The "coffee-Never-Hurt Me- People

me ''COHee- Nover- n urC-Me' People.
Some famous brain workers have
made a welcome discovery along the
line of recovery of health by the proper
selection of food. Several were of the
Coffee never hurt-me" kind, but, as
an experiment, tried leaving it off ten
days, and the use of Postum Cereal
Food Coffee in it's place. A definite
and decided improvement in health is
practically certain to attend such a
change.
Look carefully into the state of
health of the individual who knows
that coffee don't hurt me-" and you
are almost sure to find some form of
physical all of functional disturbance
perhaps muddy complexion, or weak
eyes. incipient heart failure. kidney
trouble, liver or bowel disorders, or
some form of weakness that shows
plainly enough by the cry for relief
sent up from some organ of the body.
Why does the dismissal of Coffee and
the use of Postum bring help? Exper-
iments in artificial digestion show
clearly to the scientific investigator
that coffee arrests digestion, and &C.
cording to one authority, allows only
81 per cent of the food to be digested
That strikes at the very keystone to
the arch of health. Failure in diges-
ton means lack of good blood, and
therefore lack of food for the nerve
centers. AS the nerves control the or
gans of the entire body, one can readi-
ly understand that disorganized ner-
vous> system may show effect in any
part of the body. Therefore, a removal
of the cause will allow nature to right
herself. A powerful assistant to nature
is Postum Cereal Food Coffee, compos-
ed of albumen. phosphates, gluten,
ETC., from which nature builds in the
delicate tissues of the nerves.
Postum aids digestion without drug
ging, and furnishes a concentrated
liquid food as we'll as most delicious
morning Coffee.
If the reader has ever failed to make
Postum satisfactorily, it will be found
that to allow it to boil Is minutes af-
ter boiling commences will solve the
problem, as it must be so boiled to ex-
tract taste, color and food value 1t
is the only original food coffee with a
pleasant coffee flavor Many imita-
tons of Postum are now on the market.
The only palatable ones thus far tested
prove to be made of a low grade of
coffee, and some other articles, not
withstanding the loud claims that they
are pure"

Rev. T. Dewitt Talmadge, the most
renowned preacher in the world, has
been cured by DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy.
Rev. DR.. Talmadge, undoubtedly the
greatest living divine, occupies in the
hearts and minds of the people posi-
ton of pre- eminent esteem and regard.
No other preacher is SO widely known.
no other clergyman is SO distinguish
ed throughout the world. A great ora
tor and writer, his sermons have the
widest dissemination, until there is
scarcely a family where his name and
works are not known.
When such a man, recognized lead
er and teacher of the people, testifies
by his written testimonial that DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem
edy has helped him and that he recon-
mends it's use for invigoration after
overwork, to restore the strength, en-
ergy, nerve force and vitality of the
system, when for any reason they are
lost, weakened or impaired, those who
are sick and suffering, who are weak
nervous, without strength, en-
ergy and ambition, who are discourag-
ed and disheartened by repeated fail
ures to be cured, in fact all who have
need of strengthening and health
restoring medicine can take renewed
hope from the words of this great
preacher, that DR.. Greene's Nervura is
the one remedy among all others to
give them back the health and strength
they have lost.
Rev. DR.. Talmadge says:
14O0 Mass. Ave, washington, d. G.
7 commend DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy for invigora-
ton after overwork. I have used the
Nervura for that purpose.

DIR. Greene's Nervura remains untried
no one should be discouraged or de-

in this wonderful remedy relief from

restoration from nerve weakness and
nervous prostration; renewed strength
from the weak, tired feelings, run down

County Commissioners Disprove the

The county commissioners have is
sued a statement, which disposes Of
the charge made by the Voice" to
the effect that there were sixty-six sa-
looms and places where liquor was sold
within radius of two blocks from the
Yale campus.
BY actual count there are exactly
twenty-eight places where liquor is
sold within the radius claimed by the
"Voice." The commissioners have
counted the places on the opposite side
of the streets bounding the radius, so
that some of the places are in radius
of three blocks. There are eleven drug
stores, but the commissioners claim
that no person can obtain liquor in
these without prescription.

the best of the modern hymns and also
excellent likenesses of the authors. An

THE CARE OF CATS.
Kinds of Food That should BE Given
20 Them-Tow to Treat Them
When Sick.

"Cats arc Sy no means as hardy as is
suggested by the old adage that each
cat has nine lives" remarked a vet
erinarian who makes a specially of
treating sick cats. but there is no rea-
son why, with proper care, pet cat
should not live TO a very green old age.
Cats Should be fed regularly and at
least twice a day. Bread and milk or
oatmeal porridge and milk, the milk
having q little hot water and a trifle
Of sugar added to It in chilly weather,
should constitute their breakfast.
Bread and broth with little cooked
meat is quite sufficient for their din
ner. A little fresh fish may be given
occasionally, and now and then a NOR
sci Of uncoolSed liver and meat. care
being taken to remove all fat. Any veg
etable for which the cat shows a fond
less may be given with discretion.
Remember to see that cat always
has access to plenty Of fresh water
and fresh grass, grass being a genuine
panacea for all its minor troubles. The
diseases Of cats include sore throat,
bronchitis, pneumonia and consump-
tion which are especially prevalent
among them, rs they are very suscep-
tible to dampncss. One of the first
symptoms Of illness is q rough and un-
tidy coat. If this be accompanied by
restlessness and languor it is safe TO
administer n dose Of castor oil and pro-
vide the cat with a sheltered place un-
I'll the effect has worn off.
'Where the presence of any kind Of
poison is suspected prompt and ener-
getic action is necessary. A liberal
dose of lulSewarm water slightly salt
ed generally has a good effect, but it is
safest to give at once sweet oil or melt
ed lard. After such an experience n
course of cod liver oil Is advised, with
a generous diet. A little powdered sui
phur made into paste with lard OF
unsalted butter, and smeared upon the
front paws, is an excellent thing tC
keep a cat in good condition, but care
should be taken to keep 1t from all eX
posure 10 dampness until the effects o
the dose disappear.
"Never scold, frighten or shake q sicl
