“It's a serious thing, Vcrena,”
sighed Mrs. Upmore, “to be the wife
of a man who holds a public office.
It demands so much of his time and
keeps him away from his home.”
"I know just how you feel, ma'am,”
said the elderly domestic. "My first
husband was the grand imperial out-
side guard of the Amalgamated and
Solidified Order of Fuzzy Guzzlers,
and sometimes he was that busy tryin’
to remember the signs and grips that
1 couldn't get a word out of him all

Bobby is the son of a minister and
has had the experience of “moving”
four times in the space of his eight
years’ life. Some time ago an elder- e

and the course of the conversation
turned to Heaven and Robby was
asked concerning tlie abode of the
blest. “Yes,” said the youngster, with
a sigh of deep weariness, “1 know. It's
the last place we’re going to move to.”

The curious effect of slow daily poi-
soning and the gradual building in of
disease as a result, is shown in num-
bers of cases where the eyes are af-
fected by coffee.
A case in point will illustrate:
A lady in Oswego, Mont., experi-
enced a slow but sure disease settling
upon her eyes in the form of increas-
ing weakness and shooting pains
with wavy, dancing lines of light, so
vivid that nothing else could be seen
for minutes at a time.
She says:
“This gradual failure of sight
alarmed me and I naturally began a
very earnest quest for the cause.
About this time 1 was told that cof-
fee poisoning sometimes took that
form, and while 1 didn’t believe that
coffee was the cause of my trouble, I
concluded to quit it and see.
“I took up Postum Food Coffee in
spite of the jokes of Husband whose
experience with one cup at a neigh-
bor’s was unsatisfactory. Well. I
made Postum strictly according to di-
rections, boiling it a little longer, be-
cause of our high altitude. The resin
was charming. I have now used I "►
