The distinction of first appointing a woman postmaster does not belong to America, nor la the employment of women in the postal service a new idea. As early as 1&48 a woman post­ master was appointed to look after (he mails of Braine le Comte, an im­ portant town of France. In the try­ ing times of the Thirty Years' war, the principal office in the postal serv­ ice of Europe was held by a woman, Alexandrine de Rue. From 1628 to 164$ she waa- ia charge of the mails of the German empire, the Nether­ lands, Burgundy and Lorraine. She was known as a master general of the mails. In America, Elisabeth Harvey was the first to hold a place in the postal department. She had charge of the letters in Portsmouth, N. H.p in the beginning of the seventeenth cen­ tury. A halt' century afterward Lydia Hill was placed in charge of the post- office in Salem, Mass. Ct/M&'WG tfiro rue Cao V'lgr < Art of Saving? ' - r ; V%*" X believe that if somebody could ln- Sjrent tmtqtte ways of saving money the -fmblic would have an assured future, •lien, women and children would re­ gard saving as a game and play it 'jjv1th all their heart. There are penny favlngs banks where newsboys and ootblacks carry fheir tiny savings, |>ut other children regard their penny %ank at nome with „ unfriendly eyes. Thare are working girls who put away their five-cent pieces and fatten their small bank accounts by walking in­ stead of riding, and making other petty sacrifices. But the majority of working girls spend as fast aa they can earn, and declare that they can­ not help it. One reads of a man who began his career by regarding every dollar as a worker and getting all the profit he could. With that quaiat conceit in his head saving became a pleasure, and he won riches without realizing that it was a struggle. I know of more than one woman who receives each night from her husband every dime he has received in change through the day, for he is careful to avoid spending such a piece of money.

PRESSED HAftO »<* Coffee's Weight on Old Aga> When prominent men realize the in­ jurious effects of coffee and the change in health that Postum can bring, they are glad to lend their testimony for the benefit, of others. A superintendent s public schools In North Carolina says: "My mother since her early child* hood, was an inveterate coffee drinker and had been troubled with her heart for a number of years, and. com­ plained of that 'weak all over* feeling and sick stomach. "Some time ago I was making an of­ ficial visit to a distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. I no­ ticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of the coffee, and asked him concerning It. He replied that it was Postum. "I was so pleased with it, that after the meal was over, 1 bought a pack­ age to carry home with me, and had wife prepare some for the next meal. The whole family liked it so well, that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. "I had really been at times very anx­ ious concerning my mother's condition, but ws noticed that after using Postum for a short time, she felt so . much better than she did prior to its use, and had little trouble with her heart and no sick stomach; that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much improved. This continued until she was as well and hearty as the rest of us. "I know Postum has benefited my self and the other members of the fam­ ily, but not in so marked a degree as in the case of my mother, as she waa a victim of long standing" Read "The Road to WellvUle,** IB pkgs.

WHAT IS PAINT? The paint on a house is the extreme outside of the house. The wood is simply a structural under layer. That Is as it should be. Unprotected wood will not well withstand weather. But paint made of pure white lead and linseed oil is an invulnerable armor against sun and rain, heat and cold. Such paint protects and preserves, fortifying the perishable wood with a complete metallic casing. And the outside ot the house is the looks of the house. A well-construct­ ed building may be greatly depre­ dated by lack of painting or by poor- painting. National Lead Company have made it possible for every building owner to be absolutely sure of pure white lead paint before applying. They do this by putting upon every package of their white lead their Dutch Boy Painter trademark.
