We tried it once but it didn't taste as good as I had been told it would, so we didn't werve it any more." My friend asked pleasantly, whether we ever had trouble with our coffee or tea and wus told that mow and then the coffee was “sloppy” or burned and occasionally the tea was unfit to drink, but then you know, I said, we know coffee and tea can be made good, eo it is some failure with the cook if they come to the table unfit.” “Ah, there's the point,” my friend exclaimed. “Now we bave been using Postum steadily for about a year and we know its magnificent qual- ities as a nourishing beverage, but mind you, I have seen it served at my table once or twice almost unfit to drink, and we got onc package last summer that was over cooked at the factory and was not good, but which the grocer replaced. These incidents do not change the fact that Pos- tum is a déliclous, healthy and nourishing bever- age, as proven day after'day in our family. “You should not hastily condemn a new thing upon one imperfect trial as you deprive yourself of benefits which a fair test would make yours.” “These comments made an impression and acting on her advice I hunted up the package of Postum, brewed some myself for breakfast the next morn- ing, and it really was os deliclous to my taste as @ high grade coffee. I noticed that morning that the heavy, disagreeable feeling (usual after break- fast with coffee) was absent. Thi set me think. ing und wondering if it was true, after all, that coffee did slightly poison my liver and stomach and make me feel so. I concluded to quit coffee and tea a while, anyhow, and try Postum, and am glad to say that for that, or some other rea- son, I never better in my Ife than I have since the change. “Just as good Postum Cereal are words used to defraud :!

The National Union Soldiers and Saiiors’ Morument Association held a meeting last night at Union Veteran Legion Hall, Perfected its organization. Dr. Frank T. Howe presided, and Dr. H. J. Penrod acted as secretary. A large number of the 100 charter members was present and the greatest interest was manifested in the object for which the association was formed, which is the erection at the na- tional capital of a monument to commemo- rate the services of the Union soldiers and sailors who fought in the war of the re- bellion, and particularly those who sacri ficed their lives in defense of the govern- ment. The constitution and by-laws, which had been submitted and discussed at a previous meeting, were, with a few minor amend- ments, adopted, and six additional charter members were elected. The nominating committee, of ‘which Capt. Williams was chairman, submitted a report, suggesting a ltst of names for the various offices of the association, and this report was adopt- ed, and the secretary authorized to cast the unanimous vote of the association for the gentlemen named. ‘The officers selected were as follows: President, Dr. Franklin T. Howe; first vice president, Henry E. Williams: second vice president, Luke Kelly; third vice presiden Alex. Ashley: and Israel W. Stone, Benj. F. Sparhawk, Jesse H. Robinson; (three years) W, D. Mack, James M. Miller, Chas. 8. Herron; (for two years) M. E. Crell, Andrew Geddes, James Edgar; (one year) John Middleton, John A. Joyce and A. 8. Taber.. Dr. Howe maée a brief address, thanking the association for the honor conferred,xnd outlining in a general way the great possi- bilities of the work of the association just formed. He believed that every officer selected would enter heartily !nto the work, and that the result of their labors would be manifest in the placing in this city of a monument worthy of :he memory of those who defended the government, and cf those engaged in its erection, at no distant time. Col. John A. Joyce then submitted the draft of in address to the country, urging support of the objects of the association and co-operatioh in its effor:s on the part of all patriotic persons. This address was referred to the board of directors for such action as might be decmed proper. After addresses by Col. Montague, Capt. Mack, Col. Luke Kelly, Capt. Ashley, Col. Stone and others, the association adjourned until the third Tuesday in June. —_.—_. FIFTEENTH SESSION.

Judge Bradley yesterday afternoon de- cided, in the case of ex-Priest McNamara against John B. Williams, secretary and agent of the Brookland Library and Lit- erary Society, that a contract which con- templates the renting of a place where an admission fee is to be charged on Sunday is void. The case came before Judge Bradley on appeal from a judgment rendered by a justice Of the peace against Mr. Williams for $30. McNamara cia'mel to have con- tracted “for_the rental of the Brookland town hall for a lecture therein on Roman- ism, Sunday, December 2), 1396. Subse- quently, upon representation that the lec- ture was to be a bitter arraignment of the Roman Catholic Church, the use of the hail by McNamara was refused. There- upon he sued: for breach of contract, and judgment was given in bis favor the justice of the peace, Mr. Williams nott): 1 an appeal. Attorney William Birney, representing Mr. Williams, asked Judge Bradley to direct a verdict in favor of his client, con- tending that under the act of Charles 11 and the Lord's day law of the Mary legislature of 172%, any contract contem- plating a performance for gain en Sunday is void, and Judge Bra-lley sustained Mr. Birney’s contention, directing a verdict against McNamara. This is claimed to be the first judicial determination of this point in the District. a VETERANS TAKE AN OUTING. p Union Soldicrs’ Alliance Enjoy a Ban- et at Marshall Hall.
