The vote as finally counted was: Yes 157, no 164-vshowing that the cities had gained one step.
 After that came another debate on the original question of passing the resolu- tion. The debate was joined in by Judge Cowell, of Waterbury, Senator Kefealy, Colonel Ullman and one or two others, and it was evident that the debate was getting wearisome to the delegates.
 Question! Question:" was yelled by a score of voices and it was finally put. An aye and nay vote was taken and the vote was carried apparently by a large majority and the adoption of the report was secured. By it New Haven would have twelve delegates to the con- vention.

=. A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE.
Medicine not Needed in This Cas- e.

Medicine not Needed in This Case.
 It is hard to convince some people that coffee does them an injury! They lay their bad feelings to almost every cause but the true and unsuspected one.
 But the doctor knows; his wide ex- perience has proven to him that to some systems coffee is an insidious poison that uhdermines the health.
 Ask the doctor if coffee is the cause of constipation, stomach and nervous troubles.
 T have been 8 coffee drinker all my life. I am now 42 years old and when taken sick two years ago with nervous prostration, my doctor said that my her. vous system was broken down and that would have to give up coffee, I got so weak and shaky could not work, and reading your advertisement of Postum Food Coffee, l asked my grocer if he had any of it. He said, Yes and that he used it in his family and it was all it claimed to be.
 So quit coffee and commenced to use Postum steadily and found in about two weeks time, I could sleep soundly at night and get up in the morning feel ing fresh and well. In about two months, began to gain flesh. I only weighed 146 pounds when I commenced on Postum and now I weigh 167 and feel better than I did at 20 years of age.
 I am working every day and sleep well at night My two children were great coffee drinkers. but they have not drank any since Postum came into the house. and are far more healthy than they were before." Stewart M. Hall. Fairfield, W. Va.
