TO Be RELIEVED
OF BANKRUPT toy.
Business Men to Place Mr..
Strause on His Feet
Again.

AS the result of plans now being de-
veloped in business circles here. Mr..
Leon L. Strause will be relieved of bank
uIptcy and will be placed upon his feet
again; the creditors will receive a much
larger percentage than they would have
done stherwise, and there will be no In
terruption Of the improvement at Fifth
and Main Streets.
Every detail of the plan has not been
worked out and the matter is not entire
in shape for publication. Still. the move
ment suggested by several of the larger
creditors is on and it has a reasonable
show for a successful issue. Mr.. Strause
will be- relieved of large part OF MS
Indebtedness and will be permitted to
return 10 business again He will be
no longer bankrupt. The business IN
which he will engage. however. VIII not,
it is understood, be the tobacco business.
One cause for the failure was the ais-
.integrati ton of the export trade with Eng
land incident to the formation Of the I'M
.perial Tobacco Company. Mr. Strause
was largely interested in this trade.
While it is matter of no little lmpor-
lance to all concerned that by virtue OF
the new plans for Mr. Strause, his credit
crs will get a much larger percentage
than under the bankrupt proceedings. the
feature of chief interest to the communi-
ty at large is the continuation Of the work
at Fifth and Main Streets. The devel-
op,nent of this property is one OF the
most important business propositions now
before the city and twill be good news
to all to learn that there will be no per-
manent Interruption.
IF the proposed arrangements go
through the company in which Mr.
strause had $4,000. will be enabled to push
on with the work as rapidly as it has
been begun.

feeling Of nausea. and these symptoms
would persist until I had drunk a guam
tity OF coffee. At first, I did not asso-
ciate these symptoms with the habit Of
coffee drinking I thought my system
must be run down and I felt glad that
coffee, instead Of prescribed drugs would
relieve the weakness. Like many people,
did not reason from cause 10 effect
About this time I had an elderly nurse
