Its active drug —caffeine—irritates the nervous system, interferes with digestion, and trouble is sure to follow. Some folks may take the hint •nd change to Postum. It is absolutely free from drugs, •nd when well made, that is, boiled lfi minutes, it has a deli cious taste similar to the mild, high-grade Javas, with the natural vital food elements of the field grains that repair the damage done by coffee. “There's a Rea. son.” Read that "little health classic,” “The Road to Well- ville,” in pkgs. ■B ney, of 163 Love street, n contractor, and were used by him In hi* work. They had been graxlng In an old fle|d, near the scene of the accident, and dur ing the night climbed up the embank- tnent to the track.

Nichols secretary and J. A. Goode treasurer. By ELIZABETH ELLICOT POE To The Georgian: Ur. Wilmer did positively make the statement uscrlbed to him In the story. took notes on his speech, nnd In speaking of Bishop Williams* reputed statement that the "Bible Is the most fruitful source of Infidelity In the world." he said: "I myself will say the same thing and then I can’t be stopped, because I am speaking of a member of the Upper House. I do bsliavs that the Bible has been the most fruitful source of infi delity in the world.” As to the hisses, this was not a part of my story, but certainly a decided wave of disapproval swept around the church at Ur. Wilmer’* remarks, and I have heard that apeech very much de nounced by his brother council mem- Iters, It certainly gave everyone the impression of an attack on the Divine Inspiration of the Bible, an emphasis of the claims of "higher criticism." Ur. Wilmer certainly did make the remarks accredited to him. E. E. POE. Richmond, Va., Oct. 14, 1907.
