POSTUM CEREAL.
FIRST SIXTEEN YEARS
Determine Structure and Physical
Health.

Il parents could realize what a crime
they commit in permitting children to
have heavy drugs during their early life,
such drugs, for instance, as coffee, which
stunts their growth, prepares them for
dyspepsia and nervous wrecks, they
would DO anything, go TO any amount of
trouble and care, TO change the methods
and give their children the advantages
that nature demands to produce perfect
specimens
A sizty-year-old woman writes: my
overindulgent papa used to say at the
table, Why not let the child have what
she likes? It won't hurt her any He
referred particularly to my drinking cof-
fee, which was very fond of as a child.
He honestly thought it didn't hurt me,
for with his strong body, apparently
without nerves, he was not consciously
effected by coffee, but the effect on me
: bundle Of nerves-was to develop rest
lessness and stunt my growth.
The first effect after drinking coffee
was that OF delightful exhilaration and
felt courage and strength to attack al
most any amount OF active work. but in
q few hours the reaction came, with mis-
cry in my chest, paIpitation OF the heart,
and most unbearalble pains in my stom-
ach.
Finally my attention was called to
Postum Cereal Food Coffee and we Sc
cured some Of It. It was prepared accord
ing to directions, but breakfast being de-
layed, the Postum got an extra boiling,
which developed all its virtues, and we
all fell in love with it from the first mo-
ment. The change in our physical health
after drinking Postum was something re
markable. We have as delicious coffee
as any one could ask, but IT Is a perfect
" healthy coffee, and the more we drink
Of II, in reason, the better we are. 1 am
satisfied that the increasing amount OF
heart difficulty OF late years among young
people IS directly attributable to the use
OF coffee, and it Is a great blessing to
have 50 safe and delicious food coffee
as Postum. Please omit my name from
Au5lication. "--East Brookheld. Mass.

as the result Of a conference with Capt.
Reed he went to see Castle Bros. con-
tractors. who supply the commissary de-
partment with vegetables, ETC.. and
wanted them to give Capt Reed $4,000
and 10 per cent commission on all sales
castle Bros, demurred to this PROPOSE
ton. Lieut.. Townley again went to
Castle Bros, and this time only asked
them for $1,000. Castle Bros were re.
Iuctant to hand over this sum and Lieut.,
ToWnley explained that Capt Reed was
In a position to advance the interests of
the firm and that it would be ad.
vantageous to Castle Bros. to oplige him.
Lieut.. Townley testified that he further
explained to Castle Bros that Capt. Reed
might allow them the use Of government
lighters and possibly he less rigid in the
inspection of goods purchased. Lieut..
Townley said that he thought Can't.
Reed was doing a noble thing In at
tempting to protect the character of q
brother officer. He also said that such
transactions were not customary in tho
navy. When cross-questioned Lieut..
Townley said, rather sheepishly, that ne
was not so sure he was doing right in
taking the witness chair
Col. Charles A. Woodruff chief of the
subsistence department in Manila, ex-
planned the circumstances Of Capt. Reeds
appointment and described the duties OF
the depot commissary, not knowing
whether the accounts of Maj. Davis were
correct or not. Col Woodruff explained
that on Dec. 80 Castle Bros. aroused his
suspicion by intimating that money was
being collected by an officer of the COM
missary department. Later Col. Wood
ruff sent for Capt Reed, who admitted
receiving rebates for the purpose of COW
ering the del.nquencies of Mai. Davis.
The testimony of Col Woodruff is un-
finished and other witnesses are awaiting
examination.

out that the purchase by. ]. P. Morgan
and the men associated with him would
enable the United States Steel corpora
tion to land its manufactured products
in any of the countries where the Ley

event of a decision on the part of any
Of the companies to charge higher rates
than the steel corporation desired to pay,

transfer ships to any Of these lines and
