We usually consider -our 'best friends those who treat us best: Some persons think tea and cof- fee are real friends, but watch them carefully awhile and observe that they sire two of the meanest of all enemies for they stab one while pro- fessing friendship. Tea and coffee contain a poison ous drug—caffeine—which injures the delicate nervous system and frequently sets up disease in one or more organs of the body, if its use is persisted in. "I had heart palpitation and nervousness .for four years and the doctor told me the trouble was ceased. by coffee.: He advised me to:Tr leave' it off, but I thought I, could not," writessa Western lady. ' "On the advice of a friend -I tried Postum 'and it so•satisfied me I did not care for coffee after a few days' trial of Postum. "As weeks went by and I con- tinued to use Postum my weight increased from 98 to 118 pounds, and the heart trouble left me. I have used it a year now and am stronger than I ever *as. I can hustle up stairs without any heart palpitation, and I am free from nervousness. "My children are very fond of Postum and it agrees with them. My sister liked it when she drank it at my house; now she has Postum at home and has become very fond of it. You may use my name if you wish as I am not ashamed of prais- ing my best friend-Postum."

Red is said to produce restlessness and excitability, and no specialists will allow a highly nervous patirent'to remain long in a roam that is either papered or fur- nished in that shade. And dress- makers complain that to work for any length of time upon a. garment that is tinted red will cause the seamstress to become tired, have a headache, and feel nauseated.

The domestic life of the American lynx is not often exposed tt the observation of a .sympathertie hu- man being. All' the more interest- ing is this little incident, of which a eonitriburtor to the Outing Maga- zine, was a witn esus :, I watched'a lynx family moving out one day. It was ,an interesting sight. I was cruising up a moun- tain road to a clump of cedar tim- ber, and had no weapon except my ax. While I was creeping silently through the timber, I heard a cat mewing. I seated myself on a fall- en log just at the edge of the dense timber, and waited. Presently I decided that the sound came from a fallen hollow cedar, a few rods from where I sat. A lynx appeared at the opening, Looked back into the hollow, and mewed encouragingly.She was joined by two half-grown kittens that stood blinking at the bright sunlight. . The old one "moved for- ward afew feet and called to her brood. They toddled -out, apd joined her. She played with them, cuffed them about, and bit at 'them, mewing and purring the while, ex- actly as a tabby does with her fam- ily. • In a short time she moved on again, stopped, and coaxed them to follow. It took her half an hour to lead them into the protection of the forest. My ax was not an effective weapon, but had I been otherwise armed, I could not have brought myself to molest the mother and her young. Do Your Looks Quite Satisfy You?

Callaghan, a well- known young lady in Middleton, writes as follows ; "I was affected for two years with a rash, and ugly looking pimple's that spread over my face.
