IMITATION COFFEE.
The Name Not Fnncied by Postum
Cereal Company.

Coffee drinkers may be interested to know
the opinion of some competent physicians II
| regard to the use of Postum. the grain drink
in place of coffee. Let Ii be understood
that the manufacturers do not decry the use
of coffee by healthy persons but there Is q
great army of intelligent men and women oi
the present day who cannot stand the
steady, daily poison OF coffee, tobacco and
whiskey without feeling the effect in some
serious bodily arrangement.
DR.. Il. II. Cissady. editor OF the Medical
Argus" Minneapolis Mimi, writes, en-
closing the money for a third case, and Is
kind enough to add: II fully coincide with
your views In regard to the use OF coffee and
tobacco by neurasthenics nervous patlents).
| am using Postum every day ana am great
ly pleased with IT.
great many people who are not keenly
sensitive In their coffee tastes state that
Postum tastes 80 much like coffee that they
did not notice the difference when 1t Is
served at breakfast.
The makers do not claim, however, that It
has exactly the same taste as the finest
coffee
1t has exactly the same color and is just
as piqu1nt and pungent In its taste as the
finest Mocha coffee. but the taste Is distinct
and belongs to Postum alone.
1t is made by the Postum Cereal Co.. Lin,
OF Battle Creek, Mich and Is not an imi-
tatlon of any drink, but stands on its own
footing as "A wonderfully palatable and de-
licious table drink, thoroughly healthful
and nourishing and is made strictly of the
grains. II is impossible for any one to
Judge OF the perfection OF the product with
out careful personal test OF it,
There are thousands OF people using Pos
tum, the health coffee, In place OF coffee,
and who have been benefited in their health
to an extent that commands their esteem
and warm friendship for Postum.

GREAT WISDOM OF AN IOWA JURY.
Prisoner Pleads Guilty and Is Found
Not Guilty.


CRESTON, Ia, Nov 0.-(Special. Dur
ing the present term of the district court
Lewis Glen of Shannon City was tried for
burglary. Glen had confessed to the deed,
and in the prosecution the defense sub
mitted evidence corroborating the defend
ants confession. The attorneys for the de-
fense set up the plea of imbecilty and en-
deavored to establish the irresponsibility of
the youthful burglar The case was con-
cluded and the jury retired to deliberate.
1t returned verdict declaring that Glen
was sane, but acquitting him OF the crime
which he had confessed. Judge Tedford ex-
pressed his surprise at the verdict, and said
If he had the power he would discharge the
jury. Clem was released by virtue of the
jury's findings, but his liberty was of short
duration. This morning he was arrested
by the federal authorities for robbing the
Shannon City postoffce. Sheriff Davenport
will take him to Des Moines the latter part
of the week.
The attempt to establish the irresponsi-
bility Of Ed Nolan, another Shannon City
youth, cousin of Clem, failed. Nolan forged
a note. The defense set up the plea of men,
tai responsibility and by expert testimony
made strong case. The state fought this
plea hard. The case was given to the jury,
which remained out twenty-four hours, re-
turning a verdict of guilty.
A. w. Thresher arrested for embezzle-
ment. was dismissed by the grand jury.
The jury discovered that it had no ju-
risdicton, the alleged crimes having been
committed in other counties The grand
jury has finished its labors and adjourned,
reporting a few indictments which have
Eot been made public.
During a session of the court a pathetic
scene occurred. 1t was in connection with
the Cunningham divorce case. Mrs. Cum
ningham asked for legal separation on ac-
count of the iEhuman treatment of her
husband. The custody OF the children
was considered Mr.. Cunningham was will
ing that his wife have possession OF all the
children excepting a 10-year-old son. The
judge placed the little fellow on the stand
and asked him, in case of separation of his
parents, with which would he like to live The
little fellow looked at his father and turn
ing to the Judge said he wanted to stay with
his mamma. When asked why, he said be-
cause his papa beat him with a leather
strap. The child laid his head on his
mothers breast and commenced to sob. The
court ordered that the mother be given eus-

Mrs. Chris Larsen Injured.


Mrs. Chris Larsen, wife of the Lower
Main street grocer, was knocked down and
badly injured by a man riding a horse.
Mrs. Larson was crossing the street, and the
rider came along at full speed. The woman
made several attempts to get out of the way
and the man made fully as many to con-
troll the horse or turn him aside Neither
succeeded and the woman was knocked
down. One Of the horses hoofs struck her
in the face and another on the shoulder
The force of the collision and the blows
Knocked her senseless. She was picked up
and carried into her husbands store. An
examination showed that several teeth had
been knocked out by the blow in the face
and her collar bone broken by the other
blow. Medical examination showed that
the injuries, although painful, were not
dangerous.
The rider of the horse proved to be a
hay merchant who has a store near by.
He had just traded for the horse and was
trying him. The animal became unmanage-
able and ran away.

little town of Blunt, in the eastern portion
of this county, reports about dozen former
residents who left in past years "to find
better states" announcing their return in
the spring to again locate in South Dakota
after several years trial of their new loca-

season shipped out eighty three cars of fat
cattle and sheep, and forty-fve cars of
wheat Besides which, the farmers, without
a creamery, have sent out since June l.
$500 pounds of butter. The men who have
stayed right here and paid close attention to
business have been the winners every time
and those who went out to find greener
fields are glad to get back again.
