Wo usually write our own ndi., but
will let a user of "llnugli on Rats" for
extermination of Praino Dogs svrito this
one. Mr. II. B. Mosely, a ranchman, un
der vlato of Feb. 4th, 1011, writes as fol
lows from Hill Ton, Douglas Co., Col
orado: IIo soys: "I have lead your ad
vertisement of 'Rough on Rats;' it not
only rends Rood but it is good. I hnvo
been troubled twenty years with Prnirio
Dors; hivo used many so-called exter
minators to no nurnose. Not loner since
I used a poisoned wheat, prepared by an I
espert who had mado it a study for years, j
but it did no good for me; they ate it, but j
chirped for moie. Tho 'Dogs' svero eating
up a field of corn for me; I was nt my
wit's end what to do; I could onlv get
tho small 15c. size hero of 'Rough on
Rats.' I mixed it with com and applied;
many of them chirped no more; I then
mixed it with corn meal nnd placed it
on days not windy, near their holes.
Rough on Rats is by fnr the best thing
I have tried, but I fancy I am using it .
unnecessarily strong, or you tmy suggest I
better way than 1 know to mix or u-o it. I

"I was a great coffeo drinker from a.
child, and thought I could not do with
out it But I found at last It was do
ing mo harm. For years I had been,
troubled with dizziness, spots before
my eyes and pain In my heart, to
which was added, two years later, a
chronic sour stomach.
"Tho baby was born 7 monthB ago.
and almost from the beginning, It, too.
Buffered from sour stomach. Sho waa
taking It from mo!
"In my distress I consulted a frlond
of moro experionco and oho told mo
to quit coffeo, that coffee did not
mako good milk. I havo slnco ascer
tained that it really dries up tho milk.
"So, I quit coffeo and tried tea and
at last cocoa. Out they did not agree,
with mo. Then I turned to Postum
with tho hnppiost results. It proved
to be tho very thing I needed. It not
only agreed perfectly with baby and
myBolf, but It Increased tho flow of
my milk.
"My husband then quit coffeo and
UEed Postum nnd quickly got well of
tho dyapopsla with which he had been
troubled. I no longer suffer from the
dizziness, blind spoils, pain In my
heart or bout stomach.
"Nosv wo all drink Postum from my
husband to my seven months' old
baby. It has proved to bo the best
hot drlnlt wo hnvo ever used. Wo
would not glvo up Postum for tho best
coffeo we ever drank." Name given
