One hunA man who owns a fine coffee plantation in Jamaica said: "Four years ago I discovered that coffee was ruining my health and I quit and have been using Postum ever since. Experience taught this man that he could . not drink his own hiah-grade coffee. Its active drug Cflcn irritates th nervous system, interferes with digestion, and trouble is sure to follow. Some folks may take the hint and change to Postum. It is absolutely free from drugs,. and when well made, that is, boiled 15 minutes, it has a delicious 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.

ALDRICH INVADES ENEMY'S COUNTRY

Speaks to Banker in Des Moines, Home of Insurgent Chief Cummins. URGES CURRENCY REFORM BOSS OF THE SENATE ASKS THE HELP OF IOWA IN MAKING THE UNITED STATES LEADING WORLD'S FINANCIAL CENTER. Des Moines, la., Nov. 12. Senator Aldrich. talking last night to the Bankers club, discussed the necessity for the reformation of the banking and currency laws with the view of preventing panics, and went into details concerning the operation of central banks in Europe. This being the home of Senator Cummins, it had been expected that Mr. Aldrich would make some reference to the senator who has shown an inclination to antagonize his policies, but Aldrich's only allusion to Mr. Cummins were were courteous and were made in connection with a mention of the name of the late Senator Allison. Asks Iowa to Help Him. Mr. Aldrich spoke of the growing importance of the west as affording the best reason why the people of Iowa should desire a stable banking system and he appealed to them to join with him in devising a plan that would place the United States in advance of all other nations as a financial center. "In Germany,' 'he said, "all notes taxed, or untaxed, must be covered by an amount of specie equal to one-third of the total issue and an amount of bankable bills equal to the other twothirds. Those bills are what we would call commercial paper. They must bear the names of two solvent parties and must not run for more than ninety days to answer the standard fixed for bankable bills. In France they have a provision that what are bankable bills there must bear three names, and must be written the same limit as to time os the German bills. In Great Britain the custom is to require two names of English citizens, one of whom must be acceptor. "Of course, you are aware of the difference in terminology of our commercial paper and theirs. Our people use promissory notes, either with a single name or with indorsers. No such thing as a promissory note is known in the ordinary experiece of any of those countries." Not Urging Foreign Plans. Mr. Aldrich explained that in referring to foreign banking systems he had no intention of urging the adoption of any of them. "If we have any credit organization at all we propose that it shall be an organization which shall be the servant and not the master of existing banks. I concede freely that any institution or organization which we may adopt must be one that can be fitted into the existing system, and any changes that are at all radical in their nature and I am inclined to think that in some respects we shall have to make some changes that will be scientific and radical in their charactermust be made with a view of adjusting them to our existing system." OBITUARY. Marie Eliza Schneider, daughter of Henry and Anna Schneider, was born July 10, 1859, was confirmed June 1, 1873 by Rev. Henry Wickemeyer in St. Paul's Lutheran church, was united in marriage to Geo. B. Werts, Aug. 12, 1891. She fell asleep in Jesus, Nov. 7, 1909, aged 50 years, 3 months, 27 days. She is survived by her husband, one daughter, her aged father, three Eisters, Mrs. Geo. Ward, Mrs. Walter Krone of Cambridge City, Mrs. Henry Kluter of this city, and one brother, John Schneider of this city, and a large circle of sympathizing friends. Th Word "Pageant."
