l had quite n time following DR..
Steinmann's directions when he told me
that he could not cure me of my ner-
VouS trouble until quiz drinking cof-
Zee. and upon my statement that |
could not give up the habit, he told me
to get the genuine Postum Food Coffee,
He said: BE sure and get the pack
age with the red seals. for there have
been Il good many limitations put on
the market"
WE'LL got 4 package, and had 1t
made like l always make coffee; that
Is to take it off from the stove as soon
as 1t begins to boil.
When drank mouthful of Postum
made this way, thought would never
drink any more. for 1t was horrld fiat
and insipid. Il was living in Denver,
Colo, at that time.)
I spoke to Mrs. Gilcrist, n friend
living on Emerson Ave-, about what
the doctor had given me that horrd
stuff called Postum" and She laughed
out loud. and said, II know just what's
the matter with you. have been u.s.
ing Postum for months, and 1t is deli
cious. but you have to boil it or 1t Will
not taste good"
told her she was welcome to the
rest of my package. as was through
with 1t, but She insisted on my trying
1t once more, and when we reached
home. we were so much interested in
it, that she went to the kitchen and
made some for our lunch.
l took only n little sip at first, for
was afraid OF 1t. but when tasted It
as she had made 1t, what difference
there was! 1t was q beautiful deep
brown color, had lovely strong COT
fee taste. and that cup completely cap
tured me.
Mrs. Clark and Mrs. McGaffey, both
living on Stout street. friends, have
been induced to leave off coffee and ust.
Postum, as they have been very great

In It's praise.
While visiting Prof. W. II. Clancy,

everything done to subdue the insur-
gent rebellion.
1t was stated in these dispatches Of
Friday that the Filipino representa-
tiVes here had filed at the State De-
partment a final message, saucy in it's
tone, and that they had engaged trans
portation to Canada. Their tickets are
via the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
Felipe Agoncillo has already fed from
Washington. He left Washington last
evening, but whether he had some adj
vance information about the hostile at
titude of his countrymen in the Philip
pines is not known. His associates say
he is in Baltimore, but it is known that
he is now en- route to Canada.
Early in the day it was impossible
to see any Of the Filipinos. Their status
since the attack upon the American
lines is by no means an insignificant
feature Of the situation from local
standpoint. 1t is quite probable they
might be viewed in the light Of public
enemies, or spies at the national CAPT.
toll, and, therefore, be subject to arrest
by Government authorities.
The Filipinos have, as yet, made no
arrangements with the hotel for vacat-
ing their rooms, and have given no di-
rect information that they contem-
plated leaving Washington at present,
but secret service detectives of the
treasury department WHO nave Ue6n
persistently shadowing them for the
past two weeks knew several days ago
that they were preparing to leave for
Canada. A secret service man fol-
lowed every movement of Agoncillo
and it is a fair presumption that he is
now on Agoncillo's trail
Just what the effect of the Manila
battle will be on the peace treaty pros
poets is uncertain. Opinions vary.
Some Senators say that it ought to in
sure its ratification, while others hold
that it will have just the opposite eff
feet, inasmuch as the Filipinos threat
en- to give us serious and everlasting
trouble if we acquire the islands.
1t is the general opinion tonight
that the administration will now be
compelled to AXE a definite statement
of this Governments intentions with
respect to the islands.
President Mckinley said to an init
mate friend tonight that the Manila
engagement would, in his opinion, in
sure a ratification of the treaty to-mor-
row. Senators Lodge and Spooner, be-
ing interviewed by The Call represen-
tative tonight, expressed the same
opinion.

GERMANY MAY
SEEK TO CAUSE
US TROUBLE

! NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-A Washington
special to the Herald says: Appreciat-
ing that new aspect has been placed
upon the international situation with
respect to the Philippines by the insur-
gents attack upon the American troops,
the authorities are confident that no
European power will aid Aguinaldo by
recognizing the independence of his re-
public.
No danger of an outbreak in the city
of Manila is anticipated, but should it
! occur, then, under international law,
| foreign warships in the harbor would
have the right to land marines for the
protection of the subjects and interests
of the powers which they represent.
Though treasured by representations
made by the Berlin Government that it
| completely recognizes American SOW
ereignty over the archipelago, the au-
thoritieS have not forgotten the attitude
| of Germany during the war, and there
is reason to believe the movements of
warships of that power will be watched
with more anxiety than those of any
other nation. So far as the authorities
now know, the German Government
! has only two warships in the Philip
| pines-one at Manila and the other (the
| Irene) az Iloilo. The remainder of the
| German Asiatic squadron is in Chinese
waters and the authorities are curious
| to learn if the German Government will
order them to Manila.
The United States is assured in adj
vance of the friendliness of Great Brit
| ain and Russia, and there is no danger
of interference by France and Span
without identical action of all the other
powers, While talking with the Rus
sian Ambassador yesterday, he declared
to me that Russia had only the warm
est feelings of friendship for the United
! States; that her interests and those of
! this country do not conflict in the Phil
| ipT lines, as Russia's interests lie in the
/ north; but the Russian Ambassador
! predicted that the Philippines viii be
/ to this country what Formosa now is
! to Japan. what Egypt has been to Eng
| land, and Madagascar to France
