Says the Judge: "My brain grasps the points of a case more easily when I'm chewing PICNIC TWIST. I suppose it's be cause of the gentle stimulation that PICNIC TWIST gives without the after effects of "strong" tobacco. , "Have you ever noticed how many great iurists chew ? Well, there's nothing better to oil the wheels of justice than PICNIC TWIST." Have you ever wished for a tobacco that you could keep on chew ing without feeling that you were over-chewing? For a long time you've really been looking for PICNIC TWIST, with its lasting sweet taste, and true tobacco satisfaction with no come-back. 1 BY THE UNIVERSITY Compare PICNIC TWIST in taste, looks, convenience or any other way, with any dark "heavy" tobacco. Then you'll know the advantage of chewing the light, mild, mellow part of the leaf, the only kind that goes into PICNIC TWIST. There are few better preservatives of the teeth than PICNIC TWIST.

HAS MESSAGE FOR Too Importat to Trust to Mails or Cables, Says Messenger From Swedish King. New York, Nov. 25. Per Ostberg, special messenger of the kins; of Sweden reached New Tork yester day on the steamship Helllg Olav from Chrlstlansand, bearing a mes sage from Kins Ouauv to the Swedish legation at Washington, which he said was too Important to trust either to the malls or the cable. He left at once for Washing-tor The messenger disclaimed knowl edge of the contents of the packet he carried. He said It had been sealed personally by the king and was en trusted to him :ut a few hours before the steamer sailed. He had only a few minutes to spare when he boarded the vessel at Chrlstiansand. Everything possibl was done to en able him to catch a train quickly for Washington after the steamship ar rived here. Mr. Ostberg thought that the mes sage did not deal with Sweden's neu trality status. "The government has taken extraordinary precautions to prevent the transportation through Its dominions of supplies Intended for Germany," he said. "So far as I know Sweden will remain strictly neutral. Everything tends to prove this." The Helllg Olav was stopped by the Itrltlsh cruiser Drake north of Shet land Island and permitted to proceed only after the cruiser's officers had examined her passenger list and manifest. between the hours of 9 and 10 o'clock in the morning. There will be no de liveries at all during the day by either the city or rural carriers. Postorttce Will Be Closed.

All doctors seem to agree that In tuberculosis and chronic throat and bronchial affections, lowered vitality and lost energy are con ditions to be overcome before Improvements can be hoped for. One of the constituents of Eckman's Alterative Is calcium (lime) so combined with other Ingredients is to be easily assimilated by the average person. To this, In part, Is due Its widespread success In the treatment of these distressing and disastrous troubles, fly preventing, as well as arresting the ravages of the tubercle bacilli, Eckman's Alterative performs a service which even eome ethical practitioners have acknowledged to their patients. We do not make wholesale claims for It, but our knowledg. of what It has done warrants tbe statement that IT CAN HELP.
