day is to give useful, sensible gifts instead
of the little fancy nothings which are soon
laid aside and forgotten. One entire de-
partment of the store is devoted to the dis
play of fine carving sets and table cutlery
Hundreds of carvers of every conceivab BILE
size are included in the collection In an
ether case are shown over 400 different pat
terms OF pocket knives and a complete line
of Rogers. Wade & Butchers and Wosten-
holm razors. Some of the latter are quite
unique, being finished with fancy handles

particularly interested in the department
devoted to tool chests, which are exhibited
also in the great front show windows
These chests are filled with genuine car
penters' tools, selected from stock and are
fully guaranteed. They make very &C.
ceptable gifts to boys or men with a me-
chanical turn of mind. The craze for roller
skates seems to be reviving, as is indicated
by the number of Columbia and RAYMOND
extension roller skates which are being
selected for Christmas offerings Ice skates
are another favorite gift, and they NAV he

Coffee the Cause
OF HEART TROUBLE.

Three cases Of heart trouble that have been re.
Heved by stopping coffee and taking Postum Food
Coffee have come under my notice. First, nv own
case suffered greatly from palpitation and irreg-
uiarity OF the heart. My physician ordered me to
leave of coffee, and when took up Postum Food
Coffee in its place the heart trouble was soon
entirely cured, and find the Postum to be just
as the doctor said, not only harmless, but very
beneficial
"A gentleman friend had much the same trouble
with his heart. 1 suggested that he try Postum.
After the first cup at breakfast he said 4 don't
want any more Of IT. Inquiry proved that 1t had
not been properly boiled. so l prepared cup for
him, strictly according to directions and he pro-
nounced 1t delicious and better than coffee
Mrs. -- Of Paducah suffered much the same
way, and has had the same experience In recey-
ering from heart trouble by the discontlnuance of
coffee and taking up the use of Postum. For pri-
vate reasons request that you withhold my name
from publication. -, Princeton, Ky

Wave after wave crashed over the
decks oSthe steamer. throwing the
animals about. breaking their legs

The vessel was uncontrollable, and
1t was next to impossible for any

Three hundred and fifty horses were
