It Pays to Think About Food.
The unthinking life some people lead
often causes trouble and sickness, as il
lustrated In the experience of a lady who
resides In Fond Du I.ac, Wis.
"About four years ago I coffered dread
fully from indigestion, always having
eaten whatever 1 liked, not thinking of
the digestible qualities. This Indigestion
caused palpitation of the heart so badly
1 could not walk up a Right of stairs
without sitting down once or twice to re
gain breath and strength.
"I became alarmed and tried dieting,
wore my clothes very loose, and many
other remedies, but found no relief.

and Postum Food Cc ffeo. I commenced
using them In place of my usual break

In one week's time I was relieved of sour
stomach and other ills attending indiges
tion. In a month's time my heart was
performing Its functions naturally and I
could climb stairs and lil'ls and wall;
long distances.
“I gained ten pounds In this short time
and my skin became clear and 1 com
pletely regained my health and strength.'
1 continue to use Grnpe-Nuts and Postum,

SILVER QUESTION VERY LIVE.
Silver Miners and Farming Classes
Are Against Gold Standard.
Mexico City, December 12.—The silver
question continues to be one of the great
topics of public discussion. It is now cer
tain that the silver miners and forming
classes will make a common case against
the adoption of the gold standard. The
miners argue that silver mines in gold
standard countries will have to shut down
at the present price of silver, while Mexi
can mines ci i continue to be operated.
Also that silver mining and agriculture
are interests with more claim on the pro
tection of the government than railways
or merchants. Meantime all prices are
being raised and there Is much anxiety
felt among the middle classes, especially
wage earners and salaried men.
The cost of living Is considered to be
out of proportion to incomes.

MAYOR DRENNEN
HAS ANOTHER HAT
THE HEADGEAR WAS FOUND ON
HIS PRIVATE DESK YESTERDAY
MORNING AND HOW IT GOT
THERE IS A MYSTERY.
When Mayor Drennen went to his of
fice yesterday morning he was mystified
to see a fine hat, apparently but little
worn, on the top of his private desk. The
chief executive of Birmingham was cer
tain no hat was there w’hen he left the
office late last night, after being in a
committee meeting for several hours, and
equally certain that none of the commit
teemen left the room hatless.
The hat is a good one, but too small for
the mayor to appropriate to his own use.
It was evidently not meant as a surprise
present, for it bore the marks of a little
wear, and the giver would have left a
card, or at least a new hat, if It had
been meant as a token of regard and es
teem. At any rate the hat w*as there, and
the owner was unknown. How it found
its way to the desk of the mayor during
the night, when the office was locked, is
not known. The window’s were closed and
the wind could not have blown It Into
the office, besides It is hardly probable
the wind would have left it on the desk
in such a position.
Evidently some one was in the mayor’s
office, but who the mayor does not know.
So mystifying is the little occurance that
the mayor seems to lean somewhat to
the theory that a member of the famous
Duncan gang Invaded his private office
to pay his respects when he was sure the
mayor was absent.
Mayor Drennen would be glad to have
someone solve the hat question which is
now puzzling him, and to have the owner
call and claim it.
