DR.. HOWARD.
Tells His Experience With Coffee.

I am pleased to add my help TO your
| campaign of instruction on the subject
! of coffee drinking. For ten or twelve
years have been a severe sufferer from
that cause.
I gradually abandoned everything from
time to time that thought produced the
extreme nervousness from which l suf-
fered, and all Of my very frequent calls
on my fellow physicians resulted in no
benefit until 1 was advised 10 do without
coffee.
My condition at that time was such
that I was certain that I had heart dis
ease in one of it's worst forms. Many a
night I have retired not expecting to
live to see morning. ne action was so
feeble and slow that It would run a. low
as IS to 40, and never 80, unless was
taking severe exercise or using some
stimulant
My experience in examining patients
who presented themselves for operations
under an anestheric, led me to continually
compare my condition with theirs, and
life was made very miserable for me by
such comparisons.
I also suffered from a constant muscular
contraction of the fieshy portion of the
left hand, a technical description Of which
Will not undertake in this letter. but l
could not get ridSof the trouble
These conditions, with a constantly sour
stomach, q feeling of extreme faintness
about an hour before regular meal time,
and sanow complexion gives you a gen
eraI idea Of the shape I was in Just before
discontinued the use q coffee. It was
very hard to give up coffee, but I was
compelled 20 do 50, and for & time used
water and milk. Then 1 tried a so-called
cereal coffee. which nave since learned
is made partly of coffee and partly Of
Drowned grains, and Is sold as an inita-
ton OF your Postum. This did not work.
so I went back 10 the water and milk
until about a year ago I got hold Of Pos
tum-the genuine. Since then have had
one cup and sometimes two every morn
ing, and frequently for dinner at night
Ny health was never better thans = IS
now. no nervousness nor muscular con
traction. no heart trouble or sour Stom-
ach and the pulse running from % 10 IS.
At the time I was suffering from the
effects Of coffee made application fo-
some life insurance, ard was rejected on
account Of the action Of my heart. To
show what the abstinence Of coffee and
the drinking Of Postum VIII DO. and has
done tor me, I viii say that in March
last I was examined for lie insurance
and passed 8 most excellent examination.
Having gone through the very diss gree
able experience and been relieved from
the trouble, il is bur natural that I
should feel willingness 70 assist You all
can in your work, for I 60 not believe
one person in ten has a realizing sense o:
the damage 70 the nervous system caused
by the consumption OF coffee.

The Doctors Wonderful Baby.

There is a physician in West Phil
adelphia who has son year old and
this baby is probably the strongest
human being for its age and weight
in the world. It's father will hold
cane in two hands and the baby grasp
ing it, will draw itself up to its chin
three times. This is but one fits nu-
merous feats Of strength. The physi-
clan says that his boys unusual mus
cular development Is due to daily
massage treatment. Every morning
he lays the little fellow, naked, on a
blanket and kneads his muscles for
thirty minutes. Once month he
weighs the baby and measures its
calves, chest, arms, &c. The monthly
increase Of weight and girth is re-
markable. The baby has never had
shoes or stockings on its feet or hat
on its head, and in the summer it
wears only a little sleeveless dress that
comes to its knees. 1t gets cold
bath every morning.
IF nothing goes wrong" the ply
sician often declares, this child will
be one of the strongest men the world
has ever seen. He Will never get
bald, and be will never loose a tooth.
As for his mucles, with massage and
a course of exercise that I have laid
out, they will be big and supple all
over his body. All his flesh will be,
when tense, as hard as steel, and when
relaxed as soft as the flesh Of young
girl. philadelphia Record.

Raced in a Tub for Life.

Abram Sapiro, an employee at the
brewery Of Katz Brothers, at Paterson
n. j., has charge Of the MASKING tubs
in which the malt is boiled. In the
centre of each of these tubs there Is a
shaft to which are attached two sets of
steel knives. When the upright shaft
revolves the knives are driven about
and the malt is mixed. One of the
mash tubs was empty on Tuesday and
Sapiro was at work cleaning the ma
chinery. He was in the great vat and
had practically completed his task
when he asked Thomas Mckay, who
was assisting him, to go and turn a
lever in the next room, which is used
to start the feeding Of the malt into the
mixer. Mckay raised the lever which
starts the central shaft in the tub.
Sapiro was still in the tub and as he
saw the knives begin to move walked
along the copper bottom rapidly to
keep out of the way. The knives moved
faster and soon Sapiro was running at
top speed with one knife before him as
PAGER and the others behind him as
chasers. Mckay heard his cries and
came running into the room. He was
so Mortified at what he saw that in
stead Of remedying the trouble he was
rooted to the ground, and in a daze
watched the chase. Sapiro cried des-
perately for help. The shaft had
reached its maximum speed and the
man between the knives could not last
long. In the meantime a slip on the
copper bottom meant horrible death.
Sapiro was on his last legs when work
men from other parts Of the building,
having heard his agonized cries, reach
ed him. One of these had the pres
ence of mind to signal the engine room
and in moment the machinery began
to slacken speed. When it finally
stopped, and Sapiro had to be very
careful to GLOW up at the same rate as
the knives, the runner fell TO the bot
tom Of the vat exhausted. He had
been at the top speed for nearly FIVE
minutes, racing with death. He was
unhurt.

NEW VOL. 34.--NO. 45.
War on Texas Wolves.

The wolves were not as plentiful as
we had expected to find them. The
reason for their scarcity is that the
ranchmsn have adopted successful
method of disposing of them. Some
FIVE or six of the big ranches have
raised salary which they pay a man
whose business is no other than to kill
wolves and panthers. That man is
Mr.. Martin, whose address is Guthrie.
He is better known as wolf Martin.
Mr.. Martin is trapper in the true
sense Of the word. He has two head
quarter camps, eight fine saddle horses
which he keeps well ridden. large
pack of wolf hounds and 200 large
wolf traps. The traps he puts out at
certain points along the road and
trails and each morning he makes the
circuit with his dogs. The traps are
left loose, and when he find. one gone
the dogs are placed on the trail and
usually in short distance come upon
the trapped wolf, which they dispose
of in short order. The dogs live on
the wolves killed, eating the meat raw.
During his long experience as a
trapper Mr.. Martin has learned many
curious things about the habits of the
animals in his section. The wolves,
he says, are always to be found along
the roads at night, rather than off in
the brakes, so he always places his
traps along the roadside. He uses no
bait on his traps, but has e substitute
for bait in kind of fluid of his own
discovery and manufacture. With
the fluid he .aturates paper or cloth
and buries it IN the ground near his
trap. He always carries a bottle Of
this fluid with him and claims it to be
superior to any bait.
Last year he killed something over
l,lOO wolves, a few panthers and SO
deer. His salary was at first $50, but
has been raised to $40. This amount,
with the bounties on the scalp' and
the price of skins, makes him a salary
of $4,000 or $4,000 a year. This Is
small in comparison with the amount
saved yearly by the cattlemen of the
section.

Mr.. Bonner grinned with delight.
He took the colt to Tarrytown and
pared down its toes. In few days it
was as sound as a dollar, moving
squarely and fast, and at the age of
four went the mile in 2.l5!.
"You see, explained Mr.. Bonner,
"the toe of its hoof was so long that
it stretched the suspenIory ligament.
Just had it pared down and relieved
the strain. 1t cost about two cents
labor and saved me a thousand dol
lars.
One rule that was always inviOlate
in the Ledger Office was that nothing
even remotely suggestive should ap-
pear.
"You shall not print in thispaper, -
said Mr.. Bonner, "even a single word
that my mother could not read aloud
without shame to her infants.
There is nothing on earth, said
Mr.. Bonner again and still once more
like advertising. If you have any
thing to sell advertise it. "
One of Mr.. Bonner's early ideas
was to buy up the entire adyertis-
ing space in New York newspaper.
His display consisted in repeating
over and over with bewildering itera-
ton the fact that the Ledger was
about to publish story by So-and-
So. On the morning the advertise
ment appeared-eight pages in all

answering in person.
"Then tell me-" demanded the ply
sician, "what in the face of nature all
this means? Have you gone out of
your mind over night ?"
Mr.. Bonner laughed delightedly.
There" he exclaimed, 81 knew
that advertisement would hit wen
ture to say that every person that has
read that paper this morning is max
ing the same query. It's grand r
The advertisement cost thousands
Of dollars, but it paid.
"It's too bad, said friend to him
one morning, that Charles Dickens
wont write for American publica-
tions.
"He won't, eh ?" cried Mr.. Bonner.
"Just wait till l try"
He rushed down to his Office, wrote
to Dickens asking for a story and with
the letter sent a draft for $4,000.
Dickens was carried off his feet. He
accepted and at the same time asked
whether this was the way American
publishers did business.
Its the way this one does, an
swered Mr.. Bonner A while after
ward Mr.. Bonner captured Tennyson
by the same plan.
Mr.. Bonner, with all the tens Of
thousands of stories he published

he ever finished were Dickens Hunt

his custom to read merely the opening
