Tho presldont of cno of tho state associations of tho W. C. T. U., who naturally does not want her name giv en, writes as follows: "Whenever I was obliged to go without coffee for breakfast a dull, distracting headache would como on before noon. I discov ered that, in roallty, the nerves were crying out for their accustomed stim ulant. At ovoning dinner I had been taught by oxperionco that I must refrain from coffoo or pass a sleepless night. In tho summer of 1900, while visiting a physician and his wife I was served with a most .excellent coffee at their dainty and elegant table and, upon inquiry, discovered that this charming beverage was Postum Food Coffee, and that tho family had been greatly ben efitted by leaving off coffeo and using Postum. I was so in lovo with it, and so pleased with tho glimpse of freedom from my ono bondage of habit and so thoroughly convinced that I ought to break with my captor, that upon my return homo I at once began tho uso of Postum Food Coffeo and have con tinued it ovor since, now more than a year. I don't know what sick headache is now, and my nerves aro steady and I sloop sound generally eight hours reg ularly. I used to become bilious fre quently and require physic, now sel dom over have that experience. I have learned that long boiling is absolutely essential to furnish good Postum. That makes it clear, black and rich as any Mocha and Java blend.

Uniden tified Exchange. Worth While. Tis easy onough to bo pleasant When life flows along like a song; But the man worth while is tho ono who will smile When everything goes dead wrong. For the test of the heart is troubld, And it always comes with, tho years, And tho llfo that is worth the honor of earth Is tho smilo that comes through tears. It is easy enough to he prudent When nothing tempts you to stray: When without or within no voice of sin Is luring your soul away. But It's only a negative virtue Until it is tried by fire, And the llfo that is worth, the honor of earth Is the one that resists desire. By the cynic, the sad, the fallen, Who had no strength for the strife, The world's highway is cumbered to day. They make up the item of life. But the virtue that conquers passion, And tho sorrow that hides in a smile It is these that are worth the homage of earth, For wo find them but once in a while. Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
