Tho hippopotamus is not generally
credited with great intellectual power,
but It scorns from the following IncI-
lent, taken from tho Popular Science
Monthly, that somewhere in that mass
jf llosh and fat resides a brain prompt
to act when necessity demands. For
Several weeks tho wonder and delight
)f an English zoological park was a
baby hippopotamus, which was named
Guy Fawkos because its birthday fell
upon the 0th of November.
The young hippopotamus was about
the size of a bacon pig, of a pinkish
slate-color, and as playful as a kitten.
It was only three days old when, as
the superintendent of the "zoo" was
watching the little fellow's antics, ll
lived to the bottom and did not rise.
The grown animals never remain mi
ller water much longor than three
minutes; so as time went on and no
baby reappeared tho superintendent
became alarmed.
When twenty minutes had elapsed
tie wave orders that the water ho
irawn from the tank to recover the
body of what he felt sure was a dead
baby hippopotamus. Ah the plug was
being removed young Guy Fawkos ap
pea red, shaking his funny little horse
like, ears, and wearing a hlppopotanilc
crln, which seemed to say, "Don't b
frightened; I'm all right. You don't
know all about mo yet." Tho younj
animals have a great power oC re
iininlng under water, which they loh
is they increase In years.
The next time baby wort to the hot
torn, however, wns not so much of -a
loke. He tried to climb up tlie sidi
jf the tank In which there wore iw
tops. He fell lk again and again
until he sank exhausted. The keen
?rs were gathered about the tank In
?reat anxiety, but unable to help. Tho
mother, however, hurried to her baby
with all her clumsy haste. She dived,
put her broad nose under Guy Fawkos
shoveled him up, and hMd him abov?
the surface until he had recovered lib
breath and was rested.
It was nearly half an hour bofor'1

TWO STEPS
The lunt One Hclim the Firat.
A sick coffee drinker must take two
tops to be rid of his troubles and get
strong and well again.
The llrst is to cut off coffee abso
lutely. That removes the destroying ele
ment. The next step Is to take liquid
food (and Unit Is Postum Food Coffee)
that has in it the elements nature re
quires to change tho blood corpuscles
from pale pink or white to rich red,
and good red blood builds good strong
and healthy cells In place of the broken
down cells destroyed by coffee. With
well boiled Postum Food Coffee to shift
to, both these steps are easy and pleas
ant. The experience of a Georgian
proves how important both are.
"From 1872 to the year 1000 my wife
and I had both been aUlleted with sick
or nervous headache and at times we
Buffered untold agony. We were coffee
drinkers and did not know how to get
away from It, for the habit Is hard to
(quit.
"Rut In 1000 I read of a case similar
to ours where Postum Coffee was usod
In place of the old coffee aud a com
nlete cure resulted, so I concluded to
get some and try It.
"The result was, after three days'
use of Postum In place of the coffee I
never had a symptom of tho old trouble
und In live months I had gained from
115 pounds to Ki.'i pounds.
"My friends asked me almost dally
what wrought the change. .My answer
always Is, leaving off coffee and drhil
ing Postum In Its place.
"We have many friends -who have
been benefited by Postum.
"As to whether or not I have stated
the facts truthfully I refer you to the
Bank of Carrollton or any business

many years and am well known.'
