traversing It has Innumerable
tunnels.
Mr. Page on a February afternoon
was taking tea out of door.! on the
warm and sunlit pier that Is o lied the
Palais do la Jetee. He compl. Inod of
railroad journey from Genoa that he
had made and a young Englishman
said: "Well, you enmo through a
lovely country at least."
"Perhaps I did," said Mr. Page, "but
it was uncommonly like traveling
through a flute."

I'leade remember we never say ordi
nary coffee hurts everyone.
Some people use it rvKularly nnd
seem strong enough to withstand Its
attacks, but there Is misery and disease
In store for the man or woman who
persists In Its use when uature pro
tests, b.v heart weakness, stomach and
bowel troubles, kidney disease, weak
eyes, or general nervous prostration.
The remedy is obvious. The lrug caf
feine, contained In all ordinary coffee,
must be discontinued absolutely or tbe
disease will continue iu spite of any
medlclno and will grow worse.
It Is easy to leave off tho old fash
ioned coffee by adopting Postum Food
Coffee, for In It one finds a plestlnjr
hot breakfast or dinner beverage that
has the deep teal brown color, chang
ing to a rich golden brown when good
cream Is added. When boiled long
euough (IS minutes) the flavor la not
that of rank Itlo coffee but vory like
tbe milder, smooth and high grifde
