to the seedy Bohemian “Why is It
we wonder"

plained “I've got so used to never hav-
ing any money to being always broke

of my rope and there's nothing left
for me that I’ve made up my mind to
make the best of it and take my medi-
cine with a smile"

about”

Dropped a Valuable Hint About Coffee
“For about eight years” writes a
Mich woman “I suffered from nerv-
ousness — -jjart of the time down in bed
with nervous prostration
“Sometimes I would get numb and it
would be almost impossible for me to
speak for a spell At others I would
have severe bilious attacks and my
heart would flutter painfully when I
would walk fast or sweep
“I have taken enough medicine to
start a small drug store without any
benefit One evening our grocer was
asking husband how I was and he
urged that I quit coffee and use
Postum so he brought home a pkg
and I made it according to directions
and we were botfc delighted with it
“So we quit coffee altogether and
used only Postum I began to get bet-
ter in a month’s time and look like an-
other person the color came back to
my cheeks I began to sleep well my
appetite was good and I commenced
to take on flesh and become interested
in everything about the house
“Finally I was able to do all my own
work without the least sign of my old
trouble I am so thankful for the little
book ‘The Road to Wellville' It has
done me so much good I haven’t
taken medicine of any kind for six
months and don’t need any
“A friend of ours who did -not like
Postum as she made it liked mine
and when she learned to boil it long
enough ber's -was as good as mine
It's easy if you follow directions"

Home of the Icebergs
Almost all the Icebergs seen In the
north Atlantic during June are
products of the coast of Labrador
formed from the Ice fields that bad
filled the Indentation! of that coast
the previous winter July's Icebergs
come from further north in the vicin-
ity of Baffin Land those of August
come from still further north and
though fewer in number than those
of the earlier summer are larger In
individuality From the coast of
Labrador may be seen an endless
procession of these Ice mountains
coming out of the north and taking
their way majestically southward un-
til they lose their being in the warm-
er waters and climate of the south

FURIOUS HUMOR ON CHILD
Itching Bleeding Sores Covered Body
—Nothing Helped Her — Cuticura
Cures Her in Five Days
“After my granddaughter of about
seven years bad been - cured of the
measles she was attacked about a
fortnight later by a furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body
especially the upper part of it forming
watery and bleeding sores especially
under the arms of considerable size
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night
using all the remedies we could think
of Nothing would help We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty-
four hours we noted considerable im-
provement and after using only one
complete set of the Cuticura Remedies
in five consecutive days the little one
much to our joy had been entirely
cured and has been well for a long
time Mrs F Ruefenacht R F D No

Motherhood may be the crowning
blessing of a woman's life or It may
bring grief and sorrow Mrs M J
Wight of 170 Seventh Street Auburn
Maine rclatea her experience after the
birth of her daughter la 1901 as fol-
lows: "I was all run dowu at tho
time the baby came and did not Im-
prove In health rapidly after I was
pale thin and bloodless My stomach
distressed me being full of gas all tho
time and my heart fluttered so that I
could scarcely breathe
“Finally I remembered that friend
had recommended Dr Williams' Pink
Pills to me so I commenced using
them I gaiued la- strength rapidly
while the baby throve also When I
expected my next child I started tak-
ing the pills again as a tonic and
strengtbener and had no such diffi-
culty as before I got up better and
my strength came back much sooner
“A year agn last winter I had an at-
tack of rheumatism in the hands which
went from one hand to the other The
joints swelled up and were so stiff I
could not move them The pain ex-
tended up through my arms and
shoulders I felt sick enough to go to
bed but did not do so This attack
lasted for several months I tried sev-
eral remedies but finally came back
to using the pills which had done me
so much good before and found that
they benefited me almost at once I
havo not been troubled since”
