    ADDED TO THE MISFORTUNE
Discarded Auto Simply Act ; il as De
coy to Drlng Other Ur He-
slrnbles.
Asa Paine , vice-president of the
American Automobile association , said
In St. Augustine of the automobile
industry :
"Cars are now made to last. The
rich man no longer Undo his 1907 car
unfashionable , like his 1907 coat , In
1909.
"At the beginning of the Industry a
car was antiquated In no time so
nntlnuatcd that people laughed at It.
"They tell a story In Detroit about
n dealer who had , In 1900 , an anti
quated 1S95 car. He tried vainly to
neil this car. Ho put lower and lower
price tags on It $100 , $50 , $10 and
linnlly ho put on n tag to the effect
that the car was to be given away.
"Even then there were no takers.
"So one evening , desperate , the
dealer left the 1895 car in a vacant
lot beside his shop , hoping that some
one would steal it In the night. But
when ho came down to work the next
morning , not only was the old car
Kllll there , but another one of similar
pattern had been placed beside It. "
He Forgot Something.
"la that all you have to say to mo ? "
rhc queried , looking off into space.
"Creat ! heavens , girl" said he ,
' n' ashed , "what more can I say ?
Haven't I told you that I worship the
very ground you walk on ? Haven't
I offered you every lota of my worldly
possessions ? Haven't 1 said that you
would never want for anything , that
your relatives could come and stay as
long as they wished , that I would
work my fingers bare for you , and
that I would devbto my entire exist
ence to you ? "
"Oh , yes , you said all that , " she ro'
llled , wearily , "but "
"But what ? " he asked , tremulously.
"You you didn't say right out and
'
out 'I love you , ' and that's what I
\\antcd to hear most of all. "

"Wllllo Holt seems to be developing
Into a very fast young man. "

case ? Hasn't his father been flnc-d
nearly a dozen times for exceeding
the speed limit ? "

by an older sister sobbing and crying. '
"What Is the matter ? " she asked ,
with great concern.
"Three boys have asked mo to go

"Well , my dear child , certainly that
is not such a terrible misfortune. "
"Yes ; but I told the first one 1

Whereat they marveled , but they

THE DIFFERENCE

One who knows says : "I drank cof
ce for breakfast every morning until
had terrible attacks of Indigestion
producing days of discomfort and
nights of sleeplessness. I tried to give
up the use of coffee entirely , but found
t hard to go from hot coffee to a
glass of water. Then I tried Postura.
"It was good and the effect was so
[ ileasant that I soon learned to love
It and have used It for several years.
I Improved Immediately after I left
off 'coffee and took on Postum and
am now entirely cured of my Indiges
tion and other troubles nil of which
were duo to coffee. I am now well
and contented and all because I
changed from coffee to Postum.
"Postura is much easier to make
right every time than coffee , for It Is

never use coffee now hi our family.
Wo use Postum , and nro always well. "

Clean Mm
Outside cleanliness is less than half the battle. A man may
scrub himself a dozen times a day , and still be unclean. Good
health means cleanliness not only outside , but inside. It means
n clean stomach , clean bowels , clean bleed , a clean liver , and
new , clean , healthy tissues. The man who is clean in this way
will look it and act it. Ho will work with energy and think
clean , clear , healthy thoughts.
He will never be troubled with liver , lung , stomach or blood
disorders. Dyspepsia and indigestion originate in unclean stem
achs. Blood diseases arc found where there is unclean blood.
Consumption and bronchitis mean unclean lungs.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
prevents these diseases. It makes a man's insidcs clean
< ' and healthy. It cleans the digestive organs , makes pure ,
clean blood , and clean , healthy flesh.
It restores tone to the nervous system , and cures nervous exhaustion and
prostration. It contains no alcohol or habit-forming drugs.
Constipation is the most unclean unclcanlincss. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pel
lets cure it. They never gripe. Easy to take as candy.
