For weakness, debility, anemia and general lack of tone are a serious handicap to anybody. Those who drink tea or coffee are often sufferers from these conditions. Tea and coffee con tain caffeine, a substance which has a decided stimulant action on the nerves. Each cup of strong coffee contains about as large a dose of caffeine as your doctor would ordinarily give to a very sick person. You can readily see that the effect of giving this stimulant regularly to a well person might finally have a tendency to make him sick.

In other days, when other years Were drawing to a close, We joined the general joyous cheers That on the midnight rose. "A year has gone-, that make a score We've left behind," we said. But what of that! There's plenty more "ahead." "TbereV life to live and sights to see And fortunes to be made; Bring on the years that are to be, And let the old ones fade! We'll loolP- on . newer, brighter scenes, And, while youth has.its fling, Why wonder-what the future means , to bring!" . ;, A host of days has come and gone, Like soldiers in review, And etill the same parade moves on A little faster, too. , The years of our allotted span ' In turn go swinging past, Each year a trifle briefer than the last.
