- ,—
partaent at Washington recently sent
Uj all the postmasters In the country
a .1st of questions asking for certain
information, says the New York Sun,
to be used in the preparation of the
government Blue Book. One of the
questions in the ll3t was, "What are
your marital relations?"
The object of this particular ques-
tion was to find out whether the post-
masters are married, single, widowed
or divorced. But some of the rural
postmasters did not understand, and
many answers were received in which
the persons addressed endeavored to
give a clear and lucid explanation of
tho status of their married life. One
postmaster briefly stated that his do-
mestic affairs were "Fine and dandy."
Another, not so fortunate, replied:
"Fairly middling," while a third filled
in the blank space with two words:
"The worst"
Helped Him.
A physician out west was sent for to
attend a small boy who was ill. He
left a prescription and went away.
Returning a few days later, he
found the boy better.
"Yes, doctor," said the boy's moth-
er, "the prescription did him a world
of good. I left it beside him, where
he could hold It In his hand most of
the time, and he can almost read it
now. You didn't mean for him to
swallow the paper, did you, doctor?"

COFFEE DRINKING
"My baby niece was suffering from
that terrible torture, eczema. It waa
all over her body but the worst wa*
on her face and hands. She cried and
scratched all the time and could not
sleep night or day from the scratch-
ing. I had her under the doctor's
care for a year and a half and he
seemed to do her no good. I took her
to the best doctor in the city and he
said that she would have the sorea
| until she was six years old. But if I
had depended on the doctor my baby
would have lost her mind and died
from the want of aid. But I used
! Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
and she was cured in three months.

"I believe 1 would rather bo down-
right ugly than have a face that re-
mind* every Tom, lilck and Harry of
nomo one he knows or has known,"
«ald a comely Houthern girl to her
companion across the tea table. "Only
yesterday 1 had a most embarrassing
experience, and It Isn't the first I've
hud because 1 look like some one
else," she went on. "I got Into a sub-
way train at the Grand Central station
and took a cross seat opposite a woman.
Hhe looked at me and startod percop-
Mbly; then she leaned closer to mo
and looked squarely In my face and
her own turned very pale. Suddenly
she put her muff to her eyes and
sobbed until the tears rolled down
over her coat. I was bo uncomfortable
and at such a loss what to do that I
got, up at the nearest slivtlon and
waited for another train. I suppose

A Doctor Says it Weakens the Heart
"In my opinion," says a well known
Gorman physician, "no one can truth-
fully say that coffee agrees with him,
as it has long since been proven that
caffeine, contained in coffee, is an in-
jurious, poisonous substance which
weakens and degenerates the heart
muscles.
"For this reason the regular use of
coffee, soon or late, causes a condition
of undernourishment, which leads to
various kinds of organic disease.
"Convinced of this fact, I have often
sought for some healthful beverage to
use Instead of coffee. At last I found
the thing desired in Postum. Having
had occasion to forbid people using
coffee, whose hearts were affected, I
have recommended Postum as a bev-
erage, since It Is free from all Injuri-
ous or exciting substances. I know
this from results In my own family,
and among patients.
"Hundreds of persons who now use
Postum in place of coffee, are greatly
benefited thereby." "There's a Reason."

Gertrude, aged four, had been to the
matinee. Later she tried to describe
the play to a grown-up friend.
"They drank wine," said Gertrude,
"and then they all went out"
"Well," said the friend, expectantly,
"and what happened next?"
Gertrude worked her small brain
hard.
"I guess," she said, "they eplt it

The Lost Ring.
Woman lived in Rackinsack, had a
ringworm on her back,
Said she wouldn't care a snatch, but
was where she couldn't scratch.
Therefore she could not endure, had to

Betrayed by His Language.
Have you any visible means oI
support?" asked the policeman
sternly.
Me? Yes, sah. I sure has. As a
wash lady mah wife is out of Bight"
"Then she's not visible," rejoined
the policeman, and the march to the
patrol box began.
This Is No Joke.
Hunt's Cure has saved more people
from the "Old Scratch" than any other
known agent, simply because it makes
scratching entirely unnecessary. One
application relieves any form of itch-
ing skin disease that ever afflicted!
mankind. One box guaranteed to cure
any one case.
