1.-THE duties of professional nurses
call them among great many different
people, and 1t Is surprising to know how
many are suffering from the use Of cof-
fee. which Is the primary cause Of the
majority Of many nervous disorders.
My own experience has been such that
feel that l can speak with some
knowledge Of the subject.
For about ten years was afflicted
with a severe nervous disorder, which
was so great that sleep became an I'M
known thing to me without the use OF
err at this time, but had never thought
that had anything to do with the diff
Guilty.
AFTER coming to Chicago 20 live
was told by an acquaintance, who had
been a similar sufferer from nervous
ness, that he discovered 1t was caused
by the use of coffee, and when he made
that discovery. gave up the coffee and
took up the use Of Postum Food Coffee
and was completely restored. His ar
gument sounded so logical l was de-
termined to make the experiment, and
TO my surprise, upon leaving on the cof-
fee habit commenced to improve. This
Improvement has continued until now
l am in complete health and sleep well
and naturally. always advise patients
suffering from nervous trouble to aban-
don the use of coffee and use Postum,
for know what am talking about on
that subject.
Occasionally private families do
not prepare Postu well, that is, they
fail to allow n sufficient amount OF
time for boiling. 1t requires more boil
ing than coffee, but the care well ne
pays, for the beverage Is delightful to
the taste and wonderfully nourishing."

Short and sweet was the caucus Of
the Republican members of the city
legislature held last night at the city

party's selection for board Of gas tEas-
tees.
The caucus was attended by all but
three of the Republicans of council.

Maurer and Mccormick, being out Of
the city. president James P. Maxwell,
Of the second branch of council, was
made chairman OF the caucus. and City
Clerk o'Brien acted as secretary.
Three names were proposed, Messrs.

cans, and julius Pollock. Democrat tthe
present board). and these were made
the party's choice by reclamation, there
being none of the opposition to Mr..
Bucktilan which the easily imposed up-
on evening sheet was so loud in pro-
claiming a few evenings since. There
was a general sentiment in favor OF
endorsing the excellent administration
Of the gas office by the present board BY
giving the trustees another term, and
this sentiment found expression in the
unanlmity with which Messrs. Buck
man. Ford and Pollock were put
through the caucus mill.
After the caucus proper, many of the
councllmen and several of the party
leaders gathered and held an enthusiast
tic ratification meeting, at which Mr..
Buchanan, of the gas board, and others
made speeches that breathed harmony
in the Republican organization. -

Again Gen. Whittier said, IN answer
to a ques ton from Senator Frye whether
the insurgents had been of material as
sistance to the Americans:
Very great. If the protocol had5 not been
signed | think the Spanish at home would
have insisted upon their army doing some
thing. They dismissed Augustin because
he was not disposed to fight, and l think IL
they had not had this experience of having
been driven back into the city and the water
cut off. so even that Jaudenes said he could
not remove his non combata nts, the govern
ment would have insisted on his making q
fight, and he could have made very good
one, for his position was strong. If they had
any fight in them ut all. But every place had
been taken from them by the Filipinos, who
managed their advances and occupation of
the country in an able manner.
Is not the proof overwhelming that
the United States would not have taken
Manila when it did had it not been for
the Filipinos' Instruction, which was
sustained largely by that Spanish money
our imperialist press charges Aguinaldo
with having taken as personal bribe
All these facts will have to be considered
by the American people. In the face of
them how can any one regard other THAI
as an infamy a war of subjugation
against our late allies?

Lord FArrer Herschell, president of
the settlement of disputed questions
with the United States, died suddenly in
Washington on Wednesday evening of
heart failure. He had been lord high
chancellor of England and was one of
that country's greatest statesmen. 1t is
singular coincidence that the United
States also should lose by death one of
its most famous statesmen while acting
on this commission. Nelson Dingley
passed away only few short weeks ago.

PUBLIC DOCUMENT NO. 60, AND lTS
VITAL REVELATIONS,

Under above head the Springfield
(Mass.) Republican says; Public docu-
ment No. G2, embracing the official text
of the Spanish treaty and accompany
ing papers, secret correspondence, etc,
contains very many important facts re-
lating to the Philippine question. We
wish to call special attention to several
of them.
The dispatch of Admiral Dewey to the
government at Washington concerning
the capacity of the Filipinos for self
government is already familiar. 1t now
appears that on August %, 1898, several
weeks after the signing of the protocol,
and when the presidents future policy
was already under consideration, the adj
miral took special pains to again remind
the administration of his views. He
telegraphed on that date:
The population of Luzon is reported to be
something over 100000, mostly natives
These are gentle, docile and, under just laws
ana with the benefits of popular education
would soon make good citizens. In a tele
gram sent to the department on June %
expressed the opinion that "these people are
far superior in their Intelligence and more
cap able If self government than the native:
of Cuba, and am familiar with both races

me In tn opinion

Dew ey, ii grew the stronger in the

New style Of wheat hug.

Aberdeen. S. D., Dec. 16.--Grain buy
ers at Columbia and Ordway have
found that what appeared at first to be
dirt or small weed seeds mixed with
wheat in some of their bins Is really a
mass Of very small bugs. They are
found principally in bins in which
damp wheat was placed, which has
heated more or less. So far as they
have been able to make an examina-
tion the wheat men declare the bugs
have done no damage TO the kernels of
wheat. The bugs are something en-.
tirely new and unheard of here.

III the American Journal of Science
Mr.. Nudge says that while the present
mouth OF the Grand river is at Grand
Haven, on Lake Michigan, there is an
other point seventy miles inland from
the shores of Lake Michigan which
was the termination Of the old river
valley and is therefore its mouth in
an interesting sense. He declares
that at one time great glacial river.
three-fourths of a mile in width,
flowed across the peninsula from Lake
Saginaw to Lake Chicago. Long ago
the sources Of this glacial river
(which has been called the Pewamo
outlet) failed. and the wide valley,
with its record-bearing deposits. was
laid bare to give up its secrets to the
inquisitive Biologist. Mr.. Nudge de-
scribes its course and the river de-
posits about it's old mouth.
