North Dakota seems to have found
th? key to the question, "How shall
wo protect the people from frauds In
manufactured products?" a plan
which is applicable to foods, bever
ages, materials used in the arts, etc.
A new law has recently gone into ef
fect designed to make it impossible ,
to deceive people into buying inferior
and adulterated paint under the lin
pression that they are gutting real
paint, viz.: pure white lead and lin
seed oil.
The North Dakota lawmakers did
not attempt to absolutely prohibit
the inferior pigments, or mixtures of
piginonts. They adopted the slogan,
"Let the label toll," and then,loft to
the people to buy whichever they
wished.
Under this plan, if any one wishes
to buy a mixtureof rock-dust, ground
quartz and other cheap elements
which are found in many paints and
so-called "white leads," no one can
object; for thoy do it with their eyes
op?m. But if they prefer genuine
white load and linseed oil, they can
be sure of getting It, for none but
the genuine article can bear a label
which savs "pure white lead."
In all other States mixtures are of
ten sold aB pure white lead which
contain little?? sometimes no?real
white load. ,
" seem that were this same
principle applied to food, beverages
and all other prepared articles, where
deception is practiced upon the buy
er, the question would be solved. It
would leave us free to buy what we
pleased, but would protect us from
unwittingly buying what we did not
want.

Result* of I'xresaivr Coffee Drinking.
It it remarkable what suffering
some persons put up with just to sat
isfy an appetite for something.
A Mica, woman -ays: "I had been
using coffee since 1 was old enough to
have a "up of my own at tho table,
aii'1 from it I have suffered agony
hundreds of times In the years past.
"My trouble first began in the form
of bilious roltc, coming on every few
weeks and almost ending my life.
At every attack for 8 year6 I suf
fered in thlB r/ay. I used to pray for
death to relieve mo from my suffer
ing. I had also attacks of sick head*
ache, and bogan to sufTerKfrom ca
tarrh of tho stomach, and of course
awful dyspepsia.
"For about a ycai I lived on crack
ers and water. Believing that coffee
was tho cause of all this suffering,
I finally quit It and began to use
Poatum Food Coffee. It agreed
with my stomach, my troubles hare
left mo and I am fast g&inlug my
health under Its use.
"No wonder I condemn coffeo and
tea. No one could be In a much more
critical condition than I was from the
uso of ooffee. Somo doctors pro
nounced It ciiWcer, others ulceration,
but none gave me any relief.-' But
since I stopped coffee and began Pos

heartily recommend It for all who
