COFFEE TOOK IT.

Robbed the Doctor of His Cunning.
II was compelled to drink some lava
coffee yesterday morning and suffered so

writing you at once.
Il am 81 years old and for a great
many years have been d coffee drinlzer
My nerves finally got into a terrible con-
dition and for about two years L suffered
with sinking spells and was so nervous
that it seemed as though l could hardly
live. l suffered untold iagonies NY heart
would stop and my kidneys gave me no
end of trouble. En- I'D
About SIX months ago gave up coffee
for good and began using Postum I in
sisted on knowing that it was properly
made by being sufficiently boiled, and /
prefer a cup Of rich Postum to Java,
Mocha or any other coffee
My sinking spells have left me, my
head gives me no trouble now, the kid
neys are greatly improved, and, in fact, l
feel great change in my whole body.
1t is sucll~a comfort to be well again.
Il knew a physician in San Antonio who
had become so nervous from the use of
coffee that his hand trembled so badly
that he could not hold a lancet, or even
take a splinter cut. and could scarcely
hold anything in his hand Finally he
quit coffee and began using Postum
Now the doctors nervousness is all gone
and he is in good health" Name given

SERVICE TOO SLOW
ISOLATION WANTS DOUBLE
TRACKS ON MARIA AVE.
PETITION TO CITY COUNCIL
Visitors to Mounds Are Greatly In
cOnvenienCed by Time Lost in
Backing Up for
Return.

Members of the Second Ward Improve
ment association are preparing a petition
to be presented to the council and the
board of park commissioners asking these
bodies to use their efforts TO compel the
street railway company to double track its
street car line to Indian Mounds park and
put in a loop that will do away with the
present method Of backing up the cars
for the return start.
Within possibly half a mile Of the park
entrance, the line is double tracked and
here cars are compelled to wait until the
single track. which covers the remainder
of the distance, is clear of cars. At the
park gates a narrow ''Y" enables the
cars to make the return trip.
AS the line is now arranged there is
always dearth of cars and when the at
tendance is large, the departing crowds
have to either suffer a long wait or fairly
fight their way to a seat Attendants are
generally on hand to prevent this crowd
ing, but their efforts avail little when the
mob is large and wants to get home as
quickly as possible.
With the charging Of the park the ad-
dition Of a new and commodious pavilion
ard the almost complete remodehng Of the
grounds in which are housed the state fish
hatcheries, it is expected that the mounds
will be one of the best patroniZed resorts
in the city this summer For this reason
the Second Ward Improvement associa-
ton is anxious that IL be supplied with
good transportation facilities as quickly
as possible.
The state is now preparing to put a
large force of men to work remOdeling
the fish hatchery grounds and charging
the pools. Considerable money has al
ready been spent in charging the grounds
and nearly 5000 will be used on new
buildings and larger pools.

The new ideas and designs in iron beds
are no less surprising Tor their variety
than for the beauty Of their design.
On every floor the visitor is shown COM
fort in all the allurement of splendid
Davenport touches and easy parlor and
library chairs. There are few suites, the
separate pieces being far more popular.
Besides the heavy chairs and touches,
some of them in solid mahogany, and all

found in New York state. Mr.. Gregg
says the farmers look on the dark side Of
things and seem to have come 20 the con-
clusion that they have little chance in
the competition with the aggressive
West. Mfr. Gregg says:
Several causes have contributed to
the present conditions among the farmers
of New York. First, the land is in most
cases badly run down from oVercropptng
and poor farming methods. Too much
of the profits Of the farm must now be
spent for fertilizers. DefOreStation has
also contributed to the result. Following
the removal Of the trees from the hills

away and left unprodUetive land The
