A SOLDIERS FOE Knocked Down By Unsuspecteo
 Enemy.

Coffee so affects the brain and nerves that proper nutrition is interfered with and the final ending is frequently nerv- ous prostration.
 During the Spanish-American war, I went with my troop to Chickamauga," !" says Lieut.. J. G. Talbott, of Springfield. Ills. If there is any place on earth where one drinks more coffee than an other it is in the army. It is a soldier s back bone and l can assure you that I drank my share After several months of hard drilling my health gave out, the chief cause being coffee, bad food, over exertion and heat
 On the advice of the surgeon, I ten dered my resignation and w.,h my heart full of regret and my nervous system shattered. I returned home. Almost the first thing the doctor whom I consulted advised me was to quit coffee That was the first intimation l had that coffee had anything to do with my condition. The next thing was what shall I drink?
 My wife's mother used your Postum Food Coffee and knew how to make it right, so I tried 1t and srew very fond of it. My nervous trouble soon left; my old time health came back, and that fall l gained so in flesh that the boys on re- turning after muster out harlly knew mo Quitting coffee and using Postum did monders for me.

 An experimental section of street road bed is being lala in Murray street. be- tween Broadway and Church street, for test as to It's worth for hesvy trucking.
 General Roy Stone formerly of the De- paltment of Highways fn Washington. is the father of the idea, and the work is going on under his surerivision. The rails ere about three-eighths of an inch in thickness and about twelve inches wide There is a slight depression on the sur face ir order to keep the wheels of vchi- cles using 1t from running off. The rails form an oblong with enc side taken from it. The roadbed is of crushed stone filled in with small white pebles and packed solid. The rails are laid flush with the paving blocks. The distance between rails is AZ feet on the inside and 61R feet outside measurement. This compass will give rolling space to the wheels of all ve- hicles. There are not more than half dozen trucks in the city with broader wheel gauge than Is given by the new steel rails.
 Murray street was selected by Gen eral Stone because of the great amount of heavy trucking that passes over it, and so that his experiment may be put 10 the SeVereSt or tests.
 It is said for the roadway that 1t will relieve at least one-half of the power re- quired to haul trucks over the granite blocked streets. One of the features is it's great help to uphill going. there be- ing no ruts to halt horse in its draw ing power.
 The section now under way will be completed in a week or ten days If the experiment proves a good one other sec tions will be laid in parts of the city where there is much heavy trucking.
 Major B. F. Jones, United States army, is the engineer of the work. John Co., croft is directly in charge of the work of construction.
 The experiment is being watched close 1y by representatives of automobile com panies with a view to determining it's worth for the new automobile trucks and for vehicles for passenger carrying
