Kvcry one of these patients had
plenty of warning In that bcaringdown

abdomen, nervous exhaustion, pain in
the small of the back, pelvic eatnrrh,
dizziness, llatuloney, displacements or
irregularities. All of these symptoms
are indications of an unhealthy con
dition of tlie female organs, and'lf not
heeded the trouble may make headway
until the penalty has' to bo paid by a
dangerous operation, and a lifetime of
impaired usefulness at best, while In
many cases the results are fatal.

Mrs, Roosevelt and the wives of the
members of the President's Cabinet
form the niii'Iens iiround which the brll
II tt n t sncinl life of tlie capital revolves,
iiml I heir presence and person ntity are
of Interest nil over the land. Peculiar
dignity Is given to stale receptions by
the presence of the cabinet women as
aids to Mrs. Hoosevclt In receiving the
Invited guests, says the New York
Tribune.
The receiving line this winter pos
Resses particular Interest, In that for
the first time since the death of Gar
relt A. Unhurt the wire of a Vice Presi
dent will occupy a place at Mrs. Hooso
velt'n right. This position, which lias
been lllled some of the time by the wife
of the Secretary of State and some of
the time by Mrs. Shaw, tlie wife of
the Secretary of the Treasury, who Is
next In rank, will tills winter he lllled
by Mrs. Charles W. Fairbanks, for
merly President General of the Daugh
ters of the American Revolution, one of
the most, widely known women in tlie
United Slates. Mrs. Root, wife of the
Secretary of State, who ranks next to
Mrs. Fairbanks, is a social favorite
here as well as In New York, and will
occupy a place in the receiving line n
little above her former position, when
Mr. Root was Secretary of War.
Mrs. Bonaparte has added new inter
est and dignity to the receiving line.
She has decided to fulfill nil of her ofll-
clal social obligations and will conic
over to Washington from .Baltimore for
state receptions and olilclal functions.
According to the law governing presi
dential succession, Mrs. Fairbanks will
have at her right Mrs. Root, then Mrs.
Shaw, Mrs. Taft, Mrs. Cortelyou, Mrs.
Bonaparte, Mrs. Hitchcock and Mrs.
Metcalf, all of whom are well known
to the calling public.
Mrs. Roosevelt has Introduced many
pretty customs relative to tlie women
of the Cabinet, one of the most senti
mental being the presentation to each
ono of a beautiful hunch of Mowers Just
before each reception, to he carried
during the receiving hours. Handshak
ing is thus obviated to a great extent,
and the flowers are always selected tc
correspond with each woman's gown.
Mrs. Roosevelt meets the wives of the
Cabinet olilclals In the green parlor at
tlio White House every Tuesday morn
ing at 11 o'clock, and for an hour there
Is a general exchange of views upon
social obligations, and, while Mrs.
Roosevelt lmio.ses no duties upon tho
Cabinet women, it was nt one of these
meetings several seasons ago tlint sho
announced her preference for light col
ored gowns at receptions. Sublects
pertaining to entertainments are dis
cussed, hut, absurd rumors to the con
trary notwithstanding, there Is no ef
fort made at couching women alreadv
conversant with society.
Cabinet women are "at home" Infor
mally before .lanuary, hut the New
Year's reception, tlio first state func
tion In which they take part, is the sig
nal for their own formal cabinet or
Wednesday receptions. On account of
the almost limitless number of visit
ors, tho former custom of serving re
freshments has almost been done away
with, only the first Wednesday at homo
being marked In this manner. Other
wise a Cabinet woman pours tea only

Ho liked to get hold of stories, says a
writer In tho Christian Hndeavor

Such stories, be declared, were hopeful
signs of the times. They pointed to
ward the final abolition of armies.
He often told the story of a recruit
named Simpson Andrews. Simpson
Joined the army. Ono day ho took part
In a sham battle. He heard the general
say, before tho battle started, "Kvery
thing Is to be done the same as in ac
tual warfare."
No sooner was the first blank car
tridge llred than Simpson dropped his
gun and took to his heels.
"I ley, Andrews, where are you run
ning to there?" shouted the general, as
the recruit dashed by hliu,
"Why, sir," said Simpson, "I'm doing
the same as I would do In actual war
fare."

The Coffee Debate
Tho published statements of n num
ber of coffee Importers and roasters In
dicate a "waspy" feeling toward us, for
daring to say that coffee Is harmful to
a percentage of the people.
A frank public discussion of the sub
ject Is quite agreeable to us and can
certainly do no barm; on the contrary,
when all the facts on both sides of any
question are spread before the people
they can thereupon decide and act in
telligently. Clve tho people plnin facts and they
will take care of themselves.
Wo demand facts In this coffee dis
cussion and propose to see that tlio
facts are brought clearly before the
people.
A number of coffee Importers and
roasters have joined a movement to
boom coffee and stop the use of Postum
Food Coffee and In their newspaper
statements undertake to deceive by
false assertions.
Their llrst Is that coffee Is not harm
ful.
We assert that one In every three eof-
fec users has some form of incipient or
chronic disease ; realize for one moment
what a terrible menace to a nation of
civilized people when one kind of bever
age, cripples the energies and health of
one-third the people who use it.
We make tho assertion advisedly and
suuirest that the reader secure bis own
proof by personal inquiry among coffee
users.
Ask your coffee drinking friends If
they keen free from anv sort, of nelies
and alls. You will be startled at the
nercentneo and will very natural! v
seek to nlnco the cause of disorder mi
(something aside from coffee, whether
food, Inherited tendencies or something
eise.
Go deeper in your search for facts.
If your friend admits occasional neu
ralghi, rheumatism, heart weakness

for alleged libel, brought by the W. T.
Hanson Company, manufacturers of Dr.
Williams' fink Tills, against Collier's

garding the company and Its prepara

Tlie changing rose is a llower to
tlie cultivation of which Hie Japanese
devote much attention. It is a tiny,
but beautifully formed, llower. On
being taken suddenly out of a dark

gradually grows in intensity until it
becomes of the deepest red shade.
Tlie color vanishes again at night, or
when tlie rose Is replaced in a dark
room.

says "I can't quit" you will have dis
covered one of the slaves of the coffee
Importer. Trent such kindly, for they
seem absolutely powerless to stop the
gradual but sure destruction of body
and health.
Nature has a way of destroying 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 many.
We repeat the assertion that coffee
does harm innny people, not nil, but an
army large enough to appal the Inves
tigator and searcher for facts.
The next prevarication of the coffee
importers and roasters is their state
ment that Postum Food Coffee Is made
of roasted peas, beans or corn, and
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 have not accepted our wnger
and they will not.
We will gladly make n present of
$2r.000.00 to any roaster or Importer of
old fashioned coffee who will accept
that wager.

Please remember wo never say ordi
nary coffee hurts every one.
Some people use It regularly and
seem strong enough to withstand Its
attacks, but there is misery and dis
ease in store for the man or woman
who persists in its uso when nature
protests, by heart weakness, stomach
and bowel troubles, kidney disease,
weak eyes, or general nervous prostrn
tlon. The remedy Is obvious. 'The drug
caffeine, contained In all ordinary ef
fee, must be discontinued absolutely or
the disease will continue in spito oC
any medicine and will grow worse.
It is easy to leave off tlie old-fashioned
coffee by adopting Postum Fooil
Coffee, for in It one finds a pleasing hot
breakfast or dinner beverage that has
the deep seal brown color, changing to
a rich golden brown when good cream
is added. When boiled long enough (15
minutes) the flavor is not that of rank
Ulo coffee, but very like tho milder,
smooth and high grade Java, but en
tirely lacking the drug effect of ordi
nary coffee.
Any one suffering from disorders set
up by coffee drinking (and there Is an
extensive variety) can absolutely de
pend upon some measure of relief by
quitting coffee and using Postum Food
Co lu-e.
If the disease has not become too
strongly rooted, one can with good rea
son expect it to disappear entirely in a
reasonable time nfter tlio active cause
of the trouble Is removed and the cellu
lar tissue has time to naturally rebuild
with the elements furnished by Postum
and good food.
It's only just plain old common sense.
Now, with tho exact facts before tho

course, looking to health aud the poweo
to do things.
If you have any doubt as to tho
cause of any ache or nil you mny have,
remember tho far reaching telegrams of
a hurt nervous system trave1 from heel
to head, and it may be well worth your
while to make tho experiment of leav
ing off coffee entirely for ten days and
using Postum in its place.
You will probably gather some good
solid facts, worth more than a gold
mine, for health can make gold and
sickness lose It. Besides there's all tho
fun, for It's like a continuous Internal
frolic to be perfectly well.
