MUST BE SHOWN.

Coffee Drinkers Require Proof
 When persons insist on taking some kind Of food or drink that causes dis ease it is not fair to blame a Doctor for not curing them.
 Coffee keeps thousands of people sick in spite of all the Doctor can do to cure tHem. There is but one way to get well. That is to quit coffee abso- lutely: a great help will be to shift over to Postum Food Coffee.
 A case Of this kind is illustrated by Mrs. r.. Kelly. 233-Sth Ave. Newark, x. J.. who says. "I have been ailins for about eight years with bilious trouble and indigestion. Every doctor told me to give up coffee. laughed at the idea of coffee hurting me, until about three years ago ! was taken very bad and had to have doctor attend me reg ularly.
 The doctor refused to let me have coffee, but prescribed Postum Food Coffee. ! soon got to making it so well that I could not tell the difference in taste between Postum and the com mon coffee
 "I began to improve right away and have never had bilious spell since giving up coffee and taking on Postum. When l started l weighed 1O9 pounds. now I weigh 13O. My friends ask what has made the change and, of course, I tell them it was leaving off coffee and taking up Postum.
 "I know husband will never go back to the old-fashioned coffee again. You can use my name if you print this letter for I am not ashamed to have the public know just what I have to say about Postum and what it has done for me"

CUBAN RECIPROCITY.

Washington. Feb. 1.-The Cuban reciprocity problem is gain before th= republican members of the ways and means committee today. who were iu private conference for two hours. then adjourninS until tomorrow without reaching an agreement. It developed today that an informal vote had been taken early in the conferences, not on any specific proposition. but on the gen erai question as to whether anything should be done. resulting in an express sion favorable to action as long as existing American industries are not endangered by the extent of the con sessions.
 After tcday's conference it was stated With much dehniteness by those in q position to know that there will be an agreement later. and the belief is eX- rress-l that the concession to Cuba will be about 90 per cent. probably as a rebate.

EASTERN STORM
 SEASONS SECOND
New York's Worst Visitation in Years.
 Washington Is Isolated

New York Feb. 2I-Suow followed by rain and sleet created in this city and vicinity the most disaErceabIe weather conditions known in many years. Dur ing the early hours of the day a heavy wet snow fell in great flakes. This con- diticn prevailed for several hours. Shortly after noon the snow turned into steady drizzle of rain that continued with intermittent periods of sIeet all afternoon and far into the night Much Of the srfow that was left from the re- cent blizzard was quickly converted into slush and tonight the streets are inches deep. The sidewalks throughout the city are covered and the crossings arc almost impossible The work of the street cleaning department is un- done and the city's streets are in worse condition than before the thousands of snow shovelers went to work after the blizzard.
 During the evening the temperature dropped enough to turn the downpour of rain into coating of ice over build ings and trees. In Central park the big trees creaked under the weight of thick ice. Many branches fell. This condi- tion prevailed through the other parks in the city.
 Traffic on the Brooklyn bridge is all most at standstill. Heavy trucks could scarcely he moved. even when four heavy horses to each did their best to get foothold on tue slippery road way.
 Street ear traffic everywhere is much interrupted. but the greatest difficulty is experienced on the cruss-toyvn horse car lines. Four horses were attached t1 each of these cars and had hard work getting along. Many electric light wires were broken by the weight of the coating of ice and many others hung low. The Fifth avenue sidewalk along Central park, where the trees oVe-han;s :t. is almost impassable, owing to the branches, which are bent almost to the earth. "pf
 Jersey City was hit hard. and by h o'clock in the evening tha city was practically in darkness and there was every indication that the electric serv- ice. which is wholly, overhead will be entirely out of order by morning Elec- tric wires are down in every part of the

Washingtor, Feb 21.-It is estimated ct the state department that fifteen days have now elapsed since the money for Miss Stones ransom was paid over to the agents of the briSands. At least five days have elapsed beyond the time fixed in the stipulation to place her in the hands of her friends. There is no explanation of the delay.
 It ia hoped that physical conditions, such as heavy snows and adverse weather. may account for the failure to secure her delivery. Officials are loath 10 believe that there has been breach Of faith on the part of the brigands. but even if this were so. they do not regard themselves as blameworthy for having trusted them.

From the first the United States government has been adverse to pay ing the ransom, but in response to appeals from every quarter. IL reluct- antly authorized Mir. Leisnman to deal with the brigands.
 However. if it turns out that the bI igands have broken faith and that they have taken ransom money and spirited the captives away again, or killed them. then there will be no fur ther attempt to deal with the briEands on the part of the United States gov errment but it's entire power will he directed upon Turkey and Bulgaria to procure swift and certain extermina- tion of the brigands, regardless of cost or effort.
