ARE YOU AMBITIOUS

We inherit our temperaments. Some children are happy and bright, while others are nervous and cross Care should be taken that the child is given proper food and drink so as not to in- crease natural nervousness or to bring it on; but this is often overlooked by moth CTS who permit their children to drink coffee without check.
 The wife of a groceryman living in Siloam, Mo, says, "I was born with a nervous temperament and this was in- creased by my parents giving me coffee when a child, unconscious of it's bad ef- feet on my nervous system. In time, a cup of coffee in the morning invariably soured on my stomach and a single cup at night would make me nervous and wakeful and often cause a distressing heartburn. Last year I laid in bed all Summer with nervous prostration, a com plete wreck from coffee drinking. I craved a good nourishing, hot drink and commenced to use Postum Food Coffee.
 There was a gradual improvement in my health almost from the commence ment of using Postum. I could sleep well, the heartburn and nervousness disappeared. my stomach trouble stopped and now Ca year later) I have gone from the sick-bed into the store behind the counter day after day; from a helpless to stirring business woman, with new life and strength, new hopes and am- bition; from the pale. weak 102-pound woman to my present weight of 120 pounds Thanks to Postum
 We carry Postum in stock and recom- mend 1t to our customers; we love to sell it and often give a trial quantity to the faltering to induce them to use this health-giving drink" Name given by Postum Co., Battle Crack Minh-

James W. HoyIe and Boss Fields Are Instantly Killed at Woodward Iron Company
 Furnaces Near Birmingham.
Engine and Two SIag Pots Back Off of SIag Pile and Carry Occupants to Swift Death.

James ". Hoyle and Boss Fields, the former engineer and the latter electrician for the Woodward Iron company at thelr furnaces four miles from Birming- ham, were instantly killed yesterday morning when a switch engine and two slag pots ran off the end of a slag pile and fell forty-five feet, crushing the men beneath them.
 Hoyle was the engineer of the switch engine which ran off the pile, and Fields was in the cab with him. The fireman had just gotten out of the engine to throw a switch and thereby was saved from instant death.
 It seems that the two men in the engine were talking and the engineer did not notice that he was backing too far up the slag pile towards the end of the trestle which holds the rails. One of the hot pots toppled over the edge and dragg- ed the others with it. The distance to the ground was about forty-five feet. Hoyle and Fields were taken from under the engine later
 Hoyle has a family at Menlo, and his remains were taken there. Fields was L young man reared in Jefferson coun- ty. The slag pots and the engine were not damaged much and will be in use in a day or two.

Indian Chief Returns Thanks and Says He Will Have Cup With Him in the Happy Hunt ing Ground.
He Expects to Meet Mayor Drennen and President Krebs There-Indignant About Re- port Made to Government.

Mayor w. M. Drennen sent Chief White Eagle of the Ponca tribe yester- day a handsome silver cup on which was engraved the following incription: ITO White Eagle, Chief of Poncas, from Mayor Drennen, Birmingham, Ala. Mo- vember l. 1902"
 The chief sent Mayor Drennen the fol- lowing message: "It is our custom to give presents when we first go visiting, and I gave you yours the first day we were here. Your present is a nicer one than l expected, and when die this cup and the cane given me by President Krebs will be buried with me, and when we three meet in the happy hunting grounds I will have them with me. I hope you will soon get well.'
 The Indians will tomorrow give their religious dance and mode of worship, their village being open the greater part of the day.
 White Eagle feels very much offended at the official report made to the gov ernment by United States Agent Erwin, which was published yesterday, and makes the following statement through Joseph Miller, who is in charge of the wild west exhibition at the fair grounds:
 My people are, as a rule, straight for ward and honest, and I think this was an injustice to my tribe. I never knew MT. Erwin, nor do any of my people. Out of 5SO of us. we very seldom see one drunk, and I venture to say they are more orderly than the average run of men. He further states the educated ones do not work, and are not industri- ous. This is not true. I am sorry this report was published during our visit to Alabama, and hope the people here will not believe it.''
 MT. Miller says he has lived among the Poncas for years and does not hesi- tate to lend mem money, and says at present he and his brother have about $10,6O0 owing them by the Indians, and that they are honest people and will pay every cent of it, and he further states that they do not even take waive notes on them.
