A worthy farmer had such an experience and tells about it, in a letter. He says: “For about forty years, I have had indigestion and stomach trouble in various forms. During the last 25 years I would not more than get over one spell of bilious colic until another would be upon me. “The best doctors I could get and all the medicines I could buy, only gave me temporary relief. » “Change of climate was tried without results. I could not sleep nights, had rheumatism and my heart would palpitate at times so that it seemed it would jump out of my body. | “T came to the conclusion that there was no relief for me and that I was about wound up, when I saw a Postum advertisement. [I had always been a coffee drinker, and got an idea from the ad. that maybe coffee was the cause of my trouble. “TI began to use Postum instead of coffee and in less than three weeks I felt like a new man. The rheumatism left me, and I have never had a spell of bilious colic since, “My appetite is good, my digestion never was better and I can do more work than before for 40 years. “T haven’t tasted coffee since I be gan with Postum. My wife makes it according to directions and I relish it as well as I ever did coffee, and I was certainly a slave to coffee.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Cut three cardboard washers a trifle larger diameter than the _ bolt- head (Fig. 3), and slip these over the bolt as shown in Fig. 4—one at the nead end, the other at the nut end. Slip one end of the wire between the washers at the nut end, allowing 4 or 5 inches of the end to project for connections (Fig. 4). Then starting at that end wind the- wire around the bolt, keeping the turns even and pressed close against the preceding turns. When the other end of the bolt has been reached, wind back to the nut end; then wind back to the bolt-head end a second time, and back to the nut end; and so on until four, six or eight layers of wire have been wound in place. An even number of layers will bring the free end of the wire back to the nut end. Slip the end between the two washers, and turn the nut tight so as to hold the two ends of the wire in place (Fig. 5). [f a small hole is pierced through the inner washer, the wire ends can be run through instead of over its edges. A piece of paper or cloth glued around the coil will give it a finished appearance and protect,the insulation of the wire.

The opposite end of A is screwed through a hole punched through pieces C, into a base block. The set-screws E are screw-eyes, and the contact point F is a _ rug-tack.

Nearly half of the time there were running sores around my ankle; sometimes it would be two years at a time before they were healed. There were many nights I did not sleep because of the great suffering. The sores were deep running ones and so sore that I could not bear for anything to touch them. They would burn all the time and sting like a lot of bees were confined around my ankle. I could not bear -to scratch it, it was always so sensitive to the touch.. I could not let my clothes touch it. The skin was very red. I made what I called a cap out of white felt, blotting paper and soft white cloth to hold it in shape. This I wore night and day. “I tried many remedies for most of the eighteen years with no effect. Last summer I sent for some Cutieura Scap and Ointment. The very first time I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment I gained relief; they relieved the pain right then. It was three months from the time I commenced using Cuticura Soap and Ointment until the sores were entirely healed. I have not been troubled since and my ankle seems perfectly well.” (Signed) Mrs:.
