WHY LADIES LIKE COFFEE
Though Many Admit 1t Hurts Them.

Many ladies have so great liking for
coffee for breakfast that the meal seems
flat and unSavory without it; but the
muddy complexion which is almost q sure
accompaniment, is great trial and the
question is seriously discussed many and
many times over i'll ones mind whether it
is possible To give over the coffee and
gradually get back the lost complexion. or
keep on with the coffee and get on with
the bad skin and make the best OF it,
The diSordered stomach and liver some
times bring on more seriBIs troubles To
quit the use of coffee is the only true re-
lief; it contains the same poisonous aka
loids as tobacco, strychnine and morphine
although less in volume. One can use the
delicious hot food-drink, Postum Cereal, at
meals and never miss the coffee. 1t browns

Nature quickly rccoyers when coffee is
left off and the natural health coffee is
used in it's place. Healthful sleep is
again enjoyed and nerves, stomach, liver,

fused to adopt the same, and the

The Pond will case, which has been on trial in the Superior court at Hart ford before Judge Thayer and 8 jury for some weeks past, came to an end Satur- day evening at 8 30 o clock, the jury then rendering verdict, which they had been required by the judge to recon sider three times. The verdict was "that the will in question was hot Charles NJ Ponds will and is therefore invalid |" Oa the first verdict Friday night the jury stood 2 to 5 in favor of breaking the will Mr Pond left no children and his will was contested by his brother, Anson Pond, of New York city, the sister. Mrs Clara Pond Porter. not joining in the contest. Mir Pond bad been, in his best years, Q man of great mental ability and strength of character, a state senator and treasurer, among other offices, and prom inent in business circles, but in the last years of his life he used liquor and nor phine to excess and believed more or less in spiritualism and the Ouija board revelations.
 By the will a valuable farm on Pros- psct Hill was given to the city of Hart ford for park, some smaller bequests were made, and one-half of the residue, about $25O. GOO. was given to the city of Hartford for the maintenance of the park and the other half to the children of An son Pond and Mrs Porter.
 A'motion in arrest of judgment and to set aside the verdict, on the ground of the misconduct of the jury, one jury man having declared that the jury would not reconsider, after being directed to do 30 by the court, and two having talk ed about the case to outsiders, and on the ground that the verdict was against the evidence, were argued before Judge Thayer yesterday.
