Tho wife of a certain well known physician in Washington, D. u., concluded that coffee was the cause of the doctor's sleepless nights. She says, "He would retire and lie for hours unable to sleep a wink. I thought perhaps he was nervous from tho coffee which he drank at his meals and sugested that he try Postum.To my surprise ho objected most decided ly. I said nothing but tho next morn ing made Postum coffee instead of the regular coffee and gave that to tho doctor. I made it according to direc tions and it had a beautiful coffee color and flavor. Ho drank his cup and re marked that the coffee was unusually good that morning and asked for more. From that time I served him Pos tum at overy meal, and in the course of a week to two he showed such re markable signs of improvement in health, and strength that I told him ha had been drinking Postum from tho time he had begun to get better. You never saw such a surprised man. Ho said, 'Well, if the good coffee I have had is Postum, and leaving off regular coffee has made such a change In my health, I never want any other land In ray house.' Since then he rec ularly prescribes Postum to many 6r his patients and with good results." cS, SS& bjr Post,,m Co- BK" Tho Farm 272 Tho Pan-American Conference... 273 "Unconscious Anarchy" 271 Christian Advocate on Trusts.... 277 Mr. Cummins' Error 278 An Inquiry Answered 270 A Lover of Liberty 281 "A World Power" 281 Tho Producer's Share 282 Tariff Concessions to Cuba 283 Tho Elections at Hand 284 uno juy.o upon au Tho Negro Question 285 The Money .Question Again 294 Hoar, is Consistent 293 Death.Without Hope. . . ; 297 An Interesting Letter 298 The Elections of 1901.; 290 Organize Dobatlng Societies 301 Severe on Bolters 302 Ex-Governor Taylor's Case 303 Suspicious Rojolclng 305 "Tho Peoplo Sovereign" 306 Our Duty to the Boors 308 Worklngmen at tho Polls 311 Tho Gold Stronghold Captured.. 312 Democratic Leadership 313 A Prophecy that Failed 315 A Democratic Duty 317 The Yellow Peril 321 Exit, Jones of Nevada 324 Can It Bo? 32J A Stable Dollar ; 327 Let Our Ideas Conquer 329 Anti-Anarchy Bills 330 The President's Message 334 Markham's Poetry 340 Tho Prince of Peace . 340 A Word as to Gifts 342 Tho Meaning of Bimetallism 344 Questions for Debate 347 Too Great an Advantage 350 Admiral Schley '... 350 Now Year's Day Resolutions 351 The Philippine Tariff 352 Secretary Gage's Report 353 Tho Export Tax Decision 354 Branch Banks 355 As Others See Us 356 Getting Down Rapidly 357 Republicans Prevent Discussion.. 358 Unjust Discrimination 359 An Instance of Tax Dodging 362 Monopoly Defined 361 Financial Legislation ; 365 Steadfastness 360 Hill's Tompting Offer 360 Responsibility for Anarchy 371 Is a Storm Brewing? 375 Lafayette's Epitaph 376 Perry Belmont's Defeat 377 A Change of Base 378 Tho Nicaraguan Canal 379 That Populist Influence 381 Why Not State of Jefferson? 382 Manifest Destiny 383 Trusts Retard Progress 385 -.
