 Man. AND A SURE LOSER,

It's no use, old man, you can keep on trying them, one after the other, but the same old haunted look in your eyes, the same lantern jaw, and clothes that need a bicycle pump, will continue until you quit coffee.
 There are hundreds of thousands of your type, sick and miserable half their lives. taking cathartic pills, stomach remedies blood purifiers, tonics, and an endless string of remedies, some of which might be beneficial if you were not constantly pouring in poison that keeps up your trouble, and that poison is coffee
 You say, q ought to be able to drink coffee because I see others that use it and thrive'' but, my dear man, your makeup may be so highly organized, or of such a character, that coffee, even one small cup a day, is an absolute poison to you.
 You can prove whether or not it is by leaving off coffee totally for period of, say ten days or a month. During this time eat plain food and drink Pos tun Food Coffee.
 If your stomach gradually begins to recover, pulse beats right, and you lose the uneasy feeling of ill-health, you can safely conclude that coffee has been poison to you, and if you want to do things in this world,-make money, be success. round out your body, and win friends by your good nature and health fulness,-you want to throw over your coffee and take in return all these good things It's just sense plain, good, common sense.
 Underneath all this are reasons of the most scientific character known to the physicians and chemists. In nut shell, coffee is poison to many people.

Take it away and introduce Postum Food Coffee, which is a liquid food of high character that at once begins re- building the destroyed nerve centers.
 These are facts, facts, facts, anu they mean health conferred and continued, If one will only wake up and take ad- vantage of them Remember Postun is a delicious beverage if made strictly according to directions, and that is easily done Don't take any cooks eX- cuse or statement that she followed directions If your Postum comes to the table weak and unpalatable, you can depend upon 1t, the cook has slight ed the job. It is the easiest sort of a proposition to make good Postum. It only needs attention Put piece of butter twice the size of pea in the pot to prevent boiling over. All first class grocers sell Postum

Elizabeth CITY, N. c., March IL
After being closeted with witnesses some
thing over three hours a grand jury to-
day, at E:15, brought a true bill against
James Wilcox, accused of numbering his
crc-time sweetheart, Ella Maude Crop
sey. The finding was not announced pub.
5licly by the court.
The Indictment read, in part:
s'The jurors for. the State, upon their
caths, present that James Wilcox. on the
zeth of November, 1901, with force Of
arms, at and in the county and State
aforesaid, feloniously, wilfully, and OF his
malice aforethought, did kill and mur-
der Ella NJ. Cropsey.
The Indictment was signed by IL.
Ward, foreman.
Among witnesses called by the grand
jury were Miss Carrie L. Cropsey, OF
New York, sNe1rs cousin; Miss Ollie Crop

trousers, freshly laundered linen, turn
down collar, black bow tie and newly
polished shoes He showed no token of
merry BUSINESS save by his eyes. 1t was
decided to call the Wilcox case at
o'clock Thursday. Counsel agreed that
!ol yenremen would be needed.
Ten-year-old Frank Young was brought
and drew names of prospective talesmen.
There were drawn the names of twenty
two persons who are dead or gone. and
that led to a discussion. which caused
Geiense's counsel to note exceptions be-
cause the jury box had not been recently
revised. Among veniremen drawn are III.
Greenleaf fchairman) and L L. Win
del, late of the citizens committee of
five.
The prisoners lawyers made no move
for change of venue, that having been
decided at last nights conference. Former
Sheriff Wilcox said tonight only two wit
resses had been summoned by the de-
fenSe.
The feeling against Wilcox seems less
bitter.
