trouble. After hearing of Postum Food
Coffee he induced me to try 1t. That was
six months ago when / made the change,
and the result has been something won
derful.

II better than Java or any other coffee.
We shall never use any other coffee as
long as we can get Postum.
/ know how to make good Postum. but
that is easy If one will just boil 1t long

A short time ago an old lady. who is a

CHARGE is COUNTERFEITING
Fred BOgley of Hitenian Arrested ON
Charge of Flooding Towns
with bogus Money.

GRINNELL, Ia, Feb. 19.-(Special Tele
gram.)- THE police of Abba have sprung a
sensation by the arrest of Fred Bogley of
Hiteman, charged with wholesale counter
feiting For some time Abba and neighbor-
ing towns have been flooded with spurious
dollars, but the ingenuity of the counter
feiters enabled them to battle the officers.
United States Marshal Richards has been
investigating the case and Bogley's arrest
is the result. The dollars are excellent
limitations and defy ordinary examination.
The plant is still undiscovered, but the
officers believe that 1t is in one of the dives
between Hiteman and Abba.

Murder Accusation in Suit.

Suit was filed in district court here today
by Bernicc Barber. minor son Of the late
George Barber of Webster City, Ia, against
the Annuity Life association for the $1,000
life insurance policy on Barber's life, and in
the pleadings direct accusation is made
against Myrtle A. Wright. who was named
as beneficiary in the policies. She is ac-
cused OF feloniously taking the life of the
deceased or causing his death or procuring
another to take his life. This is another
chapter in the sensational poisoning case at
Pagosa Springs. Colo Barber. who form
erly lived in Iowa and was n practicing at
torney, died from poisoning in Colorado
three weeks after having taken out the
policies. The beneficiary, Myrtle A. Wright,
was with him during his later days and she
was held with a man on a charge of having
caused the death of Barber, but finally re-
leased. The insurance companies claim to
have procured evidence that Barber was
killed by poison and this was to be used to
fight the expected suit OF Myrtle Wright
Now the minor son of Barber brings suit
on the policies and claims a right to the
money because OF the completely of the
Wright woman in his taking off.
