It hardly pays to laugh before you are certain of facts, for it is some times humiliating to think of after w ards. "When I was a young girl I was a lover of coffee but was sick so much the doctor told me to quit and I did but after my marriage my husband begged me to drink it again as he did not think it was the coffee caused the troubles. "So I commenced it again and con tinued about 6 months until my stom ach commenced acting bad and chok ing as if I had swallowed something the size of an egg. One doctor said it was neuralgia and indigestion. "One day I took a drive iith my husband three miles in the country and I drank a cup of coffee for dinner. I thought sure I would die before I got back to town to a doctor. I was drawn double in the buggy and when my husband hitched the horse to get me out into the doctor's office, misery came up in my throat and seemed to shut my breath off entirely, then ieft all in a flash and went to my heart. The doctor pronounced it ner vous heart trouble and when I got borne I was so weak I could ot sit up. "My husband brought my supper to my bedside with a nice cup of hot cof fee but I said: 'Take that back, dear, I will never drink another cup of cof fee if you gave me everything you are worth, for it is just killing me.' He and the others laughed at me and said: "'The idea of coffee killing any body.'

I have no more stomach trouble and I know I owe it -all to -Postum in place of coffee. "My husband has gained good health on Postum. as well as baby and I, and we ail think nothing is too good to say about it.",, Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich BEGINS NEW TERM IMPOSING INAUGURATION PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. OF CREAT CROWDS WITNESS AFFAIR The Whole City a Garden of Bios soms. Fully Two Hundred Thou sand Visitors View the Parade and Other Exercises. WASHINGTON The most bril liant and imposing inauguration which the citizens of Washington have ever prepared has passed into the history of the republic. Theodore Roosevelt did not ride to the capitol, hitch his horse to a shade tree, enter the building and take the oath of office booted and spurred. The tradi tional Jeffersonian simplicity was re placed by a pageant which has not been surpassed in the annals of the nation. For a week the District of Colum bia has been the host of the union. Term after presidential term its citi zens without regard to party have united with enthusiasm in preparing an inauguration that shall fittingly show forth the national respect for the executive office. For the unpara lelled demonstration of Saturday the sole credit is due to these citizens, the officials of the War and Navy de partments and the officers of the army and navy. It was the first national inaugura tion since the civil war that the south sent up its warriors andits state offi cials. Men who fought each other for years under different flags; men who fought together in the war with Spain under one flag; executive officers of the states who upheld the stars and bars, and those who stood for the flag of the union marched together in re view before their common president, a soldier of the republic. Fully 200,000 visitors gazed with wonder and unbounded enthusiasm at the district's handiwork for honoring the president. The whole city was a garden blos soming with flags. For a week ever advancing waves of color have been 3weeping through all its streets. Not only was the line of march artistical ly decorated to a degree never before attained, but no street in the city was without its national colors. Acting un der a suggestion from the inaugura tion committee, the board of educa tion had requested its 50.000 school children to see that each one of their homes displayed the flag. It was a re 4iiest responded to by an army of chil dren. This apotheosis of the colors tvas one of the most striking elements ot a gigantic scheme for expressing tho national respect for a president. The committee on street decora tions, street illumination and parks and reviewing stands worked together with artistic taste and transformed two miles and a half of the city's noted avenue into a fitting highway for the nation in its countless rcpre rentative bodies to march as an es cort to its president. The ball in the evening was a granU affair. In deference to the Sabbath, all ceremonies stopped at midnight, but it was well toward morning before the lights were turned down on the most brilliant spectacle that Washington had- seen in its long line of notable occasions. Till long after midnight the gathered thousands walked, won dering and enthusiastically, on Penn sylvania avenue, through long reaches of fairyland. With the small hours the lights faded and the citizens rested from their months' of labor. CZAR ISSUES A RESCRIPT. Representative of People to Be Given an Advisory Vcice in Government. ST. PETERSBURG The emperor nas issued a rescript to the minister af the interior, stating that he has decided to convene an assembly of elected representatives of the people to elaborate and consider legislative measures. In the Alexandra palace at Tsars Koe Selo, surrounded by the ministers and a few members of the court and with the empress at his side, Emperor Nicholas affixed his signature to a re script, containing his majesty's de cree to give elected representatives of the people an opportunity to express their views in the preparation of the laws of the empire. This is the auto racv's final response to the agitation n favor of participation by the people in government which has brought Russia in the last few months almost to the brink of revolution. No change "n the regime of autocracy is involved for the present and it means neither i constitution nor a (national assem bly. At the same time it recognizes the principle of the people's right to be heard regarding laws under which they must live. Whatever the result may be the document is sure to mark an epoch in Russian history as im portant as the signing of the emanci pation manifesto, the twenty-fourth anniversary of which it was intended to signalize. Panama Bill Declared Off. WASHINGTON At a final meeting of the conferees on the Panama canal bill after the senate conferees had re ported verbally the inability of the representatives of the two houses to get together and were sent back to try again the futility of attempting compromise was admitted and the conferees decided to ask for their dis charge. If this decision is accepted by the two houses, and it is the general impression that it will be. the effect will be to kill the canal bill entirely. Is Suing the Subscribers. ST. LOUIS, Mo.
