came SO unexpected and was in
huenced from a source so little an
ticipated that it did not set well
with that certain class who think
that all things should have the
stamp Of their approval. The gift
was secured through the importu>
mites of rather obscure although
talented young lawyer and this did
not suit the other folks who thought
they should have had hand in Sc
curing the gift. However, Mr.
Carnegie was not particularly look
ing for any OF the smart set to
handle his money. Denver should
accept the amount with a little
more grace.

Trade papers make no bones in
speaking of the matter, that when
thing becomes passe in the
east that it is shipped to the west
to be revamped into fashions for the
crude civilization here. Automo-
biles with steam attachment are
looked upon as in very bad taste
in the east, but they are quite the
thing in Denver. The Denver
papers. are making big how
against them and remark that own
ers of this sort of machine might a.
we'll run a steam engine of the mar
row gauge type, equipped with
rubber tires through the thorough
fares Of that city, as to run theil

Merchants who desire to get
next" to the trade of this city,
will soon learn that they can
do so to better advantage by ad-
vertising in the daily papers than
by any other method. Spasmodic
advertisement or advertising on old
lines without describing single
pieces or goods or giving prices,
has little effect upon the intelligent
purchasing public OF today.

The Denver Chamber Of Com
merce has written to this city sev>
eral times to know what it can do
to aid this section OF country. The
Sentinel respectfully urges that it
take opportunity to prevail upon
the Rio Grande system to establish
a live immigration bureau. This
institution would be invaluable to
all western slope points.

A STEADY WORKER.
COFFEE WORKS SLOW BUT SURE.

Many people use coffee day after day without an
idea Of the serious work II does with nerves. stom-
ach. bowels and sometimes with the eyes heart
and kidneys. Its work is done gradually, that is,
the poison affects the centers a little today
and little tomorrow and on. and finally the
nerve cells slowly broken down and then Nature
begins the call for help.
II is n safe proposition that II man or woman
has headache, stomach trouble, or any such all
ments come at intervals something is wrong
with the food drink, and this question should be
investigated carefully, for health is the best cap
ital any one can and willfully breaking it
down Is a piece Of childish folly.
Is easy to leave OF coffee IL one will take Pos
tum Food Coffee. properly made. for Postum has a
delicious coffee favor and a deep seal brown color
which changes to golden brown when cream IL
added and 1t satishes the coffee drinker without
any Of the bad effects Of coffee; on the contrary
the result OF using Postum is the rebuilding of the
broken down centers by the f,Nl elements
contained In II.
Postum is pure food beverage made by scientific
food makers and he depended upon absolutely
for it's 10y and the good results that follow its
use.
TO bring out the favor and food value Postum
be boiled at least IS minutes after the boiling
begins.
