. Is just pure Mocha and Java
prepared in a new way. The cof
iee berry is cut up (not ground)
by knives of almost razor sharp
nesa into small uniform particles.
Thus it is not crushed, as by the
fAd method of grinding, and the
little oil cells remain unbroken.
The essential oil (food product)
cannot evaporate and is preserved
indefinitely. This is one reason
why a pound of Barrington Hall
will make IS to 20 cups more of
full strength coffee than will any
coffee ground the old way; why
it excels all other coffee in flavor
and why it will ketp perfectly
antil used.
But the main thin? about Barr
ington Hall Coffee is that it can
be used without ill effect by those
who find ordinary coffee injures
them, because the yellow tannin
bearing skin and dust (the only
injurious properties of coffee) are
removed by the "steel-cut" pro
cess. A , delicious coffee not a
tasteless substitute, v

WE SMITH-JONES AFFAIR.
Two Versions of Just Exactly How th
Incident Occurred.
- ' ACCOBDIXO TO 6MITH :
"Oh, say: 1 met Jones. You know
lories, of course. Well, 1 heard that
lie had called me a liar the other day
ta conversation with another man. and
fo l was just laying for him. I have
n Idea be suspected something was
VP, as he began to act sheepish right
away. But of course I didn't let on at
Irst I just looked Lira calmly and
coolly In the eye. Then I said. 'Jones,
aid 'man, I heard something about you
the other day that 1 couldn't believe.
t said this In a calm, even voice, but
Jones must have known something was
ap, as 1 could see him begin to trem
ble. 'I hope it was something good,'
aid Jones, with a quaver in lfes voice.
As for me, I was just begin uing to
enjoy myself. Oh, well.' 1 replied,
with a pleasant offhand smile, that
ienends entirely on the point of view.
Now, I may not be good or I may be
good.' I smiled genially this time,
while Jones, turne1 pale; I could dis
tinctly see him growing pale. That,
f eourse. Is a matter of opinion, but
1 wish, Jones-here I looked bim fair
ly and squarely in the eye 'if you have
anything of au intimate and persona!
mature'- By this time Jones was shak
ing all over. I just lingered on thos
words while I faced him down. Oh, it
was too rich. 'Why. Jones, old man.
Just say it to my face, will your and
with this, in my easiest and most care
tess manner. I left him. You see. it
wasn't necessary to do ' anything to
Jones. It wits the withering sarcasm
f what 1 said that fetched bim. I can
teli you it was great fun simply great!
And he won't forget It either. He'll
know better next time."
AOCOJSDINO TO JONES :
Do you know Smith? Well. I was

day. t had culled him a liar, and some

have told htm. I assume he was told.
lie came up to me nnd ularted to say
something, but lie was so nervous I
suspected at onec. that he had heard

a sheepish smile and said, i heard
something about you the other day

guled the words and was so embar
rassed that actually I felt sorry Tor
him. I felt as if I'd like.to help him
out. 'Well.' fitld t In my most encour

what do you think of that? I was Just
hopiug lie would come right out and
say, 'Jones, you called me a liar.' But
he wasu't up to It. Of course I would
have apologized, for, as I said. I meant
him no harm. But that's the way some
folks are built They drop their nerve

Russian Fairy Talt.
A book of fairy tales was once the
cause of the expulsion and consequent
ruin of 173 persons at Poltava. A pu
pil at one of the state schools there
was caught In the act of reading this
book of fairy tales, which had been
prohibited by the censor on the ground
that certain of the tales might be ap
plied to Russian conditions and Rus
sian politics. The boy explained that
the caretaker of the school buildings
hnd leut him the book. The principal
of the school reported the caretaker to
the police, and ou the ground of this
denunciation the offender was sent to
Siberia.
The officials of the Institution, to
gether with several parents of pupils,
were so indignant at the conduct of
the principal that they drew up a pro
test describing his denunciation as a
mean and despicable act The only
consequence was that the officials lost
their posts and. together with the resi
dents who had signed the protest, were
expelled from the province of Foltava
for three years. The order of expul
sion was extended to all the relatives
of the offenders, so that 173 persons
were sentenced to this severe punish
ment on account of a book of fairy
tales which In other countries is given
to every child to read. .
Whittier'i Simple Life.
If Whlttior had cared for money or

simple life to be found out of town.
What he might have regarded as a
state of wealth did uot overtake bim

"Snowbound.' and it was ten years
later before he yielded to the wish of
Bostonians to do him honor. Here was
a man' born and reared in hard circum
stances, who made slippers at a profit
of 8 cents a pair while he enjoyed his
brief term at Haverhill academy, who
had little liking for social or academic
pursuits, who spent more of his time
away from the so called literary cen
ters, and yet who lived to enjoy such
fame as has come to not more than a
dozen other New Englandcrs. The se

EASY TO CURE CATARRH.
Just Breathe in Hyomei, the Dry Air
That Kills the Germs.
You can do exactly what G. J.
Stercrs did by using Hyomei. Read
this:
"After having suffering from chron
ic catarrh for years, for which I tried
various remedies without success, I
became almost discouraged. t After
reading about Hyomei, I decided to
make one. more effort to rid myself
of the dread disease, and to my great
delight I found the use of two bottles
of the Jnhalent sufficient to produce a
complete cure. I now take pleasure
in recommending this remedy to all
sufferers from catarrh." G. J. Stercrs,
Crown City, Ohio.
We don't simply say Hyomei will
cure catarrh, but we say that T. F.
Laurin, the druggist, guarantees it to
cure catarrh, or money back. He does
more he guarantees it to cure asth
ma, bronchitis, hay fever, coughs and !
colds. A complete Hyomei outfit, in
cluding inhaler, costs only $1.00, and
extra bottles, if you afterwards need
one, will cost but SO cents. Hyomei
is a pleasant dry air treatment. You
just breathe it in, and as it passes
over the inflamed membrane, it kills
the germs of catarrh, and allays all
inflammation.
