LOUIS FAIR BEAT TEE RECORD? The Exhibition is Expected to Break all Previous Records. It is, of course, impossible to at- tempt with any degree of accuracy to predict the number of visitors that will pass through the turnstiles at St. Louis; but experience in matters deal- ing with exhibitions shows that the aggregate nurnlicr of visitor's that may be expected should be between fifteen and eighteen times the total population of the city in which it is held. In 1900 the Patio at the Paris Exhibition amounted to the popular tion of that city multiplied by eigh- teen; at Wolverhampton and Chicago in 1S913 the ratio wile about fifteen; while at Glasgow it W0.s sixteen. Taking the highest of these figures, and applying it to the population of St. Louis, wiiich is the foul'th largest city In the States, it is found that the expected crowd should number thirteen and a half millions, which would place it a trifle higher than the position occupied by the Glasgow show of 1901. IIIIIITTION Ri:CORDS. Although the Paris Exhibition re- cord of 1000, with its aggregate crowd equalling the combined popu- lations of the Iil'enclr, I3elgial, and Danish nations, appears fairly safe, it is quite on the cards that the record for a single clay's attendance may 'be broken e'e December 5st brings the !St. Louis show to a close.

On this clay in 1898 no fewer than 713,640 persons wended their way t� the exhibition, where the crush was so appalling that six per- sons lost their lives in the crowds. TUE SUN'S RAYS. Many know by experience that the relief afforded by tho suo's rays to cure pain -neuralgic and inflamma- tory -is effective and lasting. Those who have face ache should prove it for themselves by sitting in a sunny window, where the warmth falls full on the check. For nervous debility and insomnia the treatment of all others is rest in sunshine. Tlrol'e is no tonic like it, provided tho good effects are not neutralized by ill feed- ing. To restore a withered wen, a palsied or rheumatic 11mb, or to bring a case of nervous prostration up speedily, a most efficient part of the treatment would be to expose the limb or the person to as many hours of direct sunlight as tho clay would afford. With weals lungs let the sun fel] full on the chest for horn's. For the chilliness which causes blue hands and bad color re- sort to the sun; let it almost blister the skin, and the circulation will an- swer the attraction. It is a finer stimulus than wine, electricity or massage and we are on the verge of ing it. TWO STEPS. The Last One Helps th.e First. A sick coffee drinker must Lake two steps to bo rid of his troubles and get strong and well again, The first is to cut off coffee abso- lutely. That removes the destroying ele- ment. The next stop is to take li- quid food (and that is Postum Food Coffee) that has in 111 the elements nature requires to charge the blood corpusnlos from pale pink or white to rich, rod, and good rod blood builds good strong and healthy cells 111 place of tho broken down cells de- stroyed by coffee, With well boiled Postum food Coffee to shift to, both these steps are env and pleas- ant. Tha experience of a Georgian proves how important bout are.
