THIRTEEN YEARS
Unlucky Number for Dakota Woman.
The question whether the number
**13" is really more unlucky than any
other number has never been entirely
settled.
A So. Dak. woman, after thirteen
years of misery from drinking coffee,
found a way to break the "unlucky
•spell." Tea Is just as injurious as cof-
fee because it contains caffeine, the
drug in coffee. She writes:
"For thirteen years 1 have been a
nervous wreck from drinking coffee.
My liver, stomach, heart—In fact, my
whole system being actually poisoned
by It.
"Last year I was confined to my bed
for six months Finally It dawned on
me thai coffee caused the trouble.
Then 1 begun using Postutn instead of
coffee, but with little faith, as my
mind was In such a condition that I
hardly knew what to do next.
"Extreme nervousnes and failing
eyesight caused me to lose all courage
In about tv. o weeks after I quit coffee
and began to use Postum I was able
to n ad and my head felt clear. 1 am
Improving all the lime and 1 will be a
attong, well woman yet.
"I have fooled more than one person
with n delicious cup of I'ostum. Mrs.
8. wanted to know where 1 bought my
fine coffoe, I told her my grocer had
It and when sin- found <>uf It was i'os-
tum she lias used it ever since, and
her nerves are building up line
"My brain is strong, my nerves
uteady, my appetite good and best of
all, I enjoy sin h sound, pleasant sleep "

THINKS MARKETING ONE OF LOST ARTS
Man> influential and prominent
women of New York city are aetlveljp
cooperating with the city commission
In luMhcriiig the adopted plan for the
creation of public markets Among
the most dithusturth who Is w tiger
ing a systematic campaign lor the cre-
ation of such a system, Is Mrs Kliner
lllack, the International peace advo-
cat f
"Our plan now before the <it\ au-
thorities is a feasible one said Mr
Orlggs "and one which both Mr Mil-
ler and myself have given months of
study to after long Invest g allon of lb*
subject in thi* and othei countries.
We aie asking for flw Moi '.is, con veil
lent to all lines of transportation, in
Little West Twelfth street The land
would cost around $:!,f>00,000 and th*
buildings about that much more
"Such markets are certain effective
ly to reduce the cost of living and at
the same time encourage farming la
terests. As It Is now, the actual loss
to farmers Is great, especially Ui such cases where, because of congested
freight conditions, owing to Inadequate handling lacillties the -tuff Is allowed
to rot before it reaches the market."
Mrs Kliner Pluck, who has made a iomprehenslve study of foreign
markets, declared that the American woninn. if she wants earnestly to help
reduce the cost of living, must follow the example set by her Kuropesn sister
and go to market
"Marketing is practically a lost art in the cities of this country," she
declared. Women will shop for half a day for a yard of ribbon at a bargain
sale, and then rush to the delicatessen or little nearby grocery, or perbapf
use the phone to get their food supplies'

JUDGE SWANN ON THE "INNER CIRCLE
i
"They worship no Clod save graft,
and they bow down at the shrine of
their idolatry'"
In these words Judge Kdward
Swann of fhe court of genera', sessions
In New York, summed up the police
situation Judge Swann has been a
careful and patient student of the po-
lice system for many years. He has
upon numerous occasions seen fit to
speak about police matters from the
bench
He has listened, with astonishment
at times, to the testimony given by
policemen and police detectives at the
trials of men charged with being com-
mon gamblers. And upon more than
one occasion he has heard the foreman
of a jury return a verdict of "Not
guilty" in gambling cases where the
district attorney had to rely almost ex
clusivelv upon the testimony of po-
licemen ami their stool pigeons
Judge Swann was asked if in his
opinion and from Information that had
come to btm tn bis HNclal capacity nnnUilliiji houses n(l <Uao *lerl* ic- >ifs
could exist unless the police stood for such places and for the violation of
:he law
You cannot make me believe that such resorts could run wide open,
or run at all, for any length of time, unless tho police knew about it." ho
said. "1 wish to say right here that the police department is as a rule
is made up of a lot of honest, courageous, fearless men. 1 am very fond of
the every-day policeman Put In this present inquiry that has been brought
about by the brutal murder of Herman Rosenthal it Is shown that graft
exists In the police department today"
