COFFEE DISEASES.
Minister aud Young Lady Afflicted.


Ministers sometimes find they suffer
from the effects of bad habits as well
as ordinary people. Rev. Mr.. - of
Athens, N. Y, had become greatly
emaeiated from coffee drinking, which
the effects of overwork or poor nour-
ishmeut.
He quit the coffee and began drink
ing Postum Cereal Food Coffee.
His health began to improve and he
now weighs Isl pounds an increase of
Is pounds over his former weight.
This improvement in health and
strength is shown to be due to the use
of Postum Food Coffee, by the fact
that when he stops drinking Postum
as he has done for an experiment-he
begins to lose flesh and get back into
his old condition.
A young lady who writes about the
case says that she was formerly suf-
fering greatly from those twin dis
cases." dyspepsia and nervousness. II
knew that both of the diseases had
their origin in the use of coffee, and
while l was fully aware of it's injurious
effects upon my system, was not
willing to give il up, for I did not know
of anything to take its place.
Tea, knew, was also injurious, and
as for cocoa, it lacked the snap and
GO which can alone satisfy a coffee
drinkers taste. About two years ago
/ purchased my first box of Postum
Food Coffee and quit the use of cof-
fee. / made Postum according to di-
rections and found / had a drink not
only equal to coffee, but far superior
to IL in many ways. Since that time I
have used II constantly and find my
general health very much improved,
and the twin diseases gone. also

of Athens. n. Y, who have been
greatly helped by the use of Postum
Food Coffee IN the place OF ordinary

Pittsburg, Sept 1O.-President 2. ].
Shaffer and his advisers in the general
Office of the Amalgamated Association

directed President Shaffer, together
with Secretary and Treasurer John

Tighe and Ben l. Davis, of the ad-
visory board, to settle without delay
on the best terms obtainable.
Since then there has been no action
developing anything to further set

Shaffer is seeking to reopen negotia-
tions with the United States Steel Cor
poration in the hope of getting better
terms.
The terms secured by the National

board. Instead, a resolution was passed
directing President Shaffer, with the
aid of his immediate advisors, to Sc
cure the best possible settlement in the
least possible time. The terms sub
mitted provided simply for a signing of
scales for all union plants of the Tin
Plate, Sheet Steel and Steel Hoop COM

One member of the board put 1t this
way:
president Shaffer has the means to
end the strike How he is going to do
it l can't say, but that is what he has
to do"
