Tea drinking frequently effects people
as badly as coffee. A lady in Salisbury,

was compelled to abandon the use Of
coffee a good many years ago, because
il threatened to ruin her health and that
she went over to tea drinking, but that
finally, about three years ago. she had
dyspepsia so badly that she had lost
twenty five pounds and no food seemed
to agree with her.
She further says: AT this time I was
induced to take up the famous food
drink, Postum Food Coffee, and was so
much pleased with the results that I
have never been without it since.

Il know Postum to be good, pure, and

is that it is satisfying and wonderfully
nourishing- I feel as if I could not sing
its praises too loud.''

A TRAGEDY ON STAGE.
Supposed Unloaded Pistol Explodea
and Painfully Injuries an Actor.

Pittsburg, Oct. 5.-Thomas w. Ross
made pretense of committing suicide
upon the stage of the Grand opera house,
which was according to his lines in the
play, Thursday. The revolver he used
exploded, which was not according to
the lines with the result that he spent
most Of the afternoon and evening at the
Homeopathic hospital
In the first act of the play the char
acter which Mr.. Ross assumes in a
mood of dependency, places a revolver
against his breast, but Miss Ida Nc
Millin, one of the cast, is supposed to
prevent the explosion. Ordinarily the
revolver is not loaded, but as it was to
be used afterward in a shooting scene,
it contained blank cartridges today.
AS Miss McMillin reached for the
weapon an unexpected jerk caused Mr..
Ross to press the trigger and the ex-
plosion followed. 1t resulted in burning
the actors shirt and peppering his flesh
with black powder. The audience
thought it all a part of the drama and
applauded vigorously.
After the physicians had picked all the
black powder they could from Mr.. Ross
side they cauterized the wound to pre-
vent blood poisoning from the paper
wad which pierced his flesh an inch. 1Ir.
Ross is a brother of Hope Ross.
